It should be obvious by now he likes to use different flows and vocal styles.  I can think of at least 4 off the dome.

Hurting who? Its not hurting him, Hes already filthy rich. I think hes at the point in his career where he does what he feels is cool. Its not when he debuted and had pressure to sell a lot of records. Now he just makes the music that makes him happy. I respect that, hes not the only rapper that did that. Snoop did it.

Forreal he sounds like what Shyne is trying to do, completely uncalled for. In fact, he sounds exactly like the "new" Shyne in a few of those. I'm half way through, and although a lotta this shit is just cuts from RED/LAX/DA its pretty good, beats, features, lyrics, themes, everything besides this retarded ass wannabe Ross flow.

Because Ross sells more than he does now   :laugh: He should realise that he is at his best when he is just bein him not his versions of other rappers... doin that shit (imitating)  is better left to those who are only famous on Myspace not mainstream rappers!

Because he's unoriginal.

Just look of the title of his upcoming album "The Red Album"; didn't some kid from Brooklyn use a color as the name of an album back in '03?

So Jay-Z invented "color" albums huh?

Lets go back to 1987 - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Black_Album_(Prince_album)

or how about a lil further...

Lets go back to 1968 - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Beatles_(album)

Dumb muthafucka.

^I'm just re-reading what I wrote to see if there was a typo & after six or seven reads I fail to see where I said "Jay-Z invented a color album".

He did his version in the Rap game though, it's been done.

& don't front like Game isn't directly related to Jay-Z; basically naming the album this IN SPITE of Sean Carter.

Where did I say that Jay-Z was original?

One of my favorite songs from him is sampled from one of my favorite Western movies. :laugh:

Bottom line, none of that changes the fact Game is BEYOND far from original; from jacking flows to naming albums.

Cham, I always thought you were pretty balanced when it came to Game but it's pretty obvious you just don't like duke and the music he create.  Best just let it go and stop peeping him.

Black isn't a color. If you're going to be so anal (no homo) about your posts, at least get it right.

I love his older music, I still bump songs off his two albums from time to time.

Even a few off LAX.

& I don't bump them anymore, but 2-3 songs off Red Room are dope & 2-3 songs off Break Lights is dope.

Only a stan (not calling you one, so don't go there) would allow his recent music to pass off as good in comparison to his older music; Break Lights was majority leftovers for a good reason, they weren't good enough for the album.

& if what you just said came from my thoughts on the name The Red Album, I've been saying that about his choice of album name. It's without a doubt in my mind JUST because of Jay-Z; he came up with the name while he was busy calling him out & making diss tracks.

If they make a crayon for it then its a color. Speaking of crayons, go get a white one and color a fuckin zebra.

Oops, I got that from Eminem, I'm so un-original.

I'm cool with him switchin' flows up but I've always had a problem with him swithchin' up his voice.
The greats stand out because of their own identification.  He should be wanting niggas copying him, not
the other way around.

I dont really care who he's copying or for whatever reason, but to tell it like it is, I think it sounds like shit. He sounded a little like this back in '03/'04 but obviously he evolved outta that for the better. That being said, this still not that similar to how he flowed back then. Now it's sounding forced, unneccesary and just plain ridiculous that a rapper of Game's calibur thinks thats the type of flow people wanna hear.

While I agree an MC should have their unique vocal style and semi-trademark delivery.  I also think MORE should learn to switch up their vocals and their styles because it's their choice instrument.
