“I am working to put out a Black Star project for people to buy sometime next year,” Talib said. “Me and Mos [Def] are focused on independence and quality of sound. We’re really into a Madlib/Dilla thing right now. Anything you hear from us is probably going to be that type of sound. And it’s about independence, so we are trying to find out the right mediums to get the songs out. When you heard ‘Fix Up’ on Colbert, it wasn’t even mixed; it was something we recorded a week before. Now we’re at the mixing stage of the song and we are going to put that out ourselves. We have a bunch of songs recorded. We are just trying to figure out the best way to release them, whether it’s going to be one by one, EP or album. Right now, the plan is to release ‘Fix Up’ and then Yasiin is working on a Yasiin Bey Presents project and then we’ll see how it goes.”

On October 05, 2011 they performed a world premier exclusive on The Colbert Report with their new track “FIX UP”.

I got to see Black Star earlier this year at the HMV Apollo in Hammersmith and it blew me away. Definitely the best on-stage chemistry I have seen and I bet many have been waiting for a new album for a long time. I’m backing it to live up their first album (finger crossed).

I got some footage on my digital camera with great sound and will get around to putting that up at some stage.
