It is a regular occurrence to come on this forum and see people dissing Game, saying he lost it, he's out of touch, he can't put out good albums without 50, doesn't rep for the West, is fake, blah blah....
But EVERY and I mean EVERY time he releases a project, he dominates this forum like no other - even more so than Snoop and Dre when they have new songs dropping. I just counted on the front page of the forum and there are 13 threads about Game. And funny enough, it seems everyone mostly has positive things to say about the new music he's been dropping.
How about we all realize we have a very talented artist on our hands representing for the West, and while he may have many many questionable decisions when it comes to his personal life, he without a doubt delivers on the musical tip and is consistent as fuck?
I'm all for the New West and the new breed of rappers (particularly Kendrick and Fashawn), but nobody out here is touching Game right now. Stand up for a probable legend in the making. And before the disses come my way - I am by no means dickriding. I'm just stating the facts and how this forum has seemed to operate when it comes to this artist.
-
This isn't funny, this is sad.
-
never really gave a fuck about game, prolly never will. he gets criticized mostly for his antics imo. i do think he's more talented than people make him out to be on this forum though.

I'm not much of a Game fan. I have The Documentary -- it's alright, with very big budget production, but it's also very inauthentic and corny imo. I also like Born in the Trap and wrote so in the song thread. However, I rarely discuss Game here because as I said, I'm not much of a fan. While what you're saying is probably true, I can only speak for myself, and I don't devote a lot of time to him here. In contrast, I've tried to discuss Kokane, especially Gimme All Mine, which was dope as fucc, but I always get ignored. Also, every once in a while a true G-Funk song will come along, and this board mostly ignores it. So I guess that proves your point, actually. Speaking for me only, I ignore the artists I don't like and mostly only discuss artists I do.
EDIT: Also, I should add that some of the people posting about Game right now undoubtedly are Interscope e-team members. They'll disappear in a week or so. You know who you are.
-
Game is the opposite of consistent. Nice essay. Groupie exposed.
-
Honestly thinking about it, what's so special about snoop making him better than game. Career wise? People consider snoop a legend. Game brought some light back to the west in 04-05. Consistently put out solid albums which sell well. Not to mention any artist that has any type of buzz on the west was introduced to the masses by game. Don't wanna take anything from kendrick's hustle but game knows he's on the cusp of blowing up so he threw him on RED. In fact kendrick came up as k dot on a game mixtape. Or how about Ya Boy, Jay Rock, Glasses Malone, Nippsey Hussle. The list goes on. Game's the rapper people love to hate. He's a good rapper, not a good song writer although he does seem to be improving in his concept areas.
-
Snoop in his prime was making classics. Game in his prime was making good albums. Today I'm not hyped about either of them. And stop your stanning. Game didn't introduce anyone to the Game.
-
When he puts out shit like Aint No Doubt About It and some of the other straighr trash hes released he deserves the hate. IMO Games best when hes doing songs like Bang Along, Lost, Monsters In My Head.
-
LOL. That sounds so stupid.
1. The only reason the board is buzzing is because there are 15 people like you on here who think he's actually good & get wet over the idea of his new music.
2. The reason why this forum is packed with Game topics is because more than half of niggas album is leaking & people are making threads about individual songs.
3. This guy impersonates every feature. The best song on this album will be "The City" because he impersonates an actual good rapper lol.
From what I heard, "Born In The Trap" & "The City" are the only two good songs. But the verses have the same recycled "chronic", "Dre", "California", "Aftermath", etc. bullshit lines he's been using. Son is carried by beats & occasionally a dope hook (mostly from a feature). This guy is no great rapper. He's just a small step up from Rick Ross being carried by pretty awesome production.
-

G malone signed a million dollar check because of game. Ya Boy signed to akon. Kendrick is now making his first appearance on an album that will go Gold and close to platinum. Quit your hating. The Documentary is classic. Doctors Advocate is arguably a west coast classic. Real good album imo, LAX was average. Haven't listened to this one yet.
Snoop has also put out some material that should have never been released. Game will put out more consistent solid albums than snoop by the end of his career if he keeps this up. Seems like he really won't go away even though alot of people thought they'd never see this album hitting shelves. Harsh reality for some people.
-
This is just how the net world works though. I still remember when Doctors Advocate dropped and people here complained about every single thing from sales, to namedrops, to the quality etc but now they love that album. Same thing i saw on a few other sites when Documentary dropped. That's just how people on the net work for the most part, they overanalyze shit, hate anything popular, always in stan-wars and forgets to just enjoy music (no matter who it comes from) which is why the same people who hated on a certain album will say that they wished the artist would go back to making an album like that again later on.
-

Snoop has a signature style. He put his city on the map. He brought an entire stable of hungry artists to Death Row. His chemistry with Dr. Dre brought out the best in both of them and yes, Dre mentored him but Snoop brought a lot to the table. Game is good but what are his identifiable trademarks, borrowed or otherwise? He is an entertaining rapper, without question, but he doesn't have it on Snoop.

