In the past few years, music fans have been much more accepting of their favorite artists going moving into other forms of entertainment.  In Hip-Hop, if we go back 12 years and think about rappers who were in movies and TV show’s, there are only a hand full of rappers who’s record sales did not suffer due to their involvment with TV and Film. Rappers like Tupac Shakur, LL Cool J, and Ice Cube seem to have been the only rappers that could still sell after showing their acting skills. Nowadays, it’s a frenzy!  Rappers are in movies, TV sit-coms, Reality TV shows…it’s crazy!  One of the BEST on-screen rappers of all time is Snoop Dogg.  If Uncle Snoop wasn’t a rap artist, he could very well be a comedian!  His show Fatherhood is some of the best TV I’ve seen as of late.  I was skeptical at first, but have been hooked ever since I got to sit down and watch a full episode.  Snoop, when you retire from rap, please continue to bless us with your on screen presence. Thanks!
