"Curtissss" - Just a few days before his born day in 2007, Killa got into an epic phone argument with 50 Cent. Fif had called Koch Records a "graveyard," which got Cam a bit riled up. The two began a heated exchange on the phone, comparing sales numbers of their artists. The lasting legacy from that day, though, was Cam's incessant yelling of "Curtissss." Soon, using the star rapper's government was fully in play: Cam released a diss, "Curtis," and 50 called his next album Curtis. (photo: John Ricard / BET).

MVP of the Year: Jay Z - No new rules here, but Jay Z made it hard for us to judge him among his peers. The music mogul bucked tradition in the way he released his No. 1 album, Magna Carta Holy Grail, and he put the pressure on others to catch up or top that.  (Photo: Paul Zimmerman/Getty Images)
