John Cena Announces His Mount Rushmore of Iconic Rappers: John Cena, once known as the “Doctor of Thugonomics,” was just dubbed the “Mount Rushmore” of hip-hop legends.
While John Cena is undoubtedly one of the best wrestlers of all time, his rap skills are underappreciated. He would make fun of his opponents while doing freestyle rap as The Doctor of Thugonomics. He just selected the rappers on the music industry’s Mount Rushmore, which makes sense given his history in hip-hop art.
Shannon Sharpe, the host of the Club Shay Shay podcast, recently had the Leader of Cenation talk about the rapper’s gimmick. The sixteen-time World Champion responded as follows when the host asked him to list the best rappers who should be buried on Mount Rushmore:
Thus, as for Jay-Z, Eminem, Nas, Rakim, and me. Rakim’s voice, man. Everybody is biassed. I am aware that the list will undoubtedly spark rioting. Everybody has biases. Everybody has their favourites. That is the unique quality of music.
Cena, who is from Massachusetts, was raised on East Coast boom bap. He loves plays and poetry very much. He claimed that the rapper gimmick was based on it.

John Cena’s 2005 album You Can not See Me was a result of his skill as a rapper. The title was inspired by his well-known slogan of the same name. The song “You Can not See Me” by John Cena also gained popular among meme creators. There were seventeen songs on the entire rap album.
The record had considerable success at that time due to the growing popularity of John Cena. After its release, the album sold an amazing 143000 copies in its first week of release, placing it in the top 20 of Billboard 200.
John Cena sings the entrance music for one of the album’s songs, The Time is Now. For almost twenty years, the song has served as his theme music.
His life and career have always revolved around rapping, particularly during his early WWE days. At one point, he was about to lose his job at the corporation, but his ability to rap rescued his career.
The Leader of Cenation displayed vicious ferocity on his 2002 main roster debut, but he was just another raw talent lacking proper character. Stephanie McMahon came up with the concept for the rapper character, The Doctor of Thugonomics, when she overheard him rapping on the tour bus.
Cena never looked back after introducing the Doctor of Thugonomics shtick. The audience was immediately fascinated by the charisma and the undeniable skill for freestyle rapping. Whether he revives Doctor of Thugonomics on his retirement tour, as The Undertaker did with American Badass before hanging up his boots, is yet to be seen.
