Yasiin Bey had been out of the hip-hop public eye, before his comments regarding Drake's "Target shopping music".
Now he is back on the map for his latest IG pic, capturing him wearing a skirt, kilt or kente' wrap, whatever you prefer to call it...
It isn't his first time wearing one. Back in April of 2014, it caused quite a stir.
This comment was from a Blog back in April 2014 when Mos was spotted wearing something suspicious:
Anywayssssss, regardless of ‘whatever’ –I truly believe that Yasiin Bey, the artist formerly known as Mos Def –who now resides in South Africa, was wearing a Kente wrap, not just because it is comfortable but because of its cultural significance. Some people need to get a grip!!!!"
Mos Def changed his name to Yasiin Bey in 2011 and moved to South Africa in 2013, on a visitor's permit. He's also adapted to the cultural customs by wearing kente' wraps, or in other countries, otherwise known as kilts or skirts.
Depending on who it is, the circumstances and the reasoning, I guess some folks get a pass for wearing a skirt (dress).............. or do they??????? lol
Only because of the waist garb, did he get a pass for wearing those horrendous boots!!!
Now, that for sure is not African culture!
Yes, our once hip-hop superhero has taken a bite out of the apple and has gone to the dark side, with no signs of returning.
Either way, the internet has gone nuts seeing Yasiin Bey's IG pic!!!! Especially since the aftermath of the Drake dust up, following Bey's comments.
Yassin Bey aka Mos Def Has Been Wearing It For Years
