I Can't Take It Y'all I Can

I'm Really Quite Bipolar, And The Depressed Times, When Everything Felt Like Night, Sometimes You Get To Such A Low Point That You Physically Beat At It Until It Bleeds - As You Would Say - Bleeds Till Sunshine. You Get To A Point Where You Say, 'i Will Not Take It Anymore! I'm Gonna Do Something Drastic If I Stay This Depressed. I've Got To Break Out Of There!'

I Began To Fear That Mos Def Was Being Treated As A Product, Not A Person, So I've Been Going By Yasiin Since '99. At First It Was Just For Friends And Family, But Now I'm Declaring It Openly.

I Like To Read The 'financial Times' When I'm Traveling. 'economist.' 'ad Busters.'

To Me, Playing An Instrument And Singing, All Of These Different Things Are Just As Natural To Me As Rhyming.

I Tell People All The Time, I've Always Loved Music And I Love The Language, Which Is A Huge Reason Why I'm Part Of Theater. But, I Didn't Wanna Do All Of This. I Would've Been Satisfied To Do It, Like, On The Weekends Among Friends, And To Have A Regular Job.
