Release Notes:
Boo Bitches! Happy Halloween a little early from your friends at Def
Jam...Thanks to Jay for hooking this up early.
This album is HOT FIYAH (c) Dylan!
Yes the rumors you heard are true, no more Aftermath, no more Dre, no fear tho!
Production doesn't even lack a little with superstar production from Will.I.Am,
Just Blaze, Scott Storch, Kanye West, Swizz Beatz & Hi Tek.
Album is sick, explains a lot of things between the whole 50/Game beef and what
followed after internally.
Doctor's Advocate is the track with the story check it out.
-
looks like a good tracklist for the most part
-
this album is SICK... even though all his producers aren't "westcoast", the vast majority of the beats have a very "westcoast" feel to them, remnicient of the 1999/2000 sound. lots of references to our favorite songs too.
game talks about the beef with fase on "one night"... apparently fase has already heard the song because he talked about the hook a while back.
EDIT: just blaze on that "remedy" beat... sounds VERY dre-ish.
-
I'm ready for the Bonus CD, I haven't been keeping up with all these tracks. Was there a lot of leaked shit that didn't make the cut? all I've heard is "Let's Ride" and "One Blood" like once, so I'm gonna have fun with this tonight.
-
8) 8) 8)
-
I wonder why they took off the Mary J Blige song, Timbaland production song and the Hustlers Dream song with Anthony Hamilton which sounded really good.
-
Damn, why didnt the Timbaland cut make the track ? I wish they'd cut that Nas track to 5 mins and add that Timbo joint
-
wouldn't get far his HILARIOUS even though game bites pac at the end. kanye rips his shit up
-
What happened to "Gutter" produced by Storch. It was suppose to be one of the tightest cuts on there according to Game.
Yo Detox do you know what the name of the Timbo produced cut?
-
if so where can i find it.

Gutter= Too Much
Nah I dont know the name of the Timbo joint.
Oh okay...have u listened to it yet? If so how is it?
-
gonna try avoid this for as long as possible, im hyped about the new game album and wanna listen to it on release date.
-
Yes the album was realy leaked. If you wanna know where just ask me beacuse it's almost halloween and I'm in a good mood :P
-
What kind of dirt you got?

Oh okay...haven't u listened to it yet? If so how is it?
Hard to tell after one quick listen. Couple great tracks, couple wack ones, some solid ones.
I think overall Documentary is a better structured album but its a dope sophomore album.
My rate: 4/5
Coo...to tell u the truth I don't think The Documentary was a classic. It was very good maybe even great but not a classic.

the word classic gets thrown around way too much... neither the doc or the doctor's advocate is a classic.
doc's advocate is a VERY good album though. my favorite albums released this year were ghostface and lupe fiasco... doctor's advocate somewhere up there with them, to give some indication. i wouldn't say any of them were classics, but all very dope and very close...
i've got maybe four or five albums that i call classics... and none have been released within the past few years.

Lol @ "Ol English" being produced by Timbaland.

Doctor's Advocate is the track with the story check it out.
After one full listen DA is no worse or better than The Doc. Game seems to have pretty much re-created the same concept with this album and luckily he has a story to tell (No Dre). DA is definitely a more Westcoast sounding album.
-

you're right! it sounds really familiar... at least the first four bars... i can't put my finger on what its from though
Got it! The "freestyle" on Rapcity over the Jime Jones beat. Freestyle my ass :P

lol what you think, an artist like Game actually free'n on rapcity?
-
oh yeah, given all the dickriding i've done i should also mention one of my dislikes:
i can't believe that trash ass track with swizz beats is the song he bumped off another song for. its one of the worst beats i've ever heard, game is horrible on it.
still, DEFINITELY copping this.
-
damn no cool n dre, i was sure they were gonna supply game with another hot ass beat...hopefully we get sum bonus songs and there shit is one of them.....whos gonna put "Hard Liqour" on theres as a bonus track (even tho its old, still a dre beat never the less)
-
i'm changing my fuckin mind, this album is meh...forgettable
-
man Im listening to the first track right now and I can already tell this album is off the fuckin hook! shit!!!
-

Im with u on this one.
-
i heard all hose interviews with cool & dre about the games album saying they did hot ass beats for games album and all this shit....and they didnt even make on track on the album...dissapointed..
can someone do a small track by trakc review??
-
- Jonathan Rotem produced the 2 best tracks on the album. I'm not surprised.
- Storch, Kanye, Swizz & Blaze, maybe the 4 biggest names, all delivered sub-par beats. :-\
- Xzibit fuckin owned Game on his own shit. :o
- While there's few weak tracks, the album doesn't have a cohesive sound, the beats are all over the place.
- Dope album, but like predicted, not better than Documentary; beats are worse, and the subject matter is pretty much the same, Game improved his flow though.

