I want to see Jimmy's reaction to it. Like when he reads that Game intends to do this. He'll probably bust out laughing.
I doubt it will be that extreme but he's going to need a selling point for this project, which makes it tough.

The only way game will be able to putout/sell an album with no features is if he had strictly Dr. Dre beats for the whole album. Dre cant even do that with detox so of course that shit would never happen for game lol

I feel it's impossible. He can't even make singles without features. Just look at Eminem. Two of his singles from "Recovery" had Rihanna & Lil' Wayne. In his rapping career he's never really had a defining song from an album featuring somebody. Now Jimmy's even got his greatest selling Hip Hop artist ever using the "get a popular name feature for a single" scheme.

I almost put it at zero percent. Actually as far as a label backing it, I do put it at zero percent. But if he makes it & releases it for free for his fans, I guess nothing would stop that.

Right but shit i bet half of these rappers ie Em or Game probably doesn't wanna do records with at least half the people they've done with already but like you said at the end of the day they're signed to somebody and they're in the business to sell records and so you have to stay "current" to reach a new demographic especially in hip-hop were things moves so fast, especially for Game who isn't as popular as Em.

Like you said i no for sure that the no features thing won't happen he'll have at least a few whether he wants to or not.

Yeah, my thing is to be a great artist, you need to do that. Too many rappers are just rappers. They'll do albums with all these guest features with them rapping but there really isn't much being said. An "artist" needs to be the driving force behind his music. Game's had every dope-ass rapper and producer at his disposal for 4+ albums, it would be exciting to see what this man does when he strips it all down and just goes for basics. Hopefully, more artists take notice. Rap used to be about great concepts. Now, everything is basically the same.

Word, kinda like Jay did with Blueprint, basically no features and a few certain new producers.

Read between the lines, if this actually did happen, it would be Game's way of hurrying up to rush an album to get off his Interscope deal and head over to Cash Money

There's no way Interscope would let him put out that kind of album

Game also confirmed that his album will have no name-dropping, a oft-criticized part of Gaem's rhyming style.



lol, canīt believe it . without the  name dropping whatīs left of his rhymes? blunts, 40s, chucks, rims, guns .  better have some good production

He can still rap about Impala's, Airforce One's and being a Blood intercepted with lies about how many albums he's sold, so he'll be okay.  8)

Anyway, I'm looking forward to this. R.E.D. was only decent, but all his other albums are dope to me with TDA being a stonecold classic.
