I remember seeing Mos Def at a Lyricist Lounge concert when I was in college. He showed up two hours late, because he was coming from a movie premiere in NYC. The Philly crowd was ready to kill him (Philadelphia crowds are notoriously ill tempered -- they booed Santa Claus at an Eagles game), but then he blew everybody away with his performance. Mos Def is one of my heroes, not only for his flow and uplifting message, but because he puts his soul into what he does. Something, definitely, to aspire to.
