The star actor recently chimed in on the everlasting hip hop Mt. Rushmore debate with Complex, and wound up picking a random selection of rappers that managed to make a solid list!!!
Lil Wayne may not have gotten the Super Bowl halftime nod in his own city — but he earned Ben’s top pick for the presidential rock, followed by the late Eazy-E, AKA The Godfather of Gangsta Rap.
Rounding out the list is rap’s golden era storytelling master Slick Rick, who Ben says he grew up listening to … and the culture’s reigning king, Kendrick Lamar!!!
Ben’s picks are super relevant — there’s a chance Slick Rick could be releasing his comeback album this year, and Wayne’s “Carter VI” is slated for June!!!
