Boy you know something...
Game and Rick Ross are the two most underrated rappers who were once superstars. Cats really treat these dudes like they average and both are clearly deserving of being mentioned as All-Timers. The quality of their work holds up well compared to damn near anyone...
Old dudes on here talk about Game's early career (00s/pre-2010) with reverence, and to be fair, there are gems in his early career, particularly of course The Documentary and tracks off his other early work. But mid-career he hit a different level of artistry and lyricism beginning with Jesus Piece, that continued to elevate as you mentioned thru 1992. Old nikkas stuck in the 90s and 00s missed this version of Game at his absolute apex, and while he always had above average lyrical ability and song-making, anyone who missed this mid-career run and speaks on Game is outta pocket...
He's one of the greatest rappers of his era, you can't make a Top 25 list of the 2000-to-present without him, which makes him comfortably one of the 50 greatest rappers ever. Cats should put a lot more respect on his name...
