got this from Fortress ent.

-------------
XCLUSIVE XZIBIT INTERVIEW

Its 9am on June 27 and we are all kickin it in the Los Angeles editing
studio of Fortress Entertainment, the production company that produced
Xzibit Restless X-Posed, where Xzibit and director Devin DeHaven have
spent the last 5 months fine tuning their DVD/Home Video.

The long hours of shooting and editing are over, the release date is
set, and now the promotion begins.  Xzibit sits in front of the DVD
player, clicking the remote over and over, playing with the functions
of the DVD.  He clicks from a menu image from the Anger Management
tour of X standing on stage to one of Eminem backstage.  Clicking on
the image plays the Don t Approach Me underground music video from the
DVD.   "This is so dope!"  Xzibit says, like a kid with a new toy.

He is as Restless as ever, bouncing between weekend radio concerts,
studio sessions for the Golden State project, recording tracks for him
upcoming LP, overseeing the Defari LP, and promoting his new DVD/Home
Video Restless Xposed, it looks like there is no rest in the near
future.

This is the first time that Xzibit has spoken in detail about his
DVD/Home Video, its his project, its his life, and he is very proud of
the end result of the almost year of work put into it.

Q - What Makes Restless Xposed so interesting?

Xzibit-  What makes Restless Xposed so interesting and so much fun to watch
is that its not choreographed, not scripted.  Its definitely real
life, straight up in your face, behind the scenes, what people want to
see and never get to see.  It s a year of our lives put down,
documented, its just real fun to watch.  Real people doing real
things, your favorite artists, being who they are behind the mic.

Q- You took the time to make this project perfect, with interactive
menus and your own commentary narrative.  How else is Restless Xposed
different from other artist DVD s?

Xzibit- What separates Restless Xposed from other music DVD s and Artist
DVD s is that this in not something my record label put together, this
is something I took time out along with Devin and created from the
ground up.  Its stuff you really don t get to see, unless you re us.
The DVD is definitely not just videos or the best part of somebody s
career.  It has us at our best and worst.  It s real fun to watch.
Not only does it have mostly behind the scenes, it also has all of my
videos from Paparazzi to What U See is What U Get to Foundation onto
the new stuff with X and Front 2 Back.  Its really put together nice.

Q-This DVD offers a lot more personal access than any other DVD out
there.  What will Xzibit fans get from watching this?

Xzibit- As far as the scenes go, there s a lot of scenes from the Anger
Management Tour, from Europe.  There s some unlikely stars, like the
gopher, its definitely a highlight of the film (laughs).  Myself, me
partying down, that s also definitely a highlight of the film (laughs
louder).  And man its got all kinds of stuff that you definitely,
definitely, definitely want to check out.

Q- Who are some of the guests in the DVD?

Xzibit- You gonna see my family, the Golden State project, Ras Kass,
Saafir, Defari.  Your gonna see Eminem, Snoop Dogg, Dr.  Dre, Dogg
Pound, Soopafly, Warren G, Master P.  You name it Big Boy, Method Man,
it goes on and on.  The Alkaholiks (now Tha Liks) everybody is on
there, a lot of people.

Q- Any last thoughts?

Xzibit- Check it out y all, you heard it here first, Mr. X to the Z Xzibit
expanding out, giving you all a first look behind the scenes with us,
right here, on Restless Xposed.

With that his attention goes back to playing with his DVD, and then
giving the Xzibit laugh that s hard not to recognize.  Something to do
with a dead moose outside Canada?  Xzibit s DVD and VHS Restless
Xposed hits stores on September 11, 2001.
