ok, i take it back, mos def is an idiot. i mean, i think what he's saying is related to nation of islam teachings, and i don't want to say anyone's religious beliefs are stupid. but i'm keeping it real here: that shit is wack.

edit: to clarify, when i said "that shit is wack," i was referring to mos def's stand on the use of steroids (i.e. that if you want to use steroids, which are illegal, whether or not you're a professional athlete, that's your business) is wack. i didn't mean to infer that 5 percenters believe you should use steroids. or that five percenters are wack. i meant mos def is stoned out of his mind in that interview.

i like mos def, but that quote troubles me. a lot. not just that quote, but what seems to me to be the common mindset in hip-hop, an "us vs. them", "black vs. white" mentality.
