It's not radio-play hip hop though, it's much better. Mos Def's new album is very good. i picked it up on Acq.. (ahem)iTMS last week.

It's good. It's no Blackstar. I want Blackstar.
so much on my mind that it can’t recline
Blastin holes in the night til she bled sunshine
Breathe in, inhale vapors from bright stars that shine
Breathe out, weed smoke retrace the skyline
Heard the bass ride out like an ancient mating call
I can’t take it y’all, I can feel the city breathin
Chest heavin, against the flesh of the evening
Sigh before we die like the last train leaving
\
'swearin' you got pull when the only pull you got is the wool over your eyes'
hell yea.

On a semi-related note, Mos Def will play Ford Prefect in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy movie, which recently wrapped up filming.

I KNOW he's an actor. I like Mos Def. I'm just commenting on the clever casting choice.
I, in my minds eye, would have never expected that casting choice. But that's why they don't pay me the big bucks...

Glad you liked it. Hope you like the ass more than the guns! Both are ubiquitous in the world of hip hop, so it's not too much of a derail.
