X-Raided is a rapper from Sacramento, California. In 1992, he was sentenced to 31 years in prison on murder charges, which he denied, maintaining his innocence. The lyrics of his debut album, Psycho Active, was submitted as evidence by the prosecutors. Subsequently, X continued to record rap songs in prison, until being released on parole 26 years into his sentence. He was later signed with Strange Music.

X-Raided was paroled on September 14, 2018 after serving 26 years in prison, due to a letter of support from Lyle and Erik Menéndez, whom he had befriended in prison, who wrote that X-Raided "has developed into a kind and patient person, rooted in integrity, and passionate about his ideas." X-Raided expressed remorse for his past criminal activity, and expressed the intention leading a new life as a changed man, as well as marking a change in his career and lyrical style.
