25 Rappers You Should Be Following On Instagram

Social media plays a big part in today's rap game. It's how guys like 50 Cent and Joe Budden are able to stay on our minds year 'round. Some are funny like Tyler the Creator, some like animals like French Montana, and others like Evidence use it to show off their camera skills. We picked a bunch of our favorite rappers for you guys to follow. Some will make you laugh, some will make you cry, either way, you will be entertained. Check out our list of 25 rappers to follow on Instagram.

Retchy P is a New Jersey rapper who took the game by surprise with his Thelonious Martin-produced tape Polo Sporting Goods. Little did we know that his charisma off the mic would hold our attention. His Instagram is filled with shots from his vintage Polo collection, drugs, and videos of him smoking dope with various cab drivers. He also enjoys performing on shoulders. Porter won't disappoint.

Hands down the best rapper photographer in the game. Ev's feed is filled with majestic shots of city landscapes that would make 13th Witness hit the like button. We should interview Evidence about the apps he uses.

Thirst traps, sneak pics of her video shoots, funny photoshops of said thirst traps and sneak pics. Nicki Minaj is a brick house. Follow her now.

Cam is a funny dude, as we all already know. He uses his IG to throw little, playful jabs at Nick Cannon, make fun of people by using memes, and pics of JuJu (which we appreciate the most.)

Instagram: (@spitta_andretti)

Curren$y posts nothing but car and dog pics and we aren't mad at it. His fetish for classic American muscle shows that he lives his raps. His Instagram is like his music: very chill. What we enjoy most, though, are his impressive miniature cast car shots.

Instagram: (@snoopdogg)

We're convinced that Snoop just chills in his crib taking selfies while he smokes massive blunts. He'll post memes, videos of gospel shoes, and pics of his new friend, Todd.

Tyler is weirdo and he likes it that way. Random selfies with the lazy peace sign, pics of him stanning over his favorite celebs, and videos of mischief with his Odd Future brothers. Follow him for laughs, but be careful if you have a weak stomach or are not into people with sick sense of humors.

Instagram: (@dareallambo)

He's dating LeBron's mom or engaged to her? We're not completly sure. But one thing is for sure, Lambo is fucking entertaining. Whether it's his sick pic stitch game or his rap IG videos, he's a fun follow.

Instagram: (@iamdiddy)

This is a no brainer. How are you a rap fan and don't follow Puffy? Like, get your life. Sean Combs will show you the proper way to be great. That plane up there has a gym in it. It's basically a mansion with wings. But the video of him having breakfast before his Howard commencement speech is enshrined in the IG Hall of Fame.

Instagram: (@killermikegto)

Killer Mike is one of our favorite people, fuck rap. He's shown that he's very knowledgeable on social issues and isn't afraid to speak his mind. He stepped up to the plate and surprised critics of rap when he went on CNN and showed that rappers are much more than the stereotypes the media pushes. You'll find pics of his travels and history lessons in his captions.

Instagram: (@joebudden)

Joe Budden has dated so many Spanish girls that he's basically Dominican. He's out here stealing phones and frequenting hookah spots. But for real, Joey basically invented the social media game for rappers. He's honest and we fuck with him for it.

Instagram: (@thuggerthugger1)

Thugger will weird you out, not going to lie. His captions are a bit ambiguous, but we're not here to judge. If you like a good money phone pic/video, then he is your guy.

Instagram: (@50Cent)

50 is a genius, but you already knew that. He uses Instagram to keep his name in the mix and it's been instrumental in G-Unit's reunion. His Mayweather slander is really the only reason to follow him, though.

Instagram: (@ilovemakonnen)

Makonnen is new to some of you. He's been in NYC for the last couple weeks, and the success of his song "Tuesday" has led to an OVO signing. But what we like most is the trippy app his uses.

Instagram: (@therealkiss)

If you appreciate waves, follow Jada. He has a bunch of pics him wearing durags. Kiss also shut the Internet down with that famous selfie above. Our friends the Durag Hunters have a new favorite rapper account.

Instagram: (@soapmanwun)

Like Tyler, Earl takes the best selfies. And he's also a decent skater.

Instagram: (@champagnepapi)

Drake is all about mood. He posts beautiful pics of his shows and isn't afraid to poke fun at himself.

Instagram: (@bambambaklava)

Food, sneakers, dab hits, and rare squats. If you're not a fan of Action Bronson, you should be viewed as a threat to national security.

Instagram: (@jodyhighroller)

He's Riff Raff, shouldn't that be enough?

Instagram: (@travisscott)

Travis is on his way to the moon. His tape Days Before Rodeo is arguably the best rap project to drop this year, and he is one of the best stage performers out. He also posts nudes he gets in his IG Direct but he'll delete them so you gotta be quick with those screenshots.

Instagram: (@wakaflockabsm)

Waka performs snippets of his new songs on IG video. How can you not fuck with that? Those 15-second clips will make you want to catch a case so be careful.

Instagram: (@souljaboy)

Soulja will teach you lessons about swag. But you probably don't deserve them to be honest.

Instagram: (@frenchmontana​)

French might like animals more than he likes to stunt. He has a bunch of pics of the homie Julius, and other members of the animal kingdom. He also posts funny vids like the one below.

Instagram: (@trickdaddydollars)

Trick Daddy is probably the most important follow. He cooks, he has words of wisdom, and he loves eating booty. He announced EatABooty Day on his Instagram. That's an instant follow. And make sure to say his cooking video sign off after the booty is eaten. Hahahaaaaa.

Instagram: (@iambenzino)

I wanted to put Benzino on the list and was asked, Why? My answer: he is rap. Say what you want about Love & Hip-Hop, that show is fucking genius and Benzino is an entertaining cat whether realizes it or not. The selfie king will take them anywhere. The hospital bed, the elevator on his way to Ferguson, in front of the Aston, doesn't matter. And he still raps.
