Mos Def
If Islam's sole interest is the welfare of mankind, then Islam is the strongest advocate of human rights anywhere on Earth.
Mos Def
If it's just fame for the sake of being famous, no one even cares about you - and you don't even care about yourself because you're like, This is so ridiculous.
Mos Def
Beef is not what Jay said to Nas Beef is when the working folks can't find jobs.
