Does there have to be a thread on every Xzibit song on the advance or what?

The reason such comments attract naysayers is because Xzibit fans who have been down from the beginning are horrified with Xzibit lately.......sure, the beats are tight and he still comes nicely for the most part, but why is he doing what he is doing?  Its like COmmon with the Neptunes, or Ras Kass with Timbaland and shit........it's just unnessecary!

And i liked Restless by the way, but it just was missing something if you feel me.......kinda like when Pac came out with AEOM (it was dope as hell commercially but it just wasn't him.......)

Not me.  ::)
True Xzibit-fans doesn't switch on him, just because Snoop say so.
I been down with X since "At the speed" came out, and sure Restless had it flaws, but it was still dope shit.
Remember that "At the speed" & "40 dayz" also had it's flaws, but back then there was really noone who could say that he had fallen off, just because he had just started out.
Sure, he could have hollered at E Swift for some beats, but judging from "X.O." he's better off without.
Sure, he could have hollered at Sir Jinx. (Where the fuck he might be)
The only beat-maker that could have improved his current lineup is Alchemist in my opinion.
If you don't like Xzibit nowadays, you're probably just a backpacker fan.
And what you mean with "Come nicely usually" ??
Show me ONE verse where he lacks it.

The 2 joints I have heard from MVM looks very promising.
He also kills every guest-spot he's on.
Some of yall act like yall ain't satisfied unless Xzibit pops out your speaker and starts C-walking on your table.

Jome, i never said i cared what the fuck Snoop thinks, cuz i don't!  Also, i am not a "backpacker", as i love that gangster type shit as much as i love Common and Del.  However, i just think that some people get caught up in the "Paparrazzi", and start doing it just for the "money and the fame"......this is all fine, as long as they don't ditch their true homies and their fans.  THere is nothing wrong with trying to attract a new audience, just don't sellout your true hardcore fans.  

I still like Xzibit,  he still "kills" every joint he is on, but maybe he could start rapping about something instead of bullshit...........i don't know, i just thought Xzibit and Dre together would've been so much better together, and that Xzibit would've stayed true to his original style instead of morphing into a gangster rapper.  Xzibit is still dope, but it just isn't the same anymore...........
