Al-A'sha was a jahili bard and one of the Mullaqat composers. He was the most productive poet in his era and was called "The Tambourine" for his rhythmic poetry.
It's said he composed the poem in the video while heading to Medina willing to meet the prophet PBUH and revert to Islam.
He passed by Mecca where the chief leaders of Quraysh tried so hard to dissuade him from joining Muslims' side. They gave him 100 camels as a gift urging him not to become a Muslims because Islam prohibits wine. So he decided to accept their gift and go back to rethink about Islam for another year. But he died months later unfortunately.
