Jennifer Hudson, Ice Cube, Ludacris and Donald Glover have a lot in common.
They’re black; they’re entertainers; and they’ve all found success in music and film/television.
Billboard decided to spotlight this distinction in its first-ever Double Threats issue, which pays homage to multi-hyphenated entertainers.
Check out their photos below.
Jennifer Hudson won an Academy Award for her first film role in Dreamgirls, and she won a Grammy for her debut album Jennifer Hudson.
Donald Glover, who also goes by the name Childish Gambino, has appeared on episodes of Community, Girls and 30 Rock. He released his second album Because the Internet in December 2013.
Ice Cube is quite simply the man. His debut album has sold more than 2 million copies in America, and he’s starred in countless films, including 21 Jump Street, Ride Along with Kevin Hart and the entire Friday franchise.
Ludacris has released eight studio albums, is a fixture in the Fast & Furious franchise and his film Crash won Best Picture at the 78th Academy Awards.
