WTF.

You tend to be only listening to 8 or 9 tracks and the album was probably 3 or 4 songs too long. but i think there were some stand outs and i have to admit as much as im not the biggest fan of the Game he is mr consistent when it comes to albums because in my opinion he hasn’t released a bad one. similar to kanye. (besides 808)

and when i say that im giving hi praise cause jay-z, eminem, snoop, 50 cent, nas and most other commercial artists have all released more then 1 shit album.

in my standards of music or if this was 10 years ago i would give it 2.5/5 aswell. but in todays rating world i think where abit kind with our ratings so thats why i gave it 3.5/5

in my standards there has not been one 5/5 album released in the last 10 years. with clipses first 2 albums, dead prez lets get free, eminems slim shady lp, the original reflection eternal and maybe a few others being the closest to it.

compare that to the 90s where i could name 30 or more albums that i would give 5/5.

He has great chemistry with each person he works and the songs end up working out for him. When I first looked at the track list I wondered why Game would need so many guest appearances but after listening I am no longer bothered by that anymore The album has a strong concept that holds it together & is carried out throughout. I do have to agree & say that there’s some songs that could have been left out but i’m sure they’ll grow on me.I personally enjoyed the album but to each its own.

First run through had a really good impression (Premier track, Speakers on Blast, The City etc..) but as listened more I just wanted to listen to 8 or 9 songs instead of the whole thing. It could’ve been a gritty 45 or 50 minute album but it doesn’t have the direction to hold me for 72 minutes, and that’s where it lost me, hence the 2.5.

I agree with the pop songs at the end but technically there not that bad. The Nelly Furtado track is a great track and thats a sick neptunes beat aswell.

Dj premier track is hot. Just wish Nas had that beat instead.

the beanie sigel and ricky ross track is great too.

the album is pretty good.

3.5/5

i could give it 4/5 but seriously young jeezy? why would you have this bloke on your record….. thats the only song i deleted on my iphone and the albums sounds better for it.

It does have its lows, but the good tracks make up for that. This is at least a 3.5, but I think The Smoking Section got it right with a 4/5.
