Rapper Breakdown: Game


Rapper-Game (The Game)

Date-Early 2013

“The West Coast Messiah”

 

The Documentary

2005

Top Songs: Dreams, Hate it or Love it, How We Do, Higher, We Ain’t

Album Score: Beats-4.7 , Lyrics-4 = 4.35

Rapper Stats: Flow-84, Versatility-86, Relevancy-90, Critical Acclaim-72

Rapper Rating: 83

Comments- This was one of the best debut albums a rapper has had. Game came out strong backed by Dr. Dre & 50 Cent, and a plethora of varied beats. His flow was good at this point, but there was room for improvement.

 

Doctor’s Advocate

2006

Top Songs- Let’s Ride, Too Much, Wouldn’t Get Far, Doctor’s Advocate

Album Sore: Beats-4.1 , Lyrics-4.2= 4.15

R S: F-87 , V-85 , R-88 , CA-72

R R: 83

C: The D.A. was a really good album, especially considering that Game didn’t have any help from Dr. Dre and 50 Cent. Regardless of that he came out spitting hard. I feel that its better than his first album in some ways but overall it seemed like this was the best Game could do given he was dismissed from G-Unit/Aftermath.

 

2007-Non Album Year

Rapper Rating -3= 80

C: Game wasn’t all that relevant in 07…..

 

L.A.X.

2008

Top Songs: Money, Game’s Pain, State of Emergency, Dope Boys, Letter to the King

Album Score: Beats-4 , Lyrics-4.6 = 4.3

R S: F-91, V-89, R-86 , CA-65

R R: 82.75

C: LAX was a good album for Game. It was slightly better than Doctor’s Advocate despite not having the production of that album. LAX is a varied album that showcases Game’s improved flow. The critics thought the album was average. Game namedrops a lot here…like more than usual. He also has a lot of guest spots on here.

 

2009-2010

R R: -5= 77.75

C: Game was almost a non factor in hip hop during these two years.

 

The Red Album

2011

Top Songs-Speaker’s on Blast, The City, Pot of Gold, Ricky, Paramedics

Album Rating: Beats-3.7 , Lyrics-4.8= 4.25

Rapper Score: F-94 , V-90 , R-89 ,CA-61

Rapper Rating: 83.5

C: I feel this is one of the better lyrical performances by any rapper. Red Album is full of guest features and cohesiveness. The critics weren’t really feeling this album all that much, but it was in my opinion the best rap album of 2011. Game really varied his flow on this one.

 

 

Jesus Piece

2012

Top Songs- (Debatable)

Album Rating: Beats- 4, Lyrics-4.1= 4.05

R S: F-90, V-83, R-90, CA-66

R R: 82.25

C: I think Jesus Piece is a decent album, but Game doesn’t seem to be as focused as he was on the previous album. He’s got a lot of guests, and they help him out, but this album just feels like he just wanted to get it out of the way. Regardless there are some really catchy songs here like Celebration with Chris Brown and Lil Wayne.


 

Overall Album Score: 4.22

Non Album Year(s) Overall Score: 79

Rapper’s Overall Rating: 82.3

Final Rapper Comments: Game is one of my favorite rappers. His scores on his albums are pretty consistent. I look forward to the next album by the messiah of gangsta rap.

Doja Cat Albums Worst to Best

 Doja Cat has been one of my favorite rapper/singers of the past few years. Let's see which albums are the best from her. 5) Amala (88)- Doja’s first album is honestly pretty damn good. You can tell she was still refining her sound tho on this. The last 3 songs “Juicy”, “Tia Tamera”, and “Mooo” are so good. “Candy” is another banger. The album is really well balanced being pretty much good in all areas but not really great in any tho. Favorite Track: Mooo. 4) Scarlet (90)- Believe it or not, this was an album I was on the fence about getting. I’m glad I got it. This is a rap heavy album but there’s still plenty of singing here and there. “Demons” and “F**k the GIrls” are Doja at her roughest. “Attention” was a great single. “Agora Hills” is a nice cute track. The monster single “Paint the Town Red” is the best track however. This album wa a big departure for her, but for the most part it paid off. Fav. Track Paint the Town Red. 3) Vie (92)- This was Doja returning to her pop roots,...

Tech Review: Iphone Air

 I have only had this phone for over a week but I feel the need to review it. I recently got a 512gb light gold iPhone Air. This phone is so thin. You really have to hold it for yourself to believe it. I knew when I used it at a local Best Buy I had to have it. The phone is also a modern marvel having most of the technology in the camera bump. Of course you're wondering about that camera and battery life.  Honestly the battery is decent. It gets me through the day at work with minimal charging ( I mean who goes somewhere with no charger anymore?). The camera is good too. I'm not a huge camera guy anyways. The phone's 6.5 inch Super Retina XDR OLED display is great. I really notice a difference from my old phone (iPhone 12). The phone doesn't really get that hot either which is great. One thing I'm not a huge fan of is the one speaker on the phone....but honestly it's not that bad. I usually use headphones anyways. Apple Intelligence is still in beta but I think ...

Kanye West Albums Ranked (2026 Revision)

16) Vultures 2 (72)- It should be no surprise this album is the worst of the bunch. It just comes off as lazy and uninspired most of the time. The production is decent tho. “Bomb” features Yuno Miles and his daughters: North and Chicago West…..and it's really corny. “Husband” is just god awful. I don’t know what he was going for with that one! “Fried” is pretty dope tho….and you can see the potential of “530”. 15) Donda 2 (75) - I haven’t had a lot of time to sit with this one. It’s not that bad tho…in fact it’s kind of average. I really like “City of God” which features Alicia Keys and Five Foreign. Sure lyrically its not great but the production again isn’t bad. Ultimately I feel like this has little to do with the first Donda album…. 14) 808s and Heartbreak (83) - You may be shocked to see this still near the bottom of his discography. While I bumped the score up a little from last time, I still feel 808’s isn’t all that. I love “Heartless” as it’s probably the best song. “Love...
