Yafeu Akiyele Fula (October 9, 1977 - November 10, 1996) was a rapper who was part of the American rap group Outlawz, who are best known for their collaborations with Tupac Shakur. Yaki was a long time friend with Tupac since childhood. While part of the Outlawz, he was known by the alias Yaki Kadafi. Fula was born to Yaasmyn Fula and Sekou Odinga in Irvington, New Jersey in 1977. His parents were proud of their African heritage, as suggested by their choice of his name: Yafeu means “bold” in the Fante language of Ghana. He was found dead nearly two months after Tupac's murder, thus only making posthumous appearances since Still I Rise.
