From their new album No Fear of Time, releasing May 3rd, Black Star recruits Black Thought and Madlib on lead single “Mineral Mountain.”
Black Star has reconnected, and they’ve brought Black Thought and Madlib along for the ride. The duo, comprised of Yasiin Bey (formerly Mos Def) and Talib Kweli, joins Black Thought with production from Madlib on new single “Mineral Mountain” from their upcoming sophomore album No Fear of Time.
Last week, the duo confirmed that No Fear of Time will release on May 3rd exclusively on podcast platform Luminary, where Bey and Kweli co-host podcast The Midnight Miracle with Dave Chappelle. Last May, the duo released a surprise track towards the end of The Midnight Miracle episode “Gladiator Circus World.”
