Cuz niggas on here are stupid! They cry and complain about how the West gets no love but we finally get a new nigga to blow up and get some real mainstream love (not to mention the fact his music is dope) and they all wine about everyting he does. Same niggas thats still waiting for a Warren G album lol. But like you said, most of the features are just hooks: Cube, Keyshia Cole, Raheem Devaughn, Bilal, Lil Wayne. Travis Barkers "appearance" was him playing the drums and DMX just did the Intro / Outro.

I will say this tho, Luda did bury that nigga on his own shit. Which is weird to me cuz he's featured on the worst song on the album.

Better catalog than Snoop? Game got an impressive catalog, no question, but no comparing with Snoop. Snoop's Death Row catalog alone can hold its own with Game at this point in his career.

Game only has two classics himself and between the first two, he didn't have a "Murder Was The Case" soundtrack or "2 Of Amerikka's Most Wanted" or the stuff Snoop did with Dogg Pound, and he sure didn't have the pre-debut jump-off that Snoop did with "Deep Cover" and his work on "The Chronic". It's not a knock on Game but it's easy to overlook Snoop's accomplishments of the previous decade when the context is sort of lost and Game's shit is still fairly fresh on the mind.

Doggystyle >>> Game lol.

but Snoop has also been on some classic Dre shit, Snoop with DPG & 213, but none of that shit matters because your a Game fan right? ::)

your forgetting Ne-Yo who held that whole track down & Ice Cube.

LAX was a poor album overall, but his old shit was DOPE! 8)

Well damn.. No doubt he has some classic shit.. The work on The Chronic, with Dogg Pound and 2 Of Amerikaz Most Wanted is classic no doubt..

@ Chamillitary Click - The shit he did with 213 sucked.. It should have came out classic.. but it sure didnt..

But I if you compare their discographies.. Their solo albums.. I think Game has the stronger one..

And I just cannot understand why you would call LAX a poor album? LAX Files, State Of Emergency, Let Us Live, Dope Boys, Pain, My Life, Money, Cali Sunshine, Never Can Say Goodbye and Letter To The King are all AMAZING joints..

Game ruined "My Life" for me. Could've been a powerful track but he spent all 3 verses name-dropping everybody else. He talked more about Kanye's life than his own.

LAX was alright but Snoop got at least four albums that are better in my opinion. And the 213 album was dope to me. Game is doing his thing no question but he ain't ready for a Snoop comparison.

The documentary was great.doctors advocate was good but lax sucked ass.everything 50 said about game was true.sure he can give you 100 bars but he needs help on song structure and hooks hence why he gets other people to do his hooks the whole album.lax was just a mess of random tracks thrown together.it felt like a compilation of songs instead of an album.at least da felt cohesive.but he's gotten worse with each album if his next one sucks he's lost me as a fan.

GameStarr you shouldn't take any of tha people's word u talked to serious.  They respond to literally EVERY topic and think they know EVERYTHING.  Nobody is dickriding bcuz they like they favorite artist (backing them is justifiable, even if they're delusional) the people on here just complain all day about everything they that's always gonna happen about everything about anything.  Bloggs/Message Boards r filled with dumbass in the closet ass cum recepticals.  LAX was hot, DA was hotter, TD was cool, 91'-99' Snoop was classic, and 00'-09' Snoop still goes hard... those r facts.  we can all have opinions but I live by numbers and the numbers dont lie (whether it's album sales, tv viewers, concerts, publicity/attention via: internet-blogs/radio/tv) not preference on musicianship ability.  Opinions on the internet are really unreliable and half the time ppl r just bullshitting just to get a reaction.  The Game is a class act of his own and ALL of his albums and mixtapes are either good or beast, and same with Snoop.  If they weren't people would NEVER check for them or talk about them... they woulda died out with Jamal I Fades Em All waaaay waay back

Wow this topic went from LAX to who is better Snoop or Game.  ;D

I personally liked LAX. It did have alot of guests but most did hooks. One hooks that Game did on his own and actually had no guests that went on that album was House Of Pain.

