I like it too... I mentioned it as one of my personal favorites / classics after 2000. Not a single weak cut, everything's straight west coast. 4.75/5 if you ask me!

CLASSIC in my ears.

Dre, Quik, Suga Free, Soopafly, Battlecat, Kokane, Alkaholiks, Defari, King T, Butch, Nate... how much west can you get?

4.5/5 - It's the best West Coast album of the millenium (2000-present).

I liked every single track except "Fuckin' You Right" and even that wasn't that bad I just choose to skip it.

Because Dre executive produced it and some people will hate on anything that Dre does.  Doesn't matter what some people think really.  The fact that it's the best-selling X album should give you some indication of its quality.

it's an ok album.... far from X's best tho (At The Speed Of Life)... i didn't feel tracks like DNA & Kenny Parker Show++ production is on point trough the whole album, but xzibit doesn't rhyme and flow like he did on his two first albums.

For real though. Year 2000 was pure fuckin heat. If he had put that track on there and left of the Kenny Parker show and Double Time, X would have had a classic album on his hands. Great album, amazing production but 40 Days and 40 Nights is a better album.

Hate it, X took a huge step down. His first 2 albums are among the greatest Hip-Hop ever released and Restless is full of lackluster lyrics, and weaker production. Just because bigger name producers were involved doesn't mean they make beats that fit him as well as the ones on his first 2.

It's a decent album. Pretty dope. It doesn't touch his first two though.

xzibit doesn't rhyme and flow like he did on his two first albums.

If you leave out his last album which I haven't heard yet, his rhyme structure and flow are much better than they were on the 2 first albums, it's just that his subject matter sucks ass. Xzibit should never have gotten the success he got.
