    Here's the trailer for the upcoming mixtape, 'The Hangover'.



    Not sure what you guys think but that snippet is pretty impressive IMO.

    Well he only drops one name (Rihanna) in that so it's better than the makority of his stuff already :p:p I'm only joking.

    It's pretty good yea. Any idea what the beat is? I feel like I know it from somewhere but it could have been just made up for this as well

    The beat samples the theme from the horror movie 'Phantasm'.



    Mobb Deep used the sample on their track 'G.O.D. Part 3 (Remix)'.

    New interview with VIBE, talks about the mixtape, Wiz, J.Cole and confirms that Lil Wayne and Kanye will make the album.
    Double CDs may be a thing of the past, but last Wednesday (Jan. 26th), Compton rapper Game took us back in hip-hop time when he dropped the 29-track, double disc mixtape, Purp & Patron. With guest appearances from Lil Wayne, Wiz Khalifa, Fabolous, KRS-One and more, the LA menace once again turned the blogs red. Game has provided more than enough music to help fans remain patient until he releases his oft-delayed fourth album, The R.E.D. Album. Twenty-four hours after the mixtape’s release, VIBE wrestled the rapper onto a mobile phone to talk recording with Wiz Khalifa and Weezy, The R.E.D. Album’s delay, the Laker’s lackluster season, and face tattoos.—Mikey Fresh



    VIBE: Purp & Patron is getting a lot of love online, but did you have any second thoughts about releasing a double mixtape?

    Game: I had no idea that it was going to kick off with the reception that it’s gotten—the same way I had no idea that The Documentary would be a classic or that hip-hop would even take me this far. But I had no doubts, even though mutha****as don’t even want to hear a person on three songs in a row anymore, let alone a double mixtape. I got a lot of hip-hop friendships, so I knew I could keep the people’s attention. Purp & Patron was just an idea that me and Skee came up with, and when we posted the picture online, Flex called me up and said he had to be a part of the tape. We didn’t have any real promotion or help from the label.

    This also feels like one of your first releases without a major beef.

    It feels good to put out a tape and not have one beef song on it. I can’t even call it rare because it never happens. That’s just not Game-like, so I think it lets everybody know where my mind state is right now. I’m just chillen’. The only thing I’m concerned with is finishing the The R.E.D. Album, which is going to be nothing less than ****in’ incredible.

    You have a big record with hip-hop’s current MVP, Wiz Khalifa, how did you guys connect?

    I was just a fan, man. Me and Wiz smoked for probably four hours straight before we recorded anything. He resembles a young Snoop, and I never got to record with a young Snoop [Laughs]. I only got to record with legendary Snoop, that’s the big homie, so it was a no-brainer. Hip-hop always comes 360 degrees. The new generation will always remind you of the pioneers, and it’s a love thing. Just like B.o.B. is to Outkast. We actually did 2 others songs in our session. He’s got another track for his album, and I got one for mine.

    Technically, you’re the originator of Taylor Gang [laughs].

    I was yelling out Taylor Gang way before the young homie. [Laughs] So people expected me to try and come at him, based off my history and my nature, but it ain’t even about that. I respect Wiz and his artistry. That’s dude’s brand name. It just so happens my last name is Taylor and one of my dead brother’s name is Charles, so I put it together like that before.

    Was Wiz in the studio with you when you recorded “I’m The King”, it definitely has his musical feel to it.

    Nah, I was in there with my boy Mars from 1500 and the beat was just so bouncy—that’s how my vibe came out. It really sounds LA to me.

    When did you record “Su Woo” with Weezy?

    We did that right before he went in. Wayne always looks out for me on anything. I’ve been talking to him damn near everyday, he’s actually in LA right now. You’ll see him on the The R.E.D. Album, and you better believe anybody that ****s with Wayne got major problems with me.

    Was there anybody that you wanted on the mixtape but couldn’t get?

    I really wanted J. Cole on the mixtape. As an artist I can say that I really respect his craft. The music that he makes is stuff that I can get into. In my opinion, he’s one of the next rappers to look out for. We’d have to call it “Cole Game” [Laughs].

