As everyone probably knows by now Nelson Mandela is one of the most influential figures not only in the modern era but of all time, he's name is in the history books as the man who did good for humankind.
You'd expect the influence and charisma of Mandela to only rub of people in the political scenes but it goes way beyond that. Mandela has influenced not only black people but all races including whites, Indians, Jewish, Italians and many other races out there.
What's more surprising is that the influence and leadership skills of Mandela went and found a place in rap music. A genre known for being aggressive and hating politics, but with Mandela, they made an exception because he's thee man.
Now without any further ado, let's checkout the many times rappers mentioned Mandela in their lyrics, see images below:
Jay Z
Lil Wayne
Kendrick Lamar
Will Smith
2Pac
