In the hip-hop industry it's rare for one to speak about their religion and involvement in their church. Xavier "Zaytoven" Dotson - the producer responsible making some of our favorite Southern tracks - is the exception. In this short exclusive, the German-bred, Atlanta-raised hitmaker talks about how he gives back.

For as long as he can remember, Zaytoven has always paid tithes to his holy place of worship. "I'm a church kid so I've been doing that ever since I started making money," he recalls. The church even payed for him to play the organ and drums on Sundays at one point, and the super-producer would take 10% of that and put it back into the church.

Zaytoven hopes other hip-hop entertainers will follow in his footsteps and speak out on their religion. Watch the clip for more.
