Haven't heard of this yet or seen a thread.
Tash breaks down the Xzibit/Tha Liks situation on "X-Homie" that will appear on mixtapes in the near future.
From hiphopsite.com
-
uh, just to refresh my memory, what exactly happend between them and X? was it that he turned all main stream and left his homies for success? please tell me any details to what really happend.
-
Supposedly Xzibit was talking down on the Liks in front of Snoop cause they weren't that big...They should just squash the beef cause Xzibit and the Liks make some dope music together...
-
LOL! Tash gone kill hiz azz (on wax)!

LoL, it could be interesting yeah, but I think Xzibit will smash Tash & J-Ro if they go at him.
Wasn't it J.Ro who was supposed to make "The X-homie", or maybe this is just a stupid rumour..
The way I see it:
Xzibit vs. J.Ro = Xzibit easy
Xzibit vs. Tash = Pretty close, but Tash is more of a party rhymer. Edge Xzibit.
Xzibit vs. Tash & J.Ro = Can't tell..
If they both go at X, maybe X will bring re-inforcements.. (Ras Kass & Saafir)
I hope this isn't true though, the West needs unity, not more conflicts.
It may bring some publicity back West, but it isn't this kinda publicity the West need.
-
the way i see it is whoever comes with true stories will win it..........no body really knows why X dont be with tash n so on like he use to really, ppl say its fame that got to his head..........i dunno, maybe its effected his latest music, but a battle is a battle..........tash i believe could kill xzibit IF his actually talkin sum real shit or xzibit aint really got to worry much.......................but like whats wierd is seein all these diss each other, wat happened to the west and unity?
man another thing is that if they diss X dya think he will respond..............u neva know, maybe he'll just stay quiet....................sad to see, maybe xzibit made a mistake in leavin tash n co behind while he was blowing up, i dunno.................we will never know the full story of these things no matta how much u think u know...........but i hope they sort it out n make music together again
peace
-
Tha Liks are just jealous that X blew up and they didnt...Thats what this shit is all about.
-
X forgot his "real homies".......they sounded tight together......but seems like X is in planet hollywood! i cant wait to hear this if its true! Tash will destroy X..........Tash is like one of the biggest underrated ones out there......his flow is tight!
-
Yeah.. I think I remember it was J-Ro comin out with "X-Homie"... I dont know though... I'm a lil bias in favor of tha Liks... I feel Xzibit did kind of sell them out after he got real close to Eminem and Dre. But whatever... It's kinda late for Tha Liks to be tryna diss him now cuz it's been a while now... and in the past... like in interviews n shit, they let it be known that they weren't really cool with Xzibit nomore, but they didnt seem to show alot of hostility towards him.. they were just kinda like "oh well, money changes people.. time to move on"..
Lyrically though... I can't really say... they all have tha same different styles but at tha same time it aint that much different. It's like they came up toghether and developed their styles around eachother... they all have about tha same ability to come up with punchlines.. I'd probably give it to Tash though. Then Xzibit... then J-Ro..
-
yeah i think tash will get x but x will destroy j-ro
-
Xzibit will destroy J-Ro, but I reckon Tash would take Xzibit in a battle.
But this isn't what we need, the whole Likwit Crew shouldn't be fighting one another, they should be fighting for proper hiphop against all these commercial artists. Tha Liks are obviously annoyed that Xzibit has sold out, and that he is deserting the people who got him into the rap game in the first place. I might be wrong, but I actually think that this is Tha Liks way of trying to make Xzibit realise what he is doing. Don't get me wrong Xzibit is one of (if not my) favourite rapper out there at the moment, but he has let success go to his head and is actually getting worse with each album. Once he realises this, I think he will go back to Tha Liks and give us another classic album in the vain of At The Speed Of Life, at least that's what i'm hoping for.
-
I agree with LikWit Connection,
I don't want the liks to be beefing with Xzibit. Together the entire likwit crew make amazing music. Any beef that happens on wax could stop that from ever happening again.
Oh and alot of u are under-rating J-ro like a motherfucker. I suggest some of you actually go out and buy a liks album and listen to J-ro coz he is sick on the mic and near equal to Tash imo. The thing then sets them apart is that Tash has the best flow out of them 2 and as far as im concerned probably one of the best flows in hip hop.
I'd say J-ro probably smashes damn near every artist on Aftermath/Doggystyle records apart from Em and Rakim.
Don't under estimate J Macinro.
Also if J or Tash battled X i honestly don't have a fucking clue who would win.
-
lol @jome
defendin xzibit...hahaha
tha liks will destroy him...
that muthafucka x turned away from tha liks
when he made his dre produced X single...
better sales wit dre..
so fuck my old crew..
who cares bout tha liks?
only da real xzibit/liks fans from back n da days
know what im talkin bout..
this combo was da shit !!!
now fuck X !
GT
-
yeah theres more to it than this.
remember what soopafly was saying.. how he used to kick it with X and how X used him to get to snoop... X used Snoop to get to Dre.... etc etc
They all been making X out to be a phoney friend who used people to network to higher people.
also.. i dont think anyone mentioned Snoop's beef and even though that deal didn't go down right Snoop + Liks must be tight... (plus daz always been tight.. shame about kurupts bitching out fucking up tha vapors project)
lemme see...
snoop + xzibit = beef - ish
soopafly + xzibit = beef - ish
liks + x = beef
daz + liks = tight before this happened with kurupt + ex
daz + soopafly + snoop = tight again + doggystyle affiliated
doggystyle (minus daz) + liks rumour = every one with beef been around each other...hmm
X was just a member of the crew he isnt a member of "tha alkaholiks" the group... people be talking like he is.
btw.. whoever thinks X can come thru this gotta be insane. if all the people above line up he got no hope.
-
j-ro is the better emcee of the liks...tash aint fuckin with j mackin ro...i think the ro could test xzibit to the limits lyrically...but with punchlines tash will take xzibit down...unless ras and saafir help out...xzibit is gonna lose this one
-
Honestly, I've never thought X was all that. Seer you forgot King T, I believe in a few interviews a while back, he was talking about making a Likwit Comp without X, and they asked why and he was alluding to them not being tight.
-
Another thing, I'll bet Em and Dre won't have X's back on this one. They ain't gonna diss Snoop, no matter what.

