people really acting like Game didn't drop like 44 songs for a triple mixtape back in the days for 'purp and patron'...he was on a mixtape dropping spree from 2010 to early 2012 and then fukked around and dropped the classic 'jesus piece' later that year off one song concept from the title track with kanye and common

..features galore, a bunch of random leftover songs repackaged as a collective but has some replayability. game always over delivers on tracks but i think he moved away from mixtapes once he got his own label so the leftover tracks nowadays are just vaulted or end up on rehashed on albums with the original variants missing given that artists sometimes need mixtapes to get core audience feedback before dropping songs worthy of albums or songs randomly get bushed like 'violence' -- hot beat but he didn't go as hard on the verses for it to stick as a single...i think the knock on game has always been he doesn't generate enough attention off his solo projects and often have to resort to a bunch of features just to get any viral conversation started from crossover listeners -- his core audience still like his mixtape 'jacking for beats' series where he's going in for hundreds of bars with no hook (usually dissing someone or name dropping them) but he basically has to conform to fit the album template by crafting hooks making catchy songs (with the khaled nostalgia template of rehashing already-classic beats) out of otherwise rappity rap lyrics that the likes of eminem can drop for his core stans to consume but the general audience gets bored, etc
judging off song titles alone, why does he have an interlude called 'drake with the braids'? he already made a song called 'ai with the braids' not on any album given that he wasn't in the mood to make an album to pay lawsuit money...what's next? 'pusha t with the braids?' 'snoop dogg with the braids?' 'alicia keys with the braids?'

where all my sites dead!
Surprised to see no Nas feature given him and Game are tight and the Hit-Boy connection. Thought that would be a slam dunk.
Nas has been rather light on features this year, he only showed up on an interlude on Joey Badass’s album. Both Cordae and Pusha T wanted him on their albums; he must be locked IN for KD3

PM me a link if you can
LAX is Game’s most underrated album.
Hopefully cause KD3 is coming very soon.
