Fast-rising rap star BigXThaPlug reached a pivotal moment in his emerging career with a standout late-night television debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live! The Dallas native didn’t just show up—he left a mark, both musically and culturally, by bringing his signature flair and Southern pride straight to Hollywood.
To commemorate the milestone, BigXThaPlug presented Jimmy Kimmel with a custom-designed chain by The Ice Champ. The striking pendant featured the word “Slab” emblazoned across an outline of Texas—a gleaming tribute to Big X’s Lone Star lineage.
When Kimmel humbly said a gift wasn’t necessary, Big X smiled and quipped, “I come bearing gifts as always, man. We’re twinning. I have one as well.”
Kimmel responded with his trademark humor, “People do tell me we look like twins. I hear that a lot,” before joking that the iced-out chain made him “feel like a princess.” The moment captured the easy rapport between the two, as they posed together for photos, matching chains glinting under the studio lights.
