HELL YEAH!!! So with Black Star<\/a> better known as Mos Def<\/a> and Talib Kweli<\/a> having made a few new tracks in the last couple of years, the rumours of them having a follow-up to ’98’s Mos Def & Talib Kweli Are Black Star<\/em>, are REAL. Talib announced in an interview with MTV that rumors are true and will be coming in 2012.<\/p>\n

“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.”<\/em><\/p>\n

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