Game's Discography

The Documentary: The album that put the Game on the map. It was heavily assisted by Dr. Dre and 50 Cent. Production wise the album is awesome featuring stand out tracks produced by not only Dr. Dre, but also Kanye West and Timbaland. The best song on the album is between Dreams and Higher. The opening track is also one of the best West Coast songs period. The Game does a good job lyrically but he seems better lyrically on his next albums. Overall this is a landmark album for the west coast.

Disc Rank: #1

Doctor’s Advocate: Some hail this as Game’s best album or his 2^nd best. I say neither. It is a pretty dope album though. Game stays in the spotlight and doesn’t lose any of it to his guests which include Kanye, Snoop Dogg, and Xzbit. What’s so impressive is the Game didn’t have any assistance from Dr. Dre but still retains that West side vibe feel. The album features a more lyrically focused Game who tackles tough issues like being kicked out of aftermath…..

D.R.: #4

L.A.X.: This is a special album in the fact that it had so many guest features and different producers. The first part of the album is dope, as are the last few songs. Sometimes Game is outshined by his guests like on Ya Heard featuring Ludacris, and Common on Angel. He does however hold his ground on Letter to the King which features Nas. Overall this album has a lot of good tracks but some seem to not shine as much like Let Us Live and Cali Sunshine. Overall this is another great album.

D.R.: #3

The Red Album: After LAX received mixed reviews from critics, the Game wanted to come back(after 3 years) a little harder. This album has a lot of tracks, but each song seems good to great. My personal favorite songs are The City, Red Nation, Paramedics, and Pot of Gold. Besides Pot of Gold, there aren’t really many radio friendly songs here. Instead there’s just lots of hard hitting songs. There aren’t really any weak songs, and the Dr. Dre skits are welcome. Game rarely raps the same way like he used to. Like he imitates Young Jeezy on one song, and sounds creepy on Martians vs. Goblins. Overall this is just a tad bit better than L.A.X.

Kanye West 2 Part-Post (Revised Top Songs & Album Ranking)

1. Gold Digger- To be honest, I didn’t like this song the first time I heard it. The beat is so infectious, and the lyrics are so clever, and that hook. Its his best song to date! He raps about a gold digging chick lol. 2. All Falls Down- Kanye is extremely introspective on this song. The hook and beat make it great. This is ranked so high because it was the song that really propelled him to superstardom in 2004. 3. Jesus Walks- A controversial song about Jesus being with those in need. Its just plain awesome. But I wouldn’t expect him to make a JW2 lol. Not in a million years. 4. Can’t Tell Me Nothing- The best song on Graduation is dope. It’s a dark sounding banger. Kanye drops lyrical gems here. The Jeezy sample and the other sample are pure genius. 5. Power- The aggressive first single to My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy...

Album Review: Kid Cudi-Insano (regular version)

I gotta admit I didn't like this album that much when I first heard it over half a year ago. I've heard that Kid Cudi doesn't exactly play to his strengths....that's partly true. I do like his rapping here tho. Honestly most songs here kinda blend together....."Keep Bouncin'" is really hype....and it gets the album off to a good start. "At The Party" with Pharrell Williams and Travis Scott may be my favorite song. "Wow" with A$AP Rocky is another highlight. Overall tho I feel this album tries too hard to be trendy. Cudi needed to put more of his pain into it. I mean a happy Cudi album isn't a bad thing but it really seems odd to me. You're not getting alot of singing or hums here know what I mean? However the production I found to be very good. Cudi is one of my favorite rappers like top 20 and I guess this will do for 2024. Lyrics 20 Beats 23 Depth 21 Tilt 21 Verdict 85

Album Review: Schoolboy Q-Blue Lips

Ok I am a big Schoolboy Q fan. I gotta say I love this album...but believe it or not what kept me from getting it till fall 2024 was that horrendous album artwork lol. I mean damn its gross! Schoolboy has some great flows and lyricism on this album. "Thank god 4 me" is absolute flames. "Blueslides" is another highlight. There's something about the song "first" that is just so catchy to me. "Yern" is also pretty hard man. The guest list is minimal but it works. The production is really good here too. The album isn't quite as good as Blank Face to me but its definitely a major improvement over his last album Crash Talk. Definitely check this one out. Lyrics 24 Beats 23 Depth 23 Tilt 23 Verdict 93
