Was surfing the net the other day

Came across this story about the rapper Yasiin Bey

For some, it may been a while since ya seen Yasiin Bey

Which is why I'm bringing this ta your attention today

Yasiin Bey was formerly the rapper Mos Def.

He used to be Mos Def. But thanks to scientific advancements,
he became Les Def.

Have you heard about that?

Born Dante Terrell Smith in Brooklyn..

Dante? What the Hell?

I'm trying to be historical, not allegorical 

What?

I wanted to know his age when he became Mos Def.

How old when he first Gros Def? I mean Gos Def? Mos Def.

Sorry, being deaf is no laughing matter.

Does laughing matter?

Yasiin Bey knows a lot about the music business.

He has some strong opinions, we should hear what he has to say.

Maybe he could appear at a hearing to talk about it.

Good thing he's not Mos Def anymore, right?
