At The Speed Of Life - Classic/Near Classic
40 Dayz & 40 Nightz - Classic/Near classic

he also killed all his guest his guest appearences....bitch please 1 and 2,what's the difference etc

outshines both ras kass and saafir on 3 card molly too,i love that verse

Never heard any of his albums
but word to his verse on "what's the difference?"

He came on hard on "soma l.a niggaz" too
as well as "concrete" by Shabaam Sahdeeq
and the remix of "right here".

Not sure about classic, but i did enjoy most of 40days.

3 Card Molly was dope.

mos def appreciated even more so since hes taken his nose dive...but to me neither of those albums are even near classic...both very good solid pieces of work tho

'old' tash urinates all over xzhibit imo

as you said tho his guest spots are fire

don't believe i've heard them,they could do with an uploading if possible

and you should check out 40 dayz and 40 nightz some time...

Both at the speed of life and 40 days 40 nights were dope. I personally like at the speed of life better.

if it wasn't for the west these rap niggaz wouldn't need a vest for they chest...

yea he was raw.

i even thought he was raw all the way up to Restless LP.

in between Bitch Please and Restless LP...he was really killin shit i thought he was gon be a RAP superstar.

bitch please, bitch please 2, what's the difference, some LA niggaz ("niggas in the hood refuse to go hollywood" HAHAHA), y2k, and a few other joints.

i couldnt agree more. although i havent heard 'at the speed of life'. i also agree that old tash is severely underrated. tash is is one of the dopest rapper with the smallest vocabularies.

"I get the crowd moving like Big Pun stage diving"

Tash is ill as fuck, his solo is mad slept-on...

his solo was terrible...but not because of him...but i agree alkaholiks tash is/was one of the all-time underrated mc's...when on he was as good as anyone

at the speed of life > 40 dayz & 40 nightz

paparazzi ...

"Plastic Surgery" is my shit..

He killed that "Three Emcees" joint with Casual and Del too..

"at the speed of life" uploaded in mp3x

at the speed of life is better album, but 40 dayz & 40 nightz has 3 card molly...

i thought rass kass and saafir were better on Three Card Molly




(will they ever stop....prolly not)

I saw dude with the Alkaholiks right after Paprazzi droppped...

he was hungry as fuck, sounded dope.

as soon as he wasn't hungry shit got all whatevs.


SPeed of the Life was rocked about a week ago. I don't think I skipped a single track.

He's appreciated and Restless wasn't that bad.

heres one of my favourites from speed of life. awesome album.

The Foundation (video clip)

i picked up at the speed of life when it dropped, mostly because of tha alkaholiks affiliation and enhanced cd gizmo. i've never really felt that album. i also picked up westside connection that same day, and ended up playing it alot more.

every year or so i try and give at the speed of life another chance, and im still never quite impressed. its a solid album, a definate 3-3.5 mics, but it aint classic. especially considering it dropped in 1996.

the second album, more of the same. its pretty solid, and there are some great tracks, but definately not classic.

My fav favourite xzibit songs are probably

At The Speed Of Life
Papparazzi
The Foundation
Whats The Diffrence
Concrete

In that order.
At The Speed Of Life is too sick.

wow i actually agree with you



lets celebrate

Appreciated.

At the Speed of Life was an incredible album; great production and lyricism at its finest (i.e. "The Foundation," "Paparazzi," "Carry the Weight"). One thing that stops me from calling it "classic" though are the atrocious guest appearances by Hurricane G. Yikes. I find myself fast forwarding her verses basically every time I listen to the handful of songs she's on...

40 Dayz & 40 Nightz was dope too.

she was on one song



i thought there were a few meaningless tracks mixed with some dope ones

At The Speed Of Life had some great production on a coupel tracks, but then you listen to the next one and the beat is garabge. Its an on and off record, but when its on that shit is hot.

what beat was garbage?



other then plastic surgery which they prolly let ras kass choose the beat i cant see what u mean

I am a huge fan of both 40 Days and At The Speed...

To me At The Speed is a classic...it sounded like NOTHING coming outta cali at the time.

I just found "At The Speed Of Life" on wax for 3 dollars

its amazing how long ago that was now.....that album was so raw in its construction
