From blockbuster superstars to one-hit wonders, here’s your complete guide to every rapper who went from the stage to a screen near you.

Long before Queen Latifah became Oscar-nominated and Will Smith finally won an Oscar, they were Hip-Hop pioneers. Since rap’s inception, many of its biggest and most notable acts have expanded their careers outside of music and became household names within television and film.

Many actors got their start on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit — well any part of the Law & Order franchise — but Ice-T is one of its longest-running cast members. There are those who only have a handful of acting credits like Rah Digga and The Lady Of Rage, while others like Fredro Starr, LL Cool J, Eve, and Drake have starred in classic sitcoms like Moesha, In The House, Eve, and Degrassi: The Next Generation.

Meanwhile, some are still making history like Common — who is only one Tony away from becoming an EGOT winner.

Check out a full breakdown of every rapper turned actor from 50 Cent to yasiin bey.
