xzibit

West coast rapper and Pimp My Ride car customizer Xzibit is back with a new album: Full Circle. He is at Slim’s tonight performing, and before the show he was on KMEL promoting.

Xzibit has been involved in a number of feuds with other artists, most intensely with Jermaine Dupri (dis track) and perhaps most publicly with Usher. At the MTV Europe video awards in 2004 X introduced Usher with a joke that seemed to imply that the very popular with the ladies Usher Raymond might be friendly with the men as well. Usher fired back saying, "I can get more girls than you ever will."

Apparently Usher decided to prove it as well by stealing X’s fiance Eishia Brightwell (photo). X discusses the matter in a typically straightforward fashion on Full Circle. The song, not surprisingly, is titled Scandalous B****es.

If you like the song, and what’s not to like about X’s delivery and reference to Gold Digger, buy Full Circle from Amazon. Too $hort and DJ Quik are among X's many friends who make guest appearances.
