    The Doctor's Advocate(Advance)=FIRE!!!!!!!

    If you're a Game fan or West Coast rap fan in general, than Game's latest album is straight flames. There are about 4 or 5 songs on straight crack(Compton, Ol' English, Wouldn't Get Far, Remedy, Why You Hate The Game) and all the other songs are pretty good too.

    If you didn't like The Documentary, you probaly won't like this either tho. He still namedrops like a b and 50's hooks are missin, but Game's lyrics and the beats are better on this. So far, so good.
    "Maybe I can't win. But to beat me, he's going to have to kill me. And to kill me, he's gonna have to have the heart to stand in front of me. And to do that, he's got to be willing to die himself. I don't know if he's ready to do that."

    Well, except like half the CD is praising Dre and Aftermath....it kind of bothers me seeing how Dre isn't on the album and he isn't with Aftermath anymore. Sounds kind of ridiculous.

    When I first heard The Documentary I was blown away. Not so much this time. Production isn't quite up to par with his previous effort. He misses 50 on a couple of hooks. Also I heard a couple of lines that sounded recycled. He needs to lose the whole "white nike air ones," etc lines. Pretty good album after first listen though.

      I'm not a fan of Game, but after a quick listen the album is pretty solid. The beats are pretty good and he stepped up lyrically ( not great, but better then the last album) On a few tracks, he almost sounds just like Dre.

      Some beats sound like Dre beats and word is, he co-produced some tracks, even though they are not showing up on the downloaded credits. Unless he told his producers to sound like Dre, I have to believe Dre had his hand in this at least just a bit.

        I'll listen to this.

        I'm one of those people that think The Game got better once he dropped 50 and his pathetic posse.

          album of the year thus far imo . yeah the name dropping is annoying(stop mentioning dre all the time) but his lyrics got better and this album flows great and is just flat out dope to listen to .

          that song with nas is crack! ive been bumping it since ive gotten it and im very impressed. easily is superior to the documentary . backpackers probably wont enjoy it and i know os has plenty of them but its a very dope album.

            I'll check it out, he's one of the few mainstream guys that actually has potential.

              I'll wait for the official album but every track I heard so far has been tight. I think he is better of without 50 and Dre is good but people act like he is the god of producing or something.

                I just can't really listen to Game and take him seriously. It's unfortunate because as an actual rapper he's pretty damn good, but he's just a joke. Every verse has at least 5 name drops and a subliminal at an artist who's 90% of the time a better rapper. And he's just a ho. He'll diss Jay and then come back and say "Naw, when I said "**** Jay Z" I was going at Tony Yayo". And the whole claiming to be a gangbanger and being a stripper. I mean, if he could stop trying to get on Dre's dick and just rap, he'd probably be the best mainstream rapper out by far.

                    Documentary was classic.

                    I listened through Doctor's Advocate today and I'm really liking it. I don't think it has that same type of hunger that his last joint did, but it's good. Wooooooooooo @ that track with him and Busta. Damn they killed that.

                    and I love how Game name drops. screw subliminal ****. lol @ Vida...oh man.

                          Hmm...everywhere I go, people are saying how good this is. I'm not really a Game fan, but I might just have to take a listen to it.

                            Usually don't keep any radio rap artists in rotation, but I gave this a download (I loved 300 bars, and a few others but that's about it from the Game). Right now I'm listening to the Just Blaze song Why You Hate the Game, with Nas. Pretty damn solid, sweeeet sample.

                            Edit: Okay, unfortunately I the first track I listened to was the only track I see myself enjoying off the entire album. The album will probably be a "classic" though to the masses, considering the production and featured artists. I found the track "Doctor's Advocate" to be different but it works, and is the only other track I consider decent.

                              It's really not that good. The beats aren't very good and the songs aren't that good. All my opinion of course.

                              If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)
