Yasiin Bey Debuts New Song "Black Jesus" Live in Arizona

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

Kanye West is naming his new album I Am God, or maybe it's I Am (A) God, or maybe that's just the name of his single or maybe those stories are just tabloid linkbait fodder. What we can say is Yasiin Bey just debuted a new song at the Celebrity Theatre in Phoenix Arizona on 3/21/13. For lack of current title we'll go with "Black Jesus" judging by the lyrics. The feel good singalong style tune is supposedly produced by Mannie Fresh, from their upcoming collaboration album. Jesus is in the air, and not just because it's Easter Weekend, we understand it as ubiquitous in principle. No matter your beliefs, believe in Yasiin.
