Mos Def aka Yasin Bey is one of the most talented people I’ve seen. He’s an artist not just just a rapper or an actor.
Exceptional talent.👌🏾
@@thaxtonwaters8561 Without a doubt.
That’s the truth!
I love this Brothers position, his essence is elusive. Great artist.
@@debrariley7604 same here. His talent just seems so effortless.
He's one of the dopest lyricist on the planet; great actor too🥰💪🏾🥰
Facts💯💯💯
Definitely agree on that
He actually can sing too
Mos DEFinitely
@@BirdFromYakiVegas Love the word play! 😉
I was the house drummer for this funk band at a club called Abilene in Philly over fifteen years ago. Mos comes walking in wearing a floor length fur coat with a few friends, chilled and asked if he could get up with the band. I played drums for Mos Def... It's a memory I'll never ever forget and cherish to this day. They playing Mathematics with Yasin. Keep ya head up homie.
That is incredible!
wow. what a memory
on South Street right? I loved that place. Awesome story bro that must have been such an amazing feeling.
What do you mean playing Mathematics?
@@chokmahhalacha3171 its the songs name. Not sure if you knew that or not. Just Answering your question homie.
Yasiin Bey is a real cool and down to earth person , I actually met him at the Ritz Carlton hotel in New Orleans 2009 I chauffeured him around and just talking with him I learned a whole lot and we became cool from that moment, I introduced him to my youngest brother and I told him he’s into hip hop also , so he gave my brother a opportunity to meet up at the house of blues
Wow I love my city New Orleans Mos Def is a genius if u ask me. They tried to break him but they forgot he is a seed. #PeaceLoveAndLight
I met him at the Ritz-Carlton in Dearborn when a bunch of times when i was a Bellmen. First celeb that ever made me starstruck, gave me daps in the hotel lobby after shinin up his brooklyn chuck taylors. Him and Andre 3000 are my favorite celebs I've ever met.
I met and had a love affair with a employee at the ritz Carlton in New Orleans in 2017😂❤️ great staff
It’s a shame he had to endure all these issues as a fan I was waiting and ready to support him and his music. The Black Star album with Talib is one of the greatest hip hop album made and I was definitely waiting for a part two.
I’m glad he’s still out there creating and doing his thing on his terms
Black Star just dropped but i bet u knew that
All his problems are petty and self inflicted weirdo behavior 🤷♂️
@@jasonallen3678 what's weird is people scared to do their own thing.
@@jamarkellum1370 The new Black Star is crazy 🔥🔥🔥
It always amazed me that a lot of conservatives actually liked mosdef and than when he started speaking in favor of blm they trashed him
It’s like some conservatives don’t know the type of music that they listen to
What made them think mosdef would oppose helping black people against injustices ? I don’t really understand
Mosdef is black so of course his music will be for helping black people against injustices
Thank you comedy hype for recognizing Mos Def/ Yasiin Bey. One of the best lyricist ever.
Mad respect for him and everyone who stands tall against the industry.
The industry's never been right with any artists at all.
@@jguaponole3449 sooop sad its all of it !!
Who owns the industry though??
I lost respect for him for bashing America thinking he could go to another country live a better life and he was flat out wrong that's what he gets now he's stuck in Africa.
@@Hispanicfromanothaplanet I love America as a Country but detest the people who run it. They are the worst of the worst. National and Global terrorists and that's not an overstatement
One of the best live shows I have seen to date. Where ever he is, whatever he is doing, I hope he is well and thriving.
He just preformed on tour with Erika Badu last night in st. Louis
One could argue he’s up there with Will Smith, Queen Latifah, and Ice Cube as far as great rappers turned actors he was excellent as Chuck Berry
Agreed
Chuck Berry? Try Quest, Taaleb, Qtip, Wu etc. Will Smith? The Queen yes.🔥
Phillygurl 😎
Will Smith what you smoking
Great rappers? Maybe rappers that became great actors...however Mos def is in my top 10 all time rappers
he mighta had the potential to b better then all of them i just dont think he ever took it that serious ( as far as doing it for a long time).
