Free Music Notes for Man Vs Machine
Free Music Review: I don't know what he was thinking
Hit: 3 Stars
I don't know what Mr. X to the Z was thinking with this one. Its got a couple good tracks but its nothing compared to 40 Days and 40 Nights, but its still fairly good because its Xzibit.Free Music Review: Are we talking about the same cd here!!!???
Hit: 5 Stars
How can anyone not enjoy this album, u guys must be Losin Your Mind. This is definately X's bext album. Every song is somethin new to discover. X is such a incredible rapper. The best songs on this album are Symphony In X Major feat. Dr. Dre, Multply feat. Nate Dogg, Heart Of A Man, Choke Me-Spank Me, Losin Your Mind feat. Snoop Dogg is just a sick song, doesnt get much realer than that, & My Name feat. Eminem & Nate Dogg, which is a classic also. This is a great cd from front to back. X keeps it real, and shows strongly here. Overall I give this album 5 bricketts. Free Music Review: X's worst album
Hit: 4 Stars
This is Xzibit's worst album, which doesn't say much becouse X has yet to make a bad album. I been a fan since Paparazzi got dropped, and was amazed by the awesome lyrics so I bought the album, and have kept buying his album since. Me too I like Xzibit better before the Dre-days, back then he probably was number one alive in my book, now he's just great.
This album is mostly about making your head nod, BUT however the goal get's accomplished and it's highly enjoyable.
People are hating on rappers sampling Toto's Africa, BUT I have yet to hear a bad song using that sample, Xzibit, Nas even Ja Rule made great stuff using that beat, this is probably the best one about struggling to go from boy to man.
The tracklist on Amazon says 19 tracks, my copy only has 16 so this is probably a new version/limited version of the album then... ANYWAYS:
I pretty much like all the songs except for "pull my hair" and "multiply" is not too good neither, X brings out the old X in the great hard Enemies finishing off the album in a great way (again on my 16 track version)
If you call this a bad album: I'll call you a lyer...
Free Music Review: Unacceptable...Even By His Standards
Hit: 3 Stars
Is it just me, or has X been going downhill since 2000? I was really hoping that he would do a better job than his "Restless" LP, but I was proven wrong. The problem with this CD is the terrible beats and weak guest appearances.
When I heard "Symphony In X Major" (If you're a Brand Nubian fan, you'll quickly notice the revised title), and "Multiply", I thought that his CD was going to be exceptional. Unfortunately that became misleading, because they're the second and third track, and ironically they were the two lead singles of the CD. After that, it just goes downhill. "Heart Of Man" he tries to regain some momentum he had on previous albums, but it just doesn't come. "Harder" has to be the worst I've heard Ras Kass spit. "Choke Me, Spank Me (Pull My Hair)" has to be an alternate version of "F****n You Right" which appeared on the Restless LP, and you can tell by the title of the song what it means. "BK to LA" which features M.O.P. doesn't sound like a beat that they would do. I'm even dissapointed in Lil Fame and Billy Daze for doing that. I expected a DJ Primier beat or something better. "B**** A** N*****" which comedian Eddie Griffin sucks, because to me its a knock off of "Ed-Ucation" from the Dr. Dre's 2001 Album.
The CD is not all bad though. "My Name" would be considered to somewhat a sequel to "Don't Approach Me" which both featured Eminem. "The Gambler" featuring Anthony Hamilton is somewhat good. "Right On" would be a good track to some people.
There are a couple of points where it's the Xzibit I wanted to hear. The last song "Enemies" reminds me of how he was back on the 40 Dayz...album. The bonus disc would have 3 extra tracks, and one excellent track is the DJ Premier produced "What A Mess". If it was more of tracks like that on the origonal CD, there would be a different reaction, but why is the best song on the bonus disc will remain a question.
As you can see, this is not up to Xzibit's standards. Another thing that dissapointed me was there was not one member of the Likwit Family on this CD. I only recommend this CD if you want to hear somemore of Xzibit's work with Dr. Dre and what not. Otherwise, you should move on to "Weapons Of Mass Destruction" where he pulls himself back together.
Standout tracks: Symphony In X Major, Multiply, My Name, Enemies, What A Mess (Bonus Disc)
