Xzibit, Promoter Clash Downunder
A 3.5-minute video posted on YouTube shows rapper Xzibit a in a fiery argument with Australian promoter Patrick Whyntie following an April 23 show in Adelaide.
The rapper angrily claimed transport was not booked for his entourage from Adelaide airport to their hotel and to and from the soundcheck at the Unibar.
A voice is heard shouting “unprofessional man.”
An Australian accent yelled, “Don’t slap me in the fucking face!” A metal chair was thrown before venue security stepped in. In a later Twitter posting, since removed, Xzibit claimed Whyntie called the cops, which was denied.
Whyntie, aka rapper Mastacraft, claimed the U.S. entourage was disrespectful to venue staff and Xzibit had been “in a foul mood and, as the promoter, we copped it.”
