Hip-hop icons Black Star – Yasiin Bey and Talib Kweli – are bringing their razor-sharp lyricism and undeniable influence to Vivid Sydney at Carriageworks.

Since their groundbreaking 1998 debut Mos Def & Talib Kweli Are Black Star, the duo has shaped the sound of conscious hip-hop, blending Afrocentric themes, socio-political commentary, and unmatched wordplay into anthems that resonate.

Decades on, Black Star remains a driving force in the ever-evolving hip-hop landscape. One-night-only with two rap greats – don’t miss it!
