Schooling people takes forever; don't bother
LA LA Land doesn't samples Show Me What You Got?
totally forgot, it was looped the same way by pharrell for Wreckx-N-Effect's Rump Shaker so idk if going straight to the sample didn't have to involve Jay in any way



anybody post this yet?


wack needs to check his ego and stop double downing on his shyt talking. idk wtf wack is trying to do


Ooooookaay, I'm the only one that sees what's wrong with that line.
there's plenty of weird lines Game did as subliminals over the years that people miss because he's mostly direct with his disses

"Make America Great Again? You a fukkin' c00n" on Welcome Home sounds like a Kanye subliminal from 2019 in addition to all the snippets of Game talking crazy about Kim on unreleased records before Kanye got his divorce and now they were back collaborating again on this album

Meek Mill was featured on this Game's album and the general public has amnesia that Game dissed Meek in 2016 on Pest Control, like it's normal to be back cool again after that publicity stunt to sell records but initially was because sean kingston got robbed in LA saying Game had something to do with it...Game didn't want to make diss songs about a non-rapper so he somehow pivoted to Meek Mill who was also at that party

Even tho the song verses was talking about Compton, Game's chorus for "Outside" is "You gotta watch them n who only seen the hood from out they window"...if the chorus is examined without the rest of the verses, "Watch Dem N" is a Nas song from IWW, "Project Windows" is another Nas song. There's plenty of references of rappers talking about Nas not being outside, like Jay-Z on Takeover: "you ain't live it, you witnessed it from your folks' pad, You scribbled it in your notepad and created your life" so idk if that's a stretch given that Game's album is named after illmatic without Nas on it

man get the fukk outta here, there is a bunch of good tracks on here a ton
Maybe some tracks will grow:manny:but as of now not really feelin it. Home invasion, killas, one time and burnin checks all go:fire: I like la la land too. I think games skilled and wen he’s on doc and doctors advocate mode I like him. Trust me I been a game fan for awhile after Jesus piece I just thought his discography was whatever. I bought all this guys albums to Jesus piece first week. But as time went by dude just ain’t elite to me but in reality he should be because on the right track he’s on one. His albums ain’t it for me most tracks ain’t got that replay value. Black slim shady is dope as fukk too. Like I said no bias just my honest opinion

That dude in the video Sounds like a dweeb Em Stan :camby:
yeah that guy is bringing that obnoxious tiktok style videos onto youtube shorts with those annoying word annotations on the screen like people can't read or something, youtube has already been gathering a cesspool of garbage videos and now it's even worse competing against tiktok attracting those creators

just realized that meek mill already did that 'talk to me nicely' song concept with Fab where both of them are autotuning about relationships


rapping meek mill is so much better. leave the autotuned hooks to these new rappers who can actually pull it off without sounding whiney

You can tell they're hurt by the diss record. One guy on Youtube already said these are the fans on there.

Game needs to get the whole LOX and do a song together


lol @ dishing out disses


khaled probably gave game the weakest song that didn't make khaled's latest album



Jesus Piece is a really good album. This might be the same just more modern.

It sucks that Drillmatic flopped, because it is a AOTY candidate. The flaws are suddenly showing though:

  • Album feeling more of a mixtape
  • Album being too damn long instead of just right (18 tracks tops)
  • Game looking like a bum with taking "Opp" off due to that 200k NBA Young Boy verse
  • The "samples" not even being creative (Bulletpoint 1)
Overall, Drillmatic would have sold like hotcakes in 2015-17 ish before the corny shyt became the wave. Dude is such a good rapper and got a ear for beat, but his manager is a smoothed brain idiot and Game is a complete moron.
