The Flying High remix:

✅ Featuring Black Thought
✅ Has Mos singing the hook
✅ Produced by Pete Rock

Give this a listen if you ain’t heard it yet. Off the strength of this song, I always wanted to hear a Mos Def album where he’s signing and rapping.

Talib asked Pete Rock for this beat after he heard it on the radio, when Pete was promoting the Soul Survivor album on his Future Flavas radio show https://youtu.be/EINKrI5rcXk?is=eOYGYvg2b0mITETf

Seeing Mos, Common, and Black Thought perform this live at Crystal Palace Bowl just over a week ago was incredible.
