I remember being 10 years old challenging my friend Kevin to a beat battle. For as long as I can remember I’ve always wanted to do one thing and that's- make music. At a very young age, I fell in love with music, how complex and diverse and even how challenging it is. Music can be a work of beauty, or it can be aggressive and angry. The fact that a few notes and progressions can provoke some to fear, or even built up such strong emotions that it could make someone cry, still blows my mind. And after my first time witnessing a song come alive from nothing, I was hooked. I knew very early that this is the thing I would spend the rest of my life doing. But if only it was that simple.

I was born and raised in the Washington DC Area which isn’t actually the music capital of the world. Don’t get me wrong some of the most talented and creative artists I’ve met have been here. But generally speaking, there are no major label headquarters here or a large distribution companies or place where the who’s who or music “gatekeepers" hang, like maybe you would find somewhere like a New York, Atlanta, LA, etc. Not to mention the fact that as much as people love listening to music and the fact that music is everywhere from inside our cars to commercials about our cars, to even walking in your local grocery store. Despite music being such a music big part of our day to day lives, no one thinks you should do it as a career. “Have a plan B”, music isn't for everybody. People love to tell you what the odds are. (you see where this is going)

Fast forward a little, it's 2014 I’m married with one child walking to the mailbox pealing off eviction notices on my apartment's mailbox, scraping together money for food working at jobs I hate making little to no money. It’s at points like these that a man begins to think about his life and decisions. By this time, I had been producing for over 16 years ouch! For those 16yrs I had been thinking if I was good enough then things would just work out for me, I just had to make sure my music was good. 

The turning point came for me when, at the verge of just giving up, feeling like I was selfish for even wanting to be a producer, why couldn't I want to be a doctor, lawyer, something that would make more money, something with more stability. one day something clicked that had not before. This whole time I had been hating and complaining about this and that person and how could they be there and I’m here.  But maybe it wasn't about just being the “best”, but being the smartest, maybe it just wasn’t who I knew but also and maybe more importantly what I knew. From that point on I went hen on a journey of discovering, learning and discovering not only how do I make the best music, but how do I make the best brand and build an audience around that. How do I “Beat the Odds “. So now not only do I try pushing the limits and boundaries with how I approach music but also with how I approach everything. I know there are a lot of Artists and Producers who may feel like I felt so another huge part of what I am passionate about and love to do is, use and share all that I have learned because I know it’s possible to Beat the Odds.

Xavier “X-Ellentz” White is a Hip-hop Artist, musician, youth counselor, and mentor from Sacramento, California. “One of the HOTTEST artist period! No debating.” “I’m ready for his album today!” “I can’t believe he is just starting! He sounds like he’s been doing this for a while.” These are just a few things people are saying when it comes to this hot new artist.

X-Ellentz discovered his genuine love for music when he first picked up the Trumpet about 14 years ago. “It blew my mind that I could actually create the same music I had always heard on the radio! I’ve been loving music ever since. Never thought I’d be a rapper though.”  Realizing his call to empower the world with what he has been given, X-Ellentz is ready to take the industry by storm. From his anthem, “Ima Win” featuring Exoduz, to one of his fan favorites, M.T.M. (More Than Music) featuring Black Knight, X-Ellentz is giving his fans exactly what they want to hear. Not just hot beats with no substance, but every song can actually teach you something. Something that you can walk away with an apply to your life. “I’m more concerned with making a difference than an album sell, but I definitely want both.”

Just this year, X-Ellentz was approached by JG and Black Knight regarding Rock Paper Scissors Music Group b.k.a #RPSMG based in California. “I love my team!”, he says. The highly anticipated album from X-Ellentz, titled "Only In Him", released early Spring 2014'. “I’m really excited about introducing myself to the world!”, the artist says. Although X-Ellentz is making his debut to the world, he has already managed to feature on some great nationally released projects: CJ Emulous’ “Modern Warfare” - Still (2012), Black Knight’s “The Break In” - Don't Care (2012) "The Young Future" - Oh My Gawd (2013), and Jesus Geek’s “The Story” - Flame On & House Party (2013).

Above all, X-Ellentz really enjoys spending time with his beautiful wife, Michelle, and his daughter. “Words can't describe how proud I am of my husband. He's truly passionate about pursuing his love for music. One thing I can say about his music is that he has substance. Music now a days ain't saying nothing! But this man's music speaks to the heart, brings revelation/insight, points to Christ & empowers the listeners. I love to support him!”, Michelle said. Be on the look out for X-Ellentz everywhere!
