Luther Roderick Campbell (born December 22, 1960), also known by his stage names Luke or Uncle Luke (originally Luke Skyywalker), is an American rapper, music promoter, record executive, actor, and former leader of the rap group 2 Live Crew. He is a pioneer in Florida hip hop and the creator of the Miami bass genre, known for his sexually crude call and response lyrics. He also starred in a short-lived show on VH1, Luke's Parental Advisory.

A member of the Democratic Party, Campbell was a candidate for Mayor of Miami-Dade County in 2011, and ran for U.S. Congress in Florida's 20th congressional district in the 2026 election, where he was defeated by Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz.
