Mohammed Bilal (March 28, 1970 in San Francisco, California) is an African-American musician best known as a castmate on The Real World: San Francisco, the third season of MTV's long-running reality television show.

Of the eight castmates who lived in the Russian Hill house in total, Bilal was the only San Francisco native. He was immediately accepting of castmate Pedro Zamora's homosexuality, because, according to him, one has to be accepting and understanding of it in San Francisco. He appears to be the most low-key and calm member of the house, even when confronting antagonistic housemate and bicycle messenger David "Puck" Rainey, as when Puck criticized gangster rap musicians. Bilal a rap musician himself, perceived Puck"s comments as being directed toward all rap musicians, but Puck later attended a performance by Bilal, and complimented him on his performance, stating that his brand of rap was more positive than those he had mentioned earlier.

Mohammed is a practicing Muslim, and "cleansed" the house of negative energy by lighting incense when Puck was evicted from the house.

He and Puck later experienced a tense moment during the reunion show they participated in a year later, when Bilal assertively told the narcissistic Puck that the persona he adopted was a fictional character, calling him "schizophrenic", and that being a 27-year-old bike messenger, contrary to Puck"s assertions while living in the house, was "not cool". Puck responded that he was retired from that occupation, addressing Bilal as "bitch". This caused a reaction in Bilal, who flipped the baseball cap Puck was wearing in the studio where the reunion was being taped, causing Puck to move to the other side of the stage.
