When rappers get big on their one gimmicky hit, whether it’s Soulja Boy’s “Crank That” or Chamillinaire’s “Ridin’ Dirty,” they quietly disappear into irrelevance — or so you thought. The reality is that many rappers who haven’t had a hit in a while have actually been hard at work taking over a different industry — the tech world. Seriously, you’ll be surprised to learn how many rappers are now app developers, co-founders of tech companies, or outright making millions investing in Silicon Valley startups. I guess songs about “then superman dat oh” can only get you so far. Below, a few rappers who are now blowing up the tech game.
