Mos Def’s new album “The Ecstasy” marks a rupture in hip-hop music and American culture. Frolab has the story behind the album’s name in “Why’s the Album Called “The Ecstasy?’” with video of the documentary that inspired his music. The music itself is also inspired in on this one and Mos Def is spilling with insight. Like he says in one of the songs, “I’m so wide awake that it’s hard to sleep.”
