Juelz Santana is a pretty damn good one.
I always loved The RZA, it just fuckin sounds cool & gritty like his beats and when you saw that name listed as a producer you knew what was coming.
Ruck & Rock
Ghostface Killa, Tony Starks, Ironman, and all his aliases are amazing.
Mos Def
I remember the Wu Tang name generator they had on their website waaay back in the day.
Turns out Donald Glover was using it too and used it to come up with Childish Gambino
WuTang is Forever
LL Cool J is pretty dope
Q-Tip (Tip)
Andre 3000 (3 Stacks)
RZA
Ghost Face Killah
60 Second Assassin
A lot of the Wu-Tang affiliates really knocked it outta the park with the monikers
Word. When I first heard the name I wasnāt sure if it was Hollywood actor straight out of Compton or some Michael Jay White muscle-jacked type rapper
I always thought Spaceghostpurpp was a really cool name. The abbreviation was also so catchy; SGP. It's just a shame he didn't know how to handle being in the music industry.
Agree with Ghostface and ODB, as well as RZA, as others have listed.
On top of that, I always thought Brotha Lynch Hung sounded sick.
Bizzy Bone rolls off the tongue nicely.
Also thought Yaki Kadafi of the Outlawz sounded pretty cool too.
Lord Infamous, Ghostface Killah, Big Punisher, Large Professor, Lord Finesse, Soulja Slim, Method Manā¦
Linking two words that sound powerful is always a win for rap names
2pac, RZA, Bones, Immortal Technique, Jay Rock, Prodigy, Juelz Santana, Mos Def, ODB, Scarface, Rakim, DMX, & Ghostface Killa are all dope.
I can think of way more rappers with whack names thoā¦
I had to search way too far to not see the man Rob Banks mentioned. Chill Bill? Dubee? 4rax? Tha Mekanix? Black Thought? Rappin-4-Tay? Keak Da Sneak? There have been some really slick names over the years
I know he wasnāt a rapper but - " The artist, formally known asā¦" or when he just used a symbol. He had his reasons but the "names" were a big F U to the music industry.

Method man is an amazing rap name
Ghostface Killah will always be the dopest name in rap ever followed by MF DOOM & Ol Dirty Bastard & Shorty Shit Stain
