iTunes Review
Mos Def is an anomaly. Most emcees rap to live. Mos Def lives to rap. Black on Both Sides is a testament to multiple "selves": self-control, self-esteem, self-awareness. He enlists nine producers to get this vision across, yet maintains an enviable level of focus and consistency. Give credit to Mos Def's distinct, coffee-flavored flow, heightened by poetics that encourage deep thought. "Hip Hop," "Know That," and "Mathematics" are all expertly crafted lessons from the new school. "Got" is a warning to those who floss; you could get taken. "Rock & Roll" dispenses knowledge about rock's origins, culminating in a furious mosh pit.

Best
by NorthroaderMaybe the best rap album ever
CLASSIC
by DnmavsThere is nothing less to describe this album. Good beats and great lyrics. It just is.
Great Album
by ballin!!!!!!This album has everything a devoted rap listener wants, and more. Favorites: Mathematics, UMI Says, Know That, Miss Fat Booty, Brooklyn and Speed Law. Rock N Roll is kind of garbage and I don't think it should have been on this album.
