Open Bar Entertainment is a record label founded in late 1999 by West Coast rapper Xzibit.
Xzibit Said when he started it: "I started a label called Open Bar Entertainment, being that I gotta take advantage of everything that's happening around me right now, I just feel like Likwit Crew never got our fair share in the market place. Whether it was us, whether it was the promotion, whether it was the label...that's not for me to argue about. But what I can do is, since I got my hands around the opportunity, I'll of course, embrace my family members and bring them to the table with me. The first person I signed was King Tee. I also signed Defari and I'm bringing the Golden State Warriors over there. So I'm gonna go ahead and we're going to develop them, and bring them into the circle, putting my family together, coming out correctly."[citation needed]

[edit] Present
The label isn't showing much activity, the releases are mostly by Xzibit himself and in collaboration with other labels. Xzibit's releases seems to be hugely created by other labels and it seems like the label is more a symbol to show that Xzibit is one of the big names of westcoast hiphop.
Defari and the other signed artist left the label and the label only contains the founder Xzibit right now, who's also signed to Koch
