Xzibit’s estranged wife Krista Joiner is here with an update! According to her, Xzibit is lying about his finances to avoid coughing out huge monthly spousal support.
According to Vlad;
Xzibit and his estranged wife Krista Joiner have been going through the process of divorce, and now she’s filed new legal documents claiming the artist is lying about his finances.
The legal documents find Krista saying Xzibit’s brother told her he rakes in over $1 million from cannabis companies and stores the cash in multiple locations using bank-sized vaults. She also claims the rapper’s brother said he personally put away $20 million for Xzibit and brings his brother cash on demand.
This comes after Xzibit claimed he isn’t making money from his cannabis businesses and that he is struggling to break even. Krista Joiner accused Xzibit of making it look like he has no money to avoid paying a significant amount for spousal support. In response to Xzibit’s claims, Krista noted she is the one in financial need, saying she has no way to support herself or her son after recently losing her job. She also claimed she has to go through Xzibit’s lawyers to get food and haircuts for their son, along with inhalers for their child. Stay tuned for more updates.

Alvin Nathaniel Joiner (born September 18, 1974), better known by his stage name Xzibit (pronounced “exhibit”), is an American rapper, actor, television presenter, and radio personality.
Xzibit began his musical career after the release of his debut studio album, At the Speed of Life, on October 15, 1996. The album was both critically and commercially successful, peaking at number 74 on the Billboard 200. It also contained the single “Paparazzi”, which peaked at number 83 on the Billboard Hot 100. This success allowed Xzibit to secure a recording contract with Loud Records later that year.
Xzibit released his second album, 40 Dayz & 40 Nightz, on August 25, 1998; it peaked at number 53 on the Billboard 200. The album also contained the single “What U See Is What U Get”, which peaked at #50 on the Billboard Hot 100. The album’s success caught attention from West Coast rapper Dr. Dre who acted as the executive producer on Xzibit’s third album, Restless, which was released on December 12, 2000.
The MTV show Pimp My Ride boosted his popularity as it introduced him to a major audience in 2004. The show starred him as the host, who brings an individual’s wrecked car to West Coast Customs, where it undergoes a rejuvenation. He continued hosting the show until its cancelation in 2007.
Restless debuted at number 14 on the Billboard 200 and was later certified platinum in the U.S. The album contained the singles “Front 2 Back”, “X”, and “Get Your Walk On”. His follow-up album Man vs. Machine (2002) also enjoyed success; it debuted at number 3 on the Billboard 200 and was certified gold. Weapons of Mass Destruction (2004) also became certified gold. After the release of Full Circle in 2006, Xzibit underwent a hiatus, not releasing music until the release of his seventh studio album Napalm on October 9, 2012. Since 2013, he is part of the hip-hop supergroup Serial Killers.
Xzibit has also gained fame as an actor and television host, for his role as Shyne Johnson in the television series Empire, and as the host for the reality television series Pimp My Ride. He has starred in the films Gridiron Gang (2006), The X-Files: I Want to Believe (2008), Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans (2009) and Sun Dogs (2017).
