Xzibit Off Columbia, Enter Koch, New Album In 2006 - May 23
Xzibit is off Columbia, and will release his next album on Koch Records, late 2006 to keep up with his "1 album every second year" schedule since 1996.
Xzibit is currently working on the new album, but there is no information about producers or album title yet.
Koch is looking to become a powerhouse in hiphop, with artists like Snoop Dogg, Dogg Pound, Alchemist, Rick Ross, Ghostface, DJ Khaled, Scarface, Sheek Louch, M.O.P., D-Block, RZA, Cormega, Diplomats, Wyclef Jean, etc. all having released albums on Koch, or planning to do so.

Yeah, its not like it really matter. Columbia never really had his back anyways.

Yeah, maybe he's keeping the title and the tracks, but they scrapped the August release date, Koch rarely push albums back, so "late 2006" looks likely.

Again, great to hear a new album's on the way.

what happend to the aftermath deal
-
I'm looking forward to hear his new album. WOMD was a tight effort in my opinion. The only time I was disappointed by X was when he dropped Man vs. Machine. I mean, most of the time his lyrics were good, but I don't feel the majority of the beats.
-
^ he should be safe on the beats this time, he's working with DJ Quik on the new album
-

Quik & Xzibit = classick material

Im sure this album will be dope. Great to see another new westcoast album on the way!
-
^^Yeah, we need some new west coast music. A side from DPG shit is slow these days.

I also heard its being executive produced by Keith Shocklee, who is 25% of the legendary Bomb Squad (Public Enemy, Ice Cube).
Xzibit + Bomb Squad = :o :o :o

Hopefully with X on Koch, he won't be pressured to make a commercial album.
-
It's gotta be a little bit degrading to an artist's self-esteem to go from the majors to Koch, but at least it means the quality of their music will probably be better for it.

Have you even been paying attention? New Cube, San Quinn - The Rock, The Team - World Premiere, E40 - Ghetto Report Card, Champ Bailey, Ya Boy - Rookie Of The Year, That last Warren G, DJ Quik - Trauma, Yuk & Game both got new albums on the way, The Federation is about to have their video for 18 Dummy all over mtv and bet, etc. The ball just started rollin for us again. Summer time should see a lot more Cali artists puttin great music out.
