I don't know what it is about this guy, but I think he is too cute! He's like cute in a funny looking way. He looks like a rodent or something and he talks with a lisp, but I still like him. Mos Def (Dante Terrell Smith) hails out of Brooklyn, New York and is most popular for his lyrical skills. Contrary to what most people think, Mos was actually an actor first. He went to NYU briefly and studied theatre and was a sidekick on the short lived Bill Cosby sitcom, The Cosby Mysteries. Somewhere along the path of his life he met one of MY favorite rappers, Talib Kweli (Tah-Lib Qua-Lee) and formed Blackstar; one of hip hops most prominent underground hip hop groups. He has been nominated for several Grammys and even an Emmy as Best Actor for his moving role in Something the Lord Made, which was based on a true story. Whether you find him attractive or not, don't you dare judge him.
Oh! And whiles he's not too much of a political activist, He's not another dumb rapper!
