2 Chainz represents his second chance at making a name for himself and at the age of 35, he already had a whole decade of a career under the name Tity Boi with Ludacris’ DTP so he had to go with a more family friendly name in order to help his brand hit the mainstream in his second go around. One of the best branding jobs in modern day rap
MF DOOM is also perfect because MF stands for Metal Face when he’s rapping or Metal Fingers when he’s producing. Not only that, but he wore a metal mask
I agree with Travis Scott’s name sounding like a superhero name with those 2 first names. I could never put it into words but that’s how I’ve felt for YEARS.
“Boogie” is a common nickname in the Bronx, especially with the Bronx being referred as the “Boogie Down Bronx”, even my nickname with my friends is “Ty Boogie” 😅
There's a more meaningful reason for Royce to include 5 9 in his name, in his song "Tabernacle" he discusses his grandmother dying on the fifth floor of a hospital and his first son being born on the ninth. That's pretty dope I think
This is actually my main point of contention for this video. Eminem is probably one of the best names in rap. 1) It's his initials 2) Association with the candy, making it easy to remember 3) Rolls off the tongue easy 4) It's unique I don't even like dudes music like that, but his name is top tier. Juice Wrld is a horrible name, but I still like his music.
@@Maxipadtriplesix juice WRLD is not a terrible name you tweak, juice is a reference from the Tupac movie called “Juice”, and the Juice is also a reference to a guy named “MC Juice”, also known as the only guy that has ever beat Eminem in a rap battle. You can google it. And juice took over he world like the WRLD in his name, in a year and a half of fame. Eminem did the same thing in the early 2000’s but the only difference is Eminem survived his overdoes and juice didn’t :(
Eminem's name can also be derived from the word Eminence which is a noun that describes "fame or recognized superiority, especially within a particular sphere or profession." according to google
Its a far better name than they gave it credit for. It means that and M and M for his actual name Marshall Mathers. Simple, relevant and a nice play on words
ODB has the best rapper name of all time in my opinion. Putting it in his name and making it part of his identity is so fire where trolling him or using it against him doesn't even make sense. It adds a sense of pride too to who he was and what he had to go through. Fire.
I’m pretty sure a boogie came from a tv show or movie that he used to really like growing up, and then he liked wearing a hoodie. I remember hearing it in an interview
I’m really curious what you guys think about the name Joey badass, tbh I have always been mixed about the name, but the music makes up for my thoughts on it
theres also a slight layer to it in that b4da$$ = before the money, which is apparent on his debut album B4.DA.$$. not sure if this was intended originally when choosing the name, or if its something that worked out quite nicely as an entendre in the album name, but cool lil fun fact regardless.
Royce on "Tabernacle" discusses his grandmother dying on the fifth floor of a hospital and his first son being born on the ninth. definitely not mid or bad
I feel like if names like Megan Thee Stallion and Earl Sweatshirt were used in the same generation as Notorious B. I. G, Rapsody, and 50 Cent they would have ranked way higher.
I thought 2 chains was a reference to dna, the double helix chains. There's more explanation but I think that name is goated. Plus it sounds dope when he s announces it in his bars
Alliteration is when the first letter is repeated. Assonance is when a vowel sound is repeated like the "i" and "a" sound in skippa da flippa (there is also consonance where consonant sounds are repeated)
For the Eminem backstory you should’ve talked about how his name goes as Every Mother Is Nice Except Mine. This is a really influential name because of the backstory with his incredible 3 album run and especially in Relapse he mentions his mom a few times aswell as in the song “My Mom” I think it should be in a better position than good and i would go amazing atleast.
A Boogie is broken down like this….his first name is Literally Artist so there’s the A….he’s from HighBridge Projects in The Bronx New York which is a known as the “Boogie Down Bronx”….and of course as you’ve heard he’s known for wearing hella hoodies…so that’s why A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie is his name….I say it’s in the hood tier adding up all the factors
A boogie was a fictional drug dealer based on a real dealer by the name of AZ but also as someone stated on here stated before me, boogie is a common nickname for dudes in the bronx
My least favorite rap name is probably Skippa da Flippa. Out here sounding like a drug dealing dolphin.
😂😂
holy shet dude lol

nah lil poopy was just awful

Inspectah Deck is a mix name
I always found ODB to be a terrible name 🤣

MF DOOM is also perfect because MF stands for Metal Face when he’s rapping or Metal Fingers when he’s producing. Not only that, but he wore a metal mask
But he could also be calling himself a motherfucker. “Motherfuckin’ Doom” Triple entendre

And doom because he is evil

Marshal Mathers would have been a sick official rap name. Eminem is a fine name we're just use to it.