co-sign, this album lacks structure.
my only favs so far are Too Much and the Kanye track.
-
Damn I gotta check this out after having you 2 haters say that shit's aight
-
Where can i get this leak?
-
Damn, why didnt the Timbaland cut make the track ? I wish they'd cut that Nas track to 5 mins and add that Timbo joint
damn they released the 9 minute version? i liked the short version
-
prolly see those tracks you guys see missing on special edition or sum shit...nice album anyway 8)
-
I'ma cop this on the 14th of November, but I'll give it an early spin...can some1 hook it up?
-
First thing, IMO "The Documentary" was overrated. Wasn't a fan of it because of the influence of G-Unit was stamped on this, and it seemed too commercial. Don't get me wrong, it's a good album, but it's not a hot album.
However, this album blows "The Documentary" out of the water. This is by far the best mainstream rap album to drop this year. First, no horrible skits, bangin' music from beginning to end. The overall production on here is better than The Documentary (and yes this includes some of the tracks Dre produced), and the production on here shits on the non-Dre produced tracks on The Documentary.
A lot of tracks sound like they came straight from the golden era of west coast rap. "California Vacation" is ridiculous, and could potentially be a California anthem. That track should be a single, cuz it could be a monster, especially if he does a Bay 2 LA remix or something. But another song people are overlooking is "Remedy". This beat sounds just like something Snoop DOGGY Dogg and Dr. Dre would rap over in 1993, and sounds like Just Blaze stole this beat from the DR vaults.
This is the first album in a while I'm actually looking forward to buying in the store that'll be worth the $12.

Co-sign. California Vacation sounds like the 2006 version of G-Funk. Remedy sounds like some Niggaz4Life NWA shit (I know they used the same sample in Puppet Master ft. Dr. Dre back in the day). Props to Game - this album is something serious.

Agreed. The main problem with this album and plenty of other rap albums is the amount of different producers. The album doesnt have a vibe, its again a universal album. 3,4 tracks sound completley out of place.
I actually think the album has a similar vibe throughout, no tracks really sound out of place. I'm not gonna hate on Game for doing the same shit everyone has been doing, even your boy 50. This DA album is a dope album despite its amny flaws. I'm still stuck about if its better than the Doc, but one thing we know is the singles aren't even getting close to touching the singles on the Doc. 50 absolutely KILLED Hate it Or Love it and How We Do, he even had me anticipating his own album, only to drop fucking wack ass singles (Jus a lil bit and Candy shop???) I do know this album shits on most shit dropped this year, and everything G-Unit has released since GRODT.
Bottom line, we all long for back in the day when artists were cohesive. Commercially, pretty much the only cat who's albums sounds cohesive are Kanye's, regardless of whether you hate the dude or not.
-
The mixing is pretty damn good on this album... but i liked the mixing better on the cd single of one blood better.
-
This might be the modern day westcoast classic Cali's been waiting for...
-
Downloaded. Listening now.
-
The only tracks I'm not feeling are Da Shit and Scream On 'Em. The rest of the album is pretty crack.
-
anyone else catch the all about you replica ending on wouldnt get far?
-
anyone else catch the all about you replica ending on wouldnt get far?
LOL - yeah. The Snoop talking part.
-
Holy shit. What a tight ass album.
-
to me this album is more west coast soundin then his 1st .. production seems to be more aftermath orientated also .... i tink if i have 1 complaint its the fact he asked for 2 much dre soundin production by producers who aint quite on the same level sum came with it sum didnt .. the albums variety served in its favor on the 1st album i feel
-
Yeah I agree with the dude that said "Remedy" is real old school. I was thinkin the same shit myself when I was listenin to it "Damn this is some early Death Row type shit"
-
Yeah I agree with the dude that said "Remedy" is real old school. I was thinkin the same shit myself when I was listenin to it "Damn this is some early Death Row type shit"
Yea, for sure. I see Remedy as the next single (keep in mind, I'm still on track 12). I thought "Compton" sounded real old-school. Damn, I'll never doubt Will.I.Am's production skills, agian after that track. Would be 10/10 track if the hook was a little better.
-
^^Yeah thats the first thing I thought of when I heard Compton, a real old school sounding track very nice.
-
remedy reminds me of "tha shiznit"
-
Yeah Remedy does sound like a mid 90's Death Row song, man I'm loving the feel of this album.
-

Yeah man Compton is tight. I like how he sampled that COMPTON from "Real Muthaphuckin G's".
-
So far, I'm diggin' it. Not as much as "The Documentary", but I kinda expected that. It's still got a LOT of hot tracks; I'm at "California Vacation" right now, which is hard as fuck and a nice G-Funk throwback (notice the "Funky Worm" synth samples thrown in on the chorus). Still feelin "Compton" as much as ever, "Lookin At You" and "Too Much" are also pretty dope, and I agree mostly with what's been said about "Remedy".
In fact, so far, it seems obvious to me that "One Blood" and "Let's Ride" are pretty much the two weakest tracks on the album, which is ironic cause they were also the first two singles. Game really should've chose better. I also didn't like Swizzy's "Scream On Em", tho that's mostly cause Game himself just doesn't know what to do on this track.
-

