Mos Def Involved In Altercation

by JOKESTA

FRIDAY AUGUST 17, 2007

Brooklyn rapper Mos Def got into an altercation with a TMZ photographer on Wednesday, August 5th.

According to reports, Mos was exiting a club when a photographer snapped an unwanted pic of the rapper. Mos then asked the photographer to delete the photo.

When the photographer refused, Mos calmly explained he was violating his personal space, however, one of his friends jumped in and tried to wrestle the camera away.

Mos Def proceeded to jump in and try and snatch away the camera as well when he realized TMZ cameras were rolling.

“I’m not trying to damage nuthin’ ... I just want him to erase the photo. I’m not hurting him, I just want him to erase my photo and knock it off.” Said Mos.

You can check out the video below.

I don't think Mos is underrated. EVERYONE KNOWS he's vicious... He just produces Hip-Hop at a less "marketable" level. I like Mos' swagger, though... he branched out into television and film; I'm feelin' that!

Yeah, but how do you know how big his fan base is? Based on what? His numbers in record sales? Do you know his actual TOUR/SHOW numbers? Ahhhh! MOST artists make more $ on tour than record sales anyway...

Mos calmly explained he was violating his personal space

I should've used that one in court the time I got arrested for disorderly conduct after challenging a store security guard to fight and creating a loud commotion, after he approached and accused me of stealing a magazine.
