About Mos Def

M O S D E F peace. i was born in brooklyn new york in 1973. ive been working professionally as an artist for nearly 20 years. ive been very blessed to work with some of the worlds brightest talents and many of my personal heroes.thus far ive been nominated for 2 grammys, a golden globe, an emmy, and a source award among others. i was awarded a peabody award for my work on the hbo series "def poetry" and won an obie award for the suzan lori parks play "fucking A".

i was on broadway in another suzan lori play "topdog underdog" w/ my man jeffrey wright and directed by my other man george C. "big daddy" wolfe in 2002. the play won the pulitzer prize that year. we performed it in london the following year. im proud to have been apart of it. ive done work in film and television as well w/ folks like bill cosby and the late great nell carter to name a few.

like i said ive been blessed and im grateful. mashaallah. i just wanna say i appreciate all the love and good vibrations that folks have been sendin my way thru the years on this particular journey and im wishin you all peace love and power in your own journey as well. the elders say "love em all,trust a few,and fear none"....thats wassup. one love. peace.

Valid	Nov 30 2008 11:05 PM Sup every one, its Ya’man’s Valid- The Detroit Serb MC, you may have heard me on major mixtapes that have been hosted by big names such as Juelz Santana, DJ Noodles, Keri Hilson, and David Banner! And you might have even heard me on the radio in the Pittsburgh area! But here I am wit some more fire for your ears! It’s pretty damn obvious the Hip-Hop game is a wreck in its current stages, with records sales as low as ever, rappers getting signed left and right with no skill, I think most would agree Hip-Hop needs a gift from God to save the game, That’s why I gotta new banga “Prophet”, produced by my main man Snatch Wallitz from the well known Detroit production team Tha Trak Knockaz, “Prophet” brings an old school flavor with a new school twist, a hot sample that’s raw and to the theme of the track, laced with witty rhymes and wordplay. Hallelujah!! To hear “Prophet” just go to www.myspace.com/valid313 and it’ll begin to bump through your speakers! Amen Peace & Love- Valid -Kosovo je Srbija- www.myspace.com/valid313 www.myspace.com/ThatrakKnockaz
