Rapper actors that have ok-good acting skills

[Fart Knocker]

Ja Rule partnered well with Steven Seagal

I thought TI did a good job in american gangster and ATL wasn't that bad either for being a kinda corny teenager movie.

Surprised he hasn't gotten more work tbh

I didnt see ATL til years after it came out. I knew nothing about it and went into it thinking it would be a southern version of Killa Season. turns out that shyt was about roller skating

 

[StraxStrax]

Tone Loc
Heavy D

Forgot about Heavy D, he was good in Boston Public

 

[Reggie]

U forgot Ja Rule and Kurupt on your list.

 

[wire28]

Donald Glover

 

[BulletProof]

Out of all the music genres, rappers seem the most successful at acting.

Maybe shows how fake they are.

 

[RJY33]

Pac, ice-t, and cube i think are top of the list

Eminem was good as himself, but would be interested to see what he would have done with another role.

My Top 5 Rapctors:

1.Pac
2.Will
3.Cube
4.Ice T
5.DMX

...if X didn't fall off track. he could have been been a bigger star
Exit Wounds (what he did for hid brotha Drag-On character) is a personal classic

He got a role in the upcoming AntMan movie.

This thread has def. been made but I don't want to up a thread in The Booth. I need The Film Room to discuss this.

Before we start we have to get one thing straight. Will Smith is the best rapper/actor and has awards and box office to back that up. You might think he's corny but the people have spoken on this matter.

So we got

DMX
Mark Wahlberg
Mos Def
Snoop Dogg
Queen Latifah
2pac
LL Cool J
Ludacris
Ice Cube
Ice-T
Diddy
Eminem
Common

These are not all people I think are ok or good, some of them are bad. I'm just throwing names out there and I'm forgetting many I'm sure.

Shaq Diesel I've yet to see Kazaam though.
