It really aged so well, def one of the most underrated hiphop albums in recent memory
The album just has everything and all the features deliver too
From Adam still gives me the chills
Intoxicated one of the smoothest interludes I’ve ever heard and the classic throwback to DJ ez d*** still has me rolling
Production is amazing and super consistent. I love the first Documentary and Documentary 2 as well but 2.5 is special to me so I just wanted to post this lil appreciation thread
Respectfully not even a top 3 Game album.

So many top tier Game joints
What is your top 3
Was gonna basically make this same thread the other day, but for 1992.
Impeccable as an album imo, totally on theme and fully allows Game to do an album about the s*** he loves without a thousand features.
Not that I dislike his usual thousand features approach - Documentary 2 and 2.5 are also great records - but 1992 hits different amongst his catalogue, and deserves recognition imo.
If I have to rank the albums:
Documentary
1992
Doctor's Advocate
Documentary 2.5
Documentary 2
R.E.D. Album
Drillmatic
Jesus Piece
Born 2 Rap
LAX
Very good album. Game is hated on for his cap and social media antics but he a top tier rapper

His discog is very underrated, one of the rare examples from his generation just like Nas who dropped some of his best projects late in his career

The R.E.D Album
I know it's not a popular take for R.E.D to be in top 3 but man that run of tracks from The City to Paramedics is f***ing HEAT.
Game peaked with the song Higher
also one of rap's best beat ever
His best song and it’s a shame he didn’t even write it smh

LAX is TOO hated on
I get why people like 2.5 more cus of how many quality songs there are, but 2 deserves more love too .. That opening run is so crazy and s*** like Circles, title track, Summertime, Mula, 100
it’s really good but personally i’m going Jesus Piece or Born 2 Rap as his best depending on my mood
