"We're still absorbing the impact and effect of those avenues," referring to a digitized world that includes Google, YouTube,etc. "I'm a child of the 70s, and I walk around everyday feeling like I'm in a Buck Rogers episode. I'm still trying to get over the cellphone. It's an exciting time to be a person making art in the world today."
On how he (Mos Def) views the internet - communication, creation, collaboration. "This time of history that we're in how, in relation to technology, is similar to the early 20th century... it's such a wide open field. It's all new to me, I'm still getting used to email." (source)
