Xzibit

Xzibit lands at Electric Brixton in London on 16 June 2026 with a set that reconnects his West Coast roots and opens a new chapter. Since his 1996 debut, the Detroit-born, LA-raised rapper has carved out a catalogue built on gravelly delivery and tight storytelling, boosted by his work with Dr. Dre on Restless and Man vs. Machine. Raised within the Likwit Crew orbit, he’s also stepped beyond rap with TV and film roles, from Pimp My Ride to Empire and Gridiron Gang, but it’s on stage that his narratives hit hardest.

He returns with Kingmaker, his first album in twelve years, out 16 May on Greenback Records. Featuring Ice Cube and Busta Rhymes, the project leans into a more mature writing style, distilling lessons from a long run into focused tracks. Recent singles Play This At My Funeral and Leave Me Alone sketch the mood: reflective, rhythmic, and straight to the point. Live, expect him to bridge eras, folding new material into the pulse of his early-2000s catalogue while keeping the West Coast backbone front and center.
