Steve Harvey and contestants found themselves in a perplexing situation on a recent episode of Family Feud when some major names were rejected as answers to the question “Who Is the GOAT Rapper?”
On the episode that aired on Tuesday (July 16), singer Meghan Trainor, her husband, actor Daryl Sabara, and vocalist Tori Kelly were among the participants on the popular ABC game show. When Sabara and his opponent Murillo mentioned J. Cole and Kendrick Lamar respectively as answers, their responses were dismissed. This allowed Team Trainor and Team Tori to take the lead.
Despite their widespread recognition, Lil Wayne surprisingly did not make it onto the scoreboard, while 2Pac, The Notorious B.I.G., and JAY-Z did. Steve Harvey even commented that JAY-Z should be at the top of the list and was shocked when he ended up in eighth place. He jokingly said, “Ah, y’all trippin’. We in Rhode Island again? Where we at?”
As the game progressed, JAY-Z’s former rival Nas also failed to make the cut, leading Harvey to remark, “I think you’re thinking as a hip-hop head. I don’t think that’s who answered these questions.”
Eminem secured third place, with Snoop Dogg claiming the number one spot, much to Harvey’s surprise. Other names like Big Z and Drake were mentioned but did not make it onto the list.
Towards the end of the episode, Harvey apologized to the entire hip-hop community, exclaiming, “JAY-Z’s last? What in the world?”
The final three names that were left out were 50 Cent, LL Cool J, who Harvey described as a “bad boy,” and Dr. Dre.
Family Feud seemed to have a rap-themed July as Megan Thee Stallion also made an appearance on a recent episode, adding to the excitement of the show.
