Xzibit has also gained fame as an actor and television presenter, having hosted the reality television program Pimp My Ride during the 2000s.

He has also starred in the films Hoodwinked (2005), Gridiron Gang (2006), The X-Files: I Want to Believe (2008), Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans (2009), and Sun Dogs (2017).

1992–1999: Early career and At the Speed of Life

Xzibit started to rap at 14, then under the pseudonym "Exhibit A". He lived in Detroit, Michigan, until elementary school age. Following the death of his mother, his father remarried and the family moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico. He attended Elementary and Middle School on Albuquerque's West Side, but by high school found himself getting into so much trouble that he was self-reportedly kicked out of nearly every school in the Albuquerque Public School System. His father, frustrated by his behavior, drove him to the office of the Marine Corps recruiter, where Xzibit swore that he would get his GED. While he successfully completed the program at TVI (now CNM), he continued to get into trouble. In an effort to break the cycle of violence and crime he found himself in, he moved to Los Angeles in his late teens. His first appearance on a professional record was in February 1995 on The Alkaholiks' Coast II Coast, song "Hit and Run". He also appeared on King Tee's IV Life "Free Style Ghetto" shortly after. After touring with Likwit Crew, Xzibit signed to Loud Records and released his debut album At the Speed of Life×At the Speed of Life15 October 1996 · Studio albumSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 15 tracks1Grand Opening (interlude)1:322At the Speed of Life3:453Just Maintain3:214Eyes May Shine3:575Positively Negative3:366Don’t Hate Me (interlude)1:327Paparazzi3:568The Foundation3:569Mrs. Crabtree (interlude)1:1710Bird’s Eye View4:4211Hit & Run, Part II3:4912Carry the Weight4:1313Plastic Surgery4:4014Enemies & Friends4:0115Last Words (interlude)1:00 in October 1996, which peaked at number 74 on the Billboard 200 and reached 38 on the Canadian Albums Chart.

It was more successful in mainland Europe, particularly in Germany, where it peaked at number 11 on the German Singles Chart.
After spending the next two years building his reputation as a West Coast underground artist and touring with the Likwit Crew, he released his second album, 40 Dayz & 40 Nightz×40 Dayz & 40 Nightz17 August 1998 · Studio albumSpotifyYouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 18 tracks1Intro (The Last Night)1:042Chamber Music4:2233 Card Molly3:554What U See Is What U Get5:095Handle Your Business4:146Nobody Sound Like Me3:377Pu**y Pop3:218Chronic Keeping 101 (interlude)1:599Shroomz3:0110Focus3:2911Jason (48 Months interlude)1:2712Deeper2:5713Los Angeles Times4:2314Inside Job3:0915Let It Rain5:3416Recycled Assassins4:1317Outro1:1718Don’t Let the Money Make You5:22 on August 25, 1998, which charted in the U.S. at number 58 and at number 50 in Canada.

With his growing following in the West, he caught the eye of rapper and producer Dr. Dre, who secured him high-profile guest spots, such as joining Snoop Dogg on the Dre-produced hit "Bitch Please" of his album No Limit Top Dogg, and appearing on Dr. Dre's 6× platinum album 2001, on the songs "Lolo", "Some L.A. Niggaz", and "What's the Difference" with Eminem. He closed the year 1999 with his acting debut, starring in The Breaks.

1999–2003: Rise to prominence and Restless

Xzibit also received a guest spot on Limp Bizkit's 8× platinum album Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water on the song "Getcha Groove On".

It spawned three singles, the most successful being "X", which peaked at number 76 in the U.S., 14 in the UK and 4 in Germany. The album reached number 12 in the US. Dr. Dre invited Xzibit to perform on his American Up in Smoke Tour in mid-2000, which featured Snoop Dogg, Eminem, and Ice Cube, among many others. The same year, he also starred in the direct-to-video crime film Tha Eastsidaz by the group of the same name and was a playable character in the video game Madden NFL 2001. He continued to star in films involving fellow rap artists such as The Wash, co-starring Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg, in 2001 and The Slim Shady Show and 8 Mile, co-starring Eminem, in 2001 and 2002, respectively. He released two concert films in 2001, Xzibit: Restless Xposed, centered around the recording of his third studio album and various live-performances and was also seen in Tha Alkaholiks: X.O. The Movie Experience by the rap group of the same name. He also released a compilation album of songs that featured him, entitled You Better Believe It. Xzibit contributed vocals to Fat Joe's 2001 album, Jealous Ones Still Envy, appearing on the song "The Wild Life".
In 2002, he guest-starred in the comedy series Cedric the Entertainer Presents as Mack Daddy in the eponymous episode and released his fourth studio album Man vs. Machine with mostly similar guest appearances like its predecessor, which spawned three singles, which all failed to chart in the Hot 100, although "Multiply×Multiply2002 · SingleSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 4 tracks1Multiply (explicit version)4:102Multiply (instrumental)4:083Multiply (explicit a cappella)2:594Multiply (clean video version)3:47" reached number 39 in the UK and 33 in Germany. The album itself was certified Gold by the RIAA, although Xzibit was unhappy with the crafting and promotion of his newest product, ending the cooperation with Dr. Dre. The album is his highest-charting album to date, reaching number 3 in the U.S. and 8 in Canada. Following the rekase of the album, in 2003, Xzibit's contract with Loud was absorbed by Columbia and he was signed directly to them. He also starred in The Country Bears. He continued to collaborate with his West Coast colleagues, Ras Kass and Saafir, forming The Golden State Project (originally Golden State Warriors) rap collective, and Tha Alkaholiks, along with Snoop Dogg and Eminem, whom he accompanied on his All Access Europe tour in 2003.

