Mutah Beale, better known as Napoleon of Tupac Shakur's infamous rap group

- Mutah Beale also knows as ‘Napoleon’.

It’s always nice to read stories like this, brothers who were once trapped deep in a life of fame, evil, the music industry, the ‘glamour life’, gracefully returning to Allaah by His Permission.

فان الله يضل من يشاء ويهدى من يشاء

For indeed, Allaah sends astray whom He wills and guides whom He wills.

Rapper Napoleon, Islam And African-American Identities

By Nelson Ekujumi

The African-American is a perplexing identity. He is a representative of a people who have lost a line of their ancestry; he is neither an African nor a proper American. He is seen as an inferior and, in his reaction, he becomes the good, the bad and the ugly. This society of a racially irked and socially destroyed people is the burden of the rights activists, rappers, drug barons, prostitutes, and thieves of which Mutah Beale, who took up drug-peddling and rap music to fit into a designed destruction, was a member.

I saw Mutah Beale (formerly known as Napoleon and also 2pac's close friend/Outlawz band member) last night with my fiance and his parents at an Islamic presentation/lecture :) Some things he talked about were how to stay firm in faith, why youth should stay away from the 'gangsta' culture and how to raise our children the islamic way. I should go to more of these lectures.

You might know him as the once famous Napoleon of Tupac's old rap crew, Tha Outlawz. He was a young rowdy short-tempered gangsta rapper who was featured in several of Tupac's records, along with a number of his music videos including the classic diss track "Hit 'Em Up". Well, a lot has changed since then.

Napoleon, or "Mutah Beale" as he now calls himself, has long since abandoned his outlaw image and has become a practicing Muslim, as well as a very well-known motivational speaker throughout the Muslim world. He's been touring all across the world, from America to the UK and down to Australia, in an attempt to influence today's youth not to go down the same road that he did.

Napoleon just recently finished putting together a movie documenting his life and how his experiences in the rap game led him to embrace Islam. After a successful screening of his new film, Life Of An Outlaw, in the UK, he took the time to catch up with The Wrap Up's Hannah O'Connor to discuss his experience in the music biz, his relationship with Tupac Shakur, and how he eventually found peace in the religion of Islam.
