Mos Def just release a new song called “Katrina Klap,” in response to the government’s mishandling of the Hurricane Katrina disaster.

On "Katrina Klap," Mos displays everything from anger to empathy, living up to his reputation for being politically and socially outspoken, taking President Bush and others to task for the slow reaction to the disaster that affected many poor communities in Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama. "Mr. President, about that cash/ Policy for handling the n---as and trash," Mos raps. "You better off on crack, dead or in jail, or with a gun in Iraq."

I got a lot of respect for Mos Def, but that Bono comment is just plain stupid. Bono has done more for America and Africa than anyone amongst Brooklyn’s finest, and Bono’s not even African or American. So unless Mos is down in the Gulf Coast shoveling water, he’s just another spectator watching CNN.
