Mos Def started his rap career as a member of the [[Native Tongue Posse]] collective and by guesting on albums by [[Da Bush Babees]] and [[De La Soul]]. He released a well-received album with [[Talib Kweli]] as [[Black Star (hip hop group)|Black Star]], and was a major force in the late 1990s [[underground hip hop]] explosion spearheaded by [[Rawkus Records]]. His stage name doesn't come from the words 'most definitely' but refers instead to his belief that he is in fact the most 'def' of all ('def' being the old school Hip Hop term for 'cool'). He would, however, later release a compilation album which makes reference to his name called [[Mos Definite]]. Initially recognized for his musical output, Def's screen work since the early 2000s has established him as one of only a handful of rappers who have garnered critical approval for their acting work. Def is also a critic on several social and political issues, and was particularly vocal in the wake of [[Hurricane Katrina]] in 2005. ==Biography== ===Early life=== Mos Def was born '''Dante Terrell Smith''' in the [[Roosevelt Houses]] of [[Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn]], [[New York City]].<ref name=BeliefNet>[http://www.beliefnet.com/story/75/story_7526_1.html You're Gonna Serve Somebody]</ref> He has two younger brothers, Abdul Rahman, a.k.a. "Gold Medal Man," who is Mos' full-time DJ, and Anwar Superstar. He also has a younger sister, Ces Smith.

Despite their contract with Payday Records, the group only released two [[single (music)|single]]s, and their debut [[album]] ''Manifest Destiny'' was not released until 2004, when it was distributed by Illson Media. In 1996, he emerged as a solo artist and worked with [[De La Soul]] and [[da Bush Babees]], before he released his own first single, "Universal Magnetic," which was a huge [[underground music|underground]] [[hit parade|hit]]. After signing with [[Rawkus Records]], Mos Def and [[Talib Kweli]] formed the group [[Black Star (hip hop group)|Black Star]], and released a full length [[album]] under the name, ''[[Mos Def and Talib Kweli are Black Star]]''. The album was released in 1998 and featured [[Hi-Tek]] as [[music production|producer]] on most of the tracks. Mos Def released his solo debut ''[[Black on Both Sides]]'' in 1999 through [[Rawkus Records]].Black On Both Sides recieved 4 mics from [[The Source]]. Mos Def was also featured on Rawkus' influential ''[[Lyricist Lounge]]'' and ''[[Soundbombing]]'' series of compilations. After the collapse of Rawkus, he signed to [[Interscope Records|Interscope]]/[[Geffen Records]], which released his second solo album ''[[The New Danger]]'' in 2004. "[[The New Danger]]" received criticism from fans and critics for its eclectic mix of several musical genres, including soul, blues and rock and roll, performed with his rock band [[Black Jack Johnson]]. [[Black Jack Johnson]] contained members of the bands [[Bad Brains]] and [[Living Colour]]. Mos Def has drawn some criticism from his fan base about "[[Indie cred|keeping it real]]" after he appeared in a commercial that endorsed the [[GMC Denali]] [[sport utility vehicle]].<ref>{{cite web| title=Your Thoughts on the Mos Def Denali Commercial?| url=http://mosdef.funky4u.com/2005/10/10/your-thoughts-on-the-mos-def-denali-commercial/| work=Magnetic: Mos Def News| date=[[2006-10-10]]| accessdate = 2006-03-27}}</ref> Mos Def's final solo album for Geffen Records,''[[True Magic]]'', was quietly released on [[December 29]], [[2006]]. 2007 saw the release of another solo album: ''[[Mos Definite]]''.