Personally i don't think Will.I.Am should have gone anywhere near this album. He is not very hip-hop for me. Especially to produce a track about Compton.
-
this album is pretty nice so far. glad he is away from gunit. they arent releasing anything worth listening too much anymore, and game doesnt have to have their wack shit on his album.
-
Lol at Will.I.Am not being very hiphop. You do know that he was signed to ruthless records back in the day right?
-
I'm done the album. Honestly, defanitely a dope album. But i think the Doc. might be a little better. No totally wack tracks 2 me, but there's a few "avergae/below average" tracks on here, then there were on the doc. Atfer only 1 listen (my mind could change, with a few more) "Da Shit", "Scream On Em", "One Night", "Ol' English", "Around the World", "Hate The Game" are all pretty much average. "Lookin at You", "One Blood", "Lets Ride", "Compton", "Remedy", "Doctor's Advocate" are all dope, and then "Too Much", "Wouldn't Get Far", "California Vacation", "Bang" are all above average, but below dope.
-
Sounds dope...
I've only listened to One Blood and Let's Ride.
Will listen to the rest when I buy it when it's in stores.
Peace 8)
-
Sicc.. 8) Dope album
-
WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO ALL THE G UNIT FANS THAT WAS IN HERE
-
I think Game should move the release day up to Nov. 7th again cus the two week early leak might hurt his sales.
-
Listening now.
so far some gope as shit. I actually though Compton would be a good single. I can imagine in the clubs
-
This might be the modern day westcoast classic Cali's been waiting for...
Oh just stop it >:(
-
For me the album doesn't get going until the fourth track. The first two tracks, Game sounds waaay to much like Dr. Dre voice-wise to be comfortable for me to listen to. One Blood is just noise to me. After that, the album bangs from tracks 4-8, even though Remedy has that old sample (Game's best flow on the album) and Compton's hook is a little bit too over the top; and, once again, Nate Dogg is wasted on his hook. But that's just nitpicks on this part of the album. Then you have to drag yourself through the eastcoast section of the album, even though Game does get a little more personal. I wish he would get political though. I can tell he has some Death Certificate type political content in him. But does he want to go there as an artist? Dude has almost no substance at this point, and he's already through two albums. Anyway, then it's back to banging westcoast with Cali Vacation (Snoop and especially Xzibit!!!) and Kurupt was decent on Bang (that's also probably the hardest Jelly Roll track I've ever heard --> thumbs up). Then filler with Jamie Foxx and a good but filler-esque verse by Nas, with an epic-sounding ending with the chorus that doesn't seem to vibe with the hardcore sound of most of what came before it.
Overall, good album, but that's what a big budget will buy you. I'll wait for Blue Carpet Treatment. I think the best songs on there will be equal to the best songs on here. Will see.
...My two cents.
-
NOBODY send me this link!
-
I'm surprised no one has noticed that that Remedy sample is the same one that Dre & B-Real rhymed over off the first Soul Assassins album. I actually think Muggs did a better job with it that Blaze did, but it's a hot sample regardless.

ahhh...i knew i heard that beat somewhere,sounded real familiar jus couldnt figure it out,now i gotta go listen to that one thx
-
tracks are solid, but i dont think there is that 1 hit song that can dominate local radio stations. its gonna be heard pickin the next single...it might be the difference of floppin and success.
-
Would somebody PM me a link?
-
That's a very good album... 2 or 3 tracks I don't feel.. this isn't better than the Doc or on the same level but I think it's safe to say , Game got the best sophomore album for a hip hop star..... I mean the album is not perfect but the weakest tracks aren't BS tracks. Plus I'm glad the sound of the album is kinda raw, there aren't a lot of pop tracks.
Game did it on his own... sth Em , 50 or Snoop weren't able to do, I mean without Dre overseeing the whole album
-
Does anyone else think it's funny/pathetic how busta rhymes is pleading to Dre about Game on #9
-
I'm surprised no one has noticed that that Remedy sample is the same one that Dre & B-Real rhymed over off the first Soul Assassins album. I actually think Muggs did a better job with it that Blaze did, but it's a hot sample regardless.
I noticed but where is the original sample from? also did they actually sample it or replayed it?
-
Can someone help me get a link 4 the album??? I got hotmail and msn hook a brother up! what do i need 2 do?
Someone PM me, i live in sweden so its pretty hard to find a link this early :P Peace
-
i wonder if the 9th wonder track will leak...was looking forward to hearing it...anyway, im downloading this now, expecting a decent album from what everyone is saying...

ahhh...i knew i heard that beat somewhere,sounded real familiar jus couldnt figure it out,now i gotta go listen to that one thx
Black steel in the hour of chaos?
-
im on track 3 and it's doope so far
-
Snds dope after a few listens! Still gonna cop it on 14th tho!
-
dope album
hopefully snoops album is hot too, finally some decent west coast music
-
sounds good....but nothinm on this album touches 5 of the classics from games cd (Westside Story, How We Do, Hate It or Love It, Dreams & Put You ON The Game). however this albums songs outshine alot of the rest of documentary
ill def cop it it will prob grow more on me
-
its a 3 of 5 album, the beats is good but cmon, how can u listen to this all the way trough with his bullshit lyrics. in the end of the album i found myself laughing at all the repetitive shit he says, lol
-
damn that album is great. no annoying RnB bitches, except for the last track, and it's aight there cause it puts a nice, soft ending to the album. not to many rapper features, and only good features at that. snoop really came way tighter than I expected him to be, and x simply rips it. to the haters claimin game is eastcoast, they can suck it now, and they know it. this album has some real westcoast shit on it. game always comes good, on every beat. less name dropping, no g-unit disses. some hot lines, like the jay-z diss. great lp.
-
i heard the whole album the gayme is definitely not my cup of tea but i do agree there is good tracks in this album,nothing really fly too tho ...don't extrapolate my comments u idiots

Whern I heard 'Remedy' I immediately thought of Quik's 'Born And Raised In Compton' especially with the song 'Compton' right before it.
The original sample (at least the bassline) is from Isaac Hayes - 'Hyperbolicsyllabicsesquedalymistic'
It's been sampled quite a few times (eg Ice Cube's 'I Gotta Say What Up', ATL's 'Just Kickin' Lyrics')
-
Unfortunately where game really falls down is that he doesn't portray the california lifestyle enough and the issues that affect cali. I didn't really want to hear him talking about his relationship with other artists all the time and in the future people will look back on this and say nice production but wtf is wrong with the lyrics.

