The Game - DRILLMATIC Heart vs. Mind (Discussion Thread)

[Ziggiy]

Nobody going to mention how he stole Spittas flow on this track.

Breh thats literally the Game’s thing since his debut. Copying other rappers flow/voice. He’s the Shang Tsung of rap

 

[nairdas]

Listened to most of this and definitely solid. Heart vs Mind is cold as fukk

Twista had that 97 flow on the track he was on. I had to run that back a few times.

 

[oO J Smooth Oo]

This album is crazy

 

[HiiiPower]

Damn..I defended game in here when people said this would be too many songs since he has a good track record for consistently good long albums..but there is a good handful of filler on here

Game has literally never rapped this good before tho

 

[oO J Smooth Oo]

Top 5 of all time anyone who argues can lick a dried nut

Listened to the album once through now, the overall quality is great throughout, surprised how few joints Hitboy had out of the 30 though.

There are a few redundant tracks I probably won't revisit again like "Nikki Beach" but there's some quality material on here. The joint with Nip, "Outside", "Heart Vs Mind", "38 Special", "Stupid", "Money, Cash, Clothes" heaps of joints.

Man the amount of bars about Jay and 50 though

Also it looks like the Nip joint is gone now, wonder who fukked up clearing that.

Game would make a GOAT ghostwriter the way he can use other people's flows like nothing. I liked The Doc 2 better but for 30 tracks this is really solid with gems on it. It's amazing how he can get the entire rap community to jump on his album. Loved Ice T on the intro. Always nice when the OGs get some shine.

 

[DontEemTry]

Listened to a few tracks and came away impressed and I really don't even fukk with Game music like that.

Need a instrumental. Version

This dude really added a drake apology for skipping on a feature

 

[Uncle Baby Billy]

This is better than his last album but it's basically a Khaled album with tired samples, word-for-word verses interpolations and features.

My favorite is Change The game, which is identical to the original, but Ty was good on the hook.

Rick Ross song - it's cool, anybody know what the sample is?
Ice T song - cool.
Fivio - Game tried hard to mimic the Fivio bullet points flow, lol.
YG song - pretty good!
NBA YB song - didn't like it at all.
Roddy Rich song - good Vandross sample, typical Roddy singing.
Jeremih song - Suprisingly boring.
Pusha T song - boring.
Start from Scratch II - has nothing to with the original.
Blueface - pretty nice, Blueface was different a bit here.
Money Cash clothes - Hated the original, and this is just a cover song lol.
Cam'ron song - pretty cool.
Chris Brown Song - decent, will probably be the single.

Game rapped his ass off on here but as a project its too long to be enjoyable. Quite a bit of uninspiring features too. This could have been a great album if he cut it down to 10-14 songs. There’s 5-7 tracks I might come back to

"Not sure if you guys have heard the Game album Drillmatic. Something is off with the amount of samples...
He has Janet and MJ on one song. 'Got Till Its Gone' and 'Human Nature'..
I dont know why but I think its a new age marketing stunt / new idea they came up with. Release the music, trend on a million levels.. make the money and get sued after!
There are 30 tracks on his album. I think at least 25 samples.. big ones. Like they took major hits"

Damn breh you really didn't recognize it?
