Black Sheep are a rap group associated with the Native Tongues Posse, most known for the hit "The Choice is Yours", and revered in the hip-hop community for their unique and intelligent rhythms and songs.


Black Sheep was a 1970s rock music band notable as being the first band to include Lou Gramm as part of its ensemble. Gramm was performing as a drummer with the band, which had released the album Encouraging Words in 1975, when he was invited to join the band Foreigner.


Black Sheep is a film comedy (1996) starring David Spade and Chris Farley. The film was directed by Penelope Spheens. This film has been compared unfavorably to a previous film, Tommy Boy.

The film deals with a political contest, in which the candidate, must deal with unwanted and incompetent help from his brother.

The fact that the name of the film is the same as that of a rap group serves to confuse many of the fans of the comedy duo.


The Black Sheep were a Marine Corps aviation unit, VMF-214, that served in the South Pacific during World War II. The squadron was commanded originally by Gregory "Pappy" Boyington.