yea, true
-
i didnt really like the documentary so its safe for me to say i like this better
the album is bangin, good to heard its more "westcoast" than the doc
by the way: do u notice the only people hatin on the album all use "gayme"? :laugh:
-
Documentary is better. You can't touch an album like that. However, this is the best sophomore album I have heard in awhile. No BS about chains and grills. Production is sick even without Dre. Sounds more westcoast and the guests come with fire. Just Blaze impressed me on his 2 tracks. This might be the album of the year. I am liking it more than Busta's so far. We will see. I will find out once I give it 10 spins.
-
It's the dirty version leaked yet???????????????????

the album rules!, there are are few songs i dont feel the that much, but the others are :o

its almost identicle to black steel in the hour of chaos (public enemy......youngsta's do your homework). seems like blaze has been recycling fairly well known samples as of late(i guess he feels that their old enough to the point were no one will notice)............as far as the album, i really cant add anything thats hasnt aready been stated......about even wit the doc, sum filler here n' there, and yes, the album could have had a more cohesive feel to it......only heard it once all the way thru, gotta give it sum more time......but damn does he sound more like dre then ever.........still one of the better albums this year, or last year for that matter

yeah i was kinda perpelexed when that beat came on. I was like Just Blaze aint really do nothin to this beat. Black Steel is probably my favorite public enemy song ever, so its kinda cool to hear game spittin over it..
-
like the jay-z diss.
wont be downloading, but will buy.
whats he say about jay ?
-
Compton, Remedy, Doctor's Advocate, California Vacation & Why You Hate The Game are allright.. but not really my kind og music
-
this album is dope as fuck, i love it def. gonna buy it 8)
-
I feel that The Documentary had more obvious singles on it, but this album is better as a whole, its has a close to time-less sound. Im really likin it so far, definetly coppin it!
But GOT DAMN he sound like Dre on some tracks!?
-

How is that cut with DPG for anyone that has heard it?
-
7/10, people hyping this up way too much. Some beats are good, others are horrible (The Swizz Beatz track comes to mind), but the main problem is Game is boring to listen to as an MC, name dropping everywhere (and normally the same people, well actually almost always Dre) and using the same style on every single track. Have to file under had promise, but ultimately didn't fulfill it.

Very well said, +1 though upon a few listens it's still shits all over the Documentary.
-
hit me wit a link.
-
god damn this cd is dope!!!! 8) West coast motha fucka's!
-
Yal niggas aint never gonna be satisfied. This album is dope as hell. BEst album from the westcoast in like forever. FInally a westcoast sound that is just damn tight. The fluid theme of the album is westcoast. Way better than doc, this nigga is doin the thing and the bar has finaly been raised for the west to start to producing good shit not garbage. Yall niggas aint never gonna get what u want, this shit is a straight banger hands down. And he did it without Dre and 50
-
Will.I.Am actually fucking killed it on the "Compton" beat. I'm surprised how great this album sounds so far.

Damn, I do not want to download this, but I may have to check it out.

-
yeah, damn he does sound a lil' like Dre on some tracks, overall dope westcoast album, probably the best I've heard this year, hopefully we'll get a couple bonus tracks or something on the special edition.
-
anyone feelin' that track with nate? i'd choose that as the 3rd single....and lovin' the kanye joint as well.
-
This album definitely surprised me, a lot. I was thinking it would be a very mediocre album, and that it would be seen by most as a flop. However, I realized that he has had MAJOR buzz, and I was like damn, if this album is at least decent, it should sell a lot...but this album is fire.
I'd give The Doc a 9.2, and after 2-3 listens, I'd give this a 8.4.
Positives: Production is on point on almost every beat. Game's voice and presence is remarkable, even though he does sound just like Dre on many tracks. Has a decent range of topics, and doesn't sound boring on anything. Album has a consistent sound overall, and sounds much more West Coast than The Doc...but doesn't sound outdated or played out at all, as many West Coast albums do nowadays. Although there may be 1-2 songs that are considered to be weak, they don't take away from the album, and are still listenable. Doesn't have a grip of guest appearances, and holds the album on his own. Album has MANY songs that just sound complete as being songs, and sound as if he really sat down with the producer and discussed the direction of the song and the beat. Uses MANY concepts and elements that haven't been heard in a while, such as the movie clips, Mac Minister talking on the track in true DPG form, the female singin on the track in true DPG form, the scratchin of the hooks, the breakdowns in "Compton" that sound VERY early 90's NWA style. Guests hold their own on every track, and it doesn't sound like he just threw anybody on any song. Sounds as if he really spent time on the whole thing, and didn't just rush it and throw it together. Definitely doesn't sound as if he was trying to make a watered down, commercially appealing album....but succeeded in making an album that will appeal to most rap fans while maintaining a very street, gritty feel on most tracks. And overall.....proves that he does not need Dre or 50 to make a good album, which will shock most people. Most people who don't know Dre isn't producing on it will not even care after hearing it.
Negatives: No strong, standout, potentially classic radio/commercial type of songs, such as "Dre day" "Nothin but a G Thang" "Gin and juice" "California love" "How we do" "Hate it or love it" "Drop it like it's hot" "Still D.R.E." "G'd Up". He has some standout tracks, but they are standouts for album cuts, and nothing that will be on top 25 countdowns five and ten years from now. He does namedrop TOOOOOO much, and he mentions Dre's name way too much on many tracks. It is cool to an extent, but sometimes it's just like damn. He uses the same references as he's used on the first album and all of the mixtapes. This won't impress those who are harsh critics of "lyricism" or those who are heavy on hearing punchlines. Doesn't even have a strong club hit, which many mediocre and even garbage albums seem to have.
Overall: One of the best West Coast albums of the year, and possibly for the decade. Definitely holds his own, on his own.
-
There's a few good tracks on here, but as a whole, the album is wack, no B.S.. Dude's mixtapes are better than this shit imho.. I give it a 3/5..

