Bill Blast and Vandy C (ditto)
Maestro Fresh-Wes
Granddaddy I.U.
Brainsick Mob (just awful!)
Pop Da Brown Hornet
Smiley Da Ghetto Child (has to be one of the worst!)
Mos Def (actually a pretty uncatchy name IMO)

and probably the wackest name ever...

Sir Mix-A-Lot

You left out a bunch. Who could forget the lyrical onslaught and
cavalcade of Source ads for none others than WHITE DAWG, the hardest
rapper to ever come out of Miami. Well, other than Luke, and Trick Daddy
and basically every other Miami rapper.

The WhoRidas is a wack-ass name too. Is it just me, or Saafir the ONLY
thing to care about in Hobo Junction?

All the BNTH rappers have wack-ass names. Layzie, Krayzie, Wish, Bizzy,
Flesh n', Stiffy..

Blinky Blink may take the cake as the all time shittiest. Ever notice
how as soon as Ma$e retired no one cared about his drag queen sister and
their stupid friends? (as if they did in the first place)

Dark Man X is a wack name too. Ever notice how many good emcees usually
have good names?

Drag-On is a stupid ass name, and the funny thing is, it pretty much
describes his fucking style, too..

Seff The Gaffla? Just keep reading it over and over, and try not to
laugh.

Young Soldierz sounds dumb as hell. But, I think Dinco D of L.O.N.S.
might have the wackest name ever.

Yeah, you hit on most of the ones I was thinking.
Number one for me has to be "DA tear da club up thugz".
Actaully, any names that use a "Z" in place of an "S" are
pretty wack.

Other's wack names include:
Mr. Eon
Lady Luck
Ice Cube, Ice-T, Vanilla Ice (generally anything with "ice" in it),
Orko The Sykotik Alien
+ any other name that follows the pattern: <first name> da <adjective>
<noun>
Big Noyd
Sporty Theives
Da Cella Dwellas
Puff Daddy
Master P, Slikk Da Shocker, Hot Boys (generally any names from No Limit and
Cash Money),
Cuban Link
+ anyone named after a middle-eastern dictator
+ anyone with "Lil" or "Big" as a prefix to their name
+ anyone with thier name tatooed on thier stomach


The dopest names are always the "simple" ones:
Juice
Evidence
Redman
Proof
Pete Rock
El-P
Slug
Common Sense
Black Thought
Sole
Planet Asia
Rasco
Pedestrian
Cage, etc......

In the same case, Cella Dwellas have now shortened it to a not-great, but
better The Dwellas.

Whats wrong with "Big"??

Big is best! U better not be mocking the one known as Big AL!
I think that i might have to revert back to "Amokachi" or even my real name
if the commencement of the name calling continues for much longer!

don't see much wrong with this.

even worse when spelled "Funkee" like on the first lp. Glad he's just
Del now - this name made it possible for Kool Keith (pretty wack name
too) to diss him hard ("with the word H-O-M-O spelled in your name")

and dope names
> Sixty Second Assasin

hell yeah! Always loved this - I think it loks dope when misspelled
"62nd Assinator" too

> Scaramanga

Operatic names are dope. Much better than Sir Menelik!

anybody with "lil'" and "big" in their name is wack-- except for big boi.
nothing wack about him. the tightest name is ol' dirty bastard. he
couldn't pick a better name to describe himself. i'd have a lot more
respect for any rapper that didn't even use a nickname.

As you can tell... I LOVE THIS POST. Best post - funwise - in a long

It seems the Bay Area is a hotbed for wack names, you've named a grip,
here's 3 more:
FlyMar
Young Cellski
Ray Luv - what area does this cat repp? Castro?!?
(it seems the only way to go in the Bay is to either have a wack name, or
bite your name a la AdRoc from Totally Insane and the many incarnations
of bay area Dre's.)

and finally (for now,) from Beantown, a contender for the worst name
ever:

For some reason I dig the name Young Bleed alot, and I also like his
single for some reason, it's got a rugged ass low-budget country feel to
it, and I like his lazy ass laid back yet descriptive flow.

Hershey Loc

Gillie Da Kid

Another sem-homie. I engineered two tracks for him several years ago. I got

What you're missing is, all those cats are named Andre. Dre has been used as

There are more than a couple. Erick Sermon is Erick Sermon.
Keith Murray is Keith Murray. I think Paula Perry is too.
Others fail me at the moment.

*rolls eyes* To the five or six skits and interludes
on "Supreme Clientele" which refer to Tony Stark in the kind of
language seen in episodes of the X-Men... didja think they recorded
them all from scratch? No, they were sampling IRON MAN shit.
Stark Enterprises, Tony Stark, the Iron Man - Ghostface's entire
alter-ego is borrowed from the only great comic never to be made
into a movie (and hopefully never will, since they'd probably fuck
it up like they did Judge Dredd).

Actually they are doing an Iron Man movie. For the life of my ass, I can't
remeber where I saw this, but I'm sure I didn't dream it. It was some TV
thing about other heroes being turned into movies and they talked about Iron
Man, I'm sure there was a clip (?!?)....

and for a couple of years he was just that.

JT was runnin' shit if Frisco back in the day.....I'm talking about music, of
course; not no real live ballin' shit. He was putting out an album every
couple of weeks, selling 10-20k consistently. Doesn't sound like much but it
all went in his pocket. He was making more off 20,000 copies than most
multi-platinum artists....
