Black Star's critically acclaimed 2022 sophomore album, No Fear Of Time is available for the first time ever on CD and vinyl from Rhymesayers Entertainment. "The initial release of this album in itself was an artistic statement,” said Siddiq Sayers, Rhymesayers CEO. “To be bold enough to bring this highly anticipated album to fans in a non-traditional way that centers the art and artist first is exactly what artistic independence is about. That spirit is at the core of what we’ve done at Rhymesayers for close to 30 years, and we’re proud to bring this album from a group so important to the culture into the world in the physical form.” 

Dropping almost a quarter century after their iconic 1998 debut, Mos Def & Talib Kweli Are Black Star,No Fear Of Time unites one of Hip-Hop's greatest duos for an eight song project that is available on single-LP vinyl, CD, and cassette. The limited deluxe double-LP edition, which included both the main version and the instrumentals pressed on 180-gram vinyl in unique color treatments, is sold out.

This deluxe vinyl edition was limited to 2,000 units and featured a foil stamped and numbered matte gatefold jacket, two full-color printed record sleeves, an 8-page matte lyric booklet, and an exclusive silver foil laminated heavyweight insert. Additionally, 300 units of the deluxe vinyl were available as a premium bundle, which included everything in the deluxe 2xLP vinyl package, plus an insert hand-signed by yasiin bey, Talib Kweli, and Madlib, along with a No Fear of Time t-shirt and a pair of Black Star slipmats.