Great Review. He does sound like Dre in some tracks and drops his name way too much. His lyrics aren't the best, but he definitely improved from first album (weak link in California vacation track). His production team on the other hand is real good. Compared to what everyone else is producing, these beats are a refresher (through the whole album).
He references how many albums he sold way too many times. I was wondering what he rapped about before he sold # of albums and I remembered he named dropped a lot more before. A solid Westcoast album. It shows how strong Left Coast rap was in 94' when someone can make a 2 whole albums off the coast's coat tails of 94'.
Best track: Too Much Ft. Nate [Let your ponytail blow in the wind] shit makes me laugh, I don't know why. Makes me think of ice-T on a 64' letting his ponytail go.
Worst Track: One Night (Not a bad beat; shows how strong production team was)
Receives a 7.5/10.
-
anyone feelin' that track with nate?
Yeah, that was def one of the stand-out tracks on the first listen.
-
There's a few good tracks on here, but as a whole, the album is wack, no homo.. Dude's mixtapes are better than this shit imho.. I give it a 3/5..
Why did you feel a need to put a "no homo" here??/

Why did you feel a need to put a "no homo" here??/
it was completely necessary.. you never know in this day..
and why is strip club hated on so much? only thing bad about it, is that game tries to be like 50 (but still sounds good) (no homo)
-
Its a nice album, nowhere near a classic but still nice. It has some real bangers on it. But still not a dissapointment.
-
Dope album, no question about that! Imo DA > TD.
-
How is that cut with DPG for anyone that has heard it?
def. wasnt feeling it...one of the few wack tracks on the album..and I like DPG.
-
Worst Track: One Night (Not a bad beat; shows how strong production team was)
so you complain about the name dropping and lack of content..then feel his lyrical content on dat let the track down??...thought dat was one of the more personal song on there..talkn bout his brother an his old boys...thought that tune was a banger myself...
weakest track 4 me defintly strip club...only song i really skip....feelin this album alot amore after listenin 2 it blazed 4 the first time....lotta really dope songs...plus a dpg appearance...game exchanged verses dope wit them....ol english,doc's advocate and why u the game..are all ill....and the album runs through nicely overall..definitly gunna get alotta rotation from me...
-
Digging quite a few songs, will probably buy this, didn't buy his first though - not a big fan of 50...plus this one is more westcoasted out
-
I know alot of people been complaining about the lack of commercial singles, but do we want him to do a song like "Candy Shop" or "Mezmerised" ? Imo this is real hip-hop which may not appeal to alot of people, but then again back in the days (if we're talking about REAL hip-hop) there weren't people doing 10x platinum e.t.c. so I feel he is going back to his roots.
I think he should had taken Pac's advice tho and make a couple or atleast one song for the ladies, cuz they do buy albums too and this album was kinda hard from beginning to end.
Game did say this album would be alot darker than The Documentary, so I didn't expect a party album even tho it seems alot of people did, but Game made a choice and that choice will hurt his sales but at the end of the day if that's what he needed to do then that's what he needed to do.

Your reaching kid, that song is COMPLETELY different to the 2 that are mentioned. IMO if Game's got any sense that should be his next single though.
And am i the ONLY person who actually liked te Swizz song? Oh well an old RR head would like it. lol
-
this shit is 10x better than "Documentary"
he kept it real on here, got some clean(er) production, doesn't sound so corporate yet it's clear and good quality at the same time
I thought his lyrics were fine, usual style but he did keep me interested
I like all the tracks except for 4, 8, 9, 14, 15
standout tracks are 2, 6, 7, 10, 13
overall the key to this is replay value and to me it has lots, much more than his previous

Are you comparing "Around The World" with "Candy Shop" & "Mezmerise" ? LOL! You can't be serious, if u'r gonna compare "Around The World" to anything 50 has put out then that's prolly "So Amazing" ... I didn't hear Game sing on "Around The World" but I sure as hell heard both 50 & Ja Rule sing on "Candy Shop" & "Mezmerise".
I know you love 50 to death and all but wake the fuck up nigga lol, this might be one of the hardest rap/hip-hop albums in years with potential to sell.
-
Yeah so Game doesnt sing the hook, he definetly would if he could but he cant. He does sing the hook for Wouldnt Get Far and does an awful job. These tracks are the same becuase they all cater to chicks that was my point.
This album is dope and all but calling it the hardest hip hop album (by that you mean the best i guess) in years is plain silly. I can name 5 better albums from this year easily.
Once again: the album is dope but dont overhype it ;)

Well "Candy Shop" and "Mesmerized" are a LOT different from "In da club" "How we do" "Drop it like it's hot" or even "Just a little bit", which were very dope club songs that will continue to be played in years to come. I am not mad about him not havin anything like this...but it would definitely help him out, and would probably help him to sell even more. If you think about every west coast album that is known to the entire nation and seen as "classic", they ALL have 2-3 commercial songs or club hits that everybody knows.

