Shantay, you stay!
I'm going to take that as a correct guess? "Reality TV Show Host" was the only thing from Q4 that hadn't specifically been asked about yet (I think). I had thought about it a number of Qs ago but had not circled back to it and forgot about it, the last hint reminded me of it and a quick google of African-American reality tv show hosts and here we are. I honestly was having a difficult time coming up with someone who had acting and music/recording stuff but wasn't best known for either (and who wasn't on the wikipedia list!).
That is a correct guess, yes :)

This felt like a weird game.
Kinda, yeah. I'll start 105 sometime soon.

Final hint: actor is the third thing mentioned on this person's Wikipedia page, and the two things that are listed ahead of that are what, taken together, make him well-known. What he is primarily known for, as described by the second sentence of his Wikipedia page, has already been mentioned in the thread. (Musician is not one of the first two things.)

Five more guesses.

 These are some African-American actors over 60 years old with 15 or more films under their belt (including at least 1 voice) that are not on the wikipedia list:

- Andre Braugher
- Jim Brown
- George Clinton
- Bill Duke
- Charles S. Dutton
- Ving Rhames
- Ruben Santiago-Hudson
- Sinbad (David Adkins)
None of these are described as a musician on their wikipedia page though.

Another hint: this person is also a musician (according to Wikipedia, while I would be more inclined to say recording artist), but that is not what he is primarily known for.

I will give a final, more significant hint after the last question is asked.
