I doubt anyone cares, BUT, I'm one of the only hardcore mos def stans on here, so I decided to make an appreciation thread for him, in which the FEW stans can comment and talk about his epicness to me, Mos is one of the best rappers alive today. He EMBODIES hip hop. When I listen to his music, I'm heavily inspired by the topics that he talks about...his lyrics actually make you think. He's struggled to sale, because he's not mainstream. He never will be. He's an artist who chooses to not talk about the easy topics that all rappers today talk about, ASS, DRUGS, BITCHES, HOES, MONEY, ARROGANCE, etc. Mos def really hasnt ever made a song like that. Kanye west may be an epic producer, and Jay Z may be the SWAG KING, but they cannot touch Mos Def. Sorry. He exceeds them in every possible way. He's just...amazing.
