(2006)"The New Danger" is the long-awaited second album by
Mos Def , released onOctober 19 ,2004 . It features not only hip hop but rock,blues and soul songs as well. Track 5, "The Rape Over" was removed from the second pressing of the album due to comments such as "some tall Israeli is runnin' this rap shit", a reference toLyor Cohen , former head ofDef Jam . The song is also a take onJay-Z 's song "Takeover." It also retains the sample ofThe Doors ' song "Five to One ", which was used on the original Jay-Z track. Both songs were produced byKanye West .Track listing
