Video: Black Star Cover Slick Rick, Notorious B.I.G. + More Live In Paris

Yeah, I know we been posting a lot of material from this surprise Black Star concert at Bataclan (and Yasiin's Parisian side-trip to the radio station) but that is only because it was clearly an epic night. In this 12-minute mini-concert film from Mr. Mass we get much better audio and photography of the songs we've seen (all from a DJ's eye view onstage). Plus, more importantly, we get a whole lot of new stuff. Highlights: tributes to Notorious B.I.G. (at about 7 minutes in) and a Slick Rick cover, Yasiin bugging out to Bad Brains and an un-named (trainspotters, educate me) up-rocking jam and making French jokes ('Merci buckets') and more good, clean fun. Now imagine if they were doing shows like this in support of a new Black Star album...
