About a week and a half ago, yasiin bey (formerly known as Mos Def) was finally granted permission to leave South Africa after a 10-month detainment. Yasiin and his family ended up violating immigration laws when they decided to stay in South Africa on an expired visa.
But, he’s BACK in the United States. And he’s making his rounds at Art Basel 2016 in Miami.
yasiin, who announced his retirement from the rap game recently, hit up the Public School And The Confidante Present WNL Radio held at The Confidante. He snapped it up alongside Public School designer Dao-Yi Chow and Fonzworth Bentley during the festivities.
Before he retires from the rap game, he’s set to put on a farewell series at the Apollo Theater. It will kick off on Wednesday, December 21st, culminating at The Kennedy Center from Saturday, December 31st through Monday, January 2, 2017. yasiin is also releasing a new album titled December 99th before he leaves the game for good.
Recently engaged rapper Gucci Mane was also at the Public School event snapping pics with Public School designers Maxwell Osborne and Dao-Yi Chow.
Elsewhere in Miami...
Tyga and his girlfriend Kylie Jenner are on the scene together making their way to E11even Nightclub last night.
Apparently, there’s beef between the “Racks City” rapper and rapper 21 Savage. The two have been going back and forth with Instagram shots after 21 posted up IG posts of Tyga’s girlfriend Kylie.
In one IG post, 21 posted up a sexy pic of Kylie with the caption, “shoutout to my boss b*tches wifing n*ggas.” Tyga threw shots at 21 mocking the rapper’s gifted Ferrarri from Drake.
