The Black Effect Presents... Gangster Chronicles!

In this exclusive episode of The Gangster Chronicles, MC Eiht and Steele sit down with West Coast heavyweight Xzibit for a raw and insightful conversation that traces his journey through hip hop history.

X breaks down how he first got put on by King T and Tha Alkaholiks, how the legendary Wake Up Show sharpened his pen game, and what it meant to land a deal with Loud Records at a pivotal time in rap. He details the major turning point in his career—Snoop Dogg tapping him for “B Please”—which set the stage for the historic Up in Smoke Tour alongside legends like Dr. Dre, Eminem, and Ice Cube. We also get into a convo about the Nation's immigration issues.

But Xzibit isn’t just surviving off the past—he’s thriving. We get into his booming business venture Xzibit's West Coast Cannabis, one of the most respected brands in the retail weed game.
