Can't believe this is ACTUALLY finally getting a release. Maybe there's even hope for Detox yet?? Nah, just kidding.
Anyway, watch a lot of cats complaining about all the hot mixtape tracks like "Lost", "The Kill", "I'm The King", etc. etc. not making the album instead of some of the weaker tracks that are bound to be on R.E.D. somewhere. It still should be good. Game never disappoints when it comes to albums.

My god... Good girls go bad is so fucking crazy.. the city is dope as fuck good bad and ugly so many good tracks. and it looks like drug test got some treatment too ? anyways this album is FAR from classic, but this definitely a solid album a dope concepts and pretty good combinations and beat selections.not what i would call a classic but a good album! hats off to game on this effort

How can you even judge an album from snippets like that? I listened to the snippets, but I'm withholding any judgment until I've heard the album properly.

Only listened to part of the city and the intro from Dre. I like the concept, i feel like this will be better than jay z and kanye's album. Drug test sounds way better. I don't want to spoil the album though by listening to these samples i'm copping it the 23rd and trying to refrain from the leaks. I never had a doubt that RED wouldn't get a release date. Hate it or love it he' still buzzing and he did himself a favor by all the mixtapes keeping him relevent... they were just waiting on the timing, Game was frustrated with the push backs but i think it did him good. He said he would try and get the 5th one out alot sooner than this one.
Props to Game for his 4th Major LP release, not many artists get to 4 on a major these days. Despite the hate he's doing something right obviously.

yeah i don't think the song are going to change after the first 40 seconds and turn wack suddenly
-
how about all you critics and bloggers refrain from commenting on the album and just say it's good and watch all tha youngins and older heads who couldnt give a fuck about Rap (let alone Game) call it classic.
-
damn game started going in on The City
can't wait for this to drop
-
Hard to judge from the snippets as usual, but the Premo cut sounds good, how I hoped it would sound. "The Good, The Bad, The Ugly" is nice too. Khalil's "Ricky" sounds amazing too, too bad this ended right before the beat kicked in.
-
Shit sounds hot!
-
Sounds good ... should leak soon

yeah lost, monsters in my head, rough, the kill, RIP story, LA times & history should have been on there.

We haven't heard the album yet. Besides, I'm pretty sure "Monsters In My Head" and "Rough" were meant for the album but Koolo leaked them and fucked that up
-
Where's all the bass gone from Dre's voice? Sound more like Game doing an impression.

this album is smooooking hot, goes hard all the way

after listening to the snippets, i am not dying to hear the album. but i'll give it a listen when it comes out.
-
Tracks are hot , Beats are bangin, i have a feel about the snipes that this Album is near a Classic better than L.A.X back to the Documentary or Doctor's Advocate Quality
Detox - The R.E.D Album
-
Disappointing guest artists for the most part. Thanks for keeping it West. im totally turned off by most of these features.
-
shit sounds way better than i thought it would..ima cop it...funny thing is...here in canada on our 2 main store sites for music, they only advertise the 2 disc deluxe edition..which has no tracklist yet...
-
All I Know thru Mama Knows sounds like a good stretch, but overall this sounds pretty bland to me. The usual contemporary synthetic production stylings, gays on hooks, etc. LAX part 2. I'll be taking the good cuts off this and blending them with the good cuts off LAX to make a good album.
-
The album has a dark sound to it which I have no problem with, doesn't sound that great though. Hopefully the full version changes my mind.
-
Ok, haven't heard anything but the city, sounded like something off section 80. However thanks for keeping it west? with sarcasm? dude pulled off more than i thought he would with kendrick, tyler, dre, snoop and E-40
This is going to be kendrick lamar appearing on his first major LP. That's big for him, i knew game recorded with him but thought he would be left off just because thats how it usually goes with game not letting the new young hot artists get on. But we got kendrick and tyler on there. Tyler has a nice fan base already and all the other features are still big artists but come on. With a label that forces you to do certain shit thats not that bad.
People saying LAX pt. 2 i doubt it. I'm thinking more doctors advocate. He spent a good amount of time on this, he's even got fans/50 groupies on "this is 50" going nuts over the snippets. LAX didn't have too much direction this project seems nice with the whole narration/movie type feel. Should be his best since The Documentary IMO.
-
^^^^ No way this gonna be better than the Doc Advocate ... you can tell from the snippets the overall production won't come close to the DA one ... plus we haven't heard all these wack features yet ....
-
There are 2 or 3 Tracks with wack features the rest are high quality production .The Album is in a good direction from Dre and the Aftermath, Game is not in a wrong way with this

