Who found Xzibits album Restless a bit of a dissapointment.
Its not as good as At the speeed of life or 40 Dayz and 40 Nightz. There were some really dope songs on restless, but his lyrics weren't as good as his last albums.
I mean look at the singles 'What u see is what you get'' is way better than 'X' or 'Front 2 Back'. I would rather bump 40 Dayz and 40 Nightz over Restless anyday. I got a good feeling that his new album is gonna be extremely dope tho. For a while now Xzibit has been king of the west.
What do you guys think?

P.S. I'm not calling Restless wack. It is a very dope album, but i think his other albums are better.

restless was really westcoast influence beatwise...the other two seemed more hip-hop, if you know what i'm saying...i'm not saying westcoast isn't hip-hop, it's just has it's own sound expecially when dre is all over it...i love all three cd's for what they are though...he's one of the only rappers to stay real consistant after 3 cd's so i'm expecting a nice forth, peace.

I don't really like 40 dayz and 40 nights or At the speed of light, but I love Restless. I really started to like his music and flow on Restless. Man vs. Machine is gonna be dope as hell.

I like all his albums. Restless and his debut are my favorites. The production was the best on Restless though. XXL magazine said his new album is going to be another West Coast masterpiece because they've heard it.

Restless gets much criticism because Xzibit was cripped out for this album. Apart from that this album was bangin and is definitely the best album of his beatwise. Lyrically though his first two are classic and the beats are eastcoastlike cause he was more underground back then.

Restless 9/10
40 Dayz 40 Nightz 10/10 classic!!!!!
At the Speed of Life 10/10 classic!!!!
