The Game – The Documentary 3 (Review)
Impact of a Legend:
The Game is no stranger to the West Coast and being an overall influencer culturally. A lot of time is spent into calling Jayceon Taylor being bipolar by fans recognition, but this album served up by him is anything but. The Game as a legend shooting for relevancy has quite a few records on this offering which capture the West’s modern sound quite accurately. Ultimately, as a legend, it is a blessing that Game is still giving us offerings we care to hear unlike other rappers.
Game’s Production, Lyrics, and Cadence:
Like stated above, the production is top tier. The cadence going into these records is very hungry from The Game lyrically and flow wise – reminding us that Game is still one of the top tier lyricist on the West Coast. Every other track also has above grade stand out features which compliment The Game’s direction very well. Records switch between a Southern fusion, West Coast bay area influence, and sometimes more introspective features like the final track with Marsha Ambrosius.
Game’s Direction:
Ultimately, with that said this is a way more mature album than Game’s past efforts. It and the Kurupt album are on near even footing as far as ratings and more mature direction as far as song development and introspection are concerned.
