Album info

Released in 2004 by Madman Records, “X-Files V.2 Unforgiven Wit A Vengeance” is a two-disc compilation album that solidifies X-Raided’s status as a defining figure in Gangsta Rap, Hardcore Hip-Hop, and G-Funk. The album serves as a follow-up to its predecessor, “X-Filez V.1 24 Garden Blocc Classics,” and dives even deeper into the complexities of life on the streets, rivalries, and the unforgiving nature of society.

Disc One kicks off with a 37-second “Madman Intro,” setting the tone for the turbulent roller-coaster that follows. It then transitions into “Misanthropy,” a 5-minute-plus powerhouse that is a direct commentary on the feelings of distrust and cynicism that often come from being marginalized. Tracks like “Unforgiven” and “Who Is Y’all Niggas” continue this sentiment, delving into themes of betrayal and identity. However, it’s not all doom and gloom; “Mama’s Pride & Joy” and “Whatever It Took” provide glimpses of introspection and vulnerability, displaying the multidimensional nature of X-Raided’s persona. “On The Rise/Outro” succinctly wraps up the first disc with an air of unfinished business, leaving listeners eagerly anticipating what comes next.

Disc Two takes us through another intense journey starting with “Intro: The Prophecy,” a one-minute opener that serves as a declaration of X-Raided’s relentless pursuit of truth. Songs like “Hold On (What’s A Thug To Do)” and “Most Wanted (Who They Wanna Kill)” explore the conflicts and moral dilemmas faced in a life bound by codes of the streets. “Vengeance Is Mine” and “Terrorists” are standouts, showcasing X-Raided’s lyrical prowess in depicting life’s darker corners. Finally, “Outro: We Bang” ends the compilation on a potent note, reminding everyone of the enduring spirit of defiance and survival.

Distributed by City Hall Records and Sumo Productions, “X-Files V.2 Unforgiven Wit A Vengeance” is more than just a compilation; it’s a curated experience of the life, philosophy, and struggles that X-Raided encapsulates. Each track is a chapter, and together they tell the unfiltered story of a man whose life mirrors the harsh realities that he raps about. For aficionados of raw, real, and intricate storytelling, this album is an essential listen.
