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