Justin Bieber and All of His Rapper Friends

The Biebs gets all the co-signs.

Friends in Rap Places - Justin Bieber is one of those pop stars that’s figured out a way to always align himself with hip-hop. Inviting Nicki Minaj, Chance the Rapper, Ludacris and other rappers into his music and music videos (never forget Drake in the “Baby” video), Biebs tries his best to be hip-hop. Still, he isn’t a sought out artist for rappers to include on their tracks the way Justin Timberlake has been for Jay Z, 50 Cent, Snoop Dogg, T.I. and other rappers.That still hasn’t stopped the Biebs from making friends with our favorite rappers. Mostly, the kid really does know how to party and that’s a big gold star in hip-hop. Let’s take a look at this Canadian bad boy’s hip-hop friends. – Jon Reyes (Photo by Noam Galai/Getty Images)

Tupac - Just kidding! Tupac probably would never have hung out with the Biebs but it doesn’t mean he can’t be a fan. C’mon, it’s Tupac. On a T-shirt! (Photo: Jeff Kravitz/FilmMagic)

Jay Z - We don’t fault HOV for this one. Maybe it was one of those carpool between spots kind of thing. You know, those times when you blindly take people in your car.(Photo by Olivia Salazar/FilmMagic)
