	A lot of rappers I never even heard of were guessable on here, like Eazy-E. Ended up coming down to 7 that I missed.

	I'm very surprised how many people didn't know Snoop's real name.

	rexxriot:	Feb 7th, 2013 at 19:50 GMT		5 points
	How has someone never heard of Eazy-E? That's just sad. I know he's been dead for almost 20 years, but still.

	After seeing the answers, it looks so obvious. But couldn't see it during the quiz.

	Nicki Minaj can hardly be considered a rap artist when Tupac and Eminem are in the same category.

	bigjoeco:	Feb 7th, 2013 at 20:03 GMT		14 points
	@eab21: Many people don't think she should be considered any kind of "artist".

	Snoop Lion? When did Snoop Dogg change his name?

	Ladies love Cool James

	If this was called "Rappers by Birth Name ft: Nate Dogg" it would go gold.

	mattk77:	Feb 7th, 2013 at 20:21 GMT		12 points
	Cornell = Nelly, how did I not see that? It makes so much more sense once you have the answers.

	Aliaune Damala Bouga Time Puru Nacka Lu Lu Lu Badara Akon Thiam? Why would anyone's parents do this to their child. No wonder the poor guy turned out to be a popstar (I know he's a "rapper" but cmon, "smack that" "lonely" etc....)

	Dirtybird:	Feb 7th, 2013 at 21:01 GMT		7 points
	That's just a part of his culture.

	ianbob:	Feb 7th, 2013 at 21:04 GMT		11 points
	Calvin, Clifford, O'Shea and Aubrey: they definitely NEEDED stage names.

	LoveShack:	Feb 7th, 2013 at 21:06 GMT		2 points
	Now which one looks like they have the middle name 'Lu Lu Lu'?... Akon!

	moviegoer74:	Feb 7th, 2013 at 21:25 GMT		13 points
	It's no mere happenstance that Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr. comes up as a question before Darryl Matthews McDaniels, just begging you to pick D.M.C. for the wrong guy.

	I'm just happy to see Hopsin on there!

	Emerald_Fusion:	Feb 7th, 2013 at 21:46 GMT		-4 points
	what about Vanilla Ice?

	Nate Dogg's only regret is that he had but one life to give to singing hooks.

	martipost:	Feb 7th, 2013 at 22:14 GMT		14 points
	I can't believe I missed Akon -- it's right there in his name. I guess I was distracted by the Lu Lu Lu.

	DRB:	Feb 7th, 2013 at 22:39 GMT		3 points
	There's a lot you can get by 'educated guesses' and the really well known ones, but Dwayne Michael Carter not being DMC threw me!

	"Oh, wow, there's no way I'm going to get more than 3 right." /takes quiz 23/25 Oh. It's almost like a word puzzle, there's usually at least some correlation.

	I don't really think that Akon is a rapper, he mostly sings in his songs.

	akabuca96:	Feb 8th, 2013 at 01:17 GMT		4 points
	And nicki minaj is definitely not rap

	PureKStyle:	Feb 8th, 2013 at 01:26 GMT		2 points
	What is the source on Akon's name? I looked it up, and the sources I've found report a much shorter version of his birth name.

	Justin2012951:	Feb 8th, 2013 at 02:15 GMT		2 points
	Akon's name is crazy as ****.

	EKerl_23:	Feb 8th, 2013 at 02:31 GMT		1 point
	Aliaune Damala Bouga Time Puru Nacka Lu Lu Lu Badara Akon Thahiem. Surprised i didn't get that one. Damn.

	What's my motherf*ckin' name? Snoop Doggy Doooggggg (the bomb)

	jayclip:	Feb 8th, 2013 at 03:00 GMT		3 points
	2Pac's "birth name" was Lesane Parish Crooks.
