Our First Time Hearing Mos Def's - Ms. Fat Booty (Reaction Video) 

Mathematics-Mos Def

Mos def- black on both sides one of the best hip hop albums of all time

You gotta do Mathematics, New World Water, and Hip Hop

Ahhhhh. Now ya'll learning....Check out Mathematics...

The Definition- Mos Def and Talib Kweli is quintessential HipHop in its purest form. One of my favorite songs/music videos of all time.

I absolutely love this song. Story telling at its finest!

Mos Def is lyrically inclined and one of the best at it!!! He's a Goat, respect it!!!!!

Mos Def best movie is DEFINITELY Something The Lord Made where he plays doctor Vivian Thomas.

Brooklyn, All Day-Every Day!

The hold album is dope another wave of Brooklyn NY hip hop in the 90s it was the best!

Whole album is a Banger

Y'all should react to Dead Prez - Hip-Hop It's a classic song, it was used in Chapelle Show as the intro, and it has the absolute nastiest beat ever put to tape

You guys like great storytelling try... Spice - One - 187 Proof, 187 Pure and Trigger Happy.. Geto Boys - Cereal K and one of the GREATEST crew songs ever Geto Boys - Bring It On..

Mos def in a movie called something the lord made me is his best role crazy good movie

Young bosses...when you open up the Mos Def box, you are entering into an entire world of hip hop artistry that only a chosen few have the right to be placed. This song...the layers to it are still light years ahead of the majority of "artists" out here. The storytelling factor is mind blowing and the sample is brilliant. But this who Mos is. Do yourself a favor and delve into the Blackstar era with Talib Kweli, Hi Tech, De La...all of the greats in this genre....Your life will never be the same.

My fave Mos Def song. Check out "Oh No" - Mos Def, Pharaoh Monche, and Nate Dogg. Also, Definition by Blackstar, which is Mos Def and Talib Kweli.

react to. "HIP HOP" -by DEAD PREZ! AND DO THE REMIX WIT BUSTA RHYMES!!! SICK!!

Yeah, JID used it in Surround Sound and it went viral when XG member Cocona rapped on it on Galz Xypher

Mos Def & Talib Kweli - "Definition" will make you scream Lord Have Mercy!!

About the Aretha Frankin sample - as a condition of using the song, she mandated no cursin'.

Umi Says and Mathematics on this album. Most of this album is a 9-10.

Mos best role was in Carmen with Beyonce

Also check out Mos Def in the movie Italian Job

Way before Hip-Hop morphed to Hit-Pop. Beat nasty as Shaq's feet. Mos definitely with verses wicked as three sixes. Still bump on this ruckus. Bass grim reaper how it murders my car speakers. #BeastOfTheEast #ElDjangoFlaco

I'm gonna put this album in my hip-hop top 10. I'm of that era, was in 10th grade at the time. We were spoiled for choice with great rappers but this is a complete project on the highest level. Umi Says was the vibey hit for the earthy types, Mathematics had the message and the DJ Premier beat, and May-December is an incredible instrumental track. Jazz legend Weldon Irvine contributed to the production as well.

The beautiful thing about early hip hop is that there were all types of rappers, styles, and subject matter, and many of us loved it all. The idea that rap ain't rap if it's not gangster (even if some of the best is) is just not true. It's all good really, but skillful wordplay should always deserve some type of recognition.

Ok we live... Good Shit... SALUTE

The entire album is AMAZING. I'm glad y'all enjoyed my favorite rapper.

Mos BEST Movie Role is "Something The Lord Made" ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UmiRohBSy5Y.htmlsi=4QLeCHiKA_aYwyDJ

Check out Brooklyn by mos

BLACKSTAR!!! Most Def and Talib. Their only album before they split.

I suggest Hip Hop, or New world water, or mathematics or Marvelous Time, or Priority from Mighty Mos Def. Peace 🙏

Here’s a sleeper… Poor Righteous Teachers ft KRS One. “Conscious Style” Wise Intelligence is just another example of how deep the 90’s was with talented MC’s

Watch....Be Kind Rewind.. Mos Def and Jack Black

Speed Law off the same album is amazing. Actually the next song after Ms. Fat Booty. A 🔥back to back

Yo, "Black on Both Sides" was my vote for hip hop album of the year in '99. Y'all gotta react to the rest of this joint! "Mathematics", "New World Water", "Speed Law"... Damn, just react to the whole album!

Why do reaction videos discuss dates, timelines and albums when they can google the ish? Just react and don't pretend to be so damn ignorant!

