Title: Xzibit next single and 50 cent album
Post by: Myrealname on October 15, 2002, 06:35:00 AM
Look for the "Gambler" or "simphony in X major" to be the next single from Man vs Machine.
While "Simphony in X major" is everyone's logical choice,apparently the only thing preventing it from happening is sony and interscope's continued beefing over 50 cent signing. Also,the official title of 50's Shady records debut is "Get Rich Young or Die Trying"

I think "Gambler" is the next single. In the video for "Multiply" Xzibit ends up in Las Vegas then it says "to be continued" and what better place to shoot a video called "Gambler" than in Las Vegas?

Me, being the CORNY DORK that i am, don't see how The Gambler or Symphony in X will help this album.......both are solid tracks, but hardly are the type of songs that will help Xzibit.

My Name would be the only logical choice. Why? Eminem ---> Guaranteed record sales. Although the idea of Gambler bein' the single 'cause of the previous video's ending sounds logical.

"My Name" should be the next single no questions...

Eminem + Nate Dogg on the same track = A For Sure Hit!


Than for the 3rd single, he should use "Choke Me, Spank Me"...That shit is just soooo catchy...I can just imagine little High School Girls running around going 'choke me spank me pull my haiiiir!"...and than the guys going 'I dont want to love you...I just want to fuck you!'...


so "My Name" and "Choke Me, Spank Me" would definently help sales no doubt...PeACe

my name should not be a single.
just becuase a track has eminem in it.. doesn't mean it should be the next single..

choke me, spank me (pull my hair) should DEFINATELY not be a single..

neither of those two songs are single material.. your average music listener doesn't want to hear about the jd/eminem feud.. nor do they want to hear about x just wanting to fuck sluts.. those songs are best left on the album.. and the more "commercial" kind of tracks should be released as singles..

you all know what i'm talking about.. tracks that don't glorify violence, sex or disrespecting women.. they're the ones that rip up the charts.

it's all about CONTENT...

i'm not saying the above aren't good songs.. they just aren't good singles..

heart of man would be a good choice in my opinion.. it's a song that i could see fitting in on the charts.. and it's got instant recognition from the Toto - Africa sample..

Gambler also fits in, and seems logical given the multiply video, as WestCoastVeteran said.

guess we'll just have to wait and see..

Peace.

I don't know what's wrong with me.  I'm as big an Xzibit fan as most of ya'll but I think "Gambler" is straight up boring.  Maybe I need to go listen to it some more.  I thought it was weak.  

Yo...straight up.....Xzibit is making a BIG mistake if he does not release "Symphony" as the next single!!!!!!!!!!!  That song will make him go platinum!!!  And what the fuck does 50 Cent have to do with the single not being selected?

Yo...and for a third single..."Choke Me, Spank Me, Pull My Hair".......... just clean it up for the kids and you got an MTV and BET hit.

I'm a ghost.....peace

^^ Word.  I agree with everything you said except Eminem doesn't want to overexpose himself by appearing in other artists video's.  He would decline to do the video with Xzibit.

I agree with what you said about Choke Me Spank Me.  I think it should be the third single after Symphony.

U know what I would have as the next single:

What A Mess

I mean there really is no substitute to a quality hiphop tune, and I know you are all gonna say that it ain't commercial enough, but that never stopped Nas releasing Nas Is Like off of I Am did it, or indeed the other artists who have released 300 DJ Premier produced singles in the last five years. The song is probably the deepest on the album, and I really think that this would be a great choice as next single.

PS - I know it's only on the bonus disc, but you all know it should have been on the actual cd, so I still think that it is single material.

Have u been living under a rock? Sexualy Explicit tracks are the biggest hits..Even Christina Aguilera is trying that shit out with her new single...and do u remember that track "My neck, my back"?...

"Choke Me, Spank Me" is catchy AND commercial as fuck...It will help sales a WHOLE let...Mark my words...PeAce

Word.  NowIKnow is right.  That's what sucks about mainstreem music today.  Back in the day when hip-hop was in it's primehey used to promote songs depicting the West Coasts gang culture.  And to balance that out they also played songs that had posotivity or a socially conscious message.  Remember YOMTVRaps! around 95?  There play list would be something like...DPG, Fugee's, DeLaSoul, Westside Connection, AZ, Masta Ace, Ghetto Boyz, Outkast, 2pac, Dre, Snoop, Crucial Conflict, Bone, MC Eight..... That was the SHIT!!!Back in the muthafuckin old school!!!

Now all they do is play video's that push the envelope sexually.  That gets old.  I mean, it ain't like I'm ever gonna fuck any of these hoes.  It's just putting something in my face I can never have.
