Way I see it, it's pretty much a showcase for Dr.Dre's production and artists who worked under him.

First Snoop, Em, 50, then Kendrick. those were the highlights of Aftermath records.

Game was with 50 for a brief time

Snoop is “arguably rap’s first megastar”? I’d love to hear the reasoning for that argument.

:why:

Probably in the sense that people recognize Snoop even if they don't know his music....and he's well liked by virtually every demographic. Doesn't have a history of saying controversial shyt for the most part.

Even Cube would be tricky because of "anti-Semitic" :sas2: comments.

The Martha Stewart white woman set loves Snoop and of course all the Latinos, Asians and Blacks ride with him too.

There are people that could be considered better rappers but in terms of which rapper is the most liked? If Pac or Biggie were still alive, it would be them but....:manny:

Game is irrelevant and a sex offender. And he’s managed by a bozo gang member who is toxic (Wack). Who has been trying to dig up dirt on Eminem for months. Why would Dre fukk with him ever again?

He may be a west coast legend but to the rest of the country? Nah. Didn’t deserve to be on stage.

What song does game have to compare to songs perform like In da club, Lose yourself, Still Dre?
I don't think he should've been there at all, in fact low key felt kendrick was out of place too. He has great songs but no timeless shyt everybody the stadium was singing along to like the other.

Game did it to himself. He didn’t belong on the Superbowl Stage because he doesn’t have the career or the connects of the 5 artists who Dre chose.

Even eliminating Eminem from the equation because he was included solely as white America’s all time favorite rapper; 50 Cent’s In Da Club is a bigger song than any song Game has ever released. Snoop Dogg is a THIRTY YEAR Icon and arguably rap’s first megastar, Mary J Blige is also a THIRTY YEAR ICON and the biggest R&B artist of her era, and Kendrick Lamar is a wunderkind whose last album was the BIGGEST selling album of that year and made him the ONLY RAPPER EVER to win a Pulitzer Prize.

What does Game have competing with any of that? A rape case, a manager who himself would rather be alllllll in the videos, and a partridge in a fukking pear tree

Interesting.

Great points.

These coli nikkas retarded AF

Are you signed to Roc Nation?

did him dirty how?

it was Dre’s show. In theory he could’ve performed 5 of his solo songs (like The Weeknd) and kept it moving. He doesn’t owe game a damn thing.

Game is a fukking liability and his dealings with Wack make him automatically toxic. That comes with shytty optics that no sponsor will tolerate.

Meanwhile everyone who performed has bigger songs than Game. The most well known Game songs are 50’s records that were gifted to him — per the request of Dre.

If anyone should’ve got an invite, it should’ve been Cube or Warren G

I agree with this take. Game has never been the sharpest tool in the shed when it comes to how he moves and people he surrounds himself with.

The guy had a great story and he’s a great rapper. He never needed all the antics. Game with K.Dot’s temperament would’ve been bigger.

Yes, you’re right about Cube and Warren G. Playing “Regulate” alone would turn the place upside down.

I guess I was just expecting “Hate it or Love it” and the remix with Mary J.

there are obvious reason why
He has great songs but no timeless shyt everybody the stadium was singing along to like the other.

He represented an element of Hip Hop that no one else there could have. He's an artist under Dre's family tree that currently goes multi platinum every release. its a no brainer. everything didn't need to be catered to the sensibilities of the pop listener.
