they’ve gone from rocking the mic to
lighting up the screen just a game I’m
just joking around welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’re counting
down our picks for the top 10 rappers
and hip-hop artists turn actors number
10 Eminem kicking off our list is the
controversial rapper who first acted as
a crazed psychopath in 2001’s the wash
probably one day I got this number huh
Eminem must have had a guilty conscience
after that performance but he redeemed
himself with eight-mile which was
loosely based on his own struggles
existing fans and everyday moviegoers
alike were shocked to see Slim Shady
pull off his trademark aggressiveness
while also showing a deep sense of
vulnerability he worked here longer than
me and I get paid more than using dog
take a seat what’s this guy standing in
line for
he ain’t got money to eat number nine
fitty cent get rich or die trying’ was
fitty cent chance to make an eight-mile
type flick and it gave him the
opportunity to prove he was a true P
iymp when it came to acting I’m a PIR P
plus I got the magic stick
several films of varying quality
followed but he did demonstrate his
devotion to acting when he dropped 54
pounds to portray a football player
who’s been diagnosed with cancer in all
things fall apart look I got a handle to
see if I make mistakes I gotta make him
on my own
number eight ludicrous this rapper has
become so comfortable on camera that he
spends as much time on set as he does in
the studio Oh fellas fellas I know my
tags are at a date hey since his first
major role in 2003’s too fast too
furious
Luda has been shakin his money maker in
an ever-widening variety of supporting
roles including romantic comedies like
New Year’s Eve and the oscar-winning
crash I mean look at us dog are we
dressed like gangbangers huh no do we
look threatening no fact if anybody
should be scared around here it’s us
number seven ice-t
he’s famous as an original gangster a
self-professed pimp and a cop killer at
least in his music
the irony is you probably know ice-t
best these days for playing a policeman
okay we admit some of his early films
were painful to watch but he has become
a skilled and believable actor who’s
worthy of his role on Law & Order SVU I
guarantee you’re not gonna like to dress
code in a joint number six snoop dogg
snoop doggy dogg snoop dogg snoop lion
DJ snoop italic whatever his name is
these days what’s my name he remains the
living embodiment of 90s gangsta rap in
spite of his regular attempts at
reinvention and he’s one star who draws
mass attention no matter how minor his
part so snoops come to enjoy playing
laid-back pimp types on screen just
check him out in Starsky and Hutch look
fuzz I gots to buzz this meeting is
adjourned
number five most def aside from his
rapping and his social conscience most
def is well known for his acting career
which started when he was a teen he
eventually made waves with high-profile
projects like The Italian Job The
Hitchhiker’s Guide to the galaxy 16
blocks be kind rewind Cadillac Records
and a memorable part on Dexter it’s cool
we met believe the same thing but
I’m gonna keep over mine but no matter
what the project or how similar the
character most def brings a sense of
innocence and freshness to every outing
okay don’t think nobody think no ideas
no theories no nothing
number four LL Cool J known for his cool
moves and his hot bod no stink sauce
LL Cool J made the transition to acting
with films like 1991’s the hard way as
well as a sitcom in the house this led
to many other roles not to mention the
horror flicks and while he may not be
able to live without his radio we can’t
live without him on our TVs on NCIS Los
Angeles just don’t call it a comeback
number three Ice Cube he may have come
straight out of Compton but he used that
experience to great effect for his debut
acting role in Boyz in the hood I don’t
care but what’s going on in the hood
cube then showed off his comedic talents
as an actor and writer with his popular
Friday film series and has gone on to
have a fruitful acting career that spans
everything from horror to drama Danny
how work does it work take care whatever
you put some fun no questions asked
number two Queen Latifah this human
beatbox is the only woman on our list
clay and is a symbol of female strength
who brings natural charisma to every
role her debut was in Spike Lee’s 1991
flipped jungle fever and since then
she’s become a mainstream success with
awards and nominations including Oscar
consideration for 2002 s
Chicago family to me like one of my own
do for 50 bucks
she’s also managed to become one of
hip-hop’s most positive icons number one
Will Smith
Big Willie stache
with it taking the top spot on our list
is this family-friendly rapper who burst
onto the scene with his sitcom The Fresh
Prince of bel-air I mean I’m a joker I
play around I have fun Smith then set
his sights on becoming a major Hollywood
superstar all in Big Willie style along
the way he conquered the action and
sci-fi genres gave oscar-nominated
performances and generated several
billion dollars in global box office
revenue he truly is the one to beat
