Mos Def - The Ecstatic

Review by Finn Scott-Delany

Dante Terrell Smith seemed to have lost all interest in the rap game. Though his acting career could never be considered a vanity »

upfront uk copies and at a much cheaper price to the us version. 'and dont call it a comeback' sings mos on the black star reunion track history, but its hard not too, after years in the wilderness releasing so so records the ecstatic is the real follow up to his debut album all those years ago. it fuses dynamic hip-hop, bollywood beats and almost ed banger style breaks and with only two guest spots on the whole lp (kweli & slick rick) it is without doubt the best hip hop album released this year.the boogieman is back.
