Mos Def – “History” feat. Talib Kewli (Video)

Now this is how you make a tightly budgeted video. “Supermagic” was a return to form for Mighty Mos but the video left much to be desired. History’s video treatment tells a subtle story of Mos’s rise to fame from his BK neighborhood. Kweli tags along for the ride and his appearance will likely make heads yearn for a new Black Star album. All in all it’s got some nice direction and the images fit the song’s climate pretty well. Did I mention the song is great too? The video’s a good way to spend 2 minutes and change so give it a click.
