Background

After X-Raided delivered Vengeance is Mine in 2000, he had fulfilled his contract with Black Market Records. Around early 2003, Black Market Records dissolved as an operational entity and all Black Market records effectively went out of print. X-Raided owned all his music from past albums, but not the artwork or albums themeselves.

The X-Filez series was a way for X-Raided to keep his classic music in print and available for future distribution under his direct control. The X-Filez: Vol. 3 contains X-Raided's fifth and sixth studio albums, The Initiation and City of Kings in their entirety. City of Kings is X-Raided's first collaboration studio album, released with rapper Kingpen.