Young fellas, if you are serious about getting into MOS DEF, check out his collab with Talib Quali! Black Star

Mos Def is a Rap GOD. Black on Both Side is a CLASSIC album straight fire and he dropped plenty more. including one of the most beautiful HipHop songs ever made UMI SAYS ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vntLKOd9saI.html ...you also have to listen to -- WHAT'S BEEF it's hard AF and make sure you REACT to his original CLASSIC solo version ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-q8Fl2Vlrqi8.html even tho Mos did a LIVE version with Talib Kweli as the group Black Star that is also a Classic -- maybe do both back two back? do the Live version then the solo version -- it's worth it believe me.

You should check out the "Get By" remix by Talib Kweli feat Mos Def, Jay Z, Kanye West and Busta Rhymes

Lost Boyz: Renee. Same topic, but dark.

Speed Law Mos Def cool track. Got the ODB album cover shirt 🔥

Hold up! An ODB shirt?? Have you seen the light? Lol!

I just found you guys recently and been watching all the old school hip-hop ya'll been reviewing.. I dig the channel & since I'm from NYC and grew up in that era of Hip-Hop I thought to give ya'll some direction. So, Mos Def is a top 10 MC of all-time.. (even tho his catalog is small but that's how great he is) but you need to check out his first album with Talib Kweli as the group Black Star. Unbelievable chemistry between them & since you like the creativity from him, it really hits on that album. Whole album is dope.. and the beats go hard.. but if I have to pick one song from it for ya'll to review, go with "Definition" but I want you to play "Re:Definition" with it bc they mix into each other. P.S. I think you might recognize the sample from another MC you go hard for... Peace

Yall need to watch the movie 'Something the Lord Made'. That is REALLY his best role. Dude is an incredible actor. I don't know why he hasn't been in anything recent.

Bro was capping when he acted like he didn't know JID sampled this

Check out Guru/Chaka Khan "Watch what you say"....

If you listen to Black on Both Sides you'll hear Mr. Ni##@ which is a great song to react to, but outside of that album I'd suggest Travelin' Man

My mom use to play One Step by Aretha Franklin years ago, l heard this sampled and was instantly stuck on this joint

Makes me think... Do they even do storytelling anymore? 🤔

This reaction was smooth operator. Instant sub. Glorious!

He is affiliated with black morish nation, not hebrew Israelites

Check out the reggae artist Gregory Isaacs then you’d understand why he said what he said

Did I miss somethin? U trashed ODB now u rockin that shirt

It's not his best role but it is among his best, he got nominated by the guy who invented the artificial heart or something. Has two Oscar nominations and 1 emmy

Yo I still bump this. It was cool to see yall hear it for the first time. Yo you gatta to find the blend him and Aretha doing this

One of the best most complete albums ever! Mos Def is a legend

U guys need to do a reaction to "Renee" from Lost Boyz

Fam holding that mic is major pause.....

Superb reaction 👍 and he is definitely one of the Goats.

Do more from the greatest to ever touch the mic Nas. Do nas memory lane and nas take it in blood.

Check out the movie The Italian Job

How does old head not heard this? Scripted

Another great story Kool G Rap, on the run

Honestly, Mos Def is Super Dope. BUT I think you guys will be disappointed by his whole catalog. He sometimes gets experimental like Andre3000. He early works with Talib Kweli are easier to listen to. The were In a group called BlackStar with DJ Hi-Tek. Check out their song Definition. It’ll give you the same type of feeling you had about Ms. Fat Booty, and give that late 90s Brooklyn Flavor.

there is a Part 2 two this song with Ghostface on it

Black on both sides is a classic

Also he was in Brown Sugar

React to HipHop by Mos Def

Mos Def "Mathematics"

Classic!

Jayne Kennedy was FINE

Chappelle Show anyone?

Do twista celebrity overnight

Mos aka Yasmin Bey

Feel everyone should be raised on Black Starr. also Renee by The Lost Boyz

That's crazy.

Hip Hop - Mos Def

The Aretha Franklin song is One Step Ahead and this song resurrected interest in it. There's actually a live performance from the 60s on RU-vid. It also runs for a minute or so in the movie Moonlight. I played the breaks off this cd, Black On Both Sides, and Ms. Fat Booty was the lead-off single. Ran it with Blackstar.

"Hip Hop" - Mos Def

One of my favorite songs by him. Listen to the whole Black Star...Mos Def Talib Kwali and Common

royce da 59 tabernacle

His best movie is titled "Something the Lord made." 2004

He Is Moorish American

Great reaction 🎤🎤🎤🎤
