Which rapper is the best actor? (Besides Will Smith)

[DarthRozay]

William Roberts deserves an oscar for his masterful acting as Rick Ross the rapper. I've never even heard of an actor staying in character for so long, and doing it so well. His only slip up was when they revealed he used to be a C.O. that caused some people to stop seeing the character and see the real man. But I understand, being a great actor doesn't pay big, especially in the early days, so he had to do what he had to do. Get a "real" job and make some money. Still one of the best actors out today, watch out Denzel!

I seen Mark Whalberg... By now, his acting career is more known than his rapping.

2pac was on another level. He was better than will smith. All that '2 sides of tpac' stuff would have come out in film roles

marky mark is the best rapping actor....will smith makes garbage movies

 

[JerfyT]

Wahlberg and Smith are the best. How has nobody mentioned Eminem?

 

[5 Grand]

Will Smith is the only rapper that consistently stars in blockbuster movies.

At one point in time he starred in the #1 and #2 selling movies of all time, Men in Black and Independence Day. Then the Star Wars trilogy and the Harry Potter series replaced him so that statistic is no longer true.

 

[Say What]

Will, Mark, and QL are on another level. Mos played the most challenging roles. Common was straight in he'll on wheels too. LL plays a lot of the same thing too

 

[macadonwoo]

Eminem
