One can only hope based on the snippet of a Madlib produced track that includes bars from both Mos Def and Talib Kweli. The untitled song was first spotted on Mos Def’s facebook page, however as of right now there are no details regarding the rest of the track or the rumors of a Black Star reunion that the two minute cut has sparked. Mos and Kweli are currently on the Rock The Bells Tour as Black Star performing their classic debut album by the same name, so perhaps that is yet another sign that a second Black Star project might actually be in the works. Or perhaps that is just wishful thinking by a hip hop head that would love to hear some new material from the Brooklyn duo in 2011… only time will tell.

Talib Kweli is looking to get your weekend started right with a new jam. The track, entitled "F**k the Money," arrives just as Talib announced the forthcoming release of an album of the same name. Talib also clarified that the album could drop at any given time -- even today. Looks like Talib is getting in on the surprise release hype! In addition, he's stated that if you head over to the site http://kweliclub.com/ and sign up, you may be receiving the new album for free. And if you're feeling the title track I don't see why you wouldn't just sign up -- new Talib is good Talib. Check out "F**k the Money" after the jump.
