When Keeping It 'Gangster' Goes Wrong For A 'Jeopardy' Contestant

Always keep it "gangsta." Always.

In what can only be described as a tragic (albeit, hilarious) turn of circumstances, a Jeopardy contestant's answer was rescinded after judge's determined that his answer about a classic Coolio hit was, in fact, incorrect. For reference, here's the track:

  • And here's the moment where it all went down:

  • Daaaaamn, Daniel. We mean, shoutout to the Jeopardy team and the homie Alex Trebek for preserving the artistic integrity of one of Coolio's greatest hits, but our heart definitely goes out to the contestant, Leon. He was a few Gs closer to having Sallie Mae off his back. And, honestly, we'd say his Black card is probably well-intact since he guessed this fairly obscure reference.

    For more game show hilarity around Black culture, definitely tune in to Black Card Revoked, premiering Thursday, January 18 at 10P/9C!
