Coolio, whose real name is Artis Leon Ivey Jr., found fame as a rapper in the late 80s, but got national recognition after his hit song “Gangsta’s Paradise” was featured on the soundtrack for the film, “Dangerous Minds” in 1995. Coolio had other well-known hit songs such as “Fantastic Voyage,” “It’s All the Way Live (Now), “C U When U Get There,” “Gangsta Walk,” among others. He shares four children with ex-wife Josefa Salinas, as well as six other children from previous relationships, and also has five grandchildren.