2003–2006: Pimp My Ride and transition into acting

Xzibit received a boost in popularity between 2004 and 2007 when he was introduced to a major audience as the host of the MTV show Pimp My Ride, in which he brings an individual's wrecked car to West Coast Customs, where it undergoes a rejuvenation.

Musically, he started the year off with the release of his second compilation album Appetite for Destruction×Appetite for Destruction2004 · Studio album · Mixtape/StreetSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 18 tracks1Will Blast Intro1:402Grown Man Business3:593Ride & Smoke3:284Gangsta Shit3:075Hood Life3:556Yo Hood Ain’t No Harder2:297Hey Now (Mean Muggin)4:248Steady Menace3:459What Is It3:1810Black Rabbit3:4011Get Fucked Up4:2812Muthafucka2:531343212:4514I Can’t Believe4:4715Matrixx3:4616You Can’t Stop Me3:0217Some of Them3:1518Take Them Out2:55 featuring 50 Cent on one track, consisting mostly of tracks from his Dre period and songs that didn't make the cut for his fifth studio album Weapons of Mass Destruction×Weapons of Mass Destruction8 December 2004 · Studio albumSpotifyYouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 19 tracks · 2 discsDisc 11State of the Union1:302LAX3:453Cold World3:514Saturday Night Live4:205Muthafucka2:556Beware of Us4:107Judgement Day3:238Criminal Set3:179Hey Now (Mean Muggin)4:2110Ride or Die4:0111Crazy Ho4:2512Big Barking0:5413Tough Guy4:2514Scent of a Woman4:2015Klack5:1516Back 2 the Way It Was3:5817What U Can’t C3:44Disc 21Exclusive Interviews2Behind the Scenes Footage of the Making of the Album, which was released in December 2004, entering the charts at 43 in the U.S. For this album, he reunited with Columbia Records, after having parted ways with producer and mentor Dr. Dre. The album notably did not feature any contributions from Dr. Dre or Snoop Dogg. Additionally, before the album's release, he switched management from Paul Roseberg and Goliath to John Boyle. The album managed to go gold, but yet again Xzibit was unhappy with the promotion and backing of his label, claiming that they were trying to promote him like Jessica Simpson, leaving the label in anger and going independent. His single "Hey Now (Mean Muggin)" featuring Keri Hilson marked his last chart success on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number 93, while the second single "Muthafucka" failed to chart. Aside from his music and Pimp My Ride, he starred in the movie Full Clip, alongside Busta Rhymes, guest-starred in CSI: Miami in the episode The Rap Sheet, released a concert documentary with his new group, eponymously titled Strong Arm Steady and hosted the 2004 MTV Europe Music Awards in Rome. In 2005, he collaborated with shock rock legend Alice Cooper on a track entitled "Stand" from the album Dirty Diamonds. This represented Cooper's first-ever foray into rap music. This year marks his most busy one, also being featured in three video games, The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay, where he lent his voice and likeness to the warden Abbott and Def Jam: Fight for NY and NFL Street 2, where he was a playable character.
The following year, he mainly focused on acting, getting roles in the Hollywood blockbusters Derailed opposite Clive Owen and Jennifer Aniston in which he played as Dexter, XXX: State of the Union as Zeke that also starred fellow L.A. rapper Ice Cube and Hoodwinked, where he voiced Chief Ted Grizzly opposite Anne Hathaway, Glenn Close, and Patrick Warburton. In 2006, he starred in the drama Gridiron Gang as Malcolm Moore and made two guest-appearances in the animated sitcom The Boondocks. The year also saw the release of his sixth studio album Full Circle×Full Circle17 October 2006 · Studio albumSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 14 tracks1Invade My Space5:182Rollin’4:123Ram Part Division4:044Say It to My Face4:095The Donnell Rawlings Show (skit)1:416Scandalous Bitch3:047Concentrate3:498On Bail4:389Family Values3:5410Black and Brown5:4811The Whole World4:2112Poppin’ Off4:1413Movin’ in Your Chucks4:5514Thank You5:00 released independently on Koch Records. The album charted at position 50 but was a commercial flop, selling merely 120,000 copies in the U.S.. None of the three singles were able to chart, although "Concentrate×Concentrate2006 · SingleSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 2 tracks1Concentrate (dirty version)3:522Concentrate (instrumental)3:50" climbed at number 68 in Germany. The album featured Kurupt, T-Pain and The Game, whom he assisted on his album Doctor's Advocate, where he rapped on the track "California Vacation". He also worked on two video games that year, Def Jam Fight for NY: The Takeover and Pimp My Ride. The year 2007 saw him hosting the final season of Pimp My Ride only, although he competed in the Gumball 3000 2007 rally.

