Mos Def Says He's Changing His Stage Name To Yasiin Bey

Let me get this straight, Mos doesn't want a moniker or a separation between who he knows himself as and what people call him, so he made up a new name to call himself for 2012? Riiiiiiight.

Really, Mos? Yasiin Bey? Your name is Dante Terrell Smith, where do you get Yasiin Bey out of that?

Now, while I think this decision is quite lame, it's obviously not my decision to make, so he can call himself whatever the hell he wants to next year, but on FiyahMuZik.com he will remain Mos Def.