I'm honestly impressed by the time and effort you put into these videos, Keep it up! ❤

Yes, these videos are of a HIGH QUALITY & they represent Black American 🇺🇸 Culture EXCELLENTLY!!! Respect ✊🏽

Mos is the absolute truth. He can't just walk away, his depth of thought needs to be shared 🌊
Jesus Christ is the absolute truth every man can & will let you down. Accept Jesus Christ & Repent before it's too late. For the Kingdom of God is at hand. Our time is short. Jesus Christ is the ONLY way to Heaven. Without Jesus Christ expect hell🔥You've been warned! John 3:3
Genius talents, and more importantly REAL artists.. You don't see enough of that these days. So much respect for his work and staying true to himself. It takes a lot to not compromise your art. Hope he never stops producing and expressing himself, whatever the venue may be.
I can say as a teen, he was the 1st rapper to make me really listen to the lyrics of a song! Early on iIt made me filter wat I listened to, and i realized the difference between Rapper vs Artist, and Rap vs Real Hip Hop! He's a Living Legend💯❤️💪🏾
Angelique, he left a good impression on me. But what is up with black americans taking arabic names but not touching actual african names. I don't get it. its weird
@@PHlophe He's a Muslim that's why he has a Arabic name like me when I converted to Islam I changed my name. In Islam we speak Arabic, are Arabic name has a meaning to it. When you see a Black person with a Arabic name that means they are probably Muslim.
Yes queen. Fax
I knew him as Mos Def with BlackStarr, with Talib Kweli, they were alright, unfortunately they dropped in an era when conscious rap wasn't really as popular. I liked Ms. Fatbooty his solo joint and N****s is Poorest, a solo joint he did as Yasin Bey, very thought provoking. I do, however, believe that acting is his forte. He has as much range the A-listers. If not for his non-conformist views he'd be on Jamie Foxx's level.
Rapper is different from a lyricist...
I'm glad he got out in one peace. Shootout to the entertainers who didn't sell out! You truly know your value👊🏼👏🏽
I am so glad to hear about him!
Sounds like south Africa was more dangerous than America.
Please don't say "shootout" LOL! Peace and security to this brother, tho 🙏
@@allenfernandez8352 hahaha autocorrect. Shoutout*
@@deezworld2318 ✌
Love it! Look forward to seeing your next creation! Loads of love from Louisiana
Great video thanks for putting all the pieces together!
Appreciate this piece….Multi talented, confident and gifted man Yasin Bey is. I was brought into recognition with him when someone randomly handed me an “Ummi Says” cd in the village (NYC) although I’ve heard that voice often years before. I had the pleasure of taking one of the Queen Mothers of Brooklyn to see Mr Bey with Jeffrey Wright in “Topdog/Underdog” which we all enjoyed. I wish the brother ultimate Peace in his life and all his future endeavors.

Yes. I concur with U.🙏🏾❣🖤💚💐
His best role was in Something the Lord Made, was outstanding.
Agree!!
He also did a great episode on House
I liked him in b kind rewind cuz it showed him being different
Wow! I didn't know he was going through so much! Great video!
Went to one of his last shows at the Apollo in Harlem a few years ago , met him afterwards with Pharoah Monch, incredibly humble dudes for sure showed mad love, respect to them both🙏🏽
One of THE most gifted Artists that I've seen in my time of living from hip-hop(BlackStar with Talib Kweli), comedy, acting, etc. It sucks that he got black balled in a more modernized way, but stayed TRUE to himself despite false allegations of the current times. I'm grateful that he's one of the few who stayed true to the Art and didn't sell out due to pressure from the outside. #salute!
That song Just to get by with Talib was the best back in 02 03

Thank you for the update
This brother is so old school cool… super photogenic with an iconic style of his own. He reminds me of that period in our History where Black folks communicated beyond words, with a silent, bottom line energy that was truly appreciated universally. He is his own man … made from pieces of Malcolm and H Rap and Dick Gregory … wrapped up in some Marvin, some Bill Russell … Yaphett and Miles. Corporations fear any unique thing they do not understand or cannot control. Yaslin will not find his way … he will, instead, define his way. I see why his boy is Chappell. Water will always find its own level.
Truth Indeed AMEN
Beautifully stated.
Bill Russell?
