I can't deny Game's success as an artist and he's been a big blessing for the West but if you believe this "by his self" shit, then you are the kind of cat that can be tricked by the power of suggestion. You either aren't a real fan of the guy and know nothing of his history or you're so buried in believing this shit that you wouldn't know otherwise anyway. Between JT The Bigga Figga, Big Fase 100, Dr. Dre, 50 Cent, Jimmy Henchman, Jimmy Iovine, Game was nowhere near by himself during his rise to the top of the charts. Game would not be where he was if he wasn't talented or hard-working. Let's not take any of this as a knock on him or what he does but his first record was built off the strength of his G-Unit affiliation and being a proetge of Dr. Dre. Anyone can say differently when they are in a more comfortable spot and capable of eating on their own but he wasn't someone like Busta Rhymes who came into Aftermath with an established fan base of his own. Is any of this a bad thing? No. Just don't try and change the story to incorporate his "single-handedly" doing anything.

Nah I hear what you saying man. Game is a touchy subject for most in this section. I thought I was going to get the RadioTube treatment when I made a joke about Game calling his next album the R.E.D. album.

if it wasn't for 50 & Dre, you wouldn't know who Game is.you can hate on them all you want, but it's true & there is no denying that.
Aside from Juice, I heard most of those artists without the help of the game
Never that Dre Day, I am going to be D~Nice at the end of the day, speaking my mind. You know how sensitive people get about Game.
How many west coast rappers have significantly benefited of Game's success? Answer = 0Off topic but I don't understand why European wiggers are so obsessed with this "saving the west coast" & "resurrecting g-funk" thing.

He probably could have done more (like actually turn BWS into a label) but at this point, nobody else is really stepping up to the plate.
