Xzibit's greatest songs on one album...
« on: April 21, 2014, 10:57:09 PM »
Here's my list... in order...

1.  "Papparazi" - X's magnum opus
2.  "At the Speed of Light" -  Great coming of age track
3.  "Foundation"  - father and son gem
4.  "Best of Things"  - Dre produced banger, meaningful lyrics
5.  "Focus" -  STRAIGHT BANGER, intense, X at his best
6.  "Meaning of Life"  -  Xzibit comes full circle in his life/career on this track
7.  "Thank You" - X connects with the fans on this one, touching tribute
8.  "Symphony in X Major" -  Got this on my ringtone
9.  "Year 2,000" - this was when X was really starting to heat up, Mel-Man assisted
10.  "My Name" - Em and Nate assisted banger
11.  "U Know" - feat. and prod. by Dre so you know it's a banger
12.  "Get Your Walk On" - this song deserved to blow up and be a West Coast anthem
13.  "Los Angeles Times" - intense, Xzibit coming hard, Mel-Man assisted
14.  "What You See Is What U Get"  -  great video, was #1 on BET nearly all summer in 98

Release Date is one of the dopest starts of the album 8) 8)

It wasn't THAT good of a track.  And it was a little hypocritical for X to always be C-Walking to it when he's not even banging yet at the end of the video they have a "This is not a dance" message displayed.

I think a couple club/party songs still deserve to be on there (Alcoholic, Choke Me Spank Me, Multiply).

No doubt about that, and I love the way it flowed right into "Symphony in X Major"...

...on the other hand the intro of Restless was one of the worst starts to an otherwise great album

b please missin.  ;) ok, that's a Snoop track, but it's important in X career.

If I put that joint on there then you would have to put "What's The Difference" and "L.A. Niggaz" on there as well.... but those technically weren't his songs.

you're right about the track being hypocritical, but i think it's an absolute banger and displays Xzibit's skills when he was in his prime over a Mel Man / Battlecat collabo.

As a solo song, i would have chosen X over this. Sorry i'm Away So Much and Alkaholiks too.

true.. I remember the O.G. "What's The Difference" had Hittman on it instead of Xzibit.  I got that joint off the dreday website several months before the album release

"Bitch Please" was a Snoop Dogg song featuring Xzibit and Nate Dogg. I'm not sure what you're tryin' to say.

I would have to nominate 'Chamber Music' and 'Inside Job' from the 40 Dayz album.

No. Dr. Dre called Xzibit and asked him to be on the record. Here's Xzibit talkin' about the song.

So what? Quik was in there as well doing the b-walk, so he is a hypocrite too? Its entertainment man, get over it.
