Always respected for his lyrical talent, Xzibit ranks highly amongst the West Coast's underground. For his third album, THE RESTLESS LP, he teams up with super-producer Dr. Dre, and overcomes the obstacles that robbed him of superstardom his first two times out.
His rhymes remain as tight and focused as ever, and songs such as "Been a Long Time" and "X:" prove that he can hang with the best. The album's production is the best match for Xzibit yet. He represents for the Left side more here, collaborating with artists like Nate Dogg, and producers such as Battlecat, and shows that he's got a little gangsta in him.

Professional Reviews

Rolling Stone (1/18/01, p.56) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...An album with immediate appeal....Xzibit overdoses on beats and rhymes, then comes back for seconds..."

Spin (2/01, pp.107-8) - 6 out of 10 - "...From the stark bass-thump to the low-riding pacing...the tracks complement his tales of 'hood trivia..."

Muzik (3/01, p.62) - 4 out of 5 - "...A more polished and varied package than previous efforts and more evidence that 2001 will be the year that Xzibit's throaty growl goes global..."

NME (Magazine) (1/06/01, p.32) - 8 out of 10 - "...He's the Charles Bukowski of rap....[His] raps are delivered with pathos and cartoon gangsta panache....a fine example of...good-time West Coast gangsta funk..."
