I've never been a "fan" of Game and i must admit that i wasn't impressed with Jay Rock when i've heard his first songs, but now i'm enjoing more Jay Rock's Follow Me Home more than any other Game album (i know it's not difficult because Game's discography is pretty average).
I got the impression that Jay Rock will replace the Game soon as the new face of the west.

i'm just talking about the "new school" rappers

ok, there are a lot of too. ;)

Again you are not passing game with out displaying a charging then life persona, getting the women behind you, and having euro's buy like 10 of your albums on your release date. I like rocc more but got to keep it networth yell
-
no

No. Jay Rock is one dimensional - always rapping about the gang banging shit. That is going to continue to hold him back. It's the reason Kendrick surpassed him in terms of following/popularity very quickly.

Not that I disagree with Game being better than Jay Rock, but do you see the irony in what you just said?
-
Nah, i like Game way more than Jay Rock. Hopefully Kendrick will be the next successful rapper from the West Coast, he deserves it.

By definition to be "the new face of the west" jay rock will have to be: a) on a major label b) actually selling some records while on that label. Jay Rock will never accomplish either of these things.

Kendrick Lamar is a lyricist compared to most of the rappers from the west coast, he just need to not work with dre to be successful.
Game is boring as hell compared to Jay rock imho..

The irony being that you think Game only raps about the gang banging shit as well? Not true at all - he's a story teller and has an old school flow. He raps about many different topics and can easily jump on a song with any emcee at the game and would blend in with their style. The same cannot be said for Jay Rock.

jay rock is dope but he isnt better than game

Jay Rock's lyrics aren't limited to Eazy-E, 2Pac, Dr. Dre, being from Compton, gang-banging, bitches, chevy-64's and being a blood. Therefore (IMO) he is better.
-
hell nah...and its been proven once again in the past month...just the snippets to the red album >>>>> follow me home as a whole..
-
i was surprised with jay rock's album. wasn't expecting anything and overall it's a consistent album and jay rock impressed me on the mic on certain songs. however, i do think Game's better as of today and is way more entertaining
-
u guys slay me sometimes....lmao

Funny. Some arguments worked both sides, depending on point of view (eg. Game is boring (imo Jay Rock is boring), Jay rock talks only about gang banging etc. (Game does that all the time).. i hope it will give the good look on whats the point of this topic.

game,thanks to jimmy iovine,can afford the best producers. it's the only difference between him and jay rock.
-
I like em both & to tell you the truth I dont know who I like more.

Same here. I don't see the need to choose. I support both of them and Kendrick and a host of other artists as well from the west.
-
Yes.
-
Jay rock is way better than game, Jay Rock aint as diverse as Kendrick but his music has content and social commetary, when has game ever made a song like just like me? ???
And ppl on this board dont get madd at what I said its only my opinion, but take away production from g-unit/aftermath/interscope and what has game done? Any other of these new west rappers from crooked i, black hippy, g malone, nipsey, ya boy,2eleven, roccett even mitchy slick could have had a big album with that kinda of backing at that time. That was the biggest label at the time. Now Jay Rock will ever get that backing i doubt it, but if ur talkin lyrical ability or making songs, for me its Jay Rock all the way.

you own lax and think documentary is ass. Self ether?
-
No. Used to listen to Jay Rock quite a bit but he just started to get borin to me and i stoped checkin out his music, i voice annoys me and he hardly ever changes up his flow.
-
Game is dope as fuck...Jay Rock is dope as fuck... I gotta go with Follow Me Home over RED. Really dissapointed at Game's new album it has no G Shit to it no West Coast vibe. Jay Rock dropped the better album but thats just my opinion...WEST WEST

DA is his best by far, just never got around to buying it...and yeah lax over boring ass documentary..how we do is the wackest shit..(then again i havent given it a good listen since 2006..maybe my opinion would change now)
it all comes down to preferences...i mean, you got cats on here who listen to katy perry, rhianna, lady gaga etc..
-
he's not better than game right now but he did put out a better album than game did. if jay rock had the people around him that game had early in his career like 50, eminem and getting to work with a dre full time right after he dropped the chronic he would be better than game right now.. game's metal problems is whats fucking up his ability to be a great rapper.
-
I like the Jay Rock album, thought it was pretty dope. At times I thought he sounded a lot like Young Buck (not a bad thing)
Wouldnt say one is better than the other, both artists are dope, altho Rock has a ways to go in terms of having the success Game has had.
-
i dig jay rock style more to be honest. he's like more mature and shit bout his...
-
of course Jay Rock is better than Game
-
I dont think Jay Rock is better. Hes monotone, Same like Glasses Malone. They have the same damn monotone flows on every track they do. They are cool but they arent polished. Game is far superior an MC than any of these fools.
