I hear what Joe is saying but what Game did for the West when he did it was a huge moment in itself. That gets overlooked because well…it’s the West.

Game solo catalogue is underrated but I also understand what Joe means and most people probably feel the same way

Doctor's Advocate and LAX were very good albums too, but Documentary was definitely his big moment and it was very 50 involved

HES RIGHT.

GAME DROPPED SOME
GOOD MUSIC POST GUNIT
BUT ALL OF HIS CLASSIC
MATERIAL IS ON THE DOCUMENTARY

:devil:
:evil:

I feel like his second album was his best

Comparing Game to Jadakiss, Game still had a more successful career with a stronger catalog than jadakiss even if gunit was his peak.

The Documentary is not a classic, it’s a formulaic tour de force though

You’re in the minority with this opinion. But we all have albums that are classic we feel aren’t and I see what you’re saying and agree that it is formulaic but that doesn’t change how impactful it was and how great the music is. That’s all that matters

Jadakiss was never bigger than Game was when he dropped Doctors advocate and LAX, which were after 50.

Game's fall off was bigger than Jadakiss whole career.

Game wasn’t a good songwriter so it was bound to slow down

Hate It Or Love It & How We Do cannot be separated from 06

You may like his music after that but it’s difficult to argue any of his music mattered after that.

If you put on any of his singles post Documentary in Anywhere, USA there’s going to be a bit of confusion from people as to what the fukk they are listening to

Devil’s Advocate sold well when it came out yet none of that shyt aged well or stood the test of time

You might as well throw on some 2 Pistolz

Everybody knows how much I dislike The Game but I think Joe talking out his ass saying what he says and with his history with Game he coming off bias and can't be truthful in this discussion. You can't try to cancel out/exclude Game's biggest solo music and albums and then big up Jada's when the majority of it is with the LOX. Dudes always try to move the goal post and make their opinion fit the narrative and start talking about "moments" instead of music and albums.....the shyt that matters when talking about artists.
Jada had a cute moment with the other washed up Dips and now he ranking him better than Game.... Nevermind Joe had Jada and his son (who still comes every now and then) on the show...No way they could have an honest discussion about this especially Joe's compromised ass.

Outside of one blood and his g unit disses what classic material does he objectively have that the hip hop community not his fanbase would agree on?

I also think Jesus piece is better than the documentary but I’ll be wrong if I said it’s classic cause it’s not. The documentary is his only classic
Does Jada have any classic albums? Does he even have a good album?

Game has 1 certified classic and 1 thats debatable. Jadakiss is from the class of dope mixtape rappers who couldn't make a decent album to save their life.

I’m not talking bout Jada but I also believe people overrate him on all time lists. Dude doesn’t have anything close to a classic album

I agree with your sentiment though

The topic of the conversation is game being above jadakiss on a best rappers list.


Joe's claiming Game cant be above Jadakiss because his best album was under 50, but Jadakiss doesn't even have an album better than Games worst album, so how can you put Jadakiss above Game?
