Jay Z’s first protege at his Roc Nation record label, J. Cole is a Renaissance man of the hip-hop craft, a student of the genre and a creator as adept behind the boards as he is behind the mic. Born in 1985, Cole began rapping at 12 and making his own beats at 15, with a sampler given to him by his mother.
Cole’s work ethic and intellect paid off with a scholarship to St. John’s University in New York City; the honors high school graduate (with a 4.2 GPA) chose New York with a rap career in mind, but still graduated with highest honors in communications and business.
Growing up in Hollis, Queens (also the home of Run-DMC), Young MC started rapping at 10 years old, because that was the culture in the air. But he was also the son of hard-working, striving Jamaican immigrants, and slacking off, running the streets, and getting in trouble was not an option. Instead, the bright, dedicated student excelled at Hunter College High School (a secondary school operated by Hunter College) and was accepted into Hunter. Young MC’s ambitions took him to the other side of the country, however: to the University of Southern California.
Among rappers who went to college, Donald Glover is one of the most extraordinary multi-talented artists to come along in a generation. From a network television writing job straight out of college, to starring in Community, to stand-up comedy, to writing, directing, and starring in Atlanta, Glover has to be one of the busiest men in entertainment. Oh, and don’t forget Childish Gambino, his hip-hop alter-ego. As Childish (from an online Wu-Tang name generator), Glover has been one of the most prolific hip-hop artists in the business, and that’s on something that is essentially a side project. Five mixtapes, an EP, and three albums ( Camp, Because the Internet, and “Awaken, My Love!” ), all in less than a decade, have earned Glover a reputation for always having his finger on the pulse of the culture. In 2018, with the release of his extraordinary video for the single “This is America,” Glover went even farther, injecting the Childish Gambino spirit into American consciousness the way that only a superstar can.
He could battle with the best of them, too, and boasted about his brilliance with confidence. Born in Boston, Guru’s father was a judge and his mother the director of libraries for the public school system – a perfect example of upper-middle class black excellence.

Any ranking of the greatest hip-hop lyricists that doesn’t include Talib Kweli near the top is automatically wrong. One of the best rappers with college degrees, Kweli comes by his verbal dexterity honestly, growing up in a highly literate family that includes an English professor (his mother), a college administrator and sociologist (his father), and a law professor (his brother). As a kid, Kweli wrote poetry and stories, getting into rapping only because it was a way for him to be popular in school, but, as with Mos Def, music was largely an afterthought. At NYU, Kweli studied theater like Mos, a childhood friend, and began collaborating with producer DJ Hi-Tek on a project called Reflection Eternal in 1997. Of course, it was getting back together with Mos Def that made 1998’s classic Black Star possible.
