The Game To Release New Album This June
Posted: 01/02/2008
At Nas's New Year's Eve concert, The Game made a surprise appearance and revealed some details about his next album.
The Game announced that his new (and rumored to be final) album will be released this June. It will be called "LAX".
Rumors have Dr. Dre contributing tracks to The Game's new album however these reports are unconfirmed at press time.
The Game's last album, "The Doctor's Advocate", was released in 2006 and was named the best album of 2006 by HHNLive.com

props. just mentioned in the nu jersey devil thread that the cd got it's name changed to lax. June, real close. Dre won't be producin though, fuck a rumour.
-
why maybe his final album? I'm sure he'd like to continue making money
didn't he say he was gonna stop at 30 or something?
also good to see the title will not include something with Doctor or Dre
-

how is lax connected to dre?
aight not really
-
LAX has nuttin to do wit dre, but why the change? anyone know?
-
Hopefully he has stopped namedropping in every single verse by that time.
-
and why l.a.x - do game wanna fly away - kinda ironical insinuation that he wants to retire?
-
^maybe its s metaphor for a launch pad, and hes "shooting off" into the next part of his life.
-
i would imagine "lax" in a way "welcome to the west coast". when u put the record on, that's the feelin u get

funny version. and what would be the next part of his life . to do movies?? and follow cubes or dres steps?
-
Good to hear he changed the name, i like it, L.A.X, kinda like hes leavin and hes done kinda thing, so it makes sense. But hopefully he aint done just yet, hes only gonna have 3 albums under his belt, and he said he wants to retire at 30 a buncha times, so at least make another one after this one or something, which i think he will. Anyways looking forward to this, he said June, but we all know its gonna drop a few months after that, maybe september, and hopefully the 1st single comes out soon!!!

hopefully hes done wit that, cuz i have a feeling this album is gunna be like the rest and "dre", "compton", "low ridah", etc. will get a mention every verse on every song.

8) 6 months

w@cK!

If there are any love songs to Andre Young then I will not be purchasing this.
-
He should make it a double disk album with everybody from the westcoast. just like all eyez on me he should make his last album a classic record that will down in history.

Thats what i've been thinkin for a time.
But SMHHHHHHHHH at droppin it in June..WTF is dude thinkin??
His last album came out NOVEMBER 06..its almost 2 years apart..and he wonders
why he dont sells that much, cuz when u step outta the limelight for a long time they
jump to the next artist and the other rapper thats hot at the moment, i.e. lil wayne.
I dont give a fuck bout sales but thats a fact.
And if dude don't drop verses like on his mixtapes then fuck him. It dont have to be exactly like the mixtapes but just not
Dre, Eazy and all that again. Games mixtapes/Unreleased/Leftovers >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Games Albums
Ayo Focus tell him that niggas been waitin for him to drop verses like on his mixtapes..he needs to realize that!
-
Should be interesting..hopefully he'll get a few dre beats, but most likely not. Ice Cube should drop a 16 on it as well..If I remember correctly back when the documentary came out cube said to save him a 16 on his next lp, but since he didn't appear on the DA he should on L.A.X.

Ayo i've been lookin for that shit for a minute now, can u post or even tell me where he said it?
And yeah Cube def. needs to be on this one, i mean he has already worked with some of the legend (except Big/Pac/Eazy RIP) like
Snoop, Nas, Dre, Em (i would say he's a legend even though i aint a big fan of his dude used to spit heavy), DPG, DJ Quik, MC Eiht, DPG, WC and etc.
One track with Jay and Cube and its done. I would def. like to hear Game and Cube the most though. "The niggas you love to hate".
-
Never mind. Read this from 05 AFTER The Doc dropped.
"Ice Cube gave me some words of wisdom and told me to save him a 16 [16 bars to rap over] on my album, which I will do," Game said. "And he's definitely one of the best lyricists that ever did it. He's a man that I respect and a man that I grew up listening to, being that I'm from the N.W.A melting pot. Ice Cube is definitely a legend."
Strange how Cube didn't appear on DA even though he said it.

