Xzibit Interview with NFL Pro Player Insiders: Talks Napalm Album, NFL Teams and the Throwback NFL Jersey’s Xzibit Owns

Xzibit sat down with ProPlayerInsiders.com where Xzibit talks about the new album Napalm, his favorite NFL team and the Throwback NFL Jersey's he has:

Pro Player Insiders: On the title track, “Napalm,” you allude to US troops and filmed some of the music video clips in Iraq. What inspired you to use your song to reflect on the American troops?

XZIBIT: I was raised with some of those values. I always say my dad loved me the only way he knew how and that was through the marine corps. There were a lot of positive things that came from that too but I wouldn’t say it inspired the album; it was just more or less respect for the principle and respect for the values.

PPI: Now let’s talk football. What team are you rooting for this year?

XZIBIT: My favorite team is the Raiders (chuckles).

PPI: Whose jerseys do you rep?

XZIBIT: I got a Montana, Namath, Jerry Rice, Barry Sanders, and Walter Payton. I got tons of jerseys but I was rocking them back in the day.

Xzibit Set To Launch A Premium Tequila Brand ‘Bonita Tequila’: Five Times Distilled, Crystal Bottle, Wrapped in Satin

If you have been keeping it locked to Xzibit's Twitter you will have seen a number of hints that Xzibit has been working on a new tequila brand. BallerStatus.com brings the following:

Xzibit Bonita Tequila Created By Chris Brown (not the singer)

Xzibit is currently on a tour run through Canada, supporting his recently released, seventh studio album, Napalm. But, music isn't all the west coast rap vet is up to.

X is also launching premium brand of tequila called Bonita, set to drop early next year. It is distilled five times, followed by a proprietary 3x cold-filtration method, after which it's hand-bottled in pure crystal and then wrapped in satin, adding to its high-end appeal.

The Bonita Spirits Company, the entity behind the tequila, was actually founded in 2010 by Southern Illinois University grad Chris Brown, not to be mistaken with the famous singer. He would eventually send Xzibit the first sample… and he was hooked.

"When he received the first sample of Bonita, Xzibit was immediately blown away by what we had created. The tequila was amazing, the packaging was beautiful and dynamic, and the brand was perfect," the brand's website says. "He knew, at that moment, that he had to make Bonita his own."

X and Brown have since become partners, and plan to launch Bonita in early 2013. For more info, visit BonitaSpirits.com.
