Dante Terrell Smith (born December 11, 1973) is an American actor and MC, known by the stage names Mos Def /ˌmoʊsˈdɛf/ and Yasiin Bey /jæˈsiːnˈbeɪ/. He started his hip hop career in a group called Urban Thermo Dynamics, after which he appeared on albums by Da Bush Babees and De La Soul. With Talib Kweli, he formed the duo Black Star, which released the album Black Star in 1998. He was a major force in late 1990s underground hip hop while with Rawkus Records.
