We know white people love him (#69 on the list of Stuff White People Love) — and now Mos Def is set to play Chuck Berry in the new Cadillac Records movie.

Mos Def joining Beyonce and Gabrielle Union in ‘Cadillac’ just has “hit” written all over it, even before any movie trailer videos are released.

Gotta be a good as Dreamgirls.

Mos Def is so good, so fabulous.

I can just see him jumping around and hear that lick of “Go, Johnny, go!” already.

Rock it, Mos.
