The Game or Young Jeezy?

Wow. You must think Game belongs in the top 25 worst rappers. The lyrics on that album were pretty good in my opinion.

No, he doesn't belong in that group. But he's a paint-by-numbers rapper, and even when he's a little more complex stylistically, he sounds like he's reading out of a VIBE or an US ****zine. There's rarely any substance to what he says, and he honestly sounds like he just watches EXTRA and recaps it over a beat...that's my main beef with folks who overrate him. He's got a nice sound, but there's not much there once you look at it closely. That's just me; I know Game's got some big fans on this board.

This is like saying "we're going to give you a circumsion now, do you want a single Alleve or a single Advil"?

I'll take LAX...the instrumental version...

Daaamn, a bit harsh, i must say..

Both albums were pretty good, the production on L.A.X was crazy as you'd expect with a Game album, Jeezy's was not as good but was still pretty average and had a few tight joints...

They are not known for their lyrical abilities but i thought The Game did mix it up a bit...

if you listen to songs like never say goodbye, and letter to the king ^^^^... and tell me theres no substance... then you just dont know hip hop point blankkkk

These are 2 of the best songs to ever come out of the west coast.

Yessir... I made it a point to listen to it when it came out because of the hype. I guess I should clarify by saying true substance or saying it lacks heart. It's too paint-by-numbers for me, too gimmicky. Game's gimmick is "I'm a thug, I'm West Coast, I'm a celebrity - here's 1,000 other people's name that are in the same club, and here's a bunch of the themes I heard on West Coast records growing up..."

I have similar issues with respected artists ****e 1 and B Real/Cypress Hill for not being very versatile album after album with their subject matter...

I'll deal with Game's name dropping over Jeezy any day of the week.
