Many rappers have ventured beyond the mic to showcase their love for cooking, and we are absolutely here for it. 

Whether they have transitioned to cooking professionally or simply for fun, fans are enjoying the content.  Snoop Dogg is one rapper who has embraced the culinary world.  His cookbook, “From Crook to Cook,” features comfort food recipes and reflects his laid-back, West Coast vibe.  He even co-hosted his famous cooking show with Martha Stewart, where their on-screen chemistry became legendary.

Back in 2013, 2 Chainz dropped his cookbook #MEALTIME,” in conjunction with his “B.O.A.T.S. II: Me Time.” The 14-recipe guide included delicious dishes such as herb-crusted lamb chops and teriyaki salmon.  Additionally, he has entered the culinary arena with his ESCO Restaurant and Tapas in Atlanta.
