Yasiin Bey

The artist formerly known as Mos Def—and before that, Dante Terrell Smith—recently confirmed that the reunion album by his legendary duo with Talib Kweli, Black Star is finished—the first in two decades, produced by none other than the widely lauded beatsmith-king Madlib himself. Until then, crank up the classics: Bey performs from his celebrated Black on Both Sides here at this Midtown gig.
