I too believe that people now days throw the word "classic" around far too much and far too early. However, i believe games new cd is a westcoast classic as well as a hip hop classic. Game spits with so much emotion, has became a better rapper, and made an album FOR THE WESTCOAST!! Though dre is missing from the album, hi tek, jr, khalil and scott storch did the majority and these guys are all aftermath/dre product.
This album surpasses the documentary easily, with the only complaint on this album being the over usage of Dres name....on songs like "da shit", "scream on em" and "one night" where he spits real and goes hard he is showing that he is on top of the game. November 14, 2006 is almost as big of a day for the westcoast as November 16, 1999. Game-you did it man.

I realize it's opinions, but...you're full of shit.
-
its a good album but i think some of ur comments are going a little too far lol. definately not a classic.
-
Game's my favorite rapper but I don't even know if i'd consider it a classic but I haven't listened to it enough to decide
-
album isnt even one of the best 3 or 4 albums of the year, nowhere near a classic IMO
-
man couldnt u say this on another Game Thread?
-
I think its a classic too. Everybody always finds a reason to hate an album. Even the classics had something that you probably didnt like.
I dont care what anyone says. Im not going to wait for somebody else to tell me whats classic and whats not.
I havent heard an album like this in a long time. It gots all types of tracks. From the westcoast tracks to the more slow tracks. Even the weakest songs on the album are above average.
I would give it a classic or maybe a 4.5 rating.

co-sign, documentary was a good album, but he didnt blow me away with Doctor's Advocate like he did with the documentary.
-
no hate but u can label an album a classic even before its out in stores...u gotta give it atleast one yr before u can call it a classic...if u still think its this good a ye frm now, maybe its a classic
peace

i agree its not a classic, but i think its the best album of the year. what albums you like better than this one...One of them is Jim, right?
-
all game gotta do is step his lyrics up...he already has a good ear for beats...if he could do that then he might be able to make a classic...
-
Dope ass album, Game is quite redundant at times (and this is coming from a fan)......his flow and voice are dope though, except when he tries to sound like Dre too much. BUt i gotta agree with LaZ1e, Game obviously has a great ear for beats, he just needs some original lyrics........i believe dude has the ability to make a classic, but he needs to really switch some shit up to do so.
Really, the fucking cd ain't even out yet, how is this a classic? It has had ZERO impact, which is something all classics have to have. Also, the singles have been weak and i don't really see any singles blowing up off of this...........
But all in all, definitely one of the best of the year......very consistent, not much filler(track with Jamie Foxx and Scream on Em are kinda weak)..........but classic??? NO way. Its missing one or two songs that really make an impact or a mark on hiphop. Name one classic cd without a classic single?????
-
Name one classic cd without a classic single?????
too short albums 1-10. or atleast they never made an impact on the radio. ;)
-
this album has blown me away more than doccumentary did.
definately one of the better albums out this yr, may or may not become a classic time will tell

Havnt heard Game's album enough to rank it yet but so far it aint all that imo. Here are some of my fav albums of the year in no order
Busta Rhymes : The Big Bang
40 Cal : Broken Safety
Birdman/Lil Wayne : Like Father Like Son
Jim Jones : P.O.M.E
J.R. Writer : History In The Making
Ice Cube : Laugh Now Cry Later
Daz : So So Gangsta
Cam'Ron : Killa Season
Killa Tay, C-Bo : Moment Of Truth

documentary is a better album, and thats not a classic...
-
How are any of the songs classic material? Not all of the production is good enough for a classic, so if this isn't good then the rapping has to be top notch which it isn't. Classic rapping is jay z at his prime, nas at his prime, tupac, biggie, rakim ... not game. Yer i'm probs gonna cop the album but this is not classic stuff as it hasn't pushed the boundaries or anything. It's just a consistent album with good production which for some reason most rappers can't seem to do at the moment.

Lol at this whole thread
-
1) Don't throw away the "classic" word
2) Time tells if an album is classic or not
3) This a solid album by today standards but not classic, plus there hasn't been no classic in hip hop for at least 6-7 years
-
there will never be a univerally accepted classic ever again, people hate too much these days
they want music like in the early 90's, you give em remedy and they still hate

No.

Co-Sign!! I'm no dickrider but westcoast fans live to much in the 90's era, and thats the real truth sadly..
-
There aren't that many albums pushing boundaries though, I mean College Dropout I would say is a classic hip hop album as it pushes boundaries. I thought Lupe's new album had the potential to be a classic album because he brought a new technique to rapping. We just need people that push the boundaries, and not follow a set formula.

i think its too early to call it a classic, give it 5 years and see if ypu are still listening to it the whole way through.

what's 1-3 then. I give you Ice Cube's album, but every album pass that is shit. I think Game's album will be better than Busta's.