You really take being a groupie to a whole nother level.
-
Naw, i'm a fan of game's. Ive never understood the hate. Funny people call someone a groupie yet your the first person up in the morning downloading his album lol Sorry i haven't even got around to it yet
-
Sorry i haven't even got around to it yet
I'll make a $1,000 bet you think it's great. & have no reason to think that because I think it's pretty average. But for some "craaaazy" reason, I feel like you'll like it.
-
A lot of male-on-male passion up in this bitch.

some of you act like game fucked your girl or something, i'll listen to it a little later and let you know. I'll check how many flows game jacks. Most artists jack flows anyhow, they just dont switch up their voice like game does so most of you don't notice it. Game's taking flows and trying to shit on his competition in every track lol
-
We got a stage five groupie over here, fellas.

Dont forget the guy thats been jacking off to watch the throne for the last week.

I fucked with his music when he made good music. The Documentary is a personal classic to me. But if you can't hear how much wacker he's got, that's a shame.

haven't downloaded it yet. I'm a fan of good music. If my favorite rapper dropped a shitty album I would still call it shit. And based on the responses to this album I'm guessing it's a mixed bag, just like all the mixtapes he's dropped this year.
What makes you think this album is even going gold without a big single? And you've got to be a groupie to try and say Game is putting Kendrick on. The guy has already dropped an album, is recording for Detox and making an album with J Cole.
-
A lot of male-on-male passion up in this bitch.
awwww chit! LMAO!
-
Game is way too incosistant for me.
There is no quality control on what he puts out and thats probably why he splits opinion . One track he sounds like a beast and then next he is making some shit mainstream track that the mainstream wont even like.

Chamilliatary, you talk a lot of shit for someone who has over 18,000 posts. Can you say obsessed? I've been on this forum for 10 years and I definitely don't remember you when you started, yet you still have more posts than anyone. To live and die in WCC.
I was making a point - and you resort to saying I get "wet" over his album. Your points made sense until you threw that in there, which in my eyes is talking shit. Leave the house once in awhile and maybe you'll expand your music tastes past Chamillionaire (can we say one hit wonder) and Joe Budden (um, another one hit wonder).

Yeah i can agree with that. That's real. It's probably due to him trying to fit in in the mainstream market, so therefor he tries to please everybody (songs for the streets, song for hip-hop heads, club joint, song for ladies etc) and sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.

That's the difference though. You will suck off Game if he put out a lead single with Justin Bieber & Lady Gaga. I can admit that Chamillionaire has put out ass music since his last album.
You're a groupie, I'm open minded.
-
Agree with the op
Its really funny that certain people cleary don't like Game yet they make sure to respond to every thread with his name attached (and if he's name isn't mentioned they make sure to randomly bring him up).
I don't like Rick Ross. So when I'm in the Out of Bounds section and I see "New Rick Ross song" I don't open the thread. If I don't like this artist what's the point in me responding to every thread about him just to further express my dislike for him? Shit is stupid. I don't get why so many forum members act like gossiping girls.
-
^Well, what if they make something good? I don't like Rick Ross either, but Aston Martin Music was dope.
-
^ no it wasn't, Drake's version was but not Ross.
And like I said, if I don't like an artist I just won't listen to em. Makes life easy. So since you responded right away you cleary understand I was talking about you, so care to explain? Why do you sit on here responding to Game topics all day if you dislike dude so much?

Ain't a fan of roberts or glam, but got friends that are, and they say you got to checc it out, even you would like this one. I'm sure others go through that to. and how can you honestly say something is not good if you didn't listen to it? Yell

There's not liking an artist and there's not liking some of the shit they put out. Game has the potential to make good music for me. He just happens to be inconsistent as hell and needs a good beat to sound good. Now a rapper like lil wayne I just avoid because I find his voice and style annoying. I happen to own Game's first album and I like it, doesn't that make me a fan?

no a lot of people on here listen to his (old)music, that's obvious.
he mainly gets shitted on for his actions

:o :o If that's old music, then I must really be getting on haha
2004/2005 to me is considered new Hip Hop.. I guess there are a lot of kids on here who were probably listening to JoJo, Cassie, Kelly Clarkson, Justin Timberlake and Natasha Bedinfield around that time to know anything about Hip Hop
-
never realized there were so many sensitive game groupies on the forum, dude must have marked your childhood lmao

