Given the game vs. xzibit drama, i was wondering which album you thought was better. I think it's a pretty good comparison, both albums were executive produced by dre, both had a lot of hype before their releases. this is xzibit's best selling album to date, it went double plat i think. So take your pick
I'm gonna have to give the slight edge to restless. Cause that album really did try and put the west back on, it had quik, the liks, king tee, suga free, snoop, defari, and they all came tight, not to mention the battlecat production along with dre and quik
-
Restless no doubt, tha production, guests, lyrics ALL on point. 5/5 imo
Documentary was a solid debut for Game, but he aint got skillz like X, period.
-
Easy win for Restless imo.
Restless is still bangin' every time I play it, no need to skip any tracks.
The Documentary is getting a bit boring, I only bump a few tracks of it every now and then. Ever since I first heard it, The Documentary has had some weaker cuts (fe. Don't Worry). I can't see myself bumping The Documentary, 2 years from now... Let alone 5 years from now or longer.
Restless: 9,75/10
Documentary: 8,75/10

Actually that's because Game always repeats he has a classic album platinum in 2 weeks so he's better than anybody..

Restless easily, still listen to it now, doubt I will be listening to Documentary in years to come.

Honestly, I can see myself listening to documentary in a few years and still thinking it's pretty good, the beats are good enough to allow that, and his lyrics are pretty clever, for the most part
-
This is a good comparison thread, because both these records are products of similar conditions and the sounds are somewhat similar. Although Xzibit was already a proven vet in the game who had earned his stripes with his critically acclaimed "40 Days and 40 Nights" album.
I chose Xzibit's Restless LP. Maybe that's because I was a bigger hip-hop fan at the time Xzibit's album was released. I just like Xzibit more because he represents more of an old-school 90's hip-hop sound and way of thinking, Game is new-school, and hip-hop is dead now anyway. Peace.

why everybody laughing at me!?

Restless no doubt
-
since when are there so many fans of restless. Is it just me or when there used to be xzibit threads everyone hated on this album.
-
poll is closer than i thought it would be
but restless is well better
both good albums but no contest really
-
Restless all day. The documentary is can. Xzibit rely on talent, game rely on controversy. Plus game can say what he want about Xzibit, but he know damn well At The Speed Of Life is the album he wanted the documentary to be. game will be gone next year.
-
game will be gone next year.
You can wake up outta that dream now....... :)

I don't think that many people used to hate on Restless, I think they just thought "40 Days And 40 Nights" and "At The Speed Of Light" were better albums. It's a close call but my fav. Xzibit album is the Restless LP.
-
In my opinion these are both 2 very very good albums but i have to give the nod to restless. its easy to compare these albums because of the production and while both are strong i think restless competes with any cd released in the last few years.
-
all of Xzibit's albums are better than the documentary
-

Since when did this site get this many Xzibit fans i always saw posts saying shit about X now Game says something and a comparison thread is made witt both of their albums fans are comin' out tha woodworks
-
restless..no 50 and x is the better rapper...but i still love dreams to death ..i can bump this sdhit every day
-
I pick The Doc because there is two songs on Restless I completely do not like... "Fuckin U Right" and "Double Time"... I like all the tracks on The Doc. If X took off those two songs I would put him over Game.
-
Restless - 23 (69.7%)
The Documentary - 10 (30.3%)
WCC got this one right.
-
IMO restless was his best and his peak of his career. WOMD wasn't as good as the Doc.
-
Man no question, Restless gets the edge lyrically.
-
restless all day long

restless all day long
yizup

Restless takes it. Still only Xzibit's third best album though.
-
the Documentary.....but both are fuckin sick....Restless is sick shit tho more dre and westcoast feel to it.....but game held his own and westside story, higher, how we do, and start from scratch is some serious DRE heat
-
^ Basically you said it! DRE heat. Not Game heat. :P
-
^ Basically you said it! DRE heat. Not Game heat. :P
yeah you want me to re word it its serious dre heat on Games album which is what we are comparing.....just like on restless we got dre heat all over it
-
i gotta go with the documentary on this one. it's a hot album that i can bump from begnning to end. one of the best debuts in years.
-

I mean Xzibit's lyrics are way better than Game's ones, imo. Dre did a hell of a job on Documentary, making hot beats for sure. And that's the reason why that album is so good. Because of Dre and 50 (the simple fact he's on the videos makes them #1. I hate it but it's the truth!). Restless is a very good album overall, not only because of Dre! In fact it's the 3rd best Xzibit album, imo. And the 2 best ones are without Dre.
Xzibit without Dre = 2 great albums, maybe classic ones.
Game without Dre = ..........................

Well it depends from your definition of "classic" album, but for sure they are two fat albums!! ;)

Game without Dre= a demo put together by JT The Bigga Figga produced by Sean T that was better than his actual album.
