^LOLOL.

[GangstaBoogy]

The songs I really can't fuck with are Paramedics, Red Nation, and Martians vs Goblins. Second half of this album is dope, Lloyd song included. All I Know, Mama Knows, California Dream, Born in the Trap are all sick

I think they were being a bit generous though.

''At a mere 21 tracks long, and featuring 17 different artists, the final product is one speedboat away from being a DJ Khaled album.''

Hahaha

Mista I agree 100%.  I tried hard but only found 3 songs good.

All the hype and shit are why people are dick riding on it.  Any true Game fan honestly would know this is shit.

[polepositon]

this album is garbage. only song that is good is martians/goblins. wtf was this nigga thinking.

[h2k4]

So it's been 2 weeks and this cd has grown on me since my initial spin.  The Dre interludes are useless, the Jeezy song sucks, as does the Nelly Furtado song.  So does the Drake song.

"All I Know" is cool except for the hook.  The Lloyd song grew on me and so did "Drug Test".

Overall, I think it slightly edges out L.A.X.

LOL at hype. I mean yeah there's alot of "hype" around R.E.D. huh? SMH

You do know that people have different opinions just because you expect another DOC or DA doesn't mean other people can't enjoy it or even dislike it like you. By you saying "Any true Game fan honestly would know this is shit" it's obvious that one of the reasons you don't like it is because it doesn't sound like DA or DOC, so you want him to follow a pattern which usually is what westcoast fans do and probably why westcoast isn't succeeding.

Basically anyone in rap not putting out mediocre mixtapes. Don't get me wrong, there's a few heaters on each. But as a whole, every one of those projects is weak. Game has spent way too much time this year making southern tracks, pop tracks, and having wack features. He has zero direction. I love songs like The City where he not only makes a great song but brings in a great future. But for every good song he has made this year, there's two wackass ones. For every great feature like Kendrick Lamar, there's 3 Lil Wayne/Gucci Mane/T-Pain collabs. I mean seriously?

[polepositon]

im rtacctin some of the things ive said. number three is banging,

[OG Jaydc]

Album starts strong. But after about seven or eight songs the album completely nose dives in quality. Reminds me of one of snoops bloated mixed bag albums where the artist just crams as much material as he can because he has no vision for the album. The throw everything and see what sticks technique. While the album has some definite great songs, it also has a lot of wack ones. I think after lax and red now back to back it's safe to say game has no direction as an artist and needs someone to hold his hand and shape the album. Otherwise he's just going to be like snoop continually releasing disjointed messes
