game has some pretty great diss tracks, not sure u remember. but he went pretty hard at g-unit, yukmouth, ras kass, and a few others when he first hit the scene.

i like all those tracks you mentioned. the budden one was nice too. the meek mill over that Young MA beat, fire. That one with Tyga at Lil Durk. Fire.

the love letter he penned to eminem? the one at ross? he got ignored like a 2yo having a tantrum. total clown shit

Lord Jammar is one of a very short list of rappers that never sold out.  So you can mostly trust what he's saying, though I don't always agree with everything, I agree with the guy most of the time.

And this is yet another instance where I do agree with him yet again.  I will admit though, I think we are both bias, because Game's whole style and persona made him like the last of the 90's eras rappers, even though he came after the 90's, if you look at the whole formula that went into his debut on Aftermath, it was still that same old formula from the NWA, Chronic, and Doggystyle days of making music. 

Kendrick is the new generation.  I give Kendrick a lot of props for being from the West, and being tied to Dre, and still gaining influence amongst all the young headz out there who aren't loyal to the West or to Dre, or the Death Row era the way that we are.  So Kendrick is doing something right.  But I'm sorry ya'll, but one of the voices or sounds that Kendrick does sounds fuccin gay to me.  My favorite version of Kendrick is the one we got on "Deep Waters" that's the best shit ever (and ya'll still sleeping on the COMPTON album it was the same quality standard of Dre's classic work and nobody should ever talk about it as any less than that).

Game has always shown me he could rap...the tracks he did with Nas are proof of that

as for Kendrick yeah he can rap but something about his voice and delivery seem off...just my opinion

Game never did anything close to what Kendrick just did as far as battling goes

You must be in your 20's  :D killing a whole movement like G-Unit is way different than killing a bubble gum soft artist like Drake get it together kid  8)

Im 12 years old, but I'm wise beyond my years. So let's zoom out a little. There are two ways to look at beef. One, which artist made better music and moves? Two, did the artist "lose" in court of public opinion and/or with respect to how fans perceived and supported them?

Working backwards, re Point 2 you are 1/1000 people on earth that thinks that re G-Unit. Game did nothing to G Unit. 99.99% of fans not listening to a 15 minute track. No one looked at 50 and crew any different during or after that beef, nor was anyone any less supportive of that collective becuase of Game. Obvious insults and shots - nothing new we learned about any of them. No inside intel. Nothing. G Unit were white hot, then they weren't - had nothing to do with Game. That's the natural order of things.

Yayo not getting a budget for a second album with or without Game dissing G Unit. Banks not getting a budget for another solo with or without Game beef. Same for Buck. Group came out with TOS which was half great, half filler - Did they make half filler because of the Game beef? Because they were heartbroken over 300 Bars? Lmao, no they lost their way. Those two mixtapes before TOS were fire front to back, though (3 yrs after 300 bars). What happened to 50 around then? 2008/09? He started the growling ad libs, the hooks and flows and song structures didn't hit the same. The relationship with Dre wasn't the same because 50 was established and they had the headphone beef  ...

Did that beef change the 100 classic joints 50 put out over time when he was on top (Power of the Dollar through just before Curtis) ? Of course not- that's why he can sell out arenas with 75k people in them. Did it change people's perception of 50 in the streets? No. Of the two artists, who came out the other side looking like an actor? What did we learn about Game in that beef: That Documentary's hottest shit was Massacre material. Indisputable fact. So that made objective fans (of which there are many more than 1000) look at Game much differently. I won't even get into all the suspect fuckery Game has did then through now. Doesn't really matter to me - he's the drunk uncle to me.

Re point 1, the songs themselves, the creativity, execution, and actual material itself that Dot put out >>>> any of those joints Game threw at 50 and them. We seriously going to compare Euphoria to anything Game threw at 50? "Pop star" or not, Dot went at a rabid massive fan base FAR FAR bigger than G Unit's - add in all the bots, the incel losers tweeting all day in defense of Drake, the loser bloggers that can be bought by Drake, etc.. NOT EVEN CLOSE what happened here vs what happened there. Slaughter.

right on dude. Saying Game killed g-unit when they were in natural decline after the hype fizzled out is wild. Everyone knows what goes up must go down and people move onto the next thing which was the T.I and the trap music sound and even the Kanye star began to rise more at that point and takeover with 50s third album vs Graduation released on the same day and Kanye coming out on top.

Brother do a better research next time
a) 2 out of 3 albums that you picked are 50's albums, who always been a WAY bigger artist than Game, so it isn't a fair comparison. But what about the rest of G Unit? Buck second album did 160k in 2007, G-Unit's second album did 100k in 2008 and Banks third only did like 30k in 2010. Not to mention that 50's Animal Ambitions did 40k in 2014, while Game was doing almost 100k a year later.

b) DA and LAX statistics hasn't been updated since 2008, you can bet both of these album are platinum now. But even if we're going by the outdated data: DA sold 360k first week, while Rotten Apple did 350 overall....

That’s a great question! Personally, I’ve always gravitated more toward The Game’s music and rapping style than Kendrick’s and have probably bumped his tracks more overall. Let’s break it down:

Both are West Coast icons and good rappers. But let’s be real: without The Game, there’s no Kendrick Lamar. Even Kendrick acknowledged his influence and paid tribute to him on his first major album. It’s time for people to give The Game the respect he deserves, especially musically - he doesn’t get nearly enough credit.

The Game boasts one of the strongest solo rap discographies in hip-hop, hands down. The Documentary and Doctor’s Advocate are undeniable classics, even for those who don’t like him. (Okay, Drillmatic wasn’t my favorite, but it’s an outlier hopefully...)

Kendrick, as a phenomenal lyricist, currently reigns as one of the most popular artists, leading both the West Coast and hip-hop in general - particularly with his masterful handling of the Drake beef and his new GNX album. However, The Game’s role in revitalizing West Coast rap in the mid-2000s, destroying G-Unit as a group, solidify his undeniable impact on the culture.

Winter weather over here buddy 8) What's your problem with this opinion? I don't know exactly if you lived through the early 2000's and was a rap fan back then...
The Game fought back against G-Unit by showcasing his lyrical power and delivering relentless diss tracks, including entire mixtapes like YouKnowWhatItIzVol.3, Ghost Unit, Stop Snitchin' Stop Lyin'. After his departure from G-Unit in 2005 due to tensions with 50 Cent, many doubted his future, especially after the success of The Documentary, influenced by 50 Cent. However, The Game defied expectations by continuing to drop powerful mixtapes and dissing G-Unit members with tracks like "300 Bars and Runnin'," which mocked their credibility. He proved his independence with the critically acclaimed Doctor's Advocate, showing that he didn’t need 50 Cent or G-Unit to succeed. Despite being outnumbered, The Game earned the loyalty of his fans and built a strong solo career, demonstrating his resilience and talent.