well some snippets don't sound good. besides, we've heard some songs in full already.
also, the leaking argument is bullshit, look at dre's single featuring eminem

thats a single, and was always dre's single. Game's records that leaked were not singles, maybbeee monsters in my head but i doubt it. Nobody wants to get an album with tracks that leaked 3-4 months prior if they're not singles no matter how good the track is
-
Not the Production but Dre is overseeing the hole Album ,Game said it in an Interview
-
"The City" sounded ill. The rest didn't sound great. But I'll give it a shot.
-

^that's a lie....lol he's narrator to the album, game switches up in every interview saying Dre and pharrell are exec. producers and doesnt mentions mars. Then other times he'll just say mars and pharrell then sometimes its just pharrell. Mars is exec. producing thats forsure. Dre may have heard alot of the album gave some input but if he can't do something as simple as mixing the one song he produced for the album then dre has no involvement other than talking on 4 records and rapping on drug test
-

That's not saying much, though. Not that there's a large sample size to begin with, but the last album Dre oversaw that I felt had that Dre touch was The Big Bang (flawed as it is, it still had that Dre touch) ... but that came out, what, five years ago? That's a lifetime in hip hop. I really don't see Dre's oversight of a project to be as big a factor anymore as it used to be.
-
drug test sounds the same as the leak just slightly better mixed. thought dre might make sure he appeared on a monster beat. weak.
definitely sounds like LAX pt. 2 from the snippets, not as good as his first two albums. premo tune does sound fire tho, unsurprisingly. thought that combo should be dope.
-
why he put drug test on the album?weak track in my opinion!1.nice production by khalil but nothing special 2. the snoop part is too short!3.feat. Dr Dre, What is happening?this was supposed a detox track?come on!!!!!!
-
I don't follow game too much so the name im thinking might be wrong but didn't he claim he had a track with dre called dead people?
-

Dre didnt mix it in time for some reason...prolly want it on detox or somthin.
-
Shit sounds real dope.
-
damn im amped up for this album. could possibly be contender for Album of the year, yea i know its only snippets but damn it sounds good. is there enough promo for this album? hows the single doing on the radio/video?
-
where the hell is Dead People?
-

video is doing well on BET and i was reading a magazine that had pot of fold #72 in the hot 100 so just decent radio play
-
So what's the final tracklist?
-
Sounded like too many southern beats. Need to hear the whole album though.
-

exactly, at least for the West Coast anyway (the ENTIRE West coast). i honestly wasn't expecting Game to drop heat like this, i thought he was going to go soft after i heard that mixtape before "Candy Coronas" and "Candy Coronas". "Red Nation" was weak and "Drug Test" was underwhelming but after hearing those snippets and seeing the video for "Pot Of Gold" on SuckerFree tha homie made me do a 180, atleast a 175 lol.
Props to Game, he sounds like he's still got it a little better than he's been the last few years. And "LAX" wasn't as bad as everybody makes it out to be, sure "The Doctor's Advocate" was that shit but I wouldn't say "LAX" was lame.
-
LAX was good no doubt, had some bangers. Lacked some direction though and concepts. This however seems to have a lot of concepts on it. So i'm looking forward to it, had to peep matians vs goblins and that sounded like a monster! 8) nice concept. Only listened to the city and that as of now. Want to see if i can wait till the 23rd but we'll see what happens when it leaks i may have to peep it. I just dont want to know what i'm getting into before the whole thing drops already.
-
NO WAY u can judge album from this good or bad......just like a movie preview or a bookcover. But i know itll be dope. If it lives up to the Hype is another thing

Of course you can. This is like than romantic comedy that they jack up with popular celebrities, so you say to yourself, "Oh man, she's in it? Oh he's in it? I'll check it". But you know going in there aren't any really classic romantic comedies.
The expectations for this isn't some summer blockbuster, "Inception/Dark Knight" shit. It's suppose to be average at best & by the "preview", it looks like it might not live up to that.
-
So Far I like what I hear
-
17 tracks (minus Dre intro/outro and interludes)........this should have been 12 tracks tops. Second half of the album is much better than the first. DJ Premier collabo is getting released, that's a big plus! No Dre beats present, maybe gonna be iTunes bonus tracks?
The Documentary is still his Doggystyle. Doctors Advocate was a good follow up (but much better than what Doggfather was to Doggystyle). L.A.X. has very solid tracks but more filler than D.A. Not sure where this one will stand when it's all said and done. If the rumored move to YMCMB happens then I can see Game's debut on that label being a renaissance of sorts.