Yea I thought that was wierd but Ice Cube did appear on that Lowrider song that was on Stop Snitchin Stop Lyin Mixtape

cube worked with eazy alot remember NWA
-
Dope ... I hope it won't have these wackass rumored RNB guests though ... Snoop , Cube , Game , Nas 1st part of 08 sounds good 8)
-
"LAX" is a good title too, but I like "D.O.C. - Diarys of Compton" more.
-
Tha Game Iz Tha Shyt...Get Wit Itt... 8)
-
L.A.X.....how original.
-
I like the title. Hopefully June will stick...that's pretty close.
I was bumping The Documentary and The Doctor's Advocate last week or so, and in my opinion they're both solid albums. Banging production and mostly (above) average lyricism.
Can't wait to hear what it will sound like...
-
This album is gon be nuts! I really hope Game reaches out to Fase on a track. Props on the news Focus!
-
game is aight
should be some decent shit on there
better then most of the dudes in the game
L.A.X.....how original.
LOL
it better have some meaning other then the damn airport

Idiot, i was talkin bout Game.

So that was official? I thougt maybe that was some blend type shit
-
"LAX" is a good title too, but I like "D.O.C. - Diarys of Compton" more.
But when you think about it, The DOC would probably be a better name for a debut album dont u think??
Plus, DIARY OF COMPTON, that means the album have to a concept album.
-
cant wait 4 it to drop... should be dope
-
The Diary of Compton >>> The D.O.C.
-
THE DOCUMENTARY (CLASSIC)>>>> THE DOCTORS ADVOCATE / L.A.X (or whateva, title will be changed during 6 month more than enough)
-
THE DOCUMENTARY (CLASSIC)>>>> THE DOCTORS ADVOCATE / L.A.X (or whateva, title will be changed during 6 month more than enough)
How can it be better than L.A.X. if it aint even out yet? N i hope u aint talkin bout the titles though. Dont tell me u one of thoes judgin albums cuz of sales and big singles? and to dude who said "The Diary Of Compton >>> The D.O.C. ure playin right? The D.O.C. is just short for The Diary Of Compton, it aint like
the actually name on the album is The D.O.C., its just like when people say The D.O.C. or The D.A. Thats why i think at least.
All im sayin is, he better rap like on his mixtapes. And its still pretty fucked up that he waits SOOO long in between every album.
The Documentary Jan '05
The Doctors Advocate Nov '06
The D.O.C./L.A.X. June '08
Like i said, when you step out of the limelight 2 long, u lose in sales and popularity. I dont care about sales cuz i aint gettin none BUT if an album sell much then the west gon get more attention and its always been like dat.
-
you're stupis messi... Nobody releases a tight album every year... Those that do, release mediocre shit at best.
-
^^ Exactly. Game has the ideal timing because he's by himself, he hasn't put out any artists. Look at 50, he oversaturated the market because a 50 Cent affiliated project is out by the longest every 6 months.
-
I don't see how it's too long .. there even aren't 2 years between each release .. plus releasing an album every year isn't a good move .. 90% of the time , it results in poor music quality and people get quickly tired of the artist anyways
-
I will be checking this. Hopefully he will keep the name dropping and Dre's dick adoring as minimal as possible.
-
I'ma check this out fa sho, both of his last albums have been very dope...
-
People should realize that this name dropping is just Game style .. I know it's boring and the dickriding goes too far but that's what you gonna get on the 3rd lp .. maybe a lil less as some recent guests/mixtapes verses showed
-
It would be dop if Game did a cut with, Snoop, Mc Eiht, Crooked I, Spice 1 and on a track
Maybe had tracks from Cold 187 and get Bone Thugs on a track with him
-
Looking forward to this. I just hope that he sticks with west coast guests and steers clear of Weezy and Jeezy and other guests like that. He needs some Cube, Xzibit, Quik and to get Nate Dogg back in the game cos he has been away to long for my liking.

