Title: Weapons Of Mass Destruction Was Banging
Post by: SGV on April 18, 2005, 02:38:06 PM: L.A. Hip Hop at it's finest. Hot features, nothing unnecessary, just fam. Steady and Busta Rhymes. Gotta shout Khalil for knockin' out those bangers. X's best album since 40 Dayz... Glad to see he took the creative control, as opposed to Dre. So what he didn't sell as much, he's back to making GOOD MUSIC! Thats the main thing!

"Beware Of Us" NEEDS to be a single. Everyone rips it, the beat is banging and the hook is real clean. Would be a dope way to introduce the Steady Gang, too.

Post by: Lil Jay on April 18, 2005, 02:51:52 PM: I been tellin people man! There so many tight joints on it, "Clack", "Back 2 the Way it Was", "Judgement Day", and "Criminal Set" which is one of the best songs in the last few years
Title: Re: Weapons Of Mass Destruction Was Banging
Post by: SGV on April 18, 2005, 02:56:31 PM: This album finally seperated the TRUE fans from the bandwagoners. The moment Dre left the picture, the hate began. Crappy sales + Quality music = Weapons Of Mass Destruction. Good sales + Crappy music = Restless/Man Vs. Machine.
Title: Re: Weapons Of Mass Destruction Was Banging
Post by: No Compute on April 18, 2005, 03:00:21 PM: Dope album but it wasn't as good as Restless but it did shit all over Man Vs. Machine.
Title: Re: Weapons Of Mass Destruction Was Banging
Post by: Brazemac on April 18, 2005, 03:01:58 PM: I have to agree with my boys
that album was way underrated one of the best album this past few years.
Title: Re: Weapons Of Mass Destruction Was Banging
Post by: LAZY on April 18, 2005, 03:03:17 PM: oh ya this albums tite, im still bumpin it from when it was released... got sum real bangers on there "Saturday Night Live", Cold World", "Criminal Set" & "Back To THe Way It Was".. its def beter than Man V Machine
Title: Re: Weapons Of Mass Destruction Was Banging
Post by: Soul Sanatorium on April 18, 2005, 03:12:32 PM: He could have used more radio play other than Cali. Still don't hear westcoast radio play here in the south other than the obvious (Snoop Dogg & Game). It definitely seperates the bandwagon fans from the real.
Title: Re: Weapons Of Mass Destruction Was Banging
Post by: Shahizzle on April 18, 2005, 03:16:45 PM: Yeah it was a tight ass album, But "Grown Man Business" woulda been fuckin awsome on it aswell.
Title: Re: Weapons Of Mass Destruction Was Banging
Post by: IzUwitIt on April 18, 2005, 03:27:23 PM: its bangin for sure, but not as good as Restless imo, dunno how people call that crappy music.
when it dropped I was surprised at the amount of hate
Title: Re: Weapons Of Mass Destruction Was Banging
Post by: LyRiCaL_G on April 18, 2005, 03:50:17 PM: i agree n disagree

lol@resltess being crappy music......i know u know how to get down homie, restless def isnt crappy music......solid 4 mic cd

quality music + good sales= restless

Post by: notorious^q8I on April 18, 2005, 05:08:14 PM: yall makin a big deal of this dre thing
dre and xzibit decided to separate on good terms cause columbia and sony were using his affliation with dre to promote his album
basically not spending enuff money promoting it
thats why man vs machine only went gold
thats why grown man business (prod by dre) wasnt on the album
i can see xzibit workin with em and dre again once he off columbia/sony watever they r

fuckin right this album is tight....i dunno why ppl said in the forum that they didnt like it or x needed dre and em or snoop cuz this album is proof that he doesnt need them ...this album is better than man vs machine and i believe not better than restless but maybe the same

"Beware Of Us" is my joint right now.
Title: Re: Weapons Of Mass Destruction Was Banging
Post by: eS El Duque on April 18, 2005, 06:57:01 PM: I actually bought the album the day it dropped, with the dvd and what not..my two fav tracks were "Beware Of Us" and "Scent of a Woman"

Im waitin on the Strong Arm Steady cd to drop,should be heat. Btw anyone know when Mitchy Slicks Urban Survival Syndrome comes out?
Title: Re: Weapons Of Mass Destruction Was Banging

Restless is fuckin bangin
Man Vs. Machine was cool

Xzibit always drops good shit imo
Title: Re: Weapons Of Mass Destruction Was Banging
Post by: Minkaveli on April 18, 2005, 09:58:32 PM: Album was hot. I am feelin, Cold World, Saturday Night Live, Criminal Set, Mean Muggin, Ride or Die, Crazy Hoe, Tough Guy, Scent of A Woman, Klack, and Back to the way it was

