Rappers who would've been more successful if they had better names

[Ashtrey]

Kool G Rap? Great name.

Any rapper with Lil' or Young

 

[USSInsiders]

Crooked I, Termanology, Joell Ortiz, Jay Harmonica

 

[the cac mamba]

shorty shytstain

he shoulda blew

 

[Reggie]

Royce the 5'9 is not a good name and I doubt Action Bronson ever blows up either with a name like that.

 

[Raava]

It certainly worked for Tity Boi/2Chainz.

First rapper I thought of...why would he ever in the first place...

 

[OPTiMO]

Joey bad ass needs a name change

 

[criminology]

casey veggies. i dont even like mentioning him to other people.

 

[Hannibal Fox]

I honestly think some rappers' careers have suffered because their rapper names are either not catchy enough, not original enough, or just kind of weird or corny


For example, I think Kool G Rap could've been helped by a better name.

Kool Genius of Rap? Kind of corny. And the abbreviation to "Kool G Rap" doesn't work well either



I think Big L might have had more success if his name wasn't so generic


Add on ...

I think he did ok considering he inspired at least two generations of MC's and influenced countless others.

Kool G Rap is fine, not even close to being a bad name.

Joey Bada$$ is bad for example, dont know how he thought that was a good name to rock with for his career.