Man this guy tryin hard to be dre with his bud leaf on the cd lol

damn man whens this shit gonna leak

someone from another forum said that dre and pharrell left the project cause they where pissed off of game's poor quality music he was recording
-

Thats reaching. Dre was never an executive producer and Game never claimed he was. Just that he recorded new music with him. They made 4 or 5 tracks together and we already heard 3 of them and the fourth one meant for R.E.D. wasnt finished in time to make the project. Pharell had like 9 or 10 tracks with Game and we already heard most of those too. Leaving the project is stupid terminology and the dude that said that is ignorant. Game, Mars & Pharell are credited with executive producing the album. Executive producing it doesnt mean every track is produced by them EPs are in charge of the direction of the album. Overseeing everything.
-
Nah Game did (lie) and claim dre was a coexecutive producer. Maybe dre did tell him that but I doubt it, sounds like usual game taking and inch and claiming a mile.
But pharell quitting cuz of the quality of music? Nah no way. If anything Game got smart and started listening to the horrible feedback he got on his work with the neptunes including the epic failure that is "aint no doubt about it". That and the fact that him and 1500 or nuthin cook crack together
-
someone from another forum said that dre and pharrell left the project cause they where pissed off of game's poor quality music he was recording
i don't think dre would have 4 interludes and one guest verse on an album he didn't like. dre is picky but he doesn't throw his name on crappy work to promote that work. he throws his name on work HE likes to give that person a favor in the form of promotion.
and i actually heard something else.... some people on twitter who seemed to know what they were talking about (i know, lolllllll), said that dead people was removed from R.E.D. because a) its not mixed b) its getting an eminem verse added and c) its going to be on detox as of right now.
we are dreaming is also being considered for detox, and also we can probably safely assume it was never finished.
"dope" by game and dre, is also being considered for detox i believe. these people weren't being totally clear about these two tracks so i really don't know, but they sounded more confident dead people is going to detox.
game leaked probably like 5 of the tracks he did with pharrell. i liked all of them except the one with JT. the internets seemed to like none of them. pharrell is a busy man and he doesn't have time to sit around until RED album was done. he probably gave game 7 beats and that was really it. he has a lot of projects on his plate.
1500 or nothing on the other hand, they are up and coming, hungry, and trying to make a name for themselves. since game is the biggest artist they work with regularly (except lupe, who they toured with), they had the time and patience to give like 200 beats and sit with him until the album was done. that's probably what happened.
-
it seem ike game got zero buzz 4 this album.hope he still sell tho
-
oh this album sound like it gonna be the best album 2 drop in 2011 thus far & im not a fan of game like that.but i give credit when credit is deserved.snippets sound hot.im a cop it
-
where all the haters at saying Game would get shelved? Looks like he's going to have a banger
i wasn't hating, i figured interscope wanted Detox to drop first.
-
i know its just samples but in all honesty this album don't sound that great for all the hype thats been put on it. i think game dropped better tracks on those mixtapes. game usually picks hard hitting beats but this album sounds weak on the production side. the best tracks on the album sounds like its the city, ricky, good bad and the ugly,California Dream & born in the trap. this albums sounds like its a tie with LAX as game's 3rd best album. no way near the documentary. someone already said this but if he took a couple tracks of LAX and a couple tracks off this album then put them together he might have a classic album. the problem with game is he tries to fit in with whats hot so he has half an album thats banging and the other half he's trying to follow that drake, big sean, wiz sound because thats whats hot now.
-

Haven't heard the snippets or whatever but this has been my problem with Game ever since 2008. It's probably due to him losing more and more popularity as time goes. I mean i think it's hard for him and artists like him to do strictly gangsta music or real hip-hop shit in a time were any gimmick or floss/club music gets spins and play. I just think he has a hard time fitting in so therefor he tries to balance it and sometimes it doesn't work that well (ie LAX). But this is a problem alot of artists go through, especially on the West.
