Mos Def - Habitat Lyrics

Great song,masterpiece album

Mai gat

I’m a pirate on an island seeking treasure known as silence

It ain’t where u from it’s where u at🔥📠🔥📠

Best song on the album!

20 dislikes were from idiots.

Mos Def at London Astoria in May 2000 live with a full band performing the ''Black on Both Sides'' LP of his. Still the best live hip hop show that I've ever been to and I've been to many. Too many. Word Up to the brother.

First time I heard this thought it was "some place where we can f*ck"

Just revisited this song while working outside in the beautiful blue sky and warm sunshine and the flow, the singing, the music, and the imagery he painted here made me feel GOOD!!

groovy song

This album is so underrated I swear. Such a great piece of work.

this song is outkastish

we set out on our travels..we do the best we can.....so dope. if he woulda came out today...he would have his own tv show (see Childish Gambino)  so ahead of his time. his acting skills was dope too

The Vegan King I remember the few appearances he had on Chappelle's Show. Dude is funny as hell. Cornrow Wallace LOL

Mos flows on a track like no there. From singing to an all out lyrical assault....he just be playin with us. So easy....

SO
GOOD
Mos Def one the best to ever do it

production is so tight. listening on bose speakers and i feel like im at a coffee house show.

This song makes me smell mangoes with its tropical ill flow.

@HulkHooligann Let's keep the trolls out of this part of youtube please.

@HulkHooligann somenoe obviously doesnt appreciate good music. check out some wayne, maybe that will please you fool.

@HulkHooligann hahahahaha

@illshadow1 you can boil 'em down and make kind of a tea/soup. Not the nicest way of taking them but at least you don't have to chew that shit before ya swallow.

@Collinmrandomnumbers naming each of them cause they all went hard when they soloed

@etk1995 this whole album is dope

@15VCfan mushroom tea you boil the mushrooms

@etk1995 I can Mathematics :P

sex love and money

the best !

@queendee919

I've listened to "Love" numerous times. Good song but not even in the top twenty among my favorite Mos tracks.

@Ginga just go check out his song love and truly listen to his words i think that's one of his best

@CoolCumber187

Agreed.

@Ginga well i havent heard every song but mathematics is defo my fav of his its just a sick song from a sick album!

@CoolCumber187

Easily? I'm a huge Mos fan and as much as I love "Mathematics", I wouldn't easily take it over a number of other tracks.

@etk1995 mathematics is easily his best

my dad would love

@nastynas373 Thanks! I didn't think of the production.
Seems like Eminem has become too old to stay any good. He seems to forget what he's talking about in the middle of his songs and ends up wandering off into recounting his sexual exploits. His voice has changed into a high-pitched artificial sputter. He even looks old: his nose and ears have gotten really big, and he's squinting all the time like he can't see shit.
Sorry, I realized that a while ago and have been bursting to say it since.

@jmarrvin uh ok. i'll ramble them off. his old shit was produced mostly by himself, dre, or some other talented producers like Bass Brothers/Mel Man. his last (& worst) album was produced by about 15 producers, most of them commercially targeted, therefore the sound of the album isn't even coherent, and the songs dont fit together. also, he used to dress and act like himself, now he dresses like some white abercrombie model. Recovery lyrics were garbage and uninspiring btw. lil wayne, rihanna<<

@nastynas373 Oh come on. You must have SOMETHING I can use.

@jmarrvin oh, thought your comment was disagreeing with me lol. but i wouldn't bother, you can't change an idiots mind. The 90's Eminem would beat the shit out of the new Eminem

@jmarrvin its all in my opinion of course. to me, his first 3 albums were raw, innovative, lyrical, & came at a time when he had a hard life so the music he was making was so real (he was addicted to drugs, and hated his ex-wife). he made music because it was his outlet & he loved it. Em's not making music for the same reasons anymore. when he collaborated w/ rihanna, he sounded just like everyone else on the radio, & his lyrics are so much weaker than they were 10 years ago, etc

@nastynas373 Can you elaborate why his new stuff is bad? I've been "debating" on the Recovery videos and I'm running out of good points. As you can see, this argument has been continuing for a LOOOOONG time. These people can't tell the difference between when they're correct and when they're just humiliating themselves.

The beat is the beatiful artistic cover of a book and the lyrics are the poetic words within.

mos def is sooooo dope lol man its these dudes named "Good Vocation" that did a song to his beat...and it was the best remake i have ever heard...real talk...check it out yall word up....these dudes are next coming outta chicago

juz type "Good Vocation - Lord Have Mercy"

mos def nigga!

im gonna have to agree. Eminem's Infinite, SSLP, and MMLP are classic. his next 2 albums were average, and his new stuff is garbage

@Merkairy Calm your tits.
Music equates to sound and the lyrics within the music are like words on a book.