You were? Oh, you're talking about threads like "Born In the Trap" & "The City" songs leaking where I say "This is pretty dope"? Oh, okay lol.
-
What I've noticed that if you're a Game fan, was a fan or just a plain hater EVERYONE expects the absolute best from this guy. Its funny to see haters have high expectations everytime Game drops like it was supposed to be the second coming of Illmatic LOL, ridiculous.
-
It's not only with Game ... (new) posters here are childish while expressing their opinion on music and it gets personal between some members (always the same ones) who follow each other in every thread related to the rappers they like and hate
-
Because this board has become more about shock value and response.

Label people? It's not hard to see when you & GangstaBoogy cry everytime somebody has something negative to say against Game that you're a groupie.
I love people like you who think they're giving it straight with no bias, but in the end Game can do no wrong in your book & the sooner you realize this, the better.
-
Game does plenty wrong - he disses for no reason, is absolutely bi-polar with most of his decisions, name drops consistently, and obsesses over Jay-Z.
I've never denied that outside of his talents in the booth, the dude appears quite unstable mentally. Doesn't take away from his talent.

I'm speaking about this "talent" you talk about. Forget all that off the mic nonsense, that has no relation to music.
Let's get into how he's been recycling words in every verse he's spit since "The Documentary" & how he's below average lyrically & how beats have carried him to this point in his career.
Or how he's basically made a career out of paying homage to actual dope rappers by just saying their name every other bar.
Like I said (don't know if it was here or another thread), if he came out with a single with Lady Gaga & Justin Bieber, you & people here would find a way to explain that it was somehow dope.
People jizzed over a 30 second snippet of "White Soft Porn", like it was going to be his biggest hit & it's not even a solid song. Like I said, on the mic, Game can do no wrong.

There is validity to most of what you say. But the reason I listen to his music is because:
-He pours his heart into many of his tracks, especially the introspective ones. Hasn't really been matched by anyone other than Pac and Budden in this category.
-Despite what you say, I think when he wants to he can be above average lyrically. The cat releases so many damn songs that a lot of becomes dumb downed lyrics, but when he's on his A-game there's not many that can touch him.
-Has a sick flow and delivery - one of the first things that caught my ear with him.
-Can sound good over a traditional westcoast, south, or NY style beat.
-You say he has depended on good production to guide his career, but have you ever thought that maybe he has a good ear for beats? That is a talent in its own, and has held back many other dope rappers that don't have that ear. After him getting kicked off G-Unit, he easily could have slumped without 50 and Dre helping pick his beats. But that obviously didn't happen as Doctor's Advocate had IMO even better production than The Documentary. Not to mention him handpicking producers that other people don't work with as much (1500, Cool & Dre, EP) who have all in time collaborated for some heat with Game.
I wouldn't defend a song with him and Gaga or Bieber if it sucked. If it happened to be a good tune, I'd enjoy it. But if a song sucks, it sucks. For example - Krazy, his failed single, sucked. His Red Room, sans maybe 4 songs, sucked. Ain't No Doubt About it, sucked, and had a Neptunes beat that sounded like it was made in 2001. Purp and Patron had some really good tracks but many throwaways. I will fully admit when his shit is not hot. I am not biased in that regard, or a "groupie" as you would say.

Man I got to admit you be saying some networth shit about game, his aggressive delivery and tone get folks excited but he says the same shit and lil things to gethis fans and stans giddy (great for sales and attention) but that ain't sick lyrics and that's all people be saying to stans, it doesn't mean y'all shouldn't like em as one of your favorites.

All I'm saying is that he isn't a very good rapper at all. He can make a dope song to listen to though when he's rapping about the right thing & not recycling "Aftermath, "Dre", "Chronic", etc. But as far as emmce skill goes, he's got dope vocals & a pretty good delivery, but he's sub-par in subject matter & lyrics.
I also never liked that "good ear for beats" argument. I mean, we don't say "damn, these are dope ass beats" for nothing. We have a good ear for beats too, I guess? Ross gets the same credit. I say the beats are just too good to pass up on. I mean, if I got offered a deal tomorrow & Khalil threw "Ricky" at me, I wouldn't turn it down.

yup, i like that Drummer Boy-type of sound --- "superman-music"
Rick Ross knows the deal

how he's below average lyrically & how beats have carried him to this point in his career.
Game is the original Rick Ross. Just with better delivery.