i like it pretty good album but to say it is better than the documentary is debatable. there is nothing on this cd anywhere near as banging as how we do off the doc. people don't seem to realise how that track was such a ridicolously good single - top quality dre production, prolly the best single he'd produced since in da club - something for the radio and the clubs, 50 cent with a catchy hook, helping the album blow up and sell big.
it wasn't even catering to the masses as such it was just a ridicolously hot club track. unfortunately the club tracks on DA just aint on that level but there are a few nice joints. wait until snoop's album drops i reckon most people will forget about game's cd...but to be fair its the best produced westcoast album we've heard in quite a while...credit to game for putting out something respectable...
-
Remedy sample the Puppet Master track by Dre and B-real from the soul assassins album, damn this track is fire, real old school vibe.
-
Yeah so Game doesnt sing the hook, he definetly would if he could but he cant. He does sing the hook for Wouldnt Get Far and does an awful job. These tracks are the same becuase they all cater to chicks that was my point.
This album is dope and all but calling it the hardest hip hop album (by that you mean the best i guess) in years is plain silly. I can name 5 better albums from this year easily.
Once again: the album is dope but dont overhype it ;)
LOL okay man, different strokes. I guess Rotten Apple and Blood Money are in this list?

Game don't sing as in "IF I WAS YOUR BEST FRIEND" lol u know what I mean...anyway my point is 50 said Ja was singin and then took his style and ran with it, which Game didn't do.
Game came out on some gangsta shit and remained on some gangsta shit, now I agree it wouldn't hurt to have 1 or 2 club/girl songs on there, songs that Ja Rule & 50 are pros at, but you gotta respect Game's decision to not add one of those type of songs.
I won't overhype this album, but The Documentary was a 4/5 with a eastcoast sound, this is a 4.5/5 with a westcoast sound, imo a westcoast modern day classic - but not really a hip-hop classic.
I know alot of people been complaining about the lack of commercial singles, but do we want him to do a song like "Candy Shop" or "Mezmerised" ? Imo this is real hip-hop which may not appeal to alot of people, but then again back in the days (if we're talking about REAL hip-hop) there weren't people doing 10x platinum e.t.c. so I feel he is going back to his roots.
I think he should had taken Pac's advice tho and make a couple or atleast one song for the ladies, cuz they do buy albums too and this album was kinda hard from beginning to end.
Game did say this album would be alot darker than The Documentary, so I didn't expect a party album even tho it seems alot of people did, but Game made a choice and that choice will hurt his sales but at the end of the day if that's what he needed to do then that's what he needed to do.
Well "Candy Shop" and "Mesmerized" are a LOT different from "In da club" "How we do" "Drop it like it's hot" or even "Just a little bit", which were very dope club songs that will continue to be played in years to come. I am not mad about him not havin anything like this...but it would definitely help him out, and would probably help him to sell even more. If you think about every west coast album that is known to the entire nation and seen as "classic", they ALL have 2-3 commercial songs or club hits that everybody knows.
Agreed, 1 or 2 club songs wouldn't have hurt DA, but I still feel like Game went for a darker album with this album, I think the things in his life was way to serious to create a club album.
Game said it himself this album will be darker than The Documentary and imo that's just what it is. Let's see what he got for his third album.

Wow. I've listen to the album twice...and all I gotta say is Wow.
Game really surprised me...i thought he could'nt do it..but he did.
One thing you guys gotta give Game is...he knows how to choose the right beats...not many rappers..actually MOST rappers can't choose the right mix of beats for his albums

That Jamie Foxx joint first this category.
Your reaching kid, that song is COMPLETELY different to the 2 that are mentioned. IMO if Game's got any sense that should be his next single though.
And am i the ONLY person who actually liked te Swizz song? Oh well an old RR head would like it. lol
That swizz song is probably the SICKEST song on the album...the fuckin beat is tight aswell.
-
Even Game himself regrets leaving Dre, and views it as a mistake. But after hearing some tracks from his new album, it seems like he'll end up being one of the few artists that could maintain the same level of quality in their music, without Dre's production and vision.

Game did sing: THIS SONG IS FOR YOUUUUUUU, FOR YOUUUUUUU, FOR ALL YAAAALLLLLLL.
50 was singing since his POwer Of The Dollar days. Yes he was an idiot for dissing Ja but tell me which rapper aint one ?
How are Blood Money and Rotten Apple compared to this ? Both have completley different sounds. While Blood Money and Rotten Apple have an eastcoast, grimey vibe, Docs Advocate is more universal uptempo.
The production on Docs Advocate is way better than the one on Rotten Apple, Games flow is better too, the only thing Banks has in advantage is lyrics. So Docs Advocate takes it.
Blood Money is a different story. Both albums get a 4/5 from me and what Blood Money has in advantage is the whole vibe. Havoc produced like 7,8 joints out of 14, while Game has too many different producers. The whole album just doesnt have a vibe.
So, Docs Advocate= Blood Money>> Rotten Apple
-
infinite in "backs the wrong horse shocker"...
NOT

There's some really good cuts, "One Night" & "Doctors Advocate" are my personal favourites right now.

I remember you saying you like albums with a universal sound.Anyways all Shady/Aftermath cds sound like that.

