We interrupt the regular broadcast to address a mildly amusing question. Do top-tier rap artists have any common natal astrological markers? Let's see... Andre 3000 - Mercury squine Pluto Busta Rhymes - Mercury sesquiquadrate Pluto DMX - Mercury squine Pluto Drake - Mercury in Scorpio E-40 - Mercury in Scorpio novile Pluto Eminem - Mercury in Scorpio novile Pluto Future - Mercury novile Pluto 50-Cent - Mercury squine Pluto Game (The) - Mercury in Scorpio Ghostface Killah - Mercury trine Pluto Ice Cube - Mercury in the Eighth House Ice T - Mercury quindecile Pluto Jadakiss - Mercury squine Pluto Jay-Z - Mercury square Pluto Kanye West - Mercury sesquiquadrate Pluto KRS-One - Mercury conjunct Pluto Kendrick Lamar - Mercury trine Pluto Lauryn Hill - Mercury squine Pluto Lecrae - Mercury in Scorpio widely conjunct Pluto Lil Wayne - Mercury conjunct Pluto LL Cool J - Mercury trine Pluto (wide) Ludacris - Mercury decile Pluto, sextile Uranus in Scorpio, sextile Mars Lupe Fiasco - Mercury square Pluto Mac Miller - Mercury septile Pluto Masta Ace - Mercury sextile Pluto Missy Elliott - Mercury sextile Pluto Mos Def - Mercury sextile Pluto Nas - Mercury conjunct Pluto Nicki Minaj - Mercury square Pluto Notorious BIG - Mercury sesquiquadrate Pluto Phife Dawg - Mercury quintile Pluto Prodigy - Mercury (widely) conjunct Pluto Professor Griff - Mercury semisquare Pluto Q-Tip - Mercury opposite Pluto Raekwon - Mercury trine Pluto Rakim - Mercury quincunx Pluto Redman - Mercury trine Pluto Rihanna - Mercury square Pluto (not a "rapper", but...) Queen Latifah - Mercury opposite Pluto Scarface - Mercury sextile Pluto Slick Rick - Mercury squine Pluto Snoop Dogg - Mercury in Scorpio South Park Mexican - Mercury conjunct Pluto Talib Kweli - Mercury conjunct Pluto Tech N9ne - Mercury sextile Pluto TI - Mercury conjunct Pluto Too $hort - Mercury quincunx Pluto Tupac Shakur - Mercury square Pluto The answer appears to be "yes": top-tier rap artists tend to have natal Mercury - Pluto configurations. Mercury is, of course, the astrological planet of language/speech and Pluto is the planet of extremes and intensity. You may notice that the more "intense" and/or seminal artists tend (somewhat) to have stronger aspects. Common sense dictates that exceptions exist... but that without accurate birth times, many charts can not be definitively ruled as exceptions. These have been omitted here (I didn't find many in the "top rappers" lists I checked). Write to me at "alan" + "@" + "zot.net". Weblog Index Home |
