Xzibit - Forever You Won't ft. Jelly Roll
Artist: Xzibit
Producer: Lil' C
Album: TBD
Label: Open Bar Entertainment/EMI
Hip hop heads are creatures of habit. If an artist drops a successful debut, then waits too long to follow up on it, they quickly become irrelevant. Artists who consistently churn out music, on the other hand, are able to maintain a steady following, even if their subsequent efforts don’t have quite the allure of their earlier work. Since ’96, Xzibit has released an LP every two years, without fail. Thus, you can imagine his fans’ surprise when ’08 rolled around and still no announcements had been made about his next album. While he’s still keeping mum on what’s next, he recently released a new single, titled Forever You Won’t. The track is classic Xzibit, featuring an eerie West Coast beat by Lil’ C, a hook by frequent collaborator Jelly Roll, and a few verses about nothing in particular. Not to rush you, X, but the year is coming to a close—better get to work fast.

This song is decent. I never set the standards very high for Xzibit, even though I really like him, and it's a shame that his biggest claim to fame is hosting Pimp My Ride. I just don;t think his voice fits this beat very good, but it's still a rotation-er for me.

This is a strong track from X to the Z. Actually one of my favorites in recent memory. X usually brings out strong singles but lackluster albums. His old stuff was classic. but the last 6 years haven't been great for him musically. I like this right here, gimmie 15 tracks of this type effort and we'll have that X album we know he can bring us.

This production goes off pretty ill. I've liked some of Xzibit's previous work. I don't know if I really feel this though. He just seems irrelevant...even though he's good. It's kind of sad I feel that way, but I just can't seem to put him high on my list of musical focuses. This joint is decent though.

I want to call this one a banger but I know I'm not going to be bumping this regularly. I'm an Xzibit fan and he's raw most of the time. This is just average for his collection.
