Mos Def is bouncing between rapping and acting as usual. The actor has a co-starring role in the upcoming Michael Gondry film starring Jack Black titled "Be Kind Rewind." Meanwhile, the rapper has signed to Downtown Records, the label home of Art Brut and Gnarls Barkley.

Jack Black stars in Be Kind Rewind, a one-of-a-kind comedy from the mind of writer/director Michel Gondry (Dave Chappelle's Block Party, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind). Black stars as a loveable loser stuck in a life that's too small for his big dreams. But when he unintentionally erases all the tapes in a video store where his best friend works, he devises a plan to satisfy the store's few loyal customers by re-creating and re-filming every movie they decide to rent. Be Kind Rewind features a cast that includes Mos Def, Danny Glover, and Mia Farrow. It is scheduled for a January 25, 2008 release.