Yeah, of course you're hating on X since he started working with Dre, that's all it takes for you to switch.
And yeah, I was a real X/Liks-fan back in the days, and still am, so what??
And I wouldn't say "defending", I just can't see how J.Ro have a chance AT ALL vs. Xzibit.
Tash vs. Xzibit = Pretty equal, but I never seen Tash smash anybody.
After all I'ma big Liks-fan as well as X-fan, so don't act like I'm totally biased.
And ey caTash: J.Ro is LL Cool J light nowadays!!

didnt know you like xzibits first 2 albums more than his 2 latest ones

LOL!

I alwayz liked J Ro better out of tha three. But in a battle... I think X and Tash would come sicker, and quicker with tha flow. Sometimes, especially on recent shit, J Ro's been a lil off... I think it's cuz them fools are tryna freestyle more...but like I said on my post above... all them fools be comin' up with some crazy punchlines...
Overseer... X wasn't part of tha group Tha Alkaholiks but he was part of tha Likwit Crew... it seemed like they were all tight... Tha Liks, X, Defari, and King Tee... and now you got newer fools like Phil and Chocolate Thai... X probably wasn't part of tha groups but he left tha fam.
But tha only reason I dont fully side with Tha Liks on this one is because they wanna blow up just like Xzibit did. They just weren't able too... I mean, for those of you who know what's up... tell me they weren't trying real hard to blow up on X.O Experience? Some of their fans considered them sell outs... I know they gotta eat too but you gotta see it for what it is. And even though they had that video... people didnt really catch on... shame.
-
Here's a lil sample... a battle between J Ro and Tash from Tash's Rap Life cd. I guess you can call it a battle...
J-Ro:
"I Get Drunk And I Stumble To Tha Mic/ Stay Drunk All Week I'm At My Peak Like Rice(??)/I'm Never At My Peak I'm Killin 5th After 5th/ I Drink More 40's Than Tash And E-Swift (oh hell naw!)/Uh Huh, I Drink More Than Both Of Yall/ I Hold My Liquor Then I Bang On Crenshaw/ And Tash You Can Drink Dude/ You Know That You Tha Nigga/ Who Be All On Yo' Ass After Just A Swig Or Two/"
Tash:
"Nigga You Trippin!/ Must Be That Zima You Was Sippin/ You Accountant Couldn't Count How Many Bottles I Be Grippin/ And Flip'em In Tha Trash Cuz I Down'em With Ease/ While You On Your Knees/ About To Pass Somebody Yo' Keys/ I Even Had To Pay Tha Taxi/ Tha Last Time You Asked Me/ You Start Up On Yo' Feet But Always Wind Up Ond Your Back G/ Ro, You Should Know/ You Cant Drink With Rico/ While You Drink Your Shit Slow/ I'm On My 9th Cuervooo/"
E-Swift
"Ey Yo, At Every Single Show/ You Be Layin On Tha Flo'/ Swearin Up And Down, You're Never Gonna Drink No Mo'/ But I Get Tore Up/ From Tha Floor Up/ And Never Throw Up/ A Lil Wine Cooler And You Wanna Beat Your Ho Up/ I Never Call It Quits I Dont Know My Own Limits/ This Alki Shit Is Fo' Real It Aint A Gimmick/ You Might Fuck Around And Catch A Liver Disease/ Fuckin With These Likwit Emcees/ Hip Hop Drunkees/"
Not really a battle... but I thought it was tight.

They all been making X out to be a phoney friend who used people to network to higher people.
The way I see the rapgame is a big tree full of monkeys. Xzibit is a treacherous monkey who started out on the ground but got a hand to the lowermost branches by the Likwits.Via them he could get higher into the tree to the level of Soopafly and most of the DPG.being a friend of Soopafly he could grab the attention of Snoop who was higher up in the tree and then he could get to Dre on the highest branches of the tree.Good networking of him but he wasn't loyal to those on the lower branches and left them to become Dre's righthand together with monkey Eminem.You can see it on Man vs Machine...he doesn't fuck wit likwit,soopafly,tray deee,goldie loc,kokane and them like he did on Restless
-
LOL!
when i caught the liks in concert j.ro busted some frees and tash busted some...j.ros were much more crisper and on point...tash was more hesistant and simple...so go head and laugh
-
didnt know you like xzibits first 2 albums more than his 2 latest ones
Now you do - even if Restless was close..