It is a regular occurrence to come on this forum and see people dissing Game, saying he lost it, he's out of touch, he can't put out good albums without 50, doesn't rep for the West, is fake, blah blah....
But EVERY and I mean EVERY time he releases a project, he dominates this forum like no other - even more so than Snoop and Dre when they have new songs dropping. I just counted on the front page of the forum and there are 13 threads about Game. And funny enough, it seems everyone mostly has positive things to say about the new music he's been dropping.
How about we all realize we have a very talented artist on our hands representing for the West, and while he may have many many questionable decisions when it comes to his personal life, he without a doubt delivers on the musical tip and is consistent as fuck?
I'm all for the New West and the new breed of rappers (particularly Kendrick and Fashawn), but nobody out here is touching Game right now. Stand up for a probable legend in the making. And before the disses come my way - I am by no means dickriding. I'm just stating the facts and how this forum has seemed to operate when it comes to this artist.
Truth....Dudes done a lot for the coast...I mean he gave Glasses, Jay Rock and Kendrick light...when no one knew who the fuck they were. I'm not saying he's responsible for their success...but he played his part and continues to make great music...how can you hate that?? He surprised me with this latest project...more substance than I was expecting...to me that equals growth.

when no one knew who the fuck they were.
Still nobody knows who they are; hence Jay Rock selling 5,000 copies lol.
Don't act like he's done anything for them. Eminem put out a duo album with Royce & it's sold 500K copies. That's exposure. Game won't even let one of his artists get on his album with him. Plus Game sits there & says how he's the king of the West Coast & nobody on the Coast can see him. Which only affects unity on the Coast. How is that positive?
-
^ yes Eminem put out an album with Royce...just 13 years into his career.
Lol @ him not doing anything for the West. Jay Rock, Kendrick Lamar, Dubb, Ya Boy, Clyde Carson, Eastwood, Juice, Glasses Malone can all pretty much vouch that you're full of shit. And even vets like E-40, WC, Snoop, Ice Cube, and Warren G will tell you he came through when they needed a favor.
-
LOL. Take everyone you just mentioned. Ice Cube & Snoop Dogg included. Add up all the sales from their last albums & I think you still don't have an album going platinum.
Take away the vets you mentioned & you honestly don't have more than 15,000 lol.
You think Game does a lot for them because you're on here & you think because you see some random ass leak drop from a random song featuring Game that he is doing them a solid for their careers. When in reality, almost nobody knows who any of those guys are. & Game did absolutely nothing for Kendrick. Kendrick made a dope album, Dre co-signed him a lot, Game likely got jealous & threw him on his album. Yet everybody else he's associated with didn't even get a mention with R.E.D.
Eminem did "Fast Lane" & "Lighters" with Royce & just about anybody who vaguely listens to rap knows who Royce is because of those songs.

Agree with the op
Its really funny that certain people cleary don't like Game yet they make sure to respond to every thread with his name attached (and if he's name isn't mentioned they make sure to randomly bring him up).
I don't like Rick Ross. So when I'm in the Out of Bounds section and I see "New Rick Ross song" I don't open the thread. If I don't like this artist what's the point in me responding to every thread about him just to further express my dislike for him? Shit is stupid. I don't get why so many forum members act like gossiping girls.
real spit...like who puts this much effort into talkin about what/who they hate so much? their life must really suck..
I always thought Game was the definition of a decent rapper...not great, could sometimes be good, sometimes be decent, and sometimes even whack. But even if I thought he was the whackest rapper, I wouldn't spend my time following the people who liked him around to let them know how whack i thought he was. who spends their time focusin so much of their energy on negative shit? that's some lowlife shit, really. sometimes i get into these conspiracy type theories, like what if the angry-at-life posters here are closet fags who take a lot of their inner pain out on the message boards? LOL...would make perfect sense.

am i the only one who enjoys game records the most when he is just spitting gangsta rap cliches and keeping the rhymes simple. i don't really pay too much attention to his lyrics cause he really doesn't have anything very interesting to say. it's all about his flow/delivery and sounding good on the right production. i think it's fair to regard him as an average MC with very good vocals and delivery. this isn't necessarily a bad thing cause he produces a lot of enjoyable music, dropping loads of unreleased tracks and otherwise. i keep reading that dude puts so much heart and emotion into his records etc. dude seems pretty dumb to me, even his deepest insights aren't gonna be particularly inspiring or have any meaningful impact. his best lyric is 'fresh like ugghhhhh' 8)

Honestly though. Think about the logic you've instilled here. Why put effort positive or negative towards anything? Explain to me the difference with your wise age. ;)
How is following somebody around & giving them positive reviews more productive than negative? How does either way give insight to the life you lead outside of your review? You know what it is, people just can't come to terms with reality & don't want to hear the real negative side of things to people they like.
GangstaBoogy is a prime example. Why should he enter every single Game thread giving his opinion when 100 times out of 100 it's going to be pro-Game? Waste of time, no?

