Don't think this has been posted yet, it's a piece in the Village Voice about Game's album and singles tried so far, interesting read -

That article is fail. Red Nation, It Must Be Me and Krazy were first singles... and putting in some mixtape tracks
-
I think it more goes to show what a joke Game is making himself look. First singles or not, it highlights how poor the tracks are - all 10.
-
what about 'Shake'? even more pseudo-singles than those ones and 'White Soft Porn' was not a single at all. 'It Must Be Me' is one of the better ones, i still think it's nice for what it was.

This blog that this dude wrote is completely inaccurate. "White Soft Porn" "Slanging Rocks" "Pushin It" & "Im the King" were never Album singles. Never once were they promoted as album singles. WSP was a 2009 track with one verse on it. Game trashed it, but because everyone kept talking about it he went in and completed the song to be on the hangover tape. "Slangin Rocks" was the Red Room track that leaked to promote the tape right before it dropped. "Pushin It" was never claimed to be an album single either, Game put it out and the song got a little attention so he continued to promote the song itself but never claimed it would be on RED. "Im The King" was the single to the Purp & Patron tape not RED. Half of this guys list is backwards. I can understand giving your opinion, everyone is entitled to have their own but if your going to give it try to make it accurate and if your going to put that much effort into a Game bashing then you might want to take your time and actually research the failed singles. "Big Money"/"Krazy"/"It Must Be Me"/"Aint No Doubt About It" were four failed singles to the album. As far as "Bottles & Rockin Js" Game said that it might be the next single, he wasnt sure yet. So he released the song to see how it would do. It didnt impress so he went with "Pot Of Gold" instead. I doubt you'll even see "Bottles & Rockin Js" on the album. "Red Nation" isnt a failed single either, the song may not have done well on the charts but it fucking CHARTED regardless which isnt a fail in my book. "Pot of Gold" is barely starting to get promoted, we may have had the track for a couple of months now but thats us here on the hip hop forums, its only been promoted worldwide for a week. Cant call it a fail when it hasnt even started yet. If your going to wirte blogs and make an attempt at being an amatuer journalist you might want to put some effort into it.

I'd say about 4-5 of those were failed singles (that's bad) but the rest are just random songs that were never singles at all

Now you're just contradicting yourself because you were the one who brought up money. You stated "Game still got moe $$ than yo HATEN ass.. So u tell me who is the joke and who is #WINNEN!!"
And of course someone can say his music is a joke just like someone can say his music is classic. There is nothing wrong with giving an opinion.

the writer went overboard but the bottom line is that everything Game has put out of late has been mediocre and not really had mass appeal, doesn't bode well for the album

He had bangers on his last mixtape, I don't see how people forget things so quickly...
"I Just Wanna Fuck", "L.A. Times", "Taylor Made", "The Kill", "History" and "The Ocean" were all dope, plenty of other tracks on their I still play, and I went off Game for a long ass time before that mixtape dropped.
-
Its sad that listening to all of them tunes they are all actually decent.
-
This list is a bullshit compilation to make game look bad. Some of those songs were not only not singles but not even meant to be on the album.
-
and you could apply this to more artists: J. Cole, Jeezy, 50 Cent...
-
I still think It Must Be Me and Red Nation were dope. Krazy, Big Money and Aint NoDoubt About It wasnt really feelin them tho.
-
All of the singles from the album have been real bad. I hope none of them will make the final version of the album.

what have you expected? several years of brainwashing. telling these kids record sales make you an artist and stuff like that.... they bring up money because they were thaught the more you sell the better mc you are. money is the main factor in creating their music taste. sad but true..... that's why so many people in here bring up record sales whenever they want to insult an artis. brainwash....

Game doesn't need any help to make himself look bad. He's done that himself with the multiple wack singles and bi polar interviews
-
did anybody see those comments from game's groupies ? this is my favorite :D ur a dumb cunt 5 of these are off mixtapes and were never intended to be singles... retard...RED Album will be album of the year... hopefully you'll be hanging from the ceilling in that basement of yours on august 24th ;D i know this was written by one of you euro kids on here.

yeah your right the mixtape did have some bangers I'm not gonna lie
Overall though I thought it was maybe half dope tracks and half average ones
-
I've only listened to Red Nation for the second time and I gotta say that song is pretty dope. Too bad the video got banned. The rest of those songs, regardless of quality are pathetic attempts at making a commercial single. Game's a decent rapper, but is a shitty song writer.

^^^^ should mc ren get the blame for sales being the end all?
"been rapping since the 70's and still never went gold"
This was reiterated by wsc on the hook of slaughterhouse, and also pac saying it's the reason we would be yelling checkmate! So don't blame outside forces on this one, all this did was give them a blueprint to "trim the fat and rely on the "hits" stephen hill.
West coast fans ate the shit up and played our selves. We should of said it's cool alot of folks is buying the
music but it's all about our quality being the best right now, not no fuccing record sales. Fans co signed the bull shit tho, and now don't want to be judged by it now, to late. Moral of the story never do shit that's gonna benefit corp amer more then the culture.
And if you a true game fan keep fuccing with him regardless if his singles ain't up to par, cause you know you gonna like some songs off the cd in the end yell

Yeah there were a few average tracks, let's just hope the quality control is there for the album
