Hip hop artist and actor Mos Def, now known as Yasilin Bey, has been ordered to leave South Africa after violating the country’s immigration laws.

Bey, his wife, his mother, and his four children, arrived in the country on tourist visas. They overstayed.

Bey was caught after producing a “world passport” when trying to leave the country.