here's insight from an elder..
if u direct ur thoughts and energies onto positive shit and try focusing more on things u like (as opposed to dislike), u will have a much happier life...trust me. try it for one week. try focusing ur energies on positive shit for one straight week and tell me it doesn't help u feel better.......that is, unless you're gay(??)
let me break it down for ur feeble mind...gangstaboogy goes into game threads and posts positive stuff because he likes game's music, therefor discussing game's music is something he enjoys doing. since u dont like game, there is no point in u discussing his music just as much as gangstaboogy does. try spending that time ur shitting on game (or whoever it may be) on something that u like. listen to new music u enjoy, dig into old artists u'v never heard but always wanted to get into, do positive shit like that...it will help u enjoy the beauties of life a whole lot more and u will feel a natural growth. unless, again, ur gay. if ur gay and ur just taking out ur frustrations on this message board, carry on.

The problem with this for me is the tenor of Game's voice is too gruff for me to just vibe to like that. I mean, he has a Westcoast flow but an Eastcoast voice imho in that just the sound of his voice would sound best over grimy Eastcoast beats. So, yeah, he could just rap cliches with simple rhyme patterns and whatnot over Westcoast production, but it still wouldn't sound "right" to me. I actually liked Game best when he was with G-Unit and had their production, which imo fit him well relative to the production he has now. (Still not perfect, but better).
Moreover, his problem I think is that he really hasn't lived much of a street life unlike other gangsta rappers before him; he raps what he thinks the street life is all about based on how he has heard gangsta rappers before him describe it -- hence, why he is named "The Game" -- as the human personification of hip hop's gangsta rap traditions. But I think it necessarily comes off sounding inauthentic and corny, as I wrote earlier in the thread. It's a shame because I really had high hopes for him earlier on in his career when he was with G-Unit, but then The Documentary came out and I realized what "The Game" actually meant conceptually; couple that with his increasingly ill-fitting production, and he's less and less on my radar these days.

yeah i get that, his voice is definitely at home over 'darker' production as opposed to the straight west coast stuff. i wouldn't give the g-unit sound a particular coast, at its best its just cinematic, dark and gangsta. it works well for game, but it has to be done right and mainstream production isn't really on that type of vibe now. i think that's why he's sounding more forced and uncomfortable nowadays. the crazy thing is even dre couldn't give him a fitting beat for the album and has possibly his worst feature ever (as in an actual released track - drug test) on there too. i can't believe how bad that track is, it's several notches below 'Kush' and sounds like a bad Timbaland knock-off.

You're wrong NIK, I do like Game. You wasted your time trying to turn that personal. I was simply asking the question, whats the difference between spending effort to give your opinion if it's negative because you don't like it or spending effort to like something regardless? You're spending an equal amount of effort.
Like your music, it sucks. Doesn't take a "hater" to understand that. It requires less effort for me to say "Wow, that's terrible" than it took Brian to write an in-depth, track by track analysis of your little complication. Not to mention, Brian has never said anything negative about your music in his decade career here. That sounds like a low life waste of time.
Speaking of which, you seem to show up in quite a few Lil' B threads, always talking shit about him. Now I'm not calling you a "low life loser" for doing so, but I think you just called yourself one...
I think you can't tell the difference between, blind hate & honest opinion. That's unfortunate.

Game has an "eastcoast-voice"?
i nver knew eastcoast/westcoast-voices had a special/segregated sound to them. slang, defintely. but "voice"?

Well actually when Game came out he was accused of having a east coast flow, whatever the fuck that means.

i guess they mean that his type of voice is more fitting for east-coast type instrumentals. during his get low recordz days he was accused of sounding too much like Shyne.

i guess Snoop Dogg & 2pac are "westcoast-voices" then?
n that squeezky baby-voice style a'la B-Real and Eazy-E,, that shit is west as well..

Dre, Cube and 80% of 90s gangsta rappers disagree with you.

go ahead and give negative opinions, nothin wrong with thta....but my point was that someone who gets obsessed over negativity and goes on rants for pages about shit they dislike must lead a pretty pathetic life.
like i said, theres a huge difference in spending effort in talking about something that interests u and something that doesnt interest u. those who choose to spend their time and energy on a hate tip, such as yourself, come off as small dick havin' bitches who are not happy with life. just letting u know

most of the time its people dropping one negative opinion and then a groupie takes offense and starts an argument about it.
