A track-by-track review of the Game's highly anticipated second album.
I can't believe it's the middle of November already. Wasn't it just Labor Day? For that matter, the Fourth of July feels like just yesterday. Kind of depressing, really. However, while the early darkness and dropping temperatures are a bummer, November is a huge month for hip-hop, with a plethora of big releases looming. I couldn't be more excited for Jay-Z's Kingdom Come (even if the first three leaked tracks were a bit disappointing). Nas has a new one. So does Snoop. The Clipse finally get to release Hell Hath No Fury. It's an exciting time.…

Hey Y'all,
Just thought i'd put my 2 cents in on the new Game Album. First up, I love all the BAPE bashing. Not that i hate BAPE, but it seems every damn hip-hop stars is wearing one of them hoodies. It's strange, the Bathing Ape name refers to the fact most teenagers in Japan are happy to live a relaxed / shallow life. Too quickly taking the advantages they were blessed with in life for granted, which is exactly the opposite of the way The Game has reached the level he has achieved, so I'm suprised a lil bit, but it's good to see Game not afraid to attack anything (Fuck he kills hypnotic)
Been alotta talk about no 50 and no Dre, but honestly, I ain't counting down the days to 50's new album. Seriously. The No-Dre show took me a bit by suprise (Especially since it's named after him) but after a listen I got over that. Didn't totally agree on "Bang" being left out, personnally i loved the line "We don't put stars on our shoes bitch, we put the whole car on our shoes" and the "Dribble rock like Wade and Bounce like Shaq", but I am a heat fan so.. what'd you expect? Anyways I've dribbled enough shit and its time to get to business.
Loved the album 4.5 / 5 Stars
(I agree the album is maybe about 2 tracks too long)
Best album since Busta's new joint. Nuff Said.

These reviews are confusing. It just seems that you guys bag on the track and than give it a 9 outta 10. Doesn't make much sense. I get no hint of 50 snitch on this album. All of the tracks are good, there aren't any bad tracks. I don't like the absence of black wallstreet shout outs in any of the tracks except for one. Where is the pride? This album is still amazing. West coast is back.

Lyrics ain't great. But Game isn't a lyricist, he's an anthem maker. If the production sucked, the ablum would, but it doesn't. Production is great; gave me the feeling of listening to a one man nwa. Classic

the game is truest since pac left,that nigga have the spirit of a true g and he is the soul of westcoast rap,he is bringin back what most of the westcoast rappers forgot,he got luv for the hood and he expresses his luv on his albums,50 saw that game is the saviour of the wescoast that's why he is hating,the doctor's advocate is dope EVERY TRACK ROCKS if u stop hating u'll see the truth
