    In my opinion Mos Def is actually a pretty good actor, not just "good for a rapper" he actually started off acting before rapping.

      Queen Latifah.........

      2Pac's best performance was Gridlock'd

      Mos Def is a good actor

      Ice Cube is limited, but serviceable, but XXX: State of the Union is a steaming turd.

      TI and actor don't belong in the same sentence.

      Snoop Dogg generally plays "himself", but he's done some branching out. Still below average.

      Haven't thought much of Common but he hasn't had too many roles that required much (same as will.i.am)

      Eminem was okay, but keep in mind he was 'playing himself'

      LL and Ludacris could keep careers acting even if they quit music. They're both decent. So was Bow Wow in Roll Bounce and Like Mike.

      Eve had her own sitcom, she would be higher on the list than some of these folks.

      DMX and Nas have had on-screen roles too, but they're not that great.

      Ice-T is straight to video fiya!

        I agree , love the man , in The italian Job. He was cool. And the other one where he plays a chef or something like that. He bakes cakes or something , his role was weird but he played it very well.

          When you can come from a thug rapper saying fu(k the police, to a actor that plays a cop? That means you're a pretty good ass actor.

                    LOL Ice-T can only play bad guys and cops. Every single movie or show.

                    And he's not that convincing either way..........

                    I like the guy though, seems like a fun guy to hang around, and he's DEFINITELY aware of his acting limitations, and producer limitations too. Check out the narrative track over "Corrupt" if you don't agree......
