I dont really think Game would have a career, if he couldnt drop someone’s name everyone other word in his raps. I mean, just rap for once man. You dont have to say Dre, Jay, Snoop, Compton, Impala, or any of that 100 times to be cool. man… That’s why I hate listening to his songs cause its a constant name drop.
Decent video for a re-used Wayne line. Bout the same as Banner’s Shawty Say. Can’t anyone get Wayne to come up with something else? Like when he did Duffle Bag Boy or something. Just come up with somethin’ original than use the stuff from an other song

For those commenting on how much they hate the “funny voice shit” (vocoder/autotune) I’m guessin u don’t listen to much dancehall cause alot of dancehall artists have been doing that “funny voice shit” for a minute now..personally I think when done right its hard to deny but like any other sound its not for everyone.
“Your boy Michael Phelps just won another gold (in his weakest event no less) by 1/100th’s of a second. That shit was crazy son!!!!”
DAMN! That shit is crazy! Hes a beast.

he got an ear for good music, passionate on the mic, and every now and then will come with some lyrics. He’s sick brutha. yea, he’s not really all that original, but at least he acknowledges his influences; taking after Nas is not a bad thing after all. and as for name-dropping, yea, its kinda annoying, but doesn’t take too much away from an otherwise quality rapper. hating on the game is a lost cause.

u gotta give the game some credit…dude’s first two albums are certified classics…the other (few) emcees that can make that statement are considered greats (nas, biggie, jay, etc.)…the shit i’ve heard off the new album doesn’t sound quite as nasty but i’m still waitin on the dirty version so i ain’t heard all that much…if it can come close to Doctor’s Advocate or The Documentary it should cement dude’s place among the hip-hop elite…people are gonna hate on dude, he invites the hate with the statements he makes and the dumb shit he says…but it’s hard to deny his track record

Contrary to the impression created by a recent radio interview, The Game says he has no desire to engage in a battle of words with Jay-Z. This comes after the Cali rapper’s comments with Phoenix radio personality Chino of 104.7 KISS FM, during which he broached the subject of beefing with Jay, making statements that appeared to be batting the former Def Jam president.
But Game clarifies that the statements were made in response to an alleged incident of which he has no proof.
“I heard that Jay sorta said something about me at the Wimbledon tennis match,” The Game said. “I didn’t see him say it, I didn’t hear no audio so I don’t really know if he was dissing me, if he said something about me.”
Rumors of animosity between the two artists surfaced in 2005, following the release of a Jay-Z freestyle verse that seemed to be taking aim at the then G-Unit member.
Still, while Game says he recognizes Jay-Z’s ability to subliminally attack an opponent, something which he says he’s incorporated into his own style, the rapper maintains he has no desire to fuel the rumor mill.
“What people don’t know about Jay is Jay is probably the most witty rapper that ever walked the face of the earth,” Game explained. “He’s witty, he’s clever. His metaphors will be sitting right next to you and then hit you in the face so hard that you don’t know what happened. That’s the type of rapper Jay is. I was molded by that part of him and added that to my own persona and my own marksmanship as an emcee.
“Jay-Z’s a legend, man. I respect his music, [but that] doesn’t really mean I have to respect him if he’s disrespecting me. The Jay that was talking about me at Wimbeldon under his breath, or says anything about me, is the Jay that I’ll go at, and that’s just it. Jay the rap artist, Jay the legend, Jay from Marcy Projects; that hustler turned dope artist, turned probably best lyricist that ever lived: I have respect for. I’m not gonna add wood to a fire that’s already burning out.”
LAX, which Game has said will be his last offering as an artist, is due in stores on August 26.
The star-studded opus features appearances by Lil’ Wayne, Nas, Common, Ludacris, Raekwon and Ice Cube, as well as R&B inflections courtesy of Bilal, Chrisette Michelle, Raheem DeVaughn, Ne-Yo, and Keyshia Cole, who appears on the album’s lead single “Game’s Pain.”
The album also serves as a springboard for Game’s renewed focus on building his Black Wall Street imprint.
“I have a slew of producers and I’m starting to develop artists and getting more focused,” he says. “This my third album, and it’s time to focus on my folks. And my label. The camp’s on the album. So we’re just learning each other, growing as a family, and we’re gonna do big things in 2009 and the years to come.”
LAX features productions by two of BWS’s producers: Tre Beatz and E.P., contributed three tracks and served as the album’s executive producer.

GIIIIIIIIIIIDDDEEEE DAMN!
I made it about 30 seconds in to Onsmash video and my Dell PC blew up from all the name dropping!
My Microsoft keyboard blew up and I had to send this comment through a HP fax machine (next level son,step ya game up)
alright moving on
Seriously though
Can Game rap without dropping a name every 3 seconds or 1.5 bars?
That shit is ALmost as annoying as the ghost of Roger Troutman possessing every muthafucker that steps into a booth nowadays
::dips out in bucket before Game Stans show up in their momma’s mini-vans
I can’t get “Prostitute II” out my head and I ain’t even listen to it.
I tried listening again and Wayne is on the “funny voice shit” again “singing” the chorus…..
I just hopped in my bunk bed,mixed some Kool-Aid and Cyanide,put on some milkshakes and layed down for a nap

The Game has some potent product on the block for the fiends.
That House of Pain beat is iiiiiilllllll.
Why don’t more rappers utilize great southern beatsmiths, like 3-6 or KLC?