@@allenfernandez8352 Bill Russell used his celebrity in political ways. He organized multiple prominent sports figures to support Muhammad Ali when Ali refused to submit to the draft and fight in Vietnam. He
, Jim Brown and Kareem were very outspoken during that period. Very strong and unconventional personalities.
@@snoopingpuppy8392 I definitely knew about Kareem and Brown but not Russell. I need to catch up with the research. Respect 💯
Damn it's so crazy that he's had to endure all the bs because he's such a gifted human being. I'm a big fan of his work in hip hop & Hollywood. Even though is damn near impossible to find his new music I have too side with him and say he could do whatever he feels he has to do. Salute yasin ✊🏾
Sounds like a crazy person to me,, A world passport isn't a real thing... He knows that so does the narrator... Retired 45 times.
So f-ing what if he’s a gifted individual!!! The law is the law!! Don’t like the law? Don’t live here!!! Why does he get a free pass to break the law just because he writes music?

Dope video! Thanks for the update! What’s the news on Daylyt?!
THANKS FOR SHARING THIS 👌
people don't know how much of a powerful person MOS def was and his foot in old school hip hop
Truth Indeed
And in new school. Cordae, Cole both heavily influenced by Mos
I hope he finally gets himself together - he’s insanely talented but clearly unstable as he continuously demonstrates through his consistently terrible life decisions. It’s just sad to see him suffer self inflicted irrelevance
@@markieffmorris9263 What you mean? He was just on SNL with TK.
Freaking sad what talented artist have to go through to make a positive name for themselves.
Great video and info 👍🏽
This was a great video. Thank you. I dont know how i missed this name change. Ive heard the new name but didnt know who it was. So thank you so much.
As a South African, I apologize for Mos' injustice😭
Awe, I was about to say the same. Home Affairs just being Home Affairs.
As a blackman I apologize for South Africa!He should've move to Ghana or Rwanda!!
Lol! There's nothing to apologize for.
He was an immigrant in SA on a VISA. Just get you papers in order. I love the guy and his music but his political statement blew up in his and unfortunately his family's face as well.
Sir Lazarus stand up brother for the Black Man and and Black Woman no matter where they're on earth
He should of taken an actual african name. i onno what Yazin bey is. but he looks more like a Siyabonga Dlamini to me.
Love Mos Def..He's one of my personal favorites..
Kimberlyn, black on both sides but he baaaad deadbeat dad that's why he ran to Mzansi for a while
@@PHlophe Honey were you one of his children he ran out on?
!
@@willissudweeks1050 !"
I helped him at the airport once (I used to work there). He was super low key and humble, unlike a certain other rapper I saw at another time. 😬
This video put me at ease. A lot of info here that I wanted to know. Thank you!!
This man was a good lyrical artist and a good actor
MOS DEFF/Yasin Bey is a true Renaissance man and needs to be treated as such. There is no boxing him in. Too much control outside of one self. Let him live in peace. Hell all of us for that matter.
salaamu alaikum wow this voice sounds like yasiin..he is a very kind hearted and true to his word person! This is sis rasheeda from jersey..Stay true always to this diin and u will stay on top...
I’m a 66 year old white man who lives in semi rented west Texas, I never knew who Mos Def was until I saw the movie with Bruce Willis, in less than 5minutes in Mos Def’s character captured my attention. I could tell right off that this guy was a great actor, the man himself captured my attention. I’m glad he (and Dave also because he’s one of my favorites)is not going to let anything kill a true artist’s gift to all.
Yasiin Bey is creatively ambidextrous. His TRUE talent allows him to shapeshift into any industry. Who needs fame?
Loved his work since 'Big Brother Beat' 🎤💪🏾🎩
It's been since the "Lyricist Lounge" days for me. The movie "Something the Lord Made" was another high point in his career.
* ambivalent
Wow,...my daughter and I were talking about him last week. I loved his acting. Will you.do any more movies? Miss you Bey.
I like the song *brown sugar*
This man has been around for loooooooooong time. NOTHING but respect not just for his skills on a mic but his entire gamut of items he's KO'd... He's truly an amazing talent. Miss you MosDef. one love.
WOWWWWW...didn't know all of this was going on with Mos Def...thanks for sharing this information
I respect Yasin Bey for not selling his soul, that connection with the Most High is more important than anything in this World.
