Rumors are swirling around the GOP that Mitt Romney might seek the Presidency once again during the 2016 election, granted he can secure the Republican nomination. It's rare to see failed candidates attempt to run again-we haven't had a second-run candidate win since Richard Nixon in 1968-but that doesn't mean he can't do better this time around. To highlight this potential we at Music Times have selected six performers from Romney's favorite genre, hip-hop (EDITOR'S NOTE: we have since realized that the comment from Editor in Chief Emily "Witty" Wittman was in fact a joke.

Bad Habits: Lady Gaga, Nicki Minaj, Gwen Stefani and More Performers with Nun Imagery in Music Videos
Fifty years ago featured a very special guest appearance on NBC's Tarzan, as The Supremes stopped by.
