Mos Def’s Favorite Hip Hop Album

San Francisco Bay View’s JR caught up with Mos Def for a Q&A where the rapper revealed his favorite hip hop album was De La Soul’s ‘The Grind Date’. “The greatest Hip Hop album ever … ever … ever,” he said. “Classic forever. The greatest Hip Hop album ever recorded. When it was recorded, they were coming up on almost 20 years in Hip Hop, where people come and go like nothing … and surviving all of these trends? It’s amazing. It’s triumphant. These brothas really care about us as people; they care about Black people.”
