Xzibit - The new G.O.A.T. ??
« on: July 28, 2002, 02:03:34 PM »
I knew some people choked on their coffee/tea when they read the headline, but picture this:

* Give Xzibit a few years, and a few albums.

I think he will be considered among the greatest that ever did it when he one day retires.
Pac and Biggie was dope and all that, but Pac was very unconsistant if you ask me, and it's not strange neither when he made 10 songs a day.
Biggie is also a legend, but he never really got to show off his full potential.

He's one of the best out now and by the time his career is over he WILL be considered one of the greatest ever.

In all honesty i think think he could be the GOAT in a few years but in order to do that he has to go back to his roots (i.e. The LIKWIT CREW) and away from the snoop/dre camp..

Xzibit goes AMAZING with these grimey and rugged beats that Thayord and e-swift laced him with. But the beats dre, battlecat etc gave him don't suit Xzibits style at all IMO..

He's dropped 2 near classics and one so so album (Restless), im SO hyped for Man V Machine but i just hope it doesn't have dre's sound stamped all over it...

But with ras on the new album, it could be another near classic release...

:)

Word. I'd rather Xzibit go back to his old camp than with Dre and snoop. He was making better musicback then. Hopefully the liks are on his new album.

yea, Im seein X in the top5 right now...Out of all the rappers out right now, I could see Xzibit be labelled the next "G.O.A.T.

Hopefully he worked hard on the new album, only time will tell.

Yeah - I think he will be considered one of the greatest one day but it still takes a lot to get to that point!!!

But surely his new album can help him on his way to the very top...

I think he has a great chance of becoming the G.O.A.T, I hope he does as well, he always comes of tite on every track he is in.

Xzibit is dope as the come, but will have a lot of work to do to be considered G.O.A.T

2 Pac is G.O.A.T not in my eyes, but he just is, the guy had it all, there was something about him,

Xzibit needs to course some sort of controversy much like Pac did, I think the Biggie beef opened alot of peoples eyes as to who 2 Pac was,

Now if X did that, Im sure his name would be alot popular, not in a Nelly kinda way but a Pac way,

Much like how Eminem has caused controversy he has made a name for himself due to that...................

DOES THAT MAKE N E SENSE

IMO artists tend  to have a certain sound that they are perfect with. Such as

Bone Thugs - DJ Uneek (together they drop classics, but when bone go else where its a nice change and some good does happen but its not the same)

Snoop - Dre (no need to explain but them 2 are AMAZING together)

Wu - Rza

same goes with Xzibit, he sounds MUCH better with the Likwit camp and other ppl like Thayord, Sir Jinx producing his shit (and guests) etc. Coz they have a dark kinda style which isn't really west coast style but X is amazing with these styles. X and Dre is ok but nothing special...

I'd rather have an X album produced by those who did his 1st 2 and have guests like the liks/king t/defari/ras etc than a Xzibit album produced by dre and snoop and co on it coz it just ain't the same...

Not hating on dre but i prefer Xzibit WAY more without dre (and collabs with those in the dre/snoop camp)