yeah nate needs 2 be on this

Naw but i mean 2 years is 2 much IMO. Snoop dropped his album a week after Game and is droppin his shit in February, even thougu he dont need to cuz he already deep. But Game is a young cat he gotta deliver cuz he's the one besides Snoop/Cube and all the other legends that u think about when u think about the west so when dude stays away TOO LONG the people just hops to the next artist.
-
Could be a long shot, but I hope Game reaches out to dude's like Eastwood who ain't get enough shine commercially. Those two make crazy collabos...

Snoop with his last 2 albums has released them 2 years apart.

Yeah and i just said it isn't a good idea IMO. And Snoop is already a legend, and he's prolly the most popular rapper out there. But like i said
Game is a young cat and comes from an era were record sales means success to people, especially lil kids. And therefor, he needs to stay more in the limelight to sell more records IF he want A&R's to give more deals to people out West. But like i said i dont give a fuck bout sales and popularity LIKE DAT, only if it can help the west, which it can. Other than that i just want a dope album with mixtape-lyrics and im done.

Lets be honest though, regardless of how long he spends between albums, he is gonna sell less records than his last album because more and more people are downloading illegally everyday. He is still as much in the limelight now as he was when he released his last album.
-
Who i really want on this album and i know alot of other people do too are Cube, DJ Quik, Nate, Crooked I and maybe Bishop Lamont or somethig and a few Dre beats, that would be fuckin unreal!!!

Well i agree on the first part, but def. not the second. I mean dude been caught up with the new son, court cases and all but u hardly ever see homie at awards and shit. Look dont get me wrong, im not like those 106 & park kids that cares about that BUT u know how kids are, as soon as u gone for 2 long either they forget about u cuz its been 2 long since they've seen u, or they go after the next hot thing. All of a sudden EVERY lil 15 year old girl like Wayne, even though he's been rappin for like 10 years or sum. All of a sudden he's the so called "best rapper alive" outta nowhere. U gotta understand these people, shockingly alot of adults to, just follows the bandwagon. I mean u actually got 30 year olds sayin he's the best rapper EVER. My point is, they like the rapper thats on TV and all that everyday.

Real talk lol. They only like this BET and MTV mafuckas, that make hits all the time cause they got fuckin Akon and T-Pain on the hook, guys like Weezy are relevent threwout the year, so he got more of a fan base, dudes like Game are relevent for like a year n then take a year off n then come back, u loose fans like that!!!
-
techniec and eastwood - thats ma dudes!!! need to collab again!!!! cube,quik (game must be fukkin stupid dont makin second song wit quik), nate, snoop (or theres to much snoop), jay rock, bishop, glasses malone, and productions from battlecat and dre.
-
yea IMO keep it west showcase our talent i culd understand nas and jay (although i personally dont like his style he is good) but other than that get a mix of the new cats and old heads definitely hope dj quik shows up on this as well as jay rock, juice, tech, east, cube, and i guess some others put all the new dudes on some long song called the new west or somethin haha...oh yeah get crooked on there

Exactly my point. But i do believe that after Wayne drops his album people are goin to stop followin him like dat anymore, i unno is just have that feelin.
And as far as features: Nas, Crooked I, Snoop, Cube, Jay Rock + Juice on 1 or 2 tracks then thats about it. Yall make it seem like this is a compilation album or sum. Like homie sayin Techniec, Eastwood, Cube, Quik, Nate, Snoop, Jay Rock, Glasses, Bishop..seems to me you wanna hear more about his features and stuff like dat rather then hear dude rap himself, no hatin shit but its seems like dat.
Edit: Damn, just noticed dude made a thread about the same thing i just said LOL.

Game definatly has to hook up with Quik and put some of his material on LAX..