King you always make a point to belittle people that like Game's music. True there are alot of stans in here towards Game but that goes for everyone else. I myself am a fan of his music but that ain't the only thing I listen to. So that is a little biased you try and pigeonhole every Game fan in 1 box. You don't like him and I respect that.

Here's how I view Game:

The Documentary reflects a product of the Aftermath camp from the production to the song concepts, their structure, and lyrics.  It was dope.

The Docotor's Advocates reflects a product of material from his last days on Aftermath and his early career on Geffen.   There's some influence from Aftermath producers and song concepts but The Game was forced to pick up the work that never got finished.

LAX reflects Game's first Geffen effort, no Aftermath influence.  We learn Game's got an ear for beats and continues to prove his reign as a supreme vocalists.  Unfortunately, it also reflects Game's weaker qualities - lyrics and song structure.

In summary, Game is an amazing vocalists but needs to focus more of his time on creating lyrics and song structure.  



I like most of Game's music but am often disappointed every time he releases new music.  Mainly due to it being a variation of the same shit of his last effort and not enough growth in areas I find it important such as the lyrical department.  

Sometimes when I discuss Game it comes of as hate because his fans tend to be groupies that think he's heaven sent.  Instead of actually discussing the content they just claim I don't understand or I'm a youngin'.   Great, you've convinced me you know what you're talking about by totally avoiding Game's content and addressing me as a individual.  Right!!! Go you!!!!  Most of Game's groupies fail beyond description.  They make excuses when logic and fact prove otherwise.  Especially when it comes to 50 Cent.  

Other times I express my disappointment with Game because he has such potential unlike so many other artist to have been or still be the next big thing.   People confuse that with hate.  

Finally, I dislike Game because of his lyrical content.  He, while never as bad as Rick Ross, has pretended to be something he never was.  And, it's clear he contradicts himself when he spits truth on one track and then a distorted reality on another.  Did he sell drugs for a little bit?  Yeah but he was a pretty shitty dealer.  He even admits to this in interview but you'll never hear him spit this shit.   But I can overlook this if I think a track is dope.  

I did not like LAX because it felt like more of the same from Game but of lesser quality.  It continues his fucking lies and this pointless act as if he's banging in the streets.  Game has a great life story he could tell instead he'll rap about stupid shit like he did on LAX Files.  By the way Game has more features then TI's Paper Trail or Lil Wayne's Carter III.   Both of those albums are far superior then Game's LAX.   Overall the album feels like a failed attempt to produce his past efforts while branching out.   It just felt corny.  "I put it on my face, call me Starface" What the fuck is he thinking?  Is that supposed to be hard? LAX felt like a big joke save a few tracks.

Do I look forward to hearing Game spit?  Yeah, I do.  I still peep his music.  I'm glad he's riding for the west though I really don't care about coasts.  If it's hot, it's hot.  I don't pretend Game is the best thing since sliced bread.  I don't pretend he's shit either.  

edit:
His last two guest features (Rick Ross's Mafia Music and Busta Rhymes What How You Talk) have been dope.

Games hasn't done shit for himself? Funny because when he first left G-Unit I recall him reaching out to Techniec and Eastwood to form a group. And I recall him bringing guys like Crooked I onto songs with heavyweights such as Ice Cube. Plus he's the one that opened the door for Spider Loc to eventually get his G-Unit deal. And isn't he the one who introduced us to G.Malone and Jay Rock? Did he not give Ya Boy and Clyde Carson a chance to get their music heard by a much bigger audience than they ever had on their own? Pick up "The Doctors Advocate" - I see features from Nate Dogg, Snoop Dogg, Xzibit, Daz, and Kurupt. Or what about him helping out some of the vets like E-40, Jayo Felony, and WC?

Game hasn't done shit for the West? You're outta you're fuckin mind. He's done more for the West in the last 4 years than Snoop has in the last 14.

Those 3 don't need help from Game.