The album is said to be released in April 2008; producer and fellow [[Def Poetry Jam|Def Poet]] Al Be Back has revealed that he would be producing as well, and that Mos is "four or five records in" to the album.<ref>[http://www.hiphopgame.com/index2.php3?page=albeback Exclusive Hip Hop News, Audio, Lyrics, Videos, Honeys, Wear, Sneakers, Download Mixtapes<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> In April Mos appeared on the title track for a new album by [[The Roots]] entitled ''[[Rising Down]]''. ===Social and political views=== By the early 1990s, a brand of socially conscious hip hop that had been popularized by [[A Tribe Called Quest]], [[KRS-One]], and many others had been eclipsed in popularity by [[gangsta rap]]. Mos Def, as well as [[Talib Kweli]], [[Common (rapper)|Common]], [[Little Brother]], [[Quannum Projects]] and others helped [[Conscious hip hop|socially aware rap music]] experience something of a comeback in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Mos Def's collaboration with Talib Kweli, ''[[Black Star]]'', was released during the aftermath of the deaths of [[2Pac]] and [[The Notorious B.I.G.]] and focused on violence and deceit in hip-hop, in collaboration with other acts that did the same. Def's music also has references to his [[Islam]]ic faith, and his contention that black artists receive little credit for their role in the birth of [[rock and roll]] music. On Mos Def's 2004 album ''[[The New Danger]]'', the rapper took his penchant for experimentation to a new level. Most of the songs were more hip-hop flavored stylings of [[blues]] and [[Rock music|rock]], with fewer raps thrown in. This threw off fans who were expecting another full-blown rap album. ''The New Danger'' also featured the [[controversial]] song, "The Rape Over," a [[parody]] of [[Jay-Z]]'s ''[[The Blueprint]]'' hit "[[Takeover (song)|Takeover]]": :''Old white men is runnin' this rap shit,'' :''Corporate forces runnin' this rap shit,'' :''Some tall [[Israeli people|Israeli]] is runnin' this rap shit,'' :''We poke out our asses for a chance to cash in.'' :''[[Cocaine]], is runnin' this rap shit,'' :''[[cannabis (drug)|'Dro]], [[cognac (drink)|'yac]] and [[Ecstasy (drug)|e-pills]] is runnin this rap shit,'' :''[[MTV]] is runnin' this rap shit,'' :''[[Viacom]] is runnin' this rap shit,'' :''[[AOL]] and [[Time Warner]] runnin' this rap shit,'' :''Quasi-[[homosexual]]s is runnin' this rap shit.'' :''Mos Def is runnin' this rap shit.'' High-placed [[corporate officer|executive]]s temporarily made him take the song off releases of the album, citing clearance issues with Jay-Z and [[The Doors]], a band which the song [[sampling (music)|samples]]. The song has garnered controversy over its veiled reference to [[Israeli]] American record executive [[Lyor Cohen]] (the "tall Israeli" who then was head of the [[The Island Def Jam Music Group]]). Mos and [[Immortal Technique]] released a similarly controversial song, "[[Bin Laden (song)|Bin Laden]]" in 2004, which blamed the [[Reagan Doctrine]] and President [[George W. Bush]] for the [[September 11, 2001 attacks]]. A club [[remix]] song, featuring [[Eminem]], was released the following year, in 2005. In September 2005, Mos Def released the single "Katrina Clap," renamed "Dollar Day" for ''True Magic'', (utilizing the instrumental for [[New Orleans]] rappers UTP's "[[Nolia Clap]]"), a [[Criticism of government response to Hurricane Katrina|criticism]] of the [[Bush administration]]'s response to [[Hurricane Katrina]]. On the night of the [[MTV Video Music Awards]], Mos Def pulled up in front of [[Radio City Music Hall]] on a flatbed truck and began performing the "Katrina Clap" single in front of a crowd that quickly gathered around him. He was subsequently arrested despite having a public performance permit in his possession.<ref>"[http://www.mp3.com/news/stories/6153.html Mos Def arrested outside VMAs]." [[Mp3.com]].

Also, Mos Def also stated his belief that [[9/11 conspiracy theories|Al-Qaeda was not responsible for 9/11]], joked that the [[Apollo Moon Landing hoax accusations|Apollo Moon landings were a hoax]], and that [[Al-Qaeda]] is not responsible for as much [[terrorism]] as they are portrayed to be.<ref>[http://www.billmaher.com/?page_id=204 HBO Broadcast Transcript].[http://www.billmaher.com/ BillMaher.com].
