Xzibit: Snoop Dogg
built 230 days ago
For the past year, Xzibit's been playing regularly to thousands of delirious fans all across the United States as part of the planet-swallowing Up In Smoke rap tour. As part of a bill that ... features Snoop Dogg, Dr Dre, Eminem, giant stage props, fireworks, thunder and lightning, the pitbull-esque LA citizen has helped to light up entire stadiums with his drugs'n'alcohol-fuelled raps.

Xzibit had started his career with the Likwit Crew, but after being "co-signed" by Dr. Dre and associating with his camp in the late 90s, Xzibit began to distance himself from his former crew. Xzibit later claimed that he could have gained fame without Tha Alkaholiks, the flagship group of the Likwit Crew, and criticized the crew's founder King Tee. J-Ro would respond on "Look Out (Tha X Homie)", a simmering criticism of Xzibit which, among other claims, dismisses his gangsta posturing as a supposed Crip, and criticizes his previous attacks on Jermaine Dupri while ignoring Snoop Dogg's criticisms.[9] Xzibit did not respond to J-Ro, and things have calmed down since then. Xzibit has since resumed collaborations with The Alkaholiks, King Tee and Defari.

Xzibit is about as hard as current-day rappers get, and Man Vs. Machine plays out like one mans angry little war against the rest of the world. Xzibit doesnt merely rap: instead, he growls his way through these antagonistic tracks. When he (along with Snoop Dogg ) lets everybody know just who is really in charge here, then warns all posers to hit the road on Losin Your Mind, you get the feeling this fella usually get his way. Machines are not really Xzibits foes; his true enemies are those fools who may just happen to disagree with him.
