A RAP feud has erupted after Pimp My Ride star Xzibit slapped and dissed a promoter in Adelaide.

Promoter Patrick Whyntie told Confidential: “I walked into a s--- storm. Xzibit was erratic, he was in a foul mood and, as the promoter, we copped it.”

Whyntie, who also performs as a rapper Mastacraft, claimed the row started after Xzibit and his management team were disrespectful to venue staff.

Whyntie claims he was trying to calm security on both sides when Xzibit hit him.

“It was like a slap on the side of the face, and he had three security guards in front of him as he did it,” Whyntie said. “It didn’t hurt. I was laughing, like: ‘Are you serious?’”

Whyntie said Xzibit was paid a five-figure fee before his show in Adelaide on Wednesday night.

But when Xzibit hit the stage, he dissed Whyntie, imploring the crowd to chant: "F--- you, Patrick!”

Video footage of Xzibit’s diss and his altercation with Whyntie have been posted on YouTube.

Whyntie responded on his Facebook page: “We put in a lot of time and work ... to bring these artists to Adelaide and what happened was disgraceful.”

Whyntie’s head of security, with the Facebook name “Rynoe Oeserus,” was not so forgiving.

Rynoe was offering $1000 to anyone who could snatch Xzibit’s expensive neck chain.

He added: “No-one f---s with Adelaide boys.”

Xzibit, who also stars on the hit show Pimp My Ride, has worked with rap superstars Dr Dre, Snoop Dogg and Eminem.

A promoter handling Xzibit’s national tour said the rapper had no comment on the Adelaide incident.
