Mos Def

I was in junior high, loving the underground Hip Hop. I would love to listen to Medusa, Zion I, Talib (still do), The Roots,Rakim, Planet Asia and so on. Mos Def to me is one of the best POET. Mos Def puts hip hop in the palms of his hands and turns it into Art.


Now remember folks this is only my opinion, and people can beg to differ. With some people he won them with his single "Ms. Fat Booty", but some underground hip hop heads probably got won over with "Black Star" album.

Mos Def has also been featured in a few good movies as well. You have "Brown Sugar", which I enjoyed. Just because the movie was a metaphor about Hip Hop and romance. Their is also "The Italian Job" which has good action and funny moments. So just to name a few movies, Mos Def can also prove to be a great actor.


Mos Def also known by Dante Terrell Smith-Bey is from Brooklyn,New York. Mos Def has done an album called "Black Star" in 1998, which was a collaboration with Talib Kweli. Mos Def has collaborated with Native Tongues, The Roots, Common, Kanye West, Gorrillaz, and other artists etc,..


The Last ALBUM that was released was in 2009 which is "The Ecstatic"
