Quote from: Gamestarr on November 17, 2012, 05:57:15 AMIm so tired of seeing the same features on every single fuckin album out there.Seriously get Al Green on there, pull something outta the Teddy Pendergrass vault, steal an indian bitch's hook or put Cube, WC and Urkel on a joint.Do SOMETHING original/CRAZY/UNEXPECTED. I feel you. This has been a problem for years now. Artists just pull the same guests just about every time. It's particularly tiring for a Game project since he was originally talking about doing this one with no big name features. Hearing that interview where he said he was making this HIS version of "2001", all I could think was he already made that album, six years ago, with "Doctor's Advocate". I've been saying this for awhile, rappers need to go back and start again. As a consumer, I'm not impressed by an overflow of guests. If you're a producer then that works but I like when cats try to limit their guests to maybe one rapper they really respect (like Jay did with Eminem on the first Blueprint) or no guests at all.

Yup, and all his albums have been feature heavy.I honestly think Game has run out of things to rap out. Also it would be kinda late hearing a solo (SOLO) album I think cause we all ''know'' him. It would seem like he was just tellin the same ol hood story once again, thank you lord, thank you momma, fuck you pops, piru, dre, ciroc etc. etc. Im actually also really worried about which beats he picked this time around. It used to be one of his stronger sides but on RED most beats were average or shit and somethin tells me he went even more ''industry'' on this one.

It used to be one of his stronger sides but on RED most beats were average or shit and somethin tells me he went even more ''industry'' on this one.That can be said about all rappers. We've already heard their story yet they continue to put out albums.Game's problem is I don't think he's confident that he can hold his own on a solo effort. Possibly because Interscope put him with features early on in his career and he's still using it as a crutch.We've seen he can hold his own on the mixtapes. He just needs someone to do hooks.I think once he goes independent, we might see him using less features because he doesn't have the pressure to sell.
