LAX is TOO hated on
I still like it, don't get me wrong, I just think the rest of his main discog is even better
The game is ass. Really overrated lyricist.
The most basic s*** ever, never heard a bar that made me say “oh s***” nigga just be rapping lmao
it’s really good but personally i’m going Jesus Piece or Born 2 Rap as his best depending on my mood
Born 2 Rap really?
The most basic s*** ever, never heard a bar that made me say “oh s***” nigga just be rapping lmao
in that case, a lot of these rappers just be rapping...and they stink
It’s not his best for me but definitely top 3.
I got Doc 1, DA then 2.5. Followed by LAX and Jesus Piece. That’s my top 5.
The Documentary
Doctor's Advocate
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.
Well that’s a plot twist bc I think R.E.D. Album is a mess
All that heat and the best song wasn’t even mentioned, Quik’s Groove
I love quiks groove coulda named the whole damn tracklist
Used to listen to 2 and 2.5 a lot around the time they came out. Haven’t gone back to them since 2016 or so but they are both really solid
I’m starting to think the game might be getting overrated in some circles
On some over correction s***
Yeah he does make solid albums and can rap, but the lack of originality and X factor still matter.
I never feel like I have time to be listening to Game double albums and s*** even though I have nostalgia for him
Even the Documentary is boring to sit through
great album - appreciate this thread, forgot bout this one in his discography
documentary was first cd I bought so always holds close place, but game’s output later in his career may truly have topped his early material. gotta spend more time with some of these projects
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
I wanna agree with you, but Jesus piece holds its place in my heart
it’s really good but personally i’m going Jesus Piece or Born 2 Rap as his best depending on my mood
I couldn't get into Bron 2 Rap at all...Jesus Piece is a classic

On the contrary I always felt like he was underrated and has become more underrated with time as well
People nowadays clown Game and a lot of the younger listeners don’t consider him a legend like some of Games peers from his era
The critique Game always gets stands though, biting flows, multiple albums where you can tell certain songs were gifted to him, unlikeable at times
But his discography is very solid with multiple albums that can be considered (near) classics and that part gets wrongfully downplayed imo

I think those who know know though. People who care about discographies and stuff, he gets mentioned. Maybe not as much as Ross but almost.
He’s similar to Ross to me, very good catalogs but not enough wow factor to be a high tier great. And if I was gonna put one on today it would be Ross so I see why Game doesn’t get rated super high. But given how stupid he makes himself look, he still gets some respect and people checking for him
He’s lowkey accurately rated atp. Do people be listening to all his albums like that? Or is it just a catalog consistency d*** measuring contest? Idk how high consistent 7-8s can get you. The first 2 are the only ones that are classic level and I’d argue they’re low tier classics
