Another Spin Off Thread

Aight. So this thread above is calling out "The Game Haters." Now, it's time to turn the tables. I notice that people who claim others are "hatin'" on The Game are new fans. They became fans after his signing to Aftermath. So, question is, where were you when The Game was on Get Low? Why weren't you people shoving his dick down your throads then, like you are now? What was the huge difference? Because he wasn't with Dre? Probably.

I remember when QB 2 Compton came out I downloaded it because of Nas, I had no idea who the Game was at the time. I thought he was pretty dope. I don't think I posted here back then though. The Game is terrible now compared to then.

Most hip-hop is now keyboard driven, because the majority of hip-hop workstations have loops and patches that enable somebody with marginal skills to put tracks together,...

Unfortunately, most hip-hop artists gravitated towards the path of least resistance by relying on these pre-set patches. As a result, electric guitar and real musicians became devalued, and a lot of hip-hop now sounds the same.

Well just as somebody in that thread said, it's not that people just started likin him since he got with Dre, but nobody knew who he was before.

With me, I am a lot more for him than against him. I realize there are others who should be in his spot, but that can be said about anybody and anything. Also, I jus don't like how he sounds like a strait NY clone, not just style but accent, and that'll make it seem like the only way West coast people can blow up is if they are with dre or sound NY, and he has both. I think he is dope for what he is, but I donno if he can make a whole album worth of dope material. He sounds allllright on some tracks, but he rips some tracks when he changes his flow, like over the "Cant stop wont stop" beat he raped it.

That's obviously because when you're with Dre, you get a grip more exposure. Get Low ain't shit compared to The Math. Pretty foolish question IMO.

what a BS thread...

whats the point.. beacuse whoever got aligned signed with Dre, even someone Sly Boogy.. you'd still be hating on them too..

the sad truth is this.. underground backpacking groupies wont even look at him now he's aligned with Dre.

yeah i bought the nas/game album, nah i didnt know shit about him.. but then again ~no one did~..  and dont come claimiin ya'll did.. all people knew was that he was a blood from compton and that he was hookin up the the 'math.. and we knew this because.. well.. its in his songs ;) "signed with aftermath so what he bloodin"


All thats happened is he's getting more and more exposure, from mixtape tracks, to the 'live from compton' cd.. etc etc

I mean business-wise. Aftermath's got the 2 biggest sellers right now. What does Get Low have?

People are missing the point of this thread. The point is that people didn't even bother to check him out when he was on Get Low, only reason they checked him out was because he's with Dre.

(At least I think that's the point he was making).

he was never 'with' get low.. JT has put out a bunch of tracks.. game even disputes that JT had the right too.. seems JT got him to sign something a while back for a quick 50k from JT.. JT is a hustla..

So I assume the other thread calling out "The Game haters" would be BS too?

Untrue. I still liked King Tee when he was aligned with Dre. I liked Hittman. I liked Knoc. I wasn't "hating" on them. Your logic doesn't work.

LOL. The real sad truth is that you think Backpackers dug The Game? A few did, but not a lot at all. LOL @ that. Fuck outta here homie.

Nobody knew much about The Game when he was riding with JT, true. But, when he was riding with JT nobody knew he was signing to Aftermath, either. "New school Ice Cube so what he bloodin'" That was the line. That came out WAY after his Get Low times.

Maybe Dre's cum is filling your ears, since you insist on labeling us as haters, you're gonna be labeled as Dre dickrider, but The Game isn't spitting the same. He went from actually making hot songs to saying the same verse(just worded differently).


And true, Aftermath is much larger than Get Low. But, all these people are acting like his biggest fans all of a sudden, where were they when he started? Sleeping on him. Why? Because he wasn't with Dre.

In my case I hadn't even ever heard of him 'til he signed with Aftermath. I make it a point to know as many West Coast artists as I can. But if you ain't exposed to 'em, why should that be considered "sleepin" on 'em? Anyways, once I heard of the dude I hecked all of his shit out and became a fan. What's wrong with that?

Well what I don't get is, if you "make it a point to know as many West Coast artists" as you can, then how didn't you know who The Game was? He was riding with Get Low(and yes he was riding with them, he was dissing Bleek for them), he had a collab album with Nas(while not really created together, nonetheless had the name Nas on it). He was featured on Telas album. Young Nobles album, too. It's not like he was working with just nobodies. People were just sleeping.
