Full Circle, released in 2006, is the sixth album from West Coast rapper Xzibit, his first release on Koch Records. To assist in the making of Full Circle, Xzibit enlisted Keith Shocklee of the legendary Bomb Squad as co-executive producer. The Game, DJ Quik, Too Short, T-Pain and Tha Dogg Pound make up the many high-profile guests, and the Chappelle's Show's Donnell Rawlings makes a comedic appearance. The presence of West Coast veteran King Tee is particularly notable for being the first Likwit Crew rapper to appear on an Xzibit album since 2000's Restless.
"Concentrate" was released as the lead single. Produced by the Bay Area's Rick Rock, it sampled and looped "Nam Myōhō Renge Kyō," a mantra that is chanted as the central practice of all forms of Nichiren Buddhism.
Full Circle peaked on the Billboard album chart at #50, shipping 16,659 units. It has now sold 122,606 copies in America and 244,000 worldwide. The album had two music videos which were released for the single "Concentrate" (directed by Little X) and "Thank you".
