Yasiin Bey, aka Mos Def, Weighs In On Tekashi 6ix9ine & His Music

by Daryl Nelson

Yasiin Bey recently watched Tekashi 6ix9ine's "GUMMO" video, and he wasn't all that impressed.

“Why is everyone acting like this new?" he asked. "This is a version of the same old shit."

Afterward, Bey brought up the Brooklyn duo M.O.P., probably as an example of rappers who used a lot of tough talk in their music. He then said this about "GUMMO:"

"That was the most depressing shit I’ve ever seen in my life," stated Bey.

The Black Star member might not be feeling 69. But his star keeps rising; he was just added to Nicki Minaj and Future's "NICKIHNDRXX" Tour.

From here, we'll have to see if 6ix9ine is offended by Bey calling his music depressing and if he'll quickly respond like he did to Vic Mensa.

You can see Bey watching "GUMMO" below at the 15:03 mark.
