Tamás Deák (born May 31, 1976,^[2]) better known by his stage name Speak, is a rap artist, model and actor based in Hungary. He gained considerable fame when the music video for his 2003 anti-war song, "Stop The War", became popularized through video sharing websites. Much of the song's popularity was derived from the manner in which people have ridiculed it.

[edit] Stop The War

Speak is known primarily for his 2003 rap single Stop The War.^[3] A video for this single appeared on the popular website Youtube, and featured other semi-famous musicians.^[4] Some critics lampooned the video, with various commentators labeling the song as unintentional humor^[5] and comparing Speak to the fictional character Borat.^[6] Nonetheless, Speak has gone on to some success touring in Europe.^[7]
