Xzibit Drops 'Urban Ammo 2' With Extreme Music/Sony ATV

 Rapper Xzibit has teamed with Extreme Music, the production music library arm of Sony/ATV Music Publishing, to release a new compilation of material titled Urban Ammo 2.

Xzibit produced, composed and performed the tracks on Urban Ammo 2, which contains 40 tracks, created primarily for professional music users and music supervisors in need of material for their movie/television productions.   

Extreme Music has made two of the 40 tracks from the Extreme's production music library available to the public via iTunes.

Xzibit enlisted veteran director Matt Alonzo to shoot the videos for the two singles, which are titled "Man on the Moon" and "What It Is."

“Working with Extreme has been a wonderful experience," Xzibit told AllHipHop.com in a press release. "The music created for Urban Ammo 2 has been [in] collaboration with artists whom I feel are the next generation of stars in Hip Hop, R&B and Rock. Unleashing these tracks is gonna wreak some havoc!”

Other acts on Extreme Music's roster include Young DE, Quincy Jones, Snoop Dogg, Junkie XL and Paul Oakenfold.

TV shows and movies like "Glee," "Entourage," "30 Rock," "Avatar," "Inception" and various major advertisers have used selections from Extreme's production music library.

The world premiere of both “Man on the Moon” and “What It Is” take place today (April 13th) on Extreme’s YouTube channel http://www.youtube.com/extremeallaccess.
