Ra is East Coast without a doubt. Therefore his album will be East Coast. It don't matter who produces the album. Cube's debut was produced by The Bomb Squad but it's still a West Coast album. Nontheless, I'm dying to here Ra and Xzibit's albums! I want them to hurry up but I also want them to take their time so the end result will be classic timeless shit.

Murrow:
West coast rapper Xzibit is preparing to release his new album, Man Vs Machine in June in time for the summer. Dr. Dre, Battlecat, E-Swift and DJ Premier handle the the production on “Man,” which was originally supposed to drop this month. With “Man,” the follow up to his double platinum CD Restless, Will differ from his pervious work.  

X says the newer CD represents many different things within, not only “typical” hip-hop infatuations. Xzibit told AllHipHop, “So that’s my way of looking at it. It’s a corporate world, corporate machine we got to battle. It’s a social machine we got to battle. It’s all type of sh*t, so I’m attacking it on that type of level.”

The rapper also admitted he wouldn’t stray too far from the current formula, which helped him break the platinum mark for the first time. “It’s still the same formula with Dr. Dre. And learning some stuff from him, and being involved as an artist. As I get older, as I experience life, I try to take my listeners through my process with me,” he said.

Ultimately, he said that he felt that music is as an important form of communication as traditional news and the internet. “And we can continue to see [hip-hop] grow. It’s like communication for everybody. If you don’t watch TV, if you don’t get on the internet, if you walk outside-you are going to hear some music,”
Xzibit said.

Murrow:
In the wake of Loud Records demise, it appears as though Xzibit will now be officially a Columbia Records recording artist. X is currently working on his new album 'Man Vs Machine' which is due to drop in June.

With Loud now gone, there is no confirmed word as to whether or not the new Xzibit album will still drop in the middle of the year or if it will be delayed and pushed back until November. We'll keep you posted on any new developments.