2006–2012: Full Circle and hiatus

After the cancelation of Pimp My Ride in 2007, 2008 was the first year where Xzibit did not release an album in his former two-year cycle. Though starring in two movies The X-Files: I Want to Believe as Mosley Drummy and American Violet as Darrell Hughes, this year marked a significant financial downstep for him, earning merely $70,000, opposed by almost $500,000 one year prior. He was also featured on The Alkaholiks Tha Alkaholiks: Live from Rehab concert film that year. In 2009, he played the mob leader Big Fate in the acclaimed The Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans and reprised his role as Abbott in the enhanced remake of 2004's The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay, The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena, while Sony released his first greatest hits album, entitled The Greatest Hits. Even though his financial troubles were increased even further, as he had to file for bankruptcy in July 2009 and January 2010, although both attempts were dismissed and his houses and belongings liened.
In 2010, he had a guest-spot in the crime series Detroit 1-8-7, in the episode Royal Bubbles / Needle Drop. He also had the role of the Jabberwock in Malice n Wonderland, a short film based on the novel Alice in Wonderland, included on the re-release of the eponymous Snoop Dogg album, entitled More Malice. After having guest-starred three times in the previous season, he was added to the permanent cast of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, where he is a part of the design team. After a four-year hiatus, he planned to release his seventh studio album MMX in 2010, but due to label issues the album was not released by the end of year. In March 2011, he teamed up with Extreme Music, to release a new compilation of material titled Urban Ammo 2×Urban Ammo 225 March 2011 · Studio albumSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 31 tracks1What It Is2:202End of the World2:573Runway Walk3:094Go Big2:255Whenever You Call My Name4:086All Out War4:107Missing You3:318Make It Happen3:269I’m Money2:4110Man on the Moon2:5511Keep Comin’ Back3:2212Back Again3:4613Give It Up3:2614Can’t Always Rain3:5215I Told ’Em3:5616Somebody 2 Love3:2717Find a Way Out3:3318Take Care of You3:1919Holding On3:2420It’s a Celebration3:4121We Cakin’ Up3:5022Fight 4 Mine3:1823Young Mister3:2724All the Wrong Things4:0325Mastermindz2:3326Meat tha Beat2:0627Bourbon Ammo3:4528Bentley Music2:1329Cannibal Corpse3:2930Braggin’ Rites3:5631Stupid Fruity Swagger2:38. Xzibit produced, composed and performed all 40 tracks on the compilation album, created primarily for professional music users and music supervisors in need of material for their movie/television productions. Xzibit enlisted veteran director Matt Alonzo to shoot the videos for the two singles, which are titled "Man on the Moon" and "What It Is", both featuring Young De. In April 2011 he teamed up with Fredwreck and Adil Omar for a song on The Mushroom Cloud Effect. He also appeared in the TV movie Weekends at Bellevue as a nurse in late 2011, an unsuccessful pilot that was not picked up in the end.

Personal life

Xzibit and his ex-wife Krista had two children together, Xavier (who was born prematurely on May 15, 2008, and died eleven days later) and Gatlyn, before she filed for divorce in February 2021. The song "The Foundation×The Foundation1996 · SingleSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 3 tracksAThe Foundation (album version)3:55B1Eyes May Shine (remix)4:53B2Eyes May Shine (remix instrumental)4:42" from At the Speed of Life is dedicated to his son from a previous relationship, Tremayne (born June 8, 1995), who is also a rapper under the name Tre Capital.
According to public records, as of late 2010 Xzibit owed more than $900,000 in delinquent federal taxes. He tried to file for bankruptcy twice, in July 2009 and January 2010, but his bankruptcy filings were dismissed. The problems started after Pimp My Ride was canceled: in 2007 he earned $497,175; after the cancelation his 2008 income was reported as $67,510.
His cat, Thunder Cat, has its own Instagram account.

Gumball 3000

At the Gumball 3000 rally in 2007, Xzibit drove a black Jaguar XJ220. During the first day of the rally, Dutch police seized his driver's license for doing 160 km/h in a 100 km/h zone. After the penalty, his co-driver, producer Fredwreck Nassar took over the wheel and they were allowed to continue. In an interview with Dutch radio personality Reinout "Q-Bah" van Gendt, Xzibit said that he mistook the kilometers for miles (100 mph = 160 km/h). Ultimately, he never got his license back from the Dutch police and had to apply for a new one in the United States. Xzibit competed again in both the 2013 and 2014 Gumball 3000.
