Yeah, New Danger is definitely a failed experiment. True Magic is alright.
As for Mos Def's acting, watch Bamboozled.

I couldn't find a decent video for it but Black Star did a nice live rendition of What's Beef on Chappelle's show. I think it was cut from the original broadcast but it's on the DVD of whatever season of the series. Hell, nobody's gonna buy that now so here's what's on youtube. The sound is much better on the DVD of course.
