I'd have to say Ice Cube for his roles in the Friday movies..but definetly for his role in "Are We There Yet"...he blew all the other hip hop actors away with that role...it was showing him as becoming a strong father figure, love, and comedy and it inspired a lot of young people around my area to think more of life....I can't explain it...I just enjoyed that movie....it was romantic and comedic :smoking:


Rock On Ice Cube :rock:

:shocked: How could I forget Will Smith???

*Points gun to head*

I just disgraced my name...Will knocks Cube out to me now....I totally forgot about Smith...Will beats Cube because of his roles in Independence Day, Bad Boys, Bad Boys II, and ummm...I can't remember what else...He's played some very serious roles and always manages to inspire children in his movies...he also shows great encouragment and he basically is the best role model in hip hop artists that star in movies...he always has a message deep within the movie..you just got to dig between the lines...However...Cube is still close with his role in "Are We There Yet?"....but then I'm going to have to add Eminem because he did do an inspiring role in 8 Mile...now it don't come close to comparing with Cube or Smith....but he still is on my list.......


Rock On Cube and Smith :rock:

But Will Smith also wrote a script's story line and starred in it and blew it away...I can't remember what...but he did....I understand your reasoning behind Cube...but Will Smith is just on a higher level of acting...Cube's done more hip hop music and some videos..and Smith has done more acting whether serious or comedic then producing music....Cube has got some amazing songs...but Smith has a few amazing songs...Smith just hasn't really been focusing on his music career, but more on his acting....However Cube is just the opposite...Cube has been focusing somely on his music career and then on his acting...their opposite but stand on the same level in a way..but for me...Smith takes the gold... :hooray:

Ice cube is without question successful in the range of films hes done, I know hes done the latest XXX movie, but most are comdey films or films about da guy chillin wid some comedy like da 3 friday films. At one point Friday 1 an 2 were in my fav. films, but I enjoyed films like meth/red.man HOW HIGH just as much. One of my fav films so far is Above the rim (with tupac) where I feel although 2pac hasnt done as many films as cube he had a v.big presence in that film and was a big part the whole meaning of that film, but I relate to alot of things in that film so It might affect me more than most. So what I have seen of tupac ive been impressed with. But cube has had many succesful films and will prob continue to.

Basically I think they all were good actors - Dre, Snoop, Eminem, Will and so on.. I'd chose Dre for 'The Wash' - cause I liked the way he acted, lmao, he really made me laugh :happy: And of course Will Smith - because.. well.. I like him as an actor, that's why I choose him. And he's handsome :sweating: :sweating:
