The REAL names of the biggest HipHop celebs

We’re all familiar with the biggest names in HipHop and R’n’B but are they pulling the wool over our eyes?  Here are the real names of the biggest personalities

 

Biggie
Christopher George Latore Wallace
A great name for the true great 

Jay Z
Shawn Corey Carter
Jay often calls himself Mr Carter, so here’s the proof.

 

Eazy E

An ‘Eazy’ flow but we wouldn’t say he was easy going!

Grandmaster Flash
Joseph Saddler
When you’ve got such a grand stage name anything other than that is surprising! 

Dr Dre
Andre Romelle Young
Dr Andre! A great play on words here

The D.O.C.
Tracy Lynn Curry 
Only his last name matches with his stage anagram, but The DOC gave us great tunes! 

Ice T
Tracy Lauren Marrow
It all makes sense now! Tracy gave us many an icey flow.
Ice Cube
O'Shea Jackson
Cali’s finest Ice Cube has a great real name, but who are we to judge!
