5.0 out of 5 stars X's CLASSIC, April 25, 2002

Xzibit wasn't always a West Coast hip-hop household name. Before his popular collaborations with Dr. Dre and the platinum selling Restless LP, Xzibit was a hungry underground LA emcee without a lot of mainstream attention, only vicious lyrics and relentless flow. After making noise with the single "Paparazzi" from his critically acclaimed debut "At The Speed of Life", Xzibit dropped what is still considered his best album, "40 Dayz and 40 Nights". Fueled with a mixture of East Coast wordplay and West Coast themes the album was almost automatically dubbed a Classic. Not that the backing of Los Angeles's Likwit Crew with the dark and demanding production from Sir Jinx didn't add to the fire power of the albums tracks. The thundering soundscape of "Chamber Music" demands the listeners attention from the beginning and the Rass Kass and Saafir backed "3 Card Molly" only certify the lyrical capabilities of the West's finest. As Rass puts it "If you're looking for sympathy then you better look between R and T in the ... dictionary", because no sympathy will come from this record, only 17 tracks of raw west coast hip-hop. The albums acclaimed single "What U See is What U Get" became an anthem on its own and "Los Angeles Times" paints a vivid picture of the LA streets. Those of you who didn't hear about the black John McClain before shouting out a Restless "X" at a club need to hit rewind and listen to the Xzibit at his finest moment.

The X-man really impressed me with his debut single "Papparatzi" and the mellow, but deep follow up "Foundation." This album is really well put together in terms of melody and production. The Golden State Warrior immediately gets your head jerking with the first track "Chamber Music". Xzibit then teams up with fellow Californians Ras Kass and Saafir on the banging "3 Card Molly." Your attention is kept then on "What you see is what you get"," Handle your Business", and the Quincy Jones sample laced "Nobody Sound Like Me."Hip hop heads should know where he got the exercpts for the hook from." From there the album drifts off with "Pussy Pop (featuring Meth and Jay-O felony)" and "Shroomz." After that you will adjust your volume with the slick, up-tempo sounds of "Focus", the thought-provoking "Deeper",and the bass kicking sound of "Los Angeles Times." In addition, X gets some dope assistance from the Alkoholiks and King T on "Let it Rain." Lastly, the LP is finished off nicely with "Inside Job", and "Recycled Assassins".
