I agree with the first three and Ali, although I'd call them cool men, not just cool black men. Denzel and Jay Z are just not cool in my book, they are manufactured. Obama is as uncool as any typical politician. As for Prince, never understood why he never got much love from urban radio, the guy is easily one of the most talented musicians of our time.

Prince is the epitomie of cool, the guy can do whatever he wants, and no single person questions him.

........who else you know can wear pants with the butt out and high heels, and yet is widely known to be banging all kinds of chicks......now that's cool!

I remember his sister, Buffalo stance? Buffalo something. He is about as cool as Obama.

Any Black women's mag rating anything having to do with men will rank Denzel highly. I think Jay is pretty cool, I can't see where you go manufactured from, he has a similar style since he came in. Prince got love from Urban radio but only for certain songs. You still here When Doves Cry and Little Red Corvette occasionally.

You ever read Never Drank the Kool Aid by Toure? Had a pretty good article on Prince.

I don't know Jay is pretty smooth, regardless...he presents himself different from every other person in the rap industry.

Andre 3000 is a pretty cool cat. Also, in terms of black actors, Morgan Freeman pretty much tops my list.
