Posted on April 11, 2023 by Maria Jackson 27 Magazine

One of the best rappers of all time, Yasiin Bey, will return to Spain for two exclusive shows for the first time in 10 years. He will perform at La Riviera in Madrid on May 10th, and at Razzmatazz in Barcelona on May 11th.

Mos Def needs no introduction. Exploding into the public consciousness as part of Black Star (with Talib Kweli) in 1998, it was Mos‘ debut – Black On Both Sides – a year later that took the New York rapper to astronomical heights and universal stardom. The LP continues to be regarded as one of the greatest albums in the genre’s history. After another three great albums (New Danger, True Magic and The Ecstatic), Yasiin Bey came back in 2022 with the highly anticipated 24-year Black Star reunion project: Fear Of Time.
