Xzibit named his new album "Restless 2".
« on: July 23, 2011, 12:41:29 PM »
After I saw this I started to think. Does it earn it's name? I mean, everybody here got to agree that "Restless" was straight West Coast classic, but after that he really fell of. So now he took more time to make another one (Restless 2), better production, guest appearances and shit like that. What do ya'll think, will it be another classic or it's just waist of time? From what I've heard, he's been working with Dre, Battlecat, Fredwreck, Jelly Roll (-.-') DJ Khalil and 21TheProducer. After that "Phenom" single I tought he's hungry, and to be honest after I heard "HFOU" with Trick Trick I was like whoa, that's some "40 Dayz, 40 Nightz" shit. I really can't wait to see what he's cookin'.
I believe Dr.Dre should own Compton, Dr.Dre said X Man you're onto somethig...

Source?? Lately rappers have been making sequels to their classic albums from back in the day. To me Restless was a personal favorite, a west coast classic. I hope in some ways it actually does sound like Restless but more updated. I have faith in X, the past couple of years dude has been dropping bombs.

Xzibit needs to stop playing and get back with strong arm steady, they all need each other...

I'm sure there'll be someone to disagree but to me it's the Dr Dre / Xzibit connection that made "Restless" the West Coast classic that it is. So if there's ever going to be a Vol.2, then it has to be with Dr Dre overseeing the whole thing, like executive producer and/ or mixing the entire album (like he did with "Tha Last Meal" making it special as well). Obviously, the other producers & features have to fit too! With them 2 elements combined & a hungry X... everything's possible!

MMX (2010) was the tent. title of the new album. Of course that wont work now, so I decided the body of work has earned the title:#RESTLESS2

My favorite West Coast artist. 8)

It's about time we get an album from him. Not a fan of the title though. Brings too much hype to it that I don't think X can live up to in 2011.

for those who were around at the time, "Restless" was actually considered a disappointment when it first dropped...i personally thought it was the shit, but i remember most peeps around here were expecting another "2001" and thought "Restless" was too watered down. I bet those same peeps appreciate the shit out of it by now.

Too watered down? Stop smoking crack, 2001 is wayyy more watered down than any X album.

Well if this really is going to be a follow up to Restless then the production better be up to par. Fredwreck can certainly deliver for a fact and Jelly Roll is either a hit or a miss in my opinion. Battlecat hasnt had a good beat since Dog Pound Cali Iz Activ. But I wouldnt be surprised if he ends up getting a beat or two from Dre.