I think I said that for westcoast cds that are still stuck in the 90's with production from Battlecat, Warren G... And I said they need to be more universal but too much is too much.
And yeah all Shady/Aftermath cs sound like that, thats why these camps havent produced anything classic. Dope ? Yes, but no classics.
-
Shit already leaked :o
can anyone PM me the link 8)
-
Tbh game hasn't done anything special but its solid work which is surprisingly hard to come by. The beats aren't anything new, the 9min track being a let down, the beat doesn't even develop that much through the song, just stays the same. The lyrics, well nothing special. There a load of reasons why i'd say this isn'ta classic but this is a good album nevertheless. Game's good at what he does, in times where the importance of the producer is rising and the rapper is becoming less important he will do well because he has a good musical ear. He's a lot like 50 cent in a way, because however much you hate 50 he knows whats a hit
-
alright so after listening to this album all the way through for what... 3 days i must say that this has to be "one of" my fav. albums to be released in the past year or maybe even more. i like every track, even lets ride is growing, and im going to be listening to the album again on the way to school. this album is the shit, i was even thinking about buying a copy...
-
R.I.P. tats in oooooooooooooooooold english
-
In my eyes a great album, but not a classic.
You just gotta love it 8)
-
can i get a link please, gotta to hear this shit
-
California Vacation in your car = 8)
that's the song of the year
-
I think what makes a classic album is a vibe through out the album, not many albums have this anymore due to them trying to get all the best producers to submit beats for the album. And ends up lacking a musical vibe & direction. Thought Common's BE had a vibe throught out the album.
-
:o This Album shits on "The Documentary" .....Right now "Ol'English" is probably my favorite song..."Wouldn't Get Far" is also a good song...Game & Kanye shittin on the video hoes :D....
"One Night", "Doctor's Advocate", "California Vacation". "Bang", "Compton" = :o :o
-
best track Ol English Bang Cali Vocation Lookin At U D.A. Wouldent Get Far.....
very very very good album
D.A. >>>>> The Doc
-
After some soak time, I'm not impressed at ALL. This should be an instrumental album with maybe just the guests rapping. Sorry guys, I tried and this is hot garbago to me. I mean, we all know everyone wants Detox to come out, but in the mean time, I don't want to hear Game impersonationg Dre on half the songs on his cd. He sounds like Dre to a T on some tracks, very sad if this guy is one of Cali's biggest stars. I only see girls and rap fans under 18 to like this cd. Maybe Im just old schoool.
About 8-9 songs on here that I like, but thats half the album = 2.5 out of 5 = not a good rating. Most people seem to not care about lyrics these days, but Game really needs to step it up. If he ever gets dropped from his major label security blanket, he's in trouble cuz the indy fans won't support someone who can't even write a verse without a) using another rappers name, and b) using a line that another rapper(s) already used multiple times. Also, his infactuation with Dre & Aftremath is VERY suspect. Brings the album down so much.
The good thing I can say about Doc's Advocate is that it is a more mature album, instead of just catering to the clubs. It's still hit and miss on the lyrics, and it's mostly a miss.

dont worry game fans, a meth addict's opinion doesnt matter for shit anyways, especially if he's from jersey and rides the west's dick like its the thing to do. FUCK PHILLYPHAG
-
^^^But didnt you just make a thread about Jim Jones having 3 certified classic cds? So, youre an Eastcoast dickrider if Im a Cali dickrider. And, you dickride me as well. If I have time Ill go through your posts and show you that about 60% of your posts were made trashing me. Good for you, still trying to get karma by talking shit about me. ;) Good contribution to the site/
Also, I'm not the only one who feels this way about Game, but you don't say shit to anyone else?
-
Yeah I made a bet with some one that if Game didnt go plat within 6 months I would gladly change my screen name to something saying how "talanted" game is. I dont remeber exactly. ill have to look up my post history...actually i wont have to because game wont go platinum anyways. posted by phillyboy
::) ::) ::) ::) ::) ::) ::) ::)
Your opinion will be changed in less than one month when the game will reach platinum status and you'll have a screen with this!!!
hahahahahahahaha
-
^^^ I still don't see that happening as Game's buzz is close to 0 on the Superior Coast, however even if he does, that doesn't mean much of anything as far as the music being good. Young Joc & Rick Ross are headed to platinum and have the same lyrical skills of Game.
I wont make bad on the bet, and I will change my screen name if he goes plat, cuz Im a good sport.( how bout "game is moderatley good" lol ) Not to many people on here would go through with it. It's gonna be wierd having somebody with Game in there sig saying how poor of a rapper he is though. But I speak nothing but facts.
So nah, my opinion will stay the same until he steps his game up, or at least hires some good ghostwriters ( you would think he would have done it by now ).
Alot of people on this board know how bad and lazy Game is as an emcee, most people don't wanna speak on it though. And alot of the people that do like Game, forced themselves to do so, either because a) wanna be gangster b) they are from West Coast c) they hate G-Unit.
Im thinking 800K at the most by week 6 unless he sells 350-400K in week one.

