Lil Jon

The self-proclaimed King of Crunk, Atlanta rap icon Lil Jon has built up a formidable empire since he first hit the scene in 1997. Best known for his hyperactive, chant-along style, he's scored a long string of crossover hits, including "Bia Bia," "Get Low," and "Damn!" And he's not just a rapper -- Jon's production skills are in serious demand from all kinds of artists, among them Usher, who enlisted him to lace the beat for his single "Yeah." In addition to cranking out platinum hits, Lil Jon has also helped to develop new talent, including Lil Scrappy and Trillville.
