    I agree in regards to him being overrated in a way... the only reason I'm hesitant is because i genuinely wonder if he really is that rated? I've always just seen him as one of the more popular mid-tier rappers that people never really proclaim to be a goat or anything.

    I'd actually almost argue his discography is similar to a diet eminem discog in terms of quality and drop off

    One of my best mates used to call me Drake back in these days - especially with the shaved head. I never really saw it though.

    I've always seen this get tagged with being an "overrated classic" but Idk, nostalgia does blind me a bit whenever I relisten to this.

    At the time, Game did seem like a huge breathe of fresh air in a West Coast scene that needed a new figure head post-Snoop & Dre. The namedrops didn't feel that annoying yet and although we know now 50 had a huge creative imprint on the album, I'd say Game still performed quite well over some of the most glorious production I've ever listened to (Game always had a very good ear for hot beats). His career didn't pan out like it should have, but Game still got a few bangers under his belt.

    Game is a talented rapper whose ticks and fall back ideas were stale from the jump. Dude really never had much to say that interested me.

    I think the sound/production etc is what makes me like it, not so much what he says