You really think Young Joc and Rick Ross are on the same level as Game with lyrics? ???
-
^^^ IMO. Last time I said that on here, I got mad hate, but posting that shit on Eastcoast boards, I dont get much of a dispute. I see Game as another manufactured rapper like Ross & Joc. Game may be a little better than Ross ( at least not every song is about the same thing ), but hes about the same as Joc to me. Ive been picking apart the bars on Doc's Advocate and like Rick Ross & Joc, he relys on almost the same way of approaching every verse. Alot of people say, well you can look over the name dropping, but simple facts, he does it TOO much to be taken seriously as someone with talent.
He has succeded in making a better album than the 2 previously named rappers ( add Jeezy to that list too ), but Game is poison to my ears. When I started getting into rap, a rapper's skill level was always taken into consideration and biting was still considered a bad thing. All I really hear from Game except the few concept songs was spitting other rappers names mad times, and on top of that, he spits lines from other classic songs in almost every verse!
I don't hate on anyone for liking the Game. If your a fan, that's cool on every level, I probably like rappers that you think are wack. ( If your a dickrider, and get aggresive on me for saying what I'm sayin like the indian kid from the bay does, then fuck you, you got your own issues to work out before you come at me. ) Many of my friends listen to the guy, I tell them the same thing I'm telling you. Am I disputing that Game has a large number of fans? Of course not. Do I think he will do a mill after 6 weeks? Probably not. I just feel that Game is subpar at his best. I stick by my comments. Like I said just my opinion, don't hate on me . ( I might even have Game in my sig by December ;) )
Oh yeah, and to the little indian boy, I see your still online, but it looks like you ain;t saying shit now coward. Would you like me to keep my responses to a sentence at maximum so you can understand it, and maybe then try to muster a good, competitive reply?

Chill homie, I just asked you a question. You explained yourself and I can respect your opinion. Sometimes you have to stand alone with your beliefs so it's all good. It's just music at the end of the day.
-
I'm chill as can be, the negative aspects of that post werent directed at you Nice. I just quoted you so you would know I answered your question best as I could.
-
I'm chill as can be, the negative aspects of that post werent directed at you Nice. I just quoted you so you would know I answered your question best as I could.
Ok. Yeah I can understand what you are saying. Hip hop as a whole is very cut and paste right now. A few dope rappers here and there. As for Game, he is cool, I think alot of people hype him up like they do because people want somebody other than Snoop and Dre to make some noise from the west.
-
^^^ That's true too. I'm not in Cali, so my views are gonna be different than yours. People in Cali probably hype him up like people on the East do to Jay-Z.
-
That and this is a west coast forum. Most "stans" take it to another level with the dickriding, but fans are fans and through everything he has been through, he still has west coast fans. Kind of surprising to me but it is what it is. I personally feel there are alot of other rappers I like to listen to also other than Game. Glasses got some heat, Bishop is off the chain, Cube is my favorite along with Snoop, I listen to everything. As far as the Doc's Advocate, I think it will do some numbers, not 4 or 5 mil like the first one, but I think that comes with Game being almost larger than the music. His mouth and fighting outside of the music has surpassed the music to me, so now it is like alot of people will cop his album just to see what he has to say. I did not download the album, I will buy it and make a decision then, but dude needs to stand on his own and get some substance to his rhymes.
-
Agreed with pretty much everything u said pimp.
-
yo Phillyboy I think you're takin the shit too seriously that's all
I've thought all that stuff and I agree, he's manufactured
nothing special lyically at all really, a few good punchlines every now and then
the only reasons he's got attention is because the West is dead and he is/was Dr. Dre affiliated
the name dropping wouldn't be too bad if he would mention more people other than Dre, Jay, 50, Eminem or whatever
another negative is that all he does is pretty much mention the same shit
but anyways what I'm sayin is I feel the same way you do, but with this album I just didn't think too hard and it was enjoyable
I'm not even a Game fan but it had good beats and some future West classics
to me it's the best cd I heard this year with all the hype, and I never thought I would say that believe me
-
^^^ That's just how I am when I'm speaking my opinion. I see so many people on here that love Game, with very little disagreence, so I thought I would bring a different POV to the table. The people taking it too seriously are the ones who made my karma drop by 3 since my initial post lol.
I agree with what your saying as far as not thinking hard when taking in a cd like this. It would be a good CD for driving on a highway. I'm more into stuff like Lupe, Tech N9ne and East Coast rappers the most. I like listening to the actual lyrical content more than anything. I wasn't trying to call Game fans stupid or anything like that, but right after I posted, someone was right under me talking that shit on a personal level. That's why I got heated. But it is a board to discuss music. I know everyone on here don't care for me, but I felt like dropping my opinions anyways.
-
Game makes albums that people want to hear for the most part. I always say that 50 and Game are one in the same. As 50 has a ear for hits, Game does also. The 2 singles One Blood and Lets Ride are good records. The name dropping is old but it works for him. I just think it's funny, good thoughts or bad thoughts, I have not seen a mc talked about this much on the west since 2pac. The hype and buzz around him is CRAZY right now. I would like to see him become a more complete mc later on in his career but he is going for what sells now and that is beef and sticking with what you know. From the sounds of most people's comments it will be cool to bump some new shit in the ride along with Snoop and whatever else drops before the end of the year.

youre right about that one, not really anybody else has been poppin on the east like Game since them, save snoop. Games buzz out here has definitley died down ALOT in the last year, which promoted me to think that he's not gonna do spectacular numbers like TD.
-
I'm waiting on November 14th, so I can go cop the album and give my review of it. Game is my favorite rapper in the game at the moment, but many others have their opinions of him. But what many fail to understand it that this is Game's second album, he is still developing and has yet to come into his own. In a few years, I could see Game being a serious problem in the rap game. He just needs to get past that Dr. Dre & GUnot shit, because I think it's holding him back.
-
Philly and D Nice should exchange numbers Huh ??? :laugh: :laugh: J/k

damn, this topic almost got more pages than the "what song are you listening now" topic. Shows Game's popularity is pretty big!

he is gonna sell regardless and he is the west coast right now and is holding it down come on guys you gotto admit this album is good and people will appreciate it so what if dude doesnt have dre he had to hold his ground against 50 and the beats on this cd outshined dres beats in the last couple months
