MJ?

Ali every time. No arguement.

weezy baby..
hahahaha

Its just crazy to me that obama is even with these other dudes, and thats a gud thing. OBAMA 08 - 12!!!!!!!!! , also I hope Mike Jordan is in here.

Obama>>>>>>>>>>>Jay-Z

*no homo*

Real talk.

P. Diddy way before Jigga. Diddy and Biggie had style way before Jigga. Jigga was dressed like a ni**@ until like ‘03 and ‘04. Enough with Jay-Z already.

Another vote for style that yall ain’t up on is Kenny Burns - Look his style up.
Peace.

wayne aint on that list cuz he’s too young. just 25. everybody on there are O.Gs lol

Diddy>>>>Jigga>>>Barack>>>>Denzel

Spike Lee

A young Denzel got it all: Handsome, cool, slick, swagger, ladiesman.

I like the Marvin Gaye cover the best!. I’m a big fan of Marvin Gaye and that brotha was cool. But the coolest brotha out there is and has always been Lenny Kravitz but for some reason he didn’t make the cover but I hope he’s on that list or else Ebony isn’t doing their job correclty.

WILL SMITH, aka. Mr. BOX OFFICE!!

@Dre

I agree Lenny Kravitz is the coolest hands down!! lenny is the fucking man!!

Does anyone have the entire list?

na that jayz cover is tight, looking like a boss bout to snap his fingers and make somebody jump thru some hoops
its cool to say jayz like this when we all know what he used to look like.
we seen him go from ashy to classy right b4 our eyes

Obama looks like a black James Bond….Very smooth laidback and cool. Obama is the best cover.

I agree with #11, but most people will think he’s too soft to be cool. He’s the damn fresh prince!

wheres diddy?

Wheres jamie foxx?

I’m glad Puffy isn’t on here - wearing that tired gray suit and black tie.

Ja

I’m sure Diddy is on that 25 Cool Black Men Of All Time list but they didn’t make him a cover though.

I wish Bob Marley could of been on the ebony magazine.

cosign 21

#Undercovermc

I’m postitive most people see Will Smith as cool. He’s a damn cool dude

niggas havent seen jigga first album cover

Where’s ma baby Rick Ross?

why aint will smith on a cover

Let’s face it they only made 8 covers so they couldn’t include everybody. Ebony could’ve picked tons of other brothas from today and the back in the time like Harry Belafonte Sugar Ray Robinson Richard Roundtree (Shaft) and the list goes on and on.

Don’t Obama look presidential coming out that limo. Damn he look like a G for real. He definitely got more swag than Jay to me. He bout to be the leader of the free world in a couple months.
I agree with all the picks for this list. Diddy gotta be on the list. He BEEN had that swag long before Jay-Z, he just fell back these past couple years.

wheres morgan freeman at?

where Michael Clark Duncan & Martin Lawrence?

its gotta be mj cuz who aint wanna be like mike?

damn forgot will smith

your pushin it white boy..every black man in hollywood can’t get on the list

^^^^All right my bad!!! How about we mix it up a lil bit and through in some whitness how about Bruce Willis John Travolta Mel Gibson and Eminem…lol naw im just jokin

The questions is Obama or Hov, I say Obama. Me and my boy was just talkin about this recently. I say if Obama was walkin down the dirtiest street in the worst hood or project with no secret service or security in any city he wouldnt get robbed. Just about everyone else on this list maybe except Ali would get into some altercation lol.

Thats a little off topic but I still think its true. Obama got the most swag cause everyone else on the list is known for money in one way or another. Obama dont have a chain or a movie comin up or a album but hes the most popular black man in history. Already!

ALI>>>DENZEL>>>OBAMA>>>THE REST OF THE GROUP

AND HOLY CRAP JAY-Z IS ONE UGLY MOTHERF*****,THEY DEFINITELY SHOULD HAVE USED A BETTER PIC OF HIM

Obama got my vote. jay is cool and everything but he can’t fuck with Obama. Obama is on anther level.

No DIDDY? Diddy should be one of the first ones on IMO…..

its ludacris that diddy didnt get a cover

I agree wit the people they got on there, but they should of have had Diddy and Will Smith on the covers also. But respect to all those whose doing or who did their thing.

Something is wrong here. Lexington Steele Mr Marcus and Justin Slayer should be recognized as cover boys for God’s sake.

^ IF YOU WEREN’T BORN WITH A PENIS THEN MAY THE LORDS WRATH COME DOWN ON THEE!

LOL @#41. BUT REAL TALK OBAMA, MJ, WILL SMITH, DIDDY AND HARRY BELLAFONTE/RICH ROUNDTRE SHOULDA GOT A COVER SHOT.

PS. SIDNEY POTTIER & MANDELA SHOULD HAVE A COVER SHOT

i know they cant fit everyone on that list but tupac should be on it

Obama over Jay-Z all day everyday.

Anyways,Richard Roundtree was the main dude during the blaxploitation era. For the first time in history we were allowed to do moveis where It was cool to be black in the movies and Shaft was the coolest of them all. Shaft was the definition of “cool” and took coolness to another level so obviously Richard “Shaft” Roundtree should definitely have been on one of the covers.

@Hell Nah….LMAO listing porno brothas HAHAHAHA. BTW I do like Justin Slayers movies lol.

no michael jordan?

ali and hov of course

damn @jscarfo u might as well get bill cosby and his coogie sweaters up there too lol

but mandela def. they should also get some great minds up there, like malcolm x, he was the coolest. mlk was kinda square but aint nothing wrong with that, but brother malcolm was the coolest

^^^ LOL bill cosby kml but i agree with whoever said Morgan freeman cause he just has that swag about him and he’s had it for so long and never lost it

Something is wrong here. Lexington Steele Mr Marcus and Justin Slayer should be recognized as cover boys for God’s sake.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

LMAO!!!! Best post so far

Rev.TD Jakes

@WTF, yeah, Mr. Marcus is the shit. He is the epitome of male jump off but that damn Denzel is the man hands down. He is the man to be seen all around town with.

wheres barnie mac and steve harvey? Those are my dudes!

Terrence Howard

WHERE THE FUCK IS 2PAC AT?
HE HAS TO BE IN THAT LIST, NIGGA INFLUENCED MILLIONS AND HE WAY BETTER THAN GAY-Z

2PAC ALL DAY

where the fuck is ray charle stevie wonder and jamies brown?

I like Hov and Ali, MJ should ne mentioned to…..whoever mentions Wayne is crazy….ya niggas is dick riders lol real talk

makaveli the don of dones should be there

Will Smith is the top on my coolest man.

So, where is the list ?

OBAMA! my nigga hov got swag to. and yeah where is mj and bob marley and tupac. VOTE OBAMA 08

I tell you black folks have really fallen from grace. How in the hell can you compare those who portray boy like qualities like Jay-Z, Tupac, P-Diddy and Nas to mature men of sophistication and elegance like Billy Dee Williams, Denzel Washington, Sidney Poitier. For crying out loud grow the F*@# up, pull your damn pants up and become a man.

I’m goin to give this one to Barack. I love Jay, but Barack has this whole other thing going for him. There’s just something about him that gives him that extra “Mmmph” that Hov doesn’t have.

Between Obama and Denzel.
