Restless vs Tha Streetz Iz A Mutha
« on: November 06, 2008, 07:52:48 AM »
vs

Both albums came around the same time (1999 & 2000) & are considered by most fans as their best. Lyrics, production & guest features=on point & both CDs are westcoast'd the fuck out 8) I'm going with the X-Man on this. I decided to do this one cause of the similarities between the 2 albums.

Tough choice.  Good comparison between the two.  Almost a coin flip for me but Streets took it.

Yeah...I can see some people preferring Restless, but Streetz overall was just it.

I think Restless had more universal appeal, but for the West, Streetz takes it, easily.

Man that is a tough one. I am actually a huge 40 Dayz fan so I don't know if I consider this album X's best. But it is definitely between those 2. Both have a lot of guests. Tha Streetz is one of the best produced albums with almost no Dre involvement. I give a slight edge to Xzibit lyrically but man Tha Streetz had some bangers on it. Draw for now until I can bump both properly again.

I say Restless only because the production was better in my opinion then Streetz.. Shit but Streetz is a Mutha is the dopest track on both albums.

I liked 40 Days better too, but regardless I'm gonna go with Streetz. To me, Streetz might be the most slept on Rap album ever, and often doesn't get the classic status it deserves.

On another note, I find it interesting Xzibit is on 3 Streetz tracks, but Kurupt doesn't show up once on Restless. I dk where I'm going with that, just thought I'd point it out.

I'm Going With "Restless"... Street Iz Mutha Is Classic, And I Love That Album, But Restless Is Somethin' On What I'd Grow Up... That Album Is Reason Why I Began To Listen Gangsta Rap, WestCoast Rap, And 'Till This Day, Restless Is Somethin' What I'm Bumpin' Whole Day In My CD Player Without No Skipin Tracks! ;)