I so appreciate this content. It’s funny how I in the recent past weeks said to myself, I wonder how Mos Def is doing and I miss him on the screen and all. I’m happy to see that true friendship never dies, having been seen out with Dave Chappelle, and my man Q-Tip. That’s love! Well #yasiinbey #mosdef just know that you will always have the support of your fans over here in the U.S.. Continued blessings from Above and Prayers to you and your family Mos Def. 🙏🏽✌🏽❤️
Well, I saw this coming. Years ago, he was on a panel on a late show. I can't remember if it was Bill Maher's Real Time or The Daily Show, but the subject was about disarming one of the Middle Eastern countries of their nuclear weapons abilities. I remember him saying " How you gonna tell any other countries that they can't defend themselves? " that's when I knew that his days in Hollywood were numbered!
OH WOW, NOS DEF SPOKE THE TRUTH!
@C.D to some extent, Lauryn Hill as well.
Ironically none of the countries he moved were predominately Muslim. Great artist though.
] no
@@parkerxjr ironically you proved yourself to be a bigot exactly what you seem to dislike..... unironically..
Thank you for this amazing video about Yasin Bey! The narrator is awesome!! A video very well done all the way around. ✌👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🌠✨😎
Nice video. I was lucky enough to see him performing recently in NYC (I didn't realize how lucky until watching this) with Talib Kweli as Blackstar. It was incredible and Yasin was radiant.
Thank you!! Yasin Bey is a deep and real lyricist and a very good actor! Much love and appreciation for the update. I've often wondered what happened and where he disappeared to? 🤔 💛 🧡❤
May your choices in life be for internal peace. You've always been a great example here in the US to all. To your fans, to your friends and family. Also to your enemies and those who disliked what you are all about. Unfortunately everyone has them also. Thank you for being who you are. From Allentown, PA
Just found out about mos def not to long ago this history lesson is much needed and much appreciated.
Thanks for the update, I was wondering what he was up to these days!

Facts mos def is easily one of the greats
Thank you for the update. This brings back fond memories of my teenage daughter and I going to see "Mos Def" (Yasin Bey) years ago at BAM in Brooklyn! Excellent Artist!
Excellent video!!
Mos Def has been one of my heroes ever since I got into blackstarr, the profound depth of his lyrics, acting (be kind rewind and hitchhikers guide to the galaxy being two of my fav films of all time) and music and the inherent sincerity of character, that I believe is his real self that comes through, is something I hold in great respect. His presence in music is when music and hip hop took a turn into quality, true creativity and class. I am a white Jewish south African woman...so not your usual demographic but I feel privileged to have grown up in a time and city (pretoria) where hip hop was blowing up and I was taught what real music is from one of the greats..that's you Sir. I wish my home country had not done what they did it would have been a great honour to have you as a fellow member of this crazy dysfunctional beautiful S.A. tribe I call my own...May God bless you on your journey in which He still, I'm sure, has so much planned for you....stretching from music to bringing nations together..that's right I said it ! Much love to you and your family....
Thank you so much for this report❤🖤💚 I really like your reporting style. Pleasant, straight to the point, no fillers, no fluff, no opinon taints, no stuff. I wondered about where he was and what he was up to. You are Appreciated 👑👑👑
Wow, I truly miss him. He was incredible
I was coming out of work one night as a kid, and Black on Both Sides CD was on the ground next to my car in an empty lot. It was a life changer. So incredibly talented. His spoken word at the end of Jil Scott's Love Rain Coffeshop Mix is some of the most beautiful poetry I've ever heard. Something the Lord Made should be shown in schools and watched by people of all colors.
As *extremely* intelligent as he is, his conspiracy theories and worldview get me though. He's able to articulate masterfully, but the dots just never quite connect.
I sincerely hope he comes back and brings that unifying spirit with him. We need that now more than ever.
Man I was at that OneMusic Fest and so glad I got to see him perform.
Out of all the rappers he is THE BEST actor! I was truly hoping to see him on screen again and of course his music. The Black Star album came on the brink of my adulthood and definitely made an impact.
Truth
Truth Indeed
method man está no mesmo nível.
