2013 Song Black Jesus, Yasiin Bey And Mannie Fresh

For a couple of weeks I've been trying to interpret the meaning of this new song called Black Jesus. I was also trying to figure out who was on it. The discovery was a rapper called Yassiin Bey. After asking twitter who he was, someone replied with Mos Def and it all started to come together.

This song Black Jesus, according to someone I know, is not about Jesus at all. It is simply about the people on it, Yasiin Bey (Mos Def) and Mannie Fresh. 

Is it just me or is it a coincidence that both Mannie Fresh and the dude who played William on Girlfriends are reappearing into the spotlight this year? William (what's his real name?) was on an episode of Let's Stay Together earlier this year.
