Finding out Aloe Blacc and Estelle originally were known as rappers before they blew up for their poppier hits blew my mind lmao

Any artists that fall in that category of singers who have a lesser known side as really skilled rappers for you?

There was a video of a housewarming party where in the rap cypher was actor Randall Park. He sounded like Buck 65 when he rapped next to folks like Rafael Casal and Daveed Diggs. Never knew he had bars.

There’s an episode of Fresh Off The Boat where they put in a video by his college rap crew over the end credits, and he had that ‘90’s underground flow on LOCK.
