Yasiin Bey (f/k/a Mos Def) has finally given fans more than just a teaser of his collaborative album with Mannie Fresh, OMFGOD.
At a concert in Phoenix, Arizona, Bey performed two tracks from the highly-anticipated project.
The first song is titled “Black Jesus,” which prominently features Mos’ singing on the hook, and more classic emceeing in the verses. The track switches between soulful and hard-hitting.
The next track Yasiin premiered was “Young Love,” which features a more thumping bass than the first cut.
OMFGOD is expected to drop digitally this year. Earlier this year, Mannie Fresh confirmed to HipHopDX that the 10-track LP has already been completed and is being mixed.
Watch the video of the performance below (spotted at HipHopWired):

can’t wait dammit
happy zombie jesus day for me
this is better than chocolate eggs
Can’t wait to hear what these two sound like together. You guys should checkout http://www.thegrandreport.com too, they usually have some good reads as well
ALTHOUGH IT’S KINDA UNFAIR TO JUDGE IT BASED ON THAT CLIP, THAT SOUNDED LIKE KANYE TYPE OF MUSIC.
sound like a dope track!!!! even with all the noise distortion
I don’t know… Ecstatic is a personal favorite of mine. I think it’s going to be difficult for Mos to top his last project.
MOS DEF IS A PURE EMCEE. SEVERELY UNDERRATED. HOWEVER, HE SHOULD DROP MANNIE FRESH AND BUILD A SUPERGROUP WITH BIRDMAN. HOW ABOUT THE NAME OF “STUNNER BEY?””
How about no….
CANNOT WAIT FOR THIS ALBUM
Be paid weekly and earn like a boss! I just bought a great Mazda MX-5 from having earned $7126 this past 4 weeks and $10k past-month. Without any doubt this is the easiest and most comfortable job Ive ever had. I began this 6 months ago and right away was bringing in more than $83 per/h. Heres what Ive been doing Rich45.com_
Mos Def and Mannie Fresh wtf! Just reunite with Talib and Hi Tek and maybe all 3 of them can be somewhat relevant again, Mos Def fuckin with young money, what a clown
Mannie Fresh is not with Young Money, idiot…he was working with Kanye on the Cruel Summer album, so it makes sense that this collab came about. Plus in 07 he said he wanted to work with Fresh cause he respects the New Orleans bounce elements in his songs. AND on top of that the nigga lives in New Orleans so this project makes complete sense
