About the Item
A stunning artifact of a classic hip-hop album, this original 1998 promotional poster for Mos Def
Talib Kweli Are Black Star commands attention with bold yellow and orange block lettering against a stark black background. Professionally framed, the text-driven design showcases the duo's names alongside star symbols and "ALBUM IN STORES NOW," exemplifying the street-team promotional aesthetic.
Released September 29, 1998, the album's name honors Marcus Garvey's Black Star Line, embodying Pan-Africanism and empowerment through Brooklyn-rooted philosophy. On the album, Mos Def (Yasiin Bey) and Talib Kweli’s tracks like "Definition" and "Respiration" were hip-hop anthems of the era.
In very good vintage condition with minor wear consistent, including a ding in the right bottom corner of the frame.