I truly believe mos def would’ve went down in history, even bigger than jay z, if he didn’t just up and disappear. 🙏🏽😔his absence has changed the trajectory of hip hop indefinitely
Nah no one will ever surpass "Mr. Brklyns Finest" The King of NY
FACTS!! Nas was never as much a threat to Jay's "crown" as much as Mos, DMX and Eminem in '99 imo. Dante could've been the best to ever do it
Why even compare jay? Jay had his own trajectory and mos is still going down in history.
@@juswolf22 I disagree. They both similar, imo. I just think mos def had most the talent. While with jay z, it was all about positioning.
@@ThePhatFilosopher how are they both similar besides they both rap and from Brooklyn? Jay was more business and mos was more about the art.
I was grateful to hang with him and Talib early in their careers..He was always funny and down to earth
This is so well done!
I'm so sad he felt that way. I have admired him for years. I wish him the best.❤️🙏
My dude, always. One of the Best to do it.🔥🔥🔥🙏🏽
Keep doing your thing. Much love
Thank you for this video. I've always loved his music and acting, he has shown a lot of integrity his whole career. He never folded and he gets nothing but love and respect from me.
So so thankful to hear about one of my real favorite entertainer in the world. It shows how bad it is out there when you have respect, dignity and integrity.
Taking ownership of one's self scares ppl. Y.B. is one my favorite entertainers.... always!
Note: I was disappointed when I visited S.A. and several other countries in the Mother land for a few months.
Home IS where the Heart IS.💗
What disappointed you about SA?
Please elaborate a little about your experience in S.A.
Got nothin but love for Mos Def aka Yasiin Bey. I’ve grown up listening to his work and all I can say is his energy and who he is come through in his music and that why I love it so much. You do you bro. Stay true. ✌️
Great information thanks
Yasin Bey is a Lyrical ICON. SA tried to milk this man of his fortune with all the red taping. Live in peace my brother.
South Africa rightly enforced its immigration laws as all countries do, this man isn’t special…you break the law, face consequences. he got deported and nothing was milked from him, he’s barely rich. Now he’s never allowed to come back to the country because he stupidly tried to present a fraudulent non-recognised travelling document& overstayed his visa innSA
🙌🏾 Yasiin Bey will always be one of the dopest lyricists!! 🔥🔥
Thank you for this video🙏 I really wanted to know what happened to him, I’m glad he’s doing good, I hate the fact that he had to go through all that, but a straight legend nonetheless 💯
Love him! "Be kind, please rewind" is literally one of the funniest movies ever. 😂😂😂😂
THANKS FOR THE UPDATE ☺️
Yasiin Bey is a great artist and seems like an even greater man. I grew up listening to his music and still to this day I’m inspired by his songs. It’s unfortunate that great people such as Yasiin suffer for striving to make this world a better place. The narrator said “homies” while reading the lyrics, when it’s actually umi or ummi which means mother or foundation in Arabic and I’m sure Yasiin Bey’s mother is proud of the man he’s become.
Yasin is my friend. I have grown up with him. He is such a humble person and loves to help anyone.
My legend it was me who give you the first damp at Dave Chappelle show Thursday night. I'm The Third eye that had the Airforce hat satting on the back with yall on stage. High respected for Dave Chappelle.
As a white metal head from the suburbs, I always liked this guy. I liked his roles in film and stuff he did/does for activism. Seems really genuine and down to earth.
I sure wish he'd come live in Honduras! He'd live like a king here and he'd also be a great influence to the Garifuna (Afro-Honduran) community. He's one of my favorite entertainers!!!
I'm Garifuna too and I spent many of my teenage years listening to Mos, Kweli, Common, and Dead Prez. One love to you and all the Garinagu's out there 🇭🇳🇭🇳🇭🇳✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
He may end up like Dr Sebi
@@swannoir7949 Good point!
Much respect from the states!
Bruh, I thought the whole thing was a Mos Def monologue, lmao. You sound like him. Great voice.
Before even watching. Yasin is one of the most genuine, real, person we have on this planet. I'd give a lot just for an hour of talk with this guy.
It's so sad he had to go through all he's had to go through. He's definitely one of the most talented, gifted and prolific artists of our time on so many levels. Blessings to him and his family

Yes! I met him that year at Rock the Bells.
