4.0 out of 5 stars Good album with some momentary lapses, May 3, 2000

By	J. Storm "Hurt Goodbye to the Machine 4/7" (The Abyss) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is Xzibit's follow-up to his debut album, "At The Speed Of Life." On this album, Xzibit displays growth as an overall MC, his lyrics and raw flow both being improved.
"What U See Is What U Get" is just raw, easily the best track on the album. "3 Card Molly," featuring Rass Kass and Saafir, is an entertaining track showcasing the trio's lyrical skills. And "Los Angeles Times" is another nice track with a great bassline. Other bangin tracks include "Focus," "Deeper," and "Inside Job."
Where the album falters is in some of the production. Although the tracks listed above are all well-crafted, others on this album are not. Case in point--"Nobody Sound Like Me," the perfect example of what you get when you cross a lame beat with an un-interesting hook. "Shroomz" features some funny lyrics over an all-out WACK beat, making it very hard to listen to.
Fortunately (at least HOPEFULLY), this problem will not exist on X to the Z's forthcoming album, which will feature mostly Dr. Dre behind the boards. But still, even with a few wack beats, this is still a recommended album. If you're a fan of West Coast hip-hop, you should have "40 Dayz & 40 Nightz" in your collection.

3.0 out of 5 stars What U See Is What U Get, November 23, 1999

By	P Nastee (Erie, PA) - See all my reviews

Xzibit in my opinion is the illest MC from the West Coast. If you truly into lyrics and a true hip-hop head than this CD is for you. What You See is What You Get is the bomb. Xzibit keeps it real thru the whole album. On "Focus" X to the Z displays his lyrical skills and diversity. This album is tight lyrically but the tracks wasnt bangin, the production could've been better. Its a good CD but not as good as his first one "To The Speed of Life." - that one was bomb - a hip-hop classic in my estimation.

5.0 out of 5 stars Xzibit is one of the tightest., April 16, 2000

By	"thegreatgrizant" (Eindhoven, Netherlands) - See all my reviews

Why aren't this guy's albums selling by the millions? I heard him on "B Please" on the last Snoop CD and I went out and bought both of Xzibit's albums. This man has a tight voice, flow, and much of the time his lyrics are great. While I felt this CD grows a little weaker once you get towards some of the middle and last tracks it's still a classic. The song with Meth and Jayo was a bit of a let down for me, but other than that this album has some great tracks. If you hear this album and you like it, pick up AT THE SPEED OF LIFE. That one is even better. I'm just hoping Xzibit will get the props he deserves when he drops his new album that's produced by DRE.
