Yasiin Bey recently debuted his Negus “listening installation” at the Brooklyn Museum. He’s also been working on a new Black Star album alongside Talib Kweli and Madlib, which he recently declared was coming “soon, soon!”
Although the album will ultimately see the light of day sooner than later, Bey still has a handful of other projects and unreleased music that he may or may not ever share.
In an interview with Vibe, Bey revealed that he has unreleased music with MF DOOM. After being asked about the status of his record with Mannie Fresh, Bey said:
"All of that is on deck, and you know what? It’s interesting because it’s similar to the process with negus. I have these really special projects. I still have them — Black Star, Mannie Fresh, stuff with me and DOOM on the low. I have stuff with me and Madlib, I work with Glasper and Trill."
