But yeah i don't think there's any notable examples of this
only ones i can think of are shakewell and ruby from suicideboys, both were in punks band before they started rapping iirc
Prince immediately comes to mind tbh.
Prince's rapping was generally ass but he had charisma and the music was still pretty dope for the most part.
Madonna rapped on that one song
What is Kim Gordon music lol idk if she’s rapping or just saying s***
