50 Rap Songs That Would Be Bad Ass Entrance Music

 

Since Pro Wrestling has embraced entrance music popular songs have often been used as wrestler themes. Rap songs for one reason or another have not been used as frequently. New Jack's theme song in ECW was Ice Cube's Natural Born Killas. While The Gunn Club did an entrance earlier this year in AEW to 50 Cent's Many Men. While Hook's theme is Action Bronson's Chairman's Intent Scott Hall famously use to enter the ring to the Fugee's Ready Or Not during non-televised WCW events and times he appeared in ECW and overseas. During Master P's deal with WCW, The No Limit Soldiers came out to Hoody Hoo.

With today being the 50th Anniversary of Hip Hop. I thought of 50 rap songs that would excellent wrestler theme songs. Some would be good for just one time entrances, others could be just good entrances in general. I didn't associate the songs chosen with any particular wrestler, I'll leave that up to readers to envision. Like we use to do creating wrestlers and giving them songs on Xbox and ps3.

The rankings don't matter in this instance, I just wrote them to keep track of the songs. So, here we go! 

50. 5 star bitch-Yo Gotti ft. Trina, Gucci Mane, & Nicki Minjai

Ok, starting off with this song. It's a tad ratchet and some downright hate it, but there are a lot of women who are confident enough to make this their anthem. If walking to the ring let's your opponent know you are top tier, coming through the curtains to 5 Star Bitch  will get the message across. 

49. Real N***a, Roll Cool-Lil' Jon Eastside Boys & Ice Cube

Back during the height of the crunk era when Lil' Jon was everywhere, this song use to get me HYPED. It's aggressive and loud, and the theme song could be used for a solo act, tag team or action. It's simply a call for the real one's to show up.

48. Luchini This Is It-Camp Lo

Luchini was spitting facts on this mid-90's classic, thing is nobody really knows what their saying. Anywho, this high energy song is perfect for a high energy wrestling persona that loves to entertain, who come through the curtains fired up and doing a little boogie to the ring.

47. Power-SNAP

I'm not sure it's ever been explained or if anyone really knows what "The Power" is, but once that beat blares through the speakers a massive surge of energy flows through anyone listening. It's also a motivational song, so any wrestler walking through the curtain to this song would feel invincible.

46. I Made It-Kevin Rudolf ft. Lil' Wayne

This rap/rock fusion by Cash Money artist Kevin Rudolf and Lil' Wayne was used in Wrestlemania 26's promotional video . It's infectious and another song that just get's you hyped and ready to do all kind of unbelievable acrobatic flips in the squared circle.

45. I don't like-Chief Keef ft. Lil Reese

Sonic boom coming through the speakers, rappers laying down the dumb shit they don't know. Which could very be well the reason they don't like the person they are about to face off against. Which makes this song another good choice.

44. Icon-Jaden Smith

Ready to make a statement coming through the curtain? Have this song by the son of the Fresh Prince as your theme song. Let people know a icon is on the way.

43. Sound Off-Slaughterhouse

The opening blare from the horns are classic enough. Then Slaughterhouse one by one lays down lyrically perfection over the beats. If a wrestler walked out to this, it just personifies confidence. 

42. Clique-Kanye West ft. Big Sean & Jay-Z

A faction of wrestlers coming to the ring, letting people know they are not to be messed with. Enough said.

This is another Lil' Jon classic that use to get me HYPED. This song is made for getting ready to start some shit and let the adrenaline flow through your veins.  

39. No Problem-Chance The Rapper feat. Lil' Wayne & 2 Chainz

Simple I'm coming to the ring to lay hands, but honestly you don't want this smoke.

38. No Problem-Lil Scrappy

Same message applies as above. You can step towards me but you really don't want what's about to happen.

An important aspect of being a wrestler or a character for that matter is exuding confidence. This song set's the tone that coming through the curtain you are da' man.

36. Airplanes-B.O.B.

Airplanes would be the perfect song for a wrestler finally getting their world title opportunity, as they head to the ring for that match. The song perfectly shares a journey and the power of dreaming, which sometimes you need to remember your dreams to push you forward.

35. I Go To Work-Kool Moe Dee

The opening beat is enough to let one know an avalanche of ass whipping is coming. Kool Moe Dee's flow makes it even better. 

34. I'm So Paid-Akon feat. Lil' Wayne & Jeezy

Pro wrestling is full of filthy rich characters (Ted Dibiase, JBL, MVP, MJF), so it's only right a wrestler's who act is that they are rich. Strut to the ring letting everyone know how much money they have.

This is an woman empowerment track by one of the first vicious female MC's. Step out the way I'm here to make a statement.

It's really something about blaring horns that amplifies a beat. This is one song that sets the mood for some shit that is about to go down.

This slowed down right eerie beat, against Twista's rapid fire flow. Sets the mood to get a wrestler hyped, while his opponent may not know what to expect.

25. Jack Move-Fabolous feat. Paul Cain, Red Cafe, Freck Billionaire, 

This is a true street anthem, but it can easily be translated to a wrestling entrance. It's all a mind game, your about to get jacked for that title your possessing so get ready. 

24. Savage (remix)-Megan Thee Stallion feat. Beyonce

Come on now. If WWE allowed Bianca to walk to the ring as a special entrance to this banger people would go nuts. It would work though for any female who is about their shit and not ashamed to back it up.

Another song with a banging beat but that's more about the mind games. I am a god, I'm better than you bow to me or take this ass whipping.

8. Trophies-Drake

If Jay Rock's Win is the song to remind you to win at all costs. Trophies is the song one has as their theme song, when all that winning has netted more than one championship and several accolades. Also, more horns blaring in a song.

Watch your back, protect that neck cause I'm coming for blood and wrecking havoc in several ways. Enough said.

The mid 2000's anthem of if you bout that life and ready to fight, come get these hands.

1. Victory-Notorious B.I.G. feat. Puff Daddy & Busta Rhymes

Victory samples Going The Distance which everyone knows is essentially the theme to the Rocky film series. It get's the blood flowing, adrenaline pumping, and ready to take on any obstacles ready to overcome all odds, and come out the victor.