@Desperados98 Biggie was good because he had a flow that could paint a picture in your mind if you actually listened to his music. That is why his music is so great, pac and biggie are in the same tier of rap.

@MegaSammich Sharp man, very sharp :)

@MegaSammich Lmao

@AnthonyPellino
all the guy raps about is not wanting to pay child support

@Collinmrandomnumbers
doom isnt in wu tang

@fahadutch no lupe fiasco

lol

We also have to thank Chris Brown for whooping Rihanna's ass....

Chris Brown.... I salute you sir

Mos Def - Beauty in the Dark (Music video by SOSA REAL)

@fahadutch HAHAHA Mos, Doom and Wu

oh manm, i love this track

@Collinmrandomnumbers and mos def as well, and he didnt mention rza

@Collinmrandomnumbers DOOM was mentioned too,lol

don't forget nas , who keep it always real....

@c4mac11 ...kid cudi is ok man matter fact better than most rappers these days :/

this one of Mos's realest tracks rite here!

This song makes me think of Space Jam

6 people dickride lil wayne

I dunno how niggas can dislike this shit, Def one of the nicest cats doing it.

I hate when I go on a DOOM, Common, Blu or Monch video and the mo' fucker's got like (especially Blu, check him out if y'all don't already know) 100 000 plays. The more poetic cats stay gettin' over looked for some reason.

Search Eddie Pesos "North of Death" and "Hayley" Puerto Rock kid from Philly droppin' ill joints on the mic.

nobody's mentioned aesop rock or el-p.

@eddymacable you're obviously here because you agree with it being good - all i'm sayin is there is no point having arguments about your favourite rappers, just enjoy the track.

@motitamegs lol how can you say that quality is an opinion and that there is no right or wrong and then turn around and say that this is quality

Why are you guys going on with some ridiculous dribble about who the greatest rapper is and getting annoyed about the responses? There is no wrong or right, everyone has personal taste and it's never going to be exactly the same as the next mans. Deal with it.

Just shut up, sit back and enjoy some quality hip-hop.

@Woobsterbamf Who the fuck cares about a football team?

That's that Skyscraper Lampin' Soul Sound right here!

@espChris93 I TOTALLY agree LOL!!

@souflondon1 True my man!!

Cats like Mos Def, Pac, Dre, De La Soul, and Immortal Technique still exist. Lil Wayne and that yung money crew isn't true rap. Don't get me wrong, all music has it's purpose but Metaphors and Similies aren't what rap is bout. this shit is real. There's still some true rap cats out there who do it from the heart and intellectual mind. Long live true rap!

@souflondon1 wheres AZ at? lolz

@heyheyyesyes LOL sorry man I can't get with this current era of hip hop where cats like soulja boy, g-unit, & wacka flacka flame reigns!

when people think they know hiphop they need to listen to different eras, to understand the impact you have to understand the polarities of the people, some for service to self, some for service to others, the latter are where hiphops real strength lies, but the service to self rappers have made the most money and hedonistic punks that follow their ways

@pockbrook lol im now listening to Biggie all the time; i was wrong hes amazing he has a crazy fucking flow but Tupac remains the best! yes recovery sucks its too much comercial and overrated; but Eminem remains one of the best with all the sick songs & freestyles he made ;
Eminem, Pac & Biggie 4EVER

@pockbrook lol dont worry for me, I know whats good ( Em, Tupac, Nas, Mobb Deep, Rakim, Mos Def, Wu Tang...) and what sucks ( lil wayne, drake, akon...) all these pussies.. im just sayin that Biggie made just a few fucking good songs to me ( like Ready 2 die and Everyday Struggle which r amazing) I just dont get why ppl like him so much thats all. when i said he had no talent it was exaggerated i know

@kiddanpunjabi

listen i know Eminem fucked up; hes songs were fuckin better in the past but he still has the craziest flow ever, hes the best and ever will be, i dont get why ppl like biggie so much, he made just 2albums and has no talent i mean he used to rap slow, hes voice was not that good... i like just 3or4songs of him. 2Pac was like 10.000000times better than biggie, thats my opinion

@Desperados98 Are u fckn stupiid?? Ur gonna put eminem in tha list? BACK IN THE DAY eminem was gudd but styll not enuff to call him tha best all time. And then u say BIGGIE SUCKS?????????? Do u kno how much biggie has contributed to the rap scene? He fckn spit rhymezz till he died while Eminems countin his "young money" alreadyy. Hav u heard eminem today wit these new songz.... no love, love the way you lie, not afraid? He's caught in the mainstream hustle!! BIGGIE FOREVAA

@souflondon1 i agree but how can u forget Eminem??? and Biggie sucks. Pac, Em & Nas r the best

@souflondon1 Guru son!
