Top Ten Times Rappers Spelled Out Their Names in Songs

Since the dawn of Hip Hop, rappers and emcees have been spelling out their names in songs as a catchy and cool way of introducing themselves. Here are ten of the all-time greatest examples of rappers spelling out their names and nicknames.
The Top Ten
1 Bring It On - Pharoahe Monch (Organized Konfusion)

"Gimme the P-H, gimme the A-R
Gimme the O-A, gimme the H-E, Pharoahe
Crazy poison tip arrows are hittin' you from all directions"..!
These lines come from Pharoahe Monch's first verse of a rhymes battle between he and other half of OK 'Organized Konfusion', Prince Poetry. The energetic flow and intellectual rhymes from the two were just as usual, incredible.

2 Ain't No Half-Steppin' - Big Daddy Kane

"Cause when it comes to bein' dope, hot damn
I got it good, now let me tell you who I am
The B-I-G D-A-double-D-Y K-A-N-E
Dramatic, Asiatic, not like many".
Kane spelt out his name again, a year later on 'Smooth Operator' (1989).

3 G'z And Hustlaz - Snoop Dogg
4 Go With the Flow - CL Smooth (Pete Rock & CL Smooth)
5 Big Poppa - Notorious B.I.G.
6 As the Rhyme Goes On  - Rakim (Eric B. & Rakim)

8 Method Man - Method Man (Wu-Tang Clan)
9 You're da Man - Nas

"I'm the N, the A to the S-I-R If I wasn't, I must've been Escobar". From Nas' Stillmatic, his fifth studio album (2004).

10 Iron God Chamber - Masta Killa
The Contenders
11 Fancy - Iggy Azalea

She literally spells out her name 5 times at the end. I-G-G-Y.
She sucks, but this is a prime instance.
