10. Ice Cube

Cube’s voice — along with his lyrics — were draped in raw, unabated attitude. He was once an angst-ridden youth, something which drove his art to be utterly transparent in its quality. Initially a member of famed group NWA, Cube eventually broke away to become a solo artist. 20 years later, he’s one of the most successful musical entrepreneurs in the world.
