If Mos Def Aint In Your Top 10, I Cant Take You Seriously

[Apollo Kid]

Bumped this heavy in 1998


Mos' verse on Thieves in the Night is top 5 all time. No debate.

 

[Kyle C. Barker]

He coulda been a goat contender

My sentiments as well.

He seemed like he was on that path early in his career

 

[Dafunkdoc_Unlimited]

No room for him on my Top 10.

​

 

[Blankthawtz]

[mobbinfms]

Mos was prolly my favorite rapper between 98 - 2000. He fell off something serious tho.

I think he still woulda been at it but it turned out his real passion was acting

I haven't heard this joint in so long. It was MY shyt!! My favorite part was always

"They celebrate to my jams in foreign lands,
even ya mans in Japan know who I am
Minasan! Make everybody out in Nippon say Ichiban!!
Make yard man know where ya get it from!"

and now that I've actually been to Japan that shyt just resonates even more with me

Mos Def had the biggest fall-off I've seen of any great rapper. He had top 20 potential for sure.

If it was 99/00, this thread would hold weight.

nikka squandered his career

 

[Mr. Negative]

Prolly in my top 25,

The Ecstatic still one of the best overall albums of the last 10 years, all genres, though