Listen, the fact is, of everything you said, Game has still yet to help ANY WEST COAST ARTIST, reach the mainstream, let alone release a semi-successful album. Look what fucking Snoop did? Eastsiderz? Kokane? DPG? All have careers, all have sold hundreds of thousands of albums. Now if Game is helping the west SOOO much, how come none of these new guys you mentioned even released an album? How come Game, like 50 did for G-Unit, doesn't release these artists under his label? How come Game doesn't feature these guys on his albums? None of these guys like Ya Boy, or Crooked I are close to releasing a major album.

So please kid. Please explain how Game has helped the West? And stop your stupid dick riding. Name all the artists Snoop has helped. Now name all the artists Game has helped. Last time I checked, non of Game's have sold more then 20k copies of anything. So please kid. Stop the bullshit, and stop wasting my fucking time.

People like you with your constant dick riding and bullshit ruin this forum. Game hasn't helped anyone. Period. Not one guy is any better off, or any closer to being successful since Game has been around. Game has had the exact same opportunity 50 Cent did to release, and develop his own artists. Game has failed. And that is a undeniable fact.

So not only does he have to give them the free food but he has to spoon feed it to them? My nigga I'm begging you to say anything that makes sense.

That's a common misconception. Despite the fact that he and Spider were actually close when Spi was on Death Row and Game was exclusively on Aftermath, it was Young Buck who Spider has credited for introducing him to 50. Spider was signed to G-Unit before Game's album even dropped so it wasn't like the success of it planted the seed in 50's head that West Coast artists could sell. In fact, I'm pretty sure Spider had issues with Game over him never mentioning his name as part of G-Unit when he was doing promo for the album. Spider was fucking with G-Unit around the time that Buck's debut dropped. Game was out there but he was in a Bishop Lamont situation where people still weren't sure how his album would fare. He had done mixtapes and guest spots but it was the same "I'll believe it when the album drops" mentality that exists now.

Maybe he could get them a record deal? Like 50 did for countless people. Game on his own can't promote shit. You seem to think having Crooked I in one of Game's videos is a gift from god. He hasn't done shit, for anyone. He has the power, means, and money to promote and bring up artists. Like Snoop did, like Dre did, like 50, Eminem, and the list goes on and on. Game hasn't improved the career of one west coast artist. Their all still going nowhere. And no, that is not all Game's fault, but he hasn't done shit to get them a deal, or even an album. This is the facts.

He hasn't done anything significant to help anyone's career but his own. That's a fact.

Game is an average lyricist, but he's got the best ears for beats in the game and one of the best voices in the Game. All of his three albums are dope because of this. The only problem with LAX was that he chose the wrong tracks for the album. Songs like Camera Phone, Nice, Spanglish, Big Dreams, Superman, 911 Is A Joke and a couple of others are all more than album-worthy, whereas a couple of dubius efforts actually made the album like House Of Pain, Ya Heard and Gentleman's Affair.

He had done mixtapes and guest spots but it was the same "I'll believe it when the album drops" mentality that exists now.

Yeah Spider said that but its Spider lol. Of course he's not going to give Game credit for anything. But Spider and Game were doing a lot of songs together when Game was on Aftermath and into his G-Unit days. I find it hard to believe that Spider and Game were working together but some how Young Buck brought him into the camp.

So not only does he have to give them the free food but he has to spoon feed it to them?

Maybe he could get them a record deal? Like 50 did for countless people. Game on his own can't promote shit. You seem to think having Crooked I in one of Game's videos is a gift from god. He hasn't done shit, for anyone. He has the power, means, and money to promote and bring up artists. Like Snoop did, like Dre did, like 50, Eminem, and the list goes on and on. Game hasn't improved the career of one west coast artist. Their all still going nowhere. And no, that is not all Game's fault, but he hasn't done shit to get them a deal, or even an album. This is the facts.

He hasn't done anything significant to help anyone's career but his own. That's a fact.


By countless people you mean Lloyd Banks, Tony Yayo, Young Buck, and Mobb Deep? Thats the only artist 50 has released so I dont see where you're getting countless from. If you hate Game hater just say so man. You're ridiculous attempts at proving a point to me are getting more pathetic by the post.

LAX sucked balls... the bad way! I got tired of the album after a couple of spins so I gave the album to neighbor's kids and they obliterated it with firecrackers.