Title: Re: Weapons Of Mass Destruction Was Banging
Post by: acbaylove on April 19, 2005, 03:01:30 AM: A lot of people started to hate on Xzibit just cause Snoop dissed him.
Title: Re: Weapons Of Mass Destruction Was Banging
Post by: UKnowWhatItIs: welcome to my traps....game over on April 19, 2005, 03:21:30 AM: The album is ok,its got some bangers like LAX,Saturday Night Live & Criminal Set.But as a whole,I dont think the songs sound good together on 1 CD.They kind of dont fit.For me,this CD is the westcoast version of MVM.
Title: Re: Weapons Of Mass Destruction Was Banging
Post by: CRAFTY on April 19, 2005, 03:43:38 AM: Yeah, WOMD is banging indeed...full of tight songs!
"Beware Of Us" must be one of my favorite cuts off the album 8)

YEAH it did some SEPARATing with MORE TO come.
Title: Re: Weapons Of Mass Destruction Was Banging
Post by: Plumma25 on April 20, 2005, 09:07:49 AM: I think its hot also. There's maybe 1-2 tracks i didn't like. But overall, better than his last effort and this album seemed like he got his lyrical fight back in him.
Title: Re: Weapons Of Mass Destruction Was Banging
Post by: Sikotic™ on April 20, 2005, 08:09:47 PM: It had some bangers. It's a weird album for me. The songs I hate, I absolutely can't stand. The songs that I love (Klack, Judgement Day, Scent of a Woman, Criminal Set, Back 2 The Way It Was), I think is some of Xzibit's best work.

It's a great album considering my favorite songs.
Title: Re: Weapons Of Mass Destruction Was Banging
Post by: The King on April 20, 2005, 08:55:28 PM: Criminal Set is one of my fav songs! Its bangin! Real west sound.

How did this separate the "True fans" from the bandwagoners.. ?

The moment Dre left the picture, the hate began.

More people hated on MvM than WoMD... and Dre produced "Grown man business" which was supposed to be on WoMD, so he didn't leave the picture.
The moment Snoop dissed X, the hate began, imo.
Title: Re: Weapons Of Mass Destruction Was Banging
Post by: Juronimo on April 24, 2005, 03:27:35 PM: WOMD is heat. Cold World, Criminal Set, Saturday Night Live are pure bangers. It's nice, a step in the right direction for Xzibit. I honestly think a lot of people stayed away from the album because of "Hey Now", which is the worst song Xzibit has recorded in his career. That choice of single really hurt him IMO.
Title: Re: Weapons Of Mass Destruction Was Banging
Post by: Woozie on April 24, 2005, 03:43:31 PM: well made up 'Criminal Set' got video shot to it, best song from W.O.M.D.
Title: Re: Weapons Of Mass Destruction Was Banging
Post by: icebergslimIII on April 24, 2005, 06:59:18 PM: It is interesting why Dre wasn't part of this cd. X was great with Eminem and Snoop on Bitch Please 2. I saw X's new video on MTV when this album first came out. It was weak as hell. I can see why this album floppped.

The bold is the key. It wasn't on the album, so um... uh... Dre left the picture. The album was Dre free. No Dre in site. Then the hate began.

Ride & Smoke (f. Pastor Troy)

yeah, thats what i seen online. Sometime in June, and distrubuted by 33rd St Records (Same as the Luni Coleone/Damu album Independence Day)
Title: Re: Weapons Of Mass Destruction Was Banging
Post by: topshotta on April 25, 2005, 10:08:33 AM: Hate to say it but, WOMD is Xzibit's worst album together with 40 Dayz.. Sorry guys, too bad X never got signed to the Math or Shady-camp, Xzibit fell off with this album. He got the best exposure possible with the Pimp My Ride-show, plus he hosted the WMA just weeks before the release of the album, still the shit flopped as fuck. No wonder. 2-3 quality songs rest crap. Not even the commercial first single was any fire at all for the mass. Bad choice of producers, or there were too many producers for one album
Title: Re: Weapons Of Mass Destruction Was Banging
Post by: Nutty on July 23, 2005, 10:54:40 AM: lol, what the!@ yer karma.

'Beware Of Us'.....omfg, that shit is hard! Alot of nice trax on that album, didn't get many props as I thought it'd get. Prolly one of the better, if not best album to come outta the left coast this year, or was it last year it came out.

Post by: Twentytwofifty on August 01, 2005, 08:59:53 AM: It's odd this thread jumped back up. I just listened to this album an hour ago.
It was the best westcoast album to come out last year.
Title: Re: Weapons Of Mass Destruction Was Banging
Post by: rafsta on August 01, 2005, 09:32:53 AM: solid album... but it's definetly NOT better than restless or man vs. machine... and dre didnt even do that many cuts on mvm he produced 2 and mixed a few...

mvm came so much harder, and x spat some real shit... the first single mean muggin put me off WOMD... mvm is a way more solid album, less repetitive and less skipable tracks.
Title: Re: Weapons Of Mass Destruction Was Banging
Post by: Thirteen on August 01, 2005, 10:10:51 AM: i give rappers the "1 wack cd" rule... i buy their cd's until i buy a garbage one, then i stop checking for them... MvM was xzibit's garbage cd

"WOMD" had alot of tight tracks like "Ride Or Die", "Criminal Set", "Back 2 The Way It Was", but one of the biggest dissapoinments was that "Grown Man Business" was not included there....
