word, but he puts together good albums and even the mixtape material of him i've heard I like...he's not like the dopest MC but most of the tracks he's on are hot in some way. I like the remix with him of Guns that meech put on the joker mixtape too.

The stupid thing about Game is that when he didn't say anything about dre doing the production. 

I don't how you guys come up with a conclusion that he'll quit.  I'm sure he'll starve with his music career.

Game is a little baby. He can't go plat so he retires? What a mainstream sell out tool. Does E-40 go plat with every release? No.

This just proves what I've always known, Game doesn't care about the west coast. He drops one album that doesn't go as expected and he plans for retirement? This proves Game is a poor, selfish artist, whos only in it for the money. People like Snoop, Cube, E-40 and all them are 10x the artists The Game will ever be. Why? Because they've all put in years of work to get where they are.

Game was handed his career, he didn't work for it. Thats why he doesn't appreciate it. The album wasn't even that good anyways. He made it to make money. That didn't work, so now hes retiring. Some artist.

Game's shit should be selling better though it is banging and I hear people bump it all the time, I bet 1/10 of the people that bump it bought it.

It sold 700,000. Cube sold 500,000, Snoop sold 650,000. And both their albums were better. People dick ride Game like he puts meals on their tables. The guy isn't very good at all. His lyrics are bad, his personality is bad, his attitude is bad, and his way of running BWS is bad. Whats good about him? He loves Dre more then all of us, I guess thats good. His company pays for good beats. Thats good. Find some better music. And leave this cookie cutter, mainstream shit in the trash.

sales are at an all time low

Thats just an excuss. Akon, Justin Timberlake, Nelly Furtado, Jay-Z are all selling just fine. The dick riders bought the Games album, and theirs no one lef to buy it. It wasn't a good album. Thats why its not selling.

because he was talking all kinds of shit, Nas didn't even say no 'I'm ado these numbers...." so he gets no flack for it, Game it's gonna come up cause he spoke on that shit.

Flopping has zero to do with sales. Flopping has to do with profits. If they spent 5 million making an album, and it goes gold, it flopped. If they spend a million and it goes gold, its a success. Game's album flopped because they spend so much money on it, and it did poorly. Paying all those producers, all those features, all that promotion. They expected it to sell millions so they spent millions.

hm...don't know that they lost money....say they spent 5 million on it...you sell 500,000 copies, multiply that by let's say even as little as 10 bucks per copy that's 50 million bucks...now add the fact that he sold substantially more than 500,000 and charged substantially more than 10 bucks per copy in many cases and they could only have lost by so much, I think everyone got paid...dude just didn't go platinum.-ach fucked up the math...nah, you may be right, they may have barely made their money back.

500,000 x 10$/copy is 5,000,000. But it doesn't matter because we don't know how much it costed or how much they made. Everyone got paid, but the expectation was way to high.

The ignorance of your post is, your hating on me for hating on Game. What are you doing? Hating on artists. Games album is better the Snoops. Thats your opinion buddy. Your hating on G-Unit, how is that different then me hating on The Game? Please man, don't turn this into an arguement about who makes better music. Arguing which rapper is better is like cutting off your leg because you don't want to walk to the fridge. Its just retarded.

I'm simply stating, Game "quiting" rap music shows his true character as an artist.
