I didn't see Xzibit on the list. He hosts Pimp My Ride on MTV, and is in the new XXX2 movie with Ice Cube.
Alvin Joiner, 26, sometimes cringes when he thinks of what his mother and father used to do when they found the rap music he tried to hide from them as a kid in Detroit.
Then he remembers what that punishment led to. And he laughs because it's what jump-started his rap career.
"My parents were Jehovah's Witnesses and they didn't particularly care for rap music," says Joiner, , who is known as Xzibit. "I would get my little headphones and sneak and listen to it at night. Every time they would catch me, they would get it and break my tapes. And I'd be mad. Eventually, I got sick of it. So I said, 'You know what? I can rap my own stuff and they can never take that from me.' "
