Snoop Dogg is an American rapper born in Long Beach, California, in 1971.

(What’s My Name?)” and “Gin and Juice.” The Up in Smoke Tour put Snoop Dogg on North American arena stages in 2000 as part of a lineup led by Dr. Dre and also featuring Eminem and Ice Cube. In 2012, he reunited with Dr. Dre for their Coachella set, remembered for the projected appearance of Tupac Shakur. He later co-headlined the High Road Summer Tour with Wiz Khalifa in 2016. His headline dates have included arena shows at Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam and AO Arena in Manchester.

Xzibit is an American rapper, actor and television host, born in Detroit in 1974 and associated with West Coast hip-hop after settling in Los Angeles. He first drew attention with the albums At the Speed of Life and 40 Dayz & 40 Nightz, including the tracks “Paparazzi” and “What U See Is What U Get.” The album Restless produced another signature track, “X,” while his role as host of MTV’s Pimp My Ride introduced him to a wider television audience. Xzibit performed at Woodstock ’99 before joining Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem and Ice Cube on the Up in Smoke Tour in 2000. He followed that arena run as part of the 2001 Anger Management Tour.
