Mos Def is the most talented emcee EVER. He can freestyle. He can act on screen. He’s done plays. He can rap all different styles. He sings. He does Caribbean and Afrobeat vibes. He can rock in English, Spanish, Arabic or Japanese. He’s just as poetic as Pac or Nas. He’s just as political as Common or Chuck D. He’s just as creative or abstract as Andre 3000 or Q-Tip. You can put Mos Def on a song with JayZ, Dead Prez, Common, Nate Dogg, Pharoahe Monch, Kanye West, The Isley Brothers, Fela Kuti, Busta Rhymes, Jay Electronica, it doesn’t even matter.. he’s going to come with some shxt to match the vibe. He’s not the Greatest Emcee, as far as discography or career. But, Yasiin Bey is absolutely the Mos Talented. I’ll never forget when he crashed that award show with his own stage and performed, “Katrina Clap” to make sure the message got out 😂😂😂😂😂 Mos gives NO f**ks on top of all the talent 😂😂😂😂😂

I have been saying this for years. Unfortunately people who have never acted or truly appreciate what acting is will assume a str in a movie makes them an actor. Sad thing is many of these Rappers are just using film as a vehicle for their brand and do not make any effort to train themselves in acting for greater performance. Very well said Aries and whoever does not understand ...too bad!!!

I agree!! For one he’s being very careful on his opinion. And a lot of rappers can’t do different roles that you forget it’s them!!

Method Man is definitely doing his thing on Power. He’s getting better at his craft. But he’s right most rappers just play variations of themselves. Ludacris did an episode of Law & Order SVU a while back and did a very good job. He wasn’t playing some rapper or hood dude either.

Aries Spears is phenomenal!!!!!!!

There are actual, professionally trained actors that I feel like have built an entire 20 and 30 year career, basically, 90 percent of the time playing the same character in different movies. Tom Cruise comes to mind. Top Gun in an airplane. Top Gun in a court room Top Gun working for a secret government agency.. etc. etc. The few movies that he did do that moved away from that type of character, and would be useful in an argument that gave him "range" didn't do too well at the box office...

Ice Cube inspired the movie Boyz in the Hood with his song Boys in the Hood. Ice Cube wrote his next role Friday. How come these trained actors don't write something to star in. Sylvester Stallone wrote Rocky, because he wanted to be Rocky. Rappers shouldn't feel sorry about trained actors not getting roles. because how many people rap, who can't rap. How many actors get record deals, because they're famous actors?

I agree entirely with Aries; it's spot on. I am so happy he mentioned Mos Def as one of the great rappers-turned-actors. Mos Def was good in Something the Lord Made. He is also true in saying that people can't have opinions today without fear of getting canceled.

Mark Wahlberg also, although to call him a rapper is a bit of a stretch.

I agree with Aries, Mos Def was a great actor, i really enjoyed his acting

I totally agree with Aries point of view on Common as a actor. He took the words out my thoughts. 🇿🇦

Cube definitely doesn't have any range, but he should've been nominated for Boyz n da hood.

lol CubA was the only decent actor in Boyz. Ice Cube was just playing the role of Ice Cube

I think Ice Cube has been a part of a lot of good movies but as an actor he is wack

Mos Def is probably the most underrated rapper actor ever. I wish he'd do more roles as well.

Totally agree with brother Aries on this one. Facts

What about LL playing god

​@@WawaMarvelYou have not seen him in different movies. Mos can act. Not talking about Boondocks. That tells me you don't know his films. Even Aries knows and other people. Mos has range.

For the first time in a long time. I agree with Aries

Part of this too though is opportunity. Why all have heard and can imagine the role opportunity disparages in the processing of these large budgeted films. From the opportunities, or lack thereof, in writing to directing to casting to acting, etc.. But yes, some of these are indeed facts.

Wow... well said aries. If a trained actor decided to start rapping he/she would tarred and feathered
