HEY! Plenty of niggas get their inspiration and stage name from outside sources like games, comics, movies and shit. Alot of them name themselves after those inspirations, like me. Get ready for sckoolin kids (cue Sonic 2 title screen music)...

1. Ghostface Killah (personally one of my top 5 artists): Name originates from the character in a 1979 kung fu movie "Mystery of Chessboxing" aka "Ninja Checkmate". Ghost also calls himself Tony Starks and Ironman, a character from Marvel Comics, and has drawn deep in the Ironman mythology.

2. MF DOOM: Began to rap at open mic events at the Nuyorican Poets Café in 1998 where he obscured his face by putting a stocking over his head. His new identity was influenced by Marvel Comics supervillain Doctor Doom. He wears the mask while performing and isn't photographed without it, except for very short glimpses in videos such as Viktor Vaughn's "Mr. Clean" and in earlier photos with KMD

3. Wu-Tang Clan: The name "Wu-Tang" is derived from the name of the mountain Wu Dang (Wudang Shan) in northwest Hubei Province in central China with long history associated with Chinese culture, especially Taoism, martial arts and medicine. The RZA and Ol' Dirty Bastard adopted the name for the group after the film Shaolin and Wu-Tang. The group's debut album loosely adopted a Shaolin vs. Wu-Tang theme, dividing the album into Shaolin and Wu-Tang sections. The fascination with the Chinese culture is born out of the "Asiatic black man", a term a part of the Five Percenter teachings, also known as the "original man" which is featured on The 5% Album.

4. U-God: He began rhyming under the alias Golden Arms, based on the Kung-Fu movie The Kid with The Golden Arms.

5. J.U.S.T.I.C.E League: Which stands for Just Undeniably Some of The Illest Composers Ever, is a Grammy winning group of hip hop music producers from Tampa, Florida. The group consists of members Rook, Colione, and Kenny "Barto" Bartolomei. Most recently they have been lately producing for Young Buck, Youn Jeezy, Toni Braxton, Mary J. Blige, Rick Ross and many other artists. The group take their name from the fictional DC Comics superhero team the Justice League.


6. Snoop Dogg: His mother nicknamed him "Snoopy" as a child because of the way he dressed and because of his love of the cartoon Peanuts. When he began recording, he took the stage name Snoop Doggy Dogg.

7. Eminem: Come on, even if not on purpose he has the same name as a chocolate candy. And its spelled the exact same way as the candy.

8. Neo Da Matrix: Fairly new producer that has produced a few of Rick Ross's albums and co-produced with Kanye West and his name derives from The Matrix movie.



There's prolly some I didnt even list too.