That's a HUGE reach
@@ermias2782You really think it’s a reach given how Eminem is a king of wordplay and how the eminence definition fits him perfectly?
A Boogie is a reference to Ace Boogie from the movie Paid in Full. I think he just added Wit the Hoodie because he really likes hoodies.

that would be hours long

MF DOOMs name and presence in rap is legendary, there’s so much weight to it.
NFR Gang always comes thru w the banger vids on a Monday ! Big smoking out here in Cali! much love Ant n Lu n NFR team🔥💨
Flo Rida might have the best rap name of all time if you think about it.
It's clever af tbh, all jokes aside

Do a producer tag tier list video
Need that 🔥
They beefin over names and candy now😂
In my country in South Africa 6ix 9ine means peeing 🤣🤣🤣
EMINEM stands for
Every
Mother
Is
Nice
Except
Mine.
I’m pretty sure a boogie came from a tv show or movie that he used to really like growing up, and then he liked wearing a hoodie. I remember hearing it in an interview
Lil Dicky definitely had a big explosion........
I'd put Eminem at perfect cause I feel like its perfect to fit into a rhyme and its pretty original but that's just my opinion
and it mean “Every Mom Is Nice Exepct Mine”
I’m really curious what you guys think about the name Joey badass, tbh I have always been mixed about the name, but the music makes up for my thoughts on it
Idk names that make you question it are cool. Like is Joey really a badass? Well now tou have to listen to the music to find out...
joey badass is a good name i like it, because it is so simple but still feeds well into his 90s aesthetics and album covers i thhink
theres also a slight layer to it in that b4da$$ = before the money, which is apparent on his debut album B4.DA.$$. not sure if this was intended originally when choosing the name, or if its something that worked out quite nicely as an entendre in the album name, but cool lil fun fact regardless.

Another cool thing about DOOM's name is that the MF stands for Metal Face when rapping and Metal Fingers when producing

earl sweatshirt is a fire name
Funny ass video. Lost it at Pooh Shiesty 🤣
This one actually has a cool backstory
34:30 Y’all said “jue” 🤣🤣😂💯 I love it it’s pronounced “Hew-ee” like family guy Stewy
chief keefs name is keith cozart too so its also like chief keith when spoken
Earl sweatshirt is iconic bro
Eminem had the name M&M because they're his initials.
They said that…literally one of the first things they said, did you even watch the video?
Huey??? “Hey” 💀
10:25 Lu is on another level 😭😭
the sweatshirt part of his names comes from an artist he likes, james pants
How did y’all now know lil pump probably named himself after a gun reference
Everybody's Mom Is Nice Except Mine - EMINEM. Great name imo.
First time i heard pooh sheisty i thought it was spelled Push Icetea
Them pronouncing “Huey” like that is actually insane
Love your atom pic rattpack boiii
funniest shit
I mean that’s one way to pronounce Huey
The pronunciation of Huey had me dead.
I thought 2 chains was a reference to dna, the double helix chains. There's more explanation but I think that name is goated. Plus it sounds dope when he s announces it in his bars
Royce Da 5'9 is terrible, I've always thought that was one of the worst rap names 🤣
Eminem is S tier
i believe a boogie got his name from the amazing movie “paid in full” because there’s a character named ace boogie in the movie.
The Rappers need to stop adding Lil,Big,Kid,MC,Young or Yung to their Rap Names Because it makes it look stupid
XXXTENTACION and Conway The Machine are the hardest names I’ve ever heard in rap
facts
xxx as dope, but it sounds too xboxlive to me haha
I mean this is Not For Radio, is a perfect name
I never heard this dudes mention wiz khalifa we all enjoyed his music 2011-15 didn't we? Put some respect on my man.
Bruh I lost my shit when as soon as you both brought up Lil Xan you just say “that name should be f**king illegal” 😂😂
Not only cause of the juice wlrd cause of the movie but also because of juice cause that's the only guy that beat Eminem in a rap battle
looking back, why is this the best video ever to exist on RUclips

"H-U-E-Y"

Skippa Da Flippa is assonance not alliteration. That’s all I wanted to say lol
I always thought if Big Boi had a name as cool as Andre 3000 he’d be regarded as more of a goat than Andre
Alliteration is when the first letter is repeated. Assonance is when a vowel sound is repeated like the "i" and "a" sound in skippa da flippa
(there is also consonance where consonant sounds are repeated)
