X.O Slugz N Snitches OFFICIAL VERSION feat Game, Clyde Devil
Black Wall Street rapper X.O., formerly known as Scipio, finally dropped his new mixtape "Slugz-N-Stitchez". The mixtape was originally planned for a January release but was pushed back from unknown reasons.

We've just received the full mixtape to put up for free download, and that's exactly what we're going to do. After all the drama surrounding X.O. and Bishop Lamont's altercation (what ever happened to that footage anyway?), it's time to hear what Scipio is bringing, now that he's known as X.O.

"Slugz-N-Stitchez" is hosted by The Game's DJ DJ Haze and features guest appearances from The Game, Billy Danze of M.O.P. and Nu Jerzey Devil.
