Rapper and host Xzibit says he's owed money from the popular MTV series, Pimp My Ride.

X, who hosted the popular series from 2004 to 2007, made his claim on social media on June 28, saying he "carried the show on his back."

"While I’m at it, hey @viacom_intl why is it you’ve made millions off the show #PimpMyRide I carried on my back and found ways to cut me out? Like saying I would get percentages of all merch sold let alone streaming(which wasn’t even in the contract) and putting in the fine print “with my name and likeness” then proceed to take my “name and likeness” off of ALL the merchandise including dvd sales after season 1? "

The rapper goes on to say that his music was cut out of the show so that he wouldn't earn publishing, before suggesting he's ready to take legal action.

"To top that you guys went back and EDITED all of my music out of ALL entire seasons in order to avoid paying me for my publishing. Let’s talk about worldwide syndication!!!! Wow. Hey, guys, my number is still the same. Hit me up. Or…… Can anybody hit me with a law firm who isn’t afraid of Viacom to get me right?" Robert M. Bakish President of Paramount Global ... #IveBeenQuietLongEnough #InNeedOfAnswers.”

Viacom hasn't yet responded.
