Right now, Black Star, the classic rap duo of Talib Kweli and Yasiin Bey (formerly known as Mos Def) are touring Europe, celebrating their 30th anniversary as a group. There have been complications. As we previously posted, the Nov. 11 tour kickoff show in London started late because Bey’s flight was delayed, and he addressed the audience’s boos during the performance: “There are no prisoners here. There’s no refund policy. The doors work both ways.” After we posted about the London show, Talib Kweli wrote in and took issue with our story, which was based on live video and Reddit accounts. We’ve included his account below. Since the London show, there have been some further incidents, as well.
