The Nokia Theater in New York was the venue as Black Star performed on May 30th per SOHH.com:
Coming out in their own respective attire, Talib with his signature fitted cap resting atop his head with black clothing as Mos easily contradicted his partner’s gear via a “Coogi” pair of shorts, polo top and black boots. Despite their records, it was the duo’s appreciation of each audience member’s ticket purchase which Mos said “Thank-you, you could have been anywhere else in the world, but you’re here with us. We appreciate that.” In addition to “Kweli,” other tracks were played including Mos Def’s version of “Children’s Story.”
It’s interesting how one can place a paid advertisement before what looks like a camera phone video, but who am I to hate. Make that money. Video:
