is it just me or does Game "name drop" way too much?

[The Great Elephant]

he pulls it off pretty well on lax

sometimes he's clever with it, sometimes not

[al3000]

Don't get me wrong. I think Game is one of the best rappers of this era but after listening to 'L.A.X', it seems he can't make a track without throwing in a line comparing himself to someone or some predictable punchline mentioning someone. Don't label me a hater or anything, I just can't help but say something about it.

naw it's just you man.......I've never heard him namedrop until this album

[Dusan123]

Shit I used to love the name dropping.....buuut now that shit's old...maybe he is too.

[Prof@ssor]

Depends on when he uses it:

A) Name dropping on Game's Pain ---> paying homage to old school, therefore him name dropping is cool and reasonable
B) Name dropping on My Life ---> pathetic that he has to name drop so many random people on a track that is suppose to paint a picture about his life

as you've perfectly explained, there are different types of name dropping...the one i hate the most, is the exaggerated "Dr. Dre this blabla Dr. Dre that" Game does very very frequently!!

[Trav Treezy]

The nigga name drops cause he aint got shit to talk about. He aint live that banging lifestyle he potrays cause if he did the shit would come out in his music not the name dropping shit. And that's not being a hater just keeping it 100.

im not a hater, and i dont bang his music, havent even dled his album, just saying the truth, every song ive heard from him is the same namedroppin bullshit


u sound like a stan

[BlueSwan]

Actually, back when The Documentary was out, I found the namedropping a bit annoying, but as time has gone by I've gotten used to it. I still found it a b it annoying when DA coame out, but with LAX it hasn't bothered me in the slightest. Generally speaking I think his flow and his rapping in general has gotten progressively better with each album. He's sick on Angel.

[you gon always be my latin queen bitch]

yeah it seems crazy but thats the way it is
