What rappers became legit/serious actors

[African Peasant]

I ain't talking about succes, but more about skills.

For instance ,50 is a trash actor

Raekwon, I won't talk about it

Pac? His last movies weren't that good, but Juice, Above the Rim and Poetic Justice put in the discussion for being a serious actot

The one I see above the rest is Mos Def? Am I wrong? Who you put above? LL? Cube?

 

[Whips-n-Chains]

Method Man, maybe?
