T.I. and Major Harris

Tip has a gang of kids, so it’s only right that one of his offspring take center stage on T.I. & Tiny: The Family Hustle.

Kris Jenner and Kim Kardashian

The proof is splattered all over the Internet and tabloids for the world to see. Kris has been making a mint pimping out her daughters for a good while now.

Will and Jaden Smith

How bad was After Earth? Will Smith told Esquire it was basically the failure of his career. That sounds like a bit of an overstatement coming from the man who voluntarily took a role in The Legend Of Bagger Vance.

Rev. Run and Diggy Simmons

As part of Run’s transformation to Rev. Run, his kindler, gentler, godlier path involved incorporating his family into the mix. That meant struggle bars from Jo Jo and Diggy.

Billy Ray and Miley Cyrus

If you’re looking for the source of those daddy issues Miley references in “Wrecking Ball,” look no further than Hannah Montana.

Ice Cube and O’Shea Jackson Jr.

The hype around Straight Outta Compton is real. And if the critics are to be believed, the only way O’Shea Jackson Jr. could’ve been more of a dead ringer for Ice Cube was if he wore a real Jheri curl.

Damon Wayans and Damon Wayans Jr.

There might not be another family in comedy as deep as the Wayans. And while Damon Wayans Jr. won’t give you that gut busting comedy from the days of Homey Da Clown, he proved he can hold his own with his pops on The Underground.

Master P and Romeo Miller

We’re genuinely glad Percy and Romeo are getting that father and son money. As far as their acting skills…let’s just not even discuss it, man.

Mario Van Peebles with Melvin Van Peebles

Melvin and Mario Van Peebles

Respect the legacy. From the legendary Sweetback character to Posse, Melvin and Mario Van Peebles have respectively given us some cinematic moments. We’ll just quietly pretend We The Party never happened.

Peter Gunz and Cory Gunz

Somewhat corny title aside, Son Of A Gun gave viewers a look at just how similar and yet completely different Corey Gunz is from his father Peter.

Jada Pinkett Smith and Willow Smith

There’s a direct line from Willow whipping her hair to her mother rocking out at Afro Punk with her band Wicked Wisdom.

Snoop Dogg and Cori B

Let it be known that Snoop’s baby girl is a unifier. Snoop and Boss Lady credit her for keeping them together despite Snoop’s pimping, and she even got Drake on the God awful song “No Guns Allowed.”