Wow...I will say that everyone is really passionate about this post..I'm going to assume that since this is a west coast forum that 90% are west coast hip hop fans and i guess I just can't understand why both Snoop and Game can't be respected for what they both have accomplished...Part of the problem is that both did their best work on their first projects (under Dre and don't forget 50's work with Game)...I don't think either has been as good as the first releases but both have since put out dope music.  THe WC should be proud of both but I don't think it's fair to compare the two cause SNoop has  been at it so much longer and we need to understand that dude is on the downside if his career as a rapper..It's ok cause THe Doggfather has done his damn thing...Game's heart has been in the right place as far as helping other WC artists but he would have benefitted by listening to Dre (about the 50 beef) and he would have still been on Aftermath and i think it would have been easier for him to put out music from his other artists.  Overall I just think Snoops biggest problem right now is that he has nothing else to rap about and GAme's problem more than anything is  his head...Dude just seems kind of crazy sometimes always going back and forth with shit like the 50 beef and is he going to diss Dre, is he retiring, is he really dissing Jay-Z...Game needs to get a grip but he is a talented artist..

If you hate Game hater just say so man. You're ridiculous attempts at proving a point to me are getting more pathetic by the post.

My point has been proven. You named 5 artists who 50 Cent got record deals, and albums released. Now name 1 artist Game has gotten EVEN a FRACTION close to the success of any of those 5. Listen, you have no point to make. Not to mention he executive produced Lil Scrappy's and LL Cool J's albums. What album has Game executive produced? None. Who has he actually helped get a deal? None. Who has he actually spent time with working on their album?  None. He hasn't done shit.

Game has not helped the west. None of his artists have succeeded. That is a fact. If you had any intelligence at all, you would realize this. I don't have to prove anything, it's simple facts. You just need to open your eyes to the truth, instead of being one of those mindless Game groupies.

I can't stand this. Get a fucking education and learn to read. It's simple, simple, straight forward logic. What artist has Game actually helped SIGNIFICANTLY to progress their career? NONE.

Yeah Spider said that but its Spider lol. Of course he's not going to give Game credit for anything. But Spider and Game were doing a lot of songs together when Game was on Aftermath and into his G-Unit days. I find it hard to believe that Spider and Game were working together but some how Young Buck brought him into the camp.
Why wouldn't he? He acknowledged the fact that they had a cool relationship before G-Unit which he didn't have to. The story has been co-signed by enough people including Spider himself and Buck that it doesn't make sense for it not to be the case. Further more, why hasn't Game tried to take credit for it? It's one thing if it's two different people telling two different stories but the only story I've ever heard about Spider joining G-Unit was him freestyling for Fif at some video shoot for Young Buck and getting signed off the strength of that. Maybe Game was responsible in some way but then again, maybe Dre was responsible or Snoop or Suge or Nate Dogg. Maybe Lloyd Banks was. To assume Game helped open the door because they knew each other before is essentially giving the man credit for something nobody but you has ever acknowledged him doing. From my perspective, I did not see some major collaborative stuff between them when they were on G-Unit together. They had a few mixtape songs together and were probably in a few photo snaps but Spider was clearly not in his crew. He rolled with Buck quite a bit and appeared to be tight with him the most out of G-Unit.

I like Game as an artist but in order to credit him as bringing the West back or being its savior, I need to see proof that he's done these things. This isn't some disrespectful way of talking about him because he absolutetly showed that a rapper from the West can sell big but that isn't the same. Give the man his props but don't get carried away.

games usin them and their fanbase to keep his name out
and what scipio did (to ras kass and xzibit) by ridin wit game and not givin ras kass the credit he deserves was a bad move, considerin ras kass made scipio who he is and will ever be
but money can and does change things and people

who said thats y they do tracks wit game...? and u said he use their fan base...im sorry that makes no sense 2 me seeing as how game has a much wider audience therefore the up and coming artist would benefit off of games fanbase...jus like jay rock and nipsey are now...and unless game is secretly an exec @ warner bros. or universal...than idk how game could put their album out...lol how do u guys come up with this shit...seriously...
