Mos Ready to Battle Jay-Z and Other Takers for 'Greatest Rapper Alive' Title

Mos Def vents to Hot 97's Angie Martinez about "the greatest rapper alive" debacle and voices his interest in organizing a "Battle of New Orleans" benefit to raise funds for the Hurricane Katrina-plagued city to settle those claims. Mos would serve as team captain of his squad -- including Jay Electronica, MF Doom, Nas and Black Thought -- versus Jay-Z and his four-man posse.

Any takers?

*Side note: How are you going to misspell an artist's name in the video? Just a pet peeve of mine.
