Yo Today is The Documentary's 18th Anniversary. And man Such a classic. Such a f***ing westcoast classic. This album is really one of my fav albums of all time. Game really was on his prime. A young rapper coming up with a classic debut album. man had the buzz before he dropped the album man i miss that s*** too nowadays motherfuckers get the buzz after dropping 2 half ass albums. anyways thats not the case.
This album is a f***ing masterpiece. Rn Im even excited just talking about it<
Damn man the intro song

One of the greatest intros of all time. Man really introduced us to a classic right from the jump. legendary
And the beats.. the production.. Too many legends with some of their best work. Probably the last time Dre actually put some heart and effort to a whole project. You can tell so many legend take pride with their job while making this joint.
,
And then the kanye west produced dreams

Amazing beat amazing song.
And all of them name dropping were cool and not corny back then. It was cool witnesing a youngin respecting the OGs in the game and caming up with great records.

One of the greatest hiphop songs of all time with the biggest rapper at that time. I know some of yall want to turn this to a fight but Im glad this song came out like this they both made this song perfect together s/o 50.

Man sounds like he can rap on this for Hours FOREVER. Timba really murdered that s***..

Man I might be too excited or too emotional but this album is what got me reaally into the album culture and made me start listening to the new rappers. I only listened to 90s westcoast for years and this album was the bridge for me to connect so I might be exegarating a bit but tihs album is really a masterpiece and I got bored of some of my fav albums time to time but this whole album is so f***ing timeless to me I dont think i will ever get bored of it for a sec and I've listened to this album more than some people listened to their fav artists.

Anyways

Even tho you are a corny ass clout chaser loser ass motherfucker today I still appreciate what you did there and you will always be a legend. Thank you Jayceon

I remember being a little kid and always playin around saying “ooooooh you smoking weed” to anybody smoking cigarettes lol i didnt know what weed looked like at the time

This pic in the booklet really taught me what weed looked like lol

man... life was so simple when this dropped

i will kill you if you try me for my air max 95s

Thanks 50 cent for helping with this classic

Thank you game for delivering

Even tho you are a corny ass clout chaser loser ass motherfucker today I still appreciate what you did there and you will always be a legend. Thank you Jayceon

Classic album.

And what's even crazier is that The Game's next album, Doctor's Advocate, is even better than this one.

This was my sophomore year survival kit.

fresh like
uhhh
impala
uhhh
chrome hydraulics
808
drums

man i loved this song

this. doctors advocate also got so much play in la when that s*** dropped.

f*** i love the beat switch up from hook to verse

the way this sample is flipped is so clever to me

literally just a 8 bar loop but one tiny portion is triggered twice and then it continues to play out. sounds so perfect

one of those special sample flips where the original sounds wrong in comparison

god hate it or love it an instant classic s*** still sound just as good as it did 20 years ago.

My favorite rapper used to say check-check out my melody

Dre saying look out for detox in this album is ridicilious

The crafting all around this album is just incredibly clean

I would go far to say this one of the best mixed rap albums if all time

naw best mixed rap album is ricky hil syldd album

Tf is that
This album just goes hard in everywhere. In headphones in the club in the car in the f***ing phone. Just so clean

🅱️lassik

The 2nd greatest rapper to come out of Compton

classic

he actually later said dre aint dropping detox thjs is only one

We shoulda know better

My childhood right here