    I noticed you referenced that you would talk with 50 again, but I can never tell if you’re truly serious about it.

    It’s possible for me. I’m an opportunist, and I got a family. I ain’t the one to hold grudges, but 50’s got an ego…I ain’t mad at nobody right now, so maybe one day we’ll be able to put it to bed or maybe we won’t. One thing for sure is that he’s rich as **** and will do fine without me—and I’m paper-ed up so it never happens—I’ll be cool. The door’s cracked open, it’s not a closed door.

    As your mixtape was dropping 50 was all over New York radio saying he shut down Worldstarhiphop.com, did you catch wind of this?

    I caught it, man. But I ain’t really got no comment on that. I was just like ‘where the **** did WSHH go?’ Then it went back up, but 50 is like that. He definitely got enough power to shut some **** down, even if it’s only for a half a day.

    Moving back to music, by now we’re all familiar with Nipsey Hussle, Jay Rock, Kendrick, etc, but there’s an even younger and newer movement of rappers emerging from the West. Have you heard of Lil B and Odd Future?

    Lil B is on my radar and Odd Future is managed by my dude Chris, who I just made a part of my management team as well. Dom Kennedy is putting in work out here, too. My favorite might be a kid named Famous Fresh. He might have the most crafty style out of all the new cats.

    So when are we finally going to get The R.E.D. Album?

    Before the world ends [laughs], that’s supposed to be 2012. Nah, man nothing is changing, Pharrell is still executive producing the album. There’s a lot more people on The R.E.D. Album that weren’t on the tape, my fans is going to go nuts. It’s not to be confused with a street album or mixtape, everybody from Dr. Dre, Drake, Wiz, DJ Premier, Just Blaze, Kanye, Swizz, Cool & Dre, and the list goes on.

    As long as it doesn’t turn into a Detox situation I think we can wait a little while longer.

    If I made mutha****as wait ten years for The R.E.D. Album, that **** would probably sell one copy, I ain’t going to lie. I don’t think I got that long. Everybody can’t be Dre. He going to do his numbers, and I ain’t taking a page out of his book. He might be the only one that could pull that off. There’s timing and label politics involved, it aint like you just press CDs and put them out, but my fans will be happy with the end product.

    I have to ask, who are you rooting for in the Super Bowl?

    Green Bay all the way. Green and Yellow, Green and Yellow [laughs], they can't lose.

    You seem pretty confident, but what’s up with the Lakers?

    I think that the Lakers should just stop playing regular season games and just wait until the playoffs to beat the **** out of whoever is there. It doesn’t matter what happens in the regular season. All we got to do is make the top 8 and we’ll blow away whoever comes to the championship. They always want to **** on Kobe, but we always take the trophy home.

    I don’t know man, Amare and the Knicks are looking tough this year.

    Yea, it took yall forty years to finally get right. The Knicks ain’t been **** since Patrick Ewing knees went bad [laughs].

    We'll see during playoffs, man. One last thing, you’re no stranger to getting ink on your face. I was wondering if you had a chance to check out Gucci Mane’s new ice cream cone face tatoo.

    I seen Gucci’s new face tat and as soon I did, I thought ‘finally they can get off me about his butterfly/star/LA ****.’ That’s what I thought. But you know what man, I don’t give a **** about what they say about anybody, a mutha****a could tattoo a butterfly, ice cream cone, apple pie on their cheek. Bottom-line, if you know Gucci, you know he’s real. He been on trial for his life and all of that. He bodied people. So he could tattoo a ****in’ tampon on his face for all I care. You can’t say he’s buster or whatever. And me I done been shot, stole ****, robbed people, everyth-****in’-thing you can think of. Tattoos don’t mean ****, they ain’t nothing but good art.

    The second leak from 'The Hangover' mixtape which will be released later tonight.



    Also a look at part of the tracklist which confirms that there will be 15 new tracks rather than the 10 Game and Skee originally claimed.

    Cheers, I think its a savage beat. Still no idea where I know it from though. Think it might be an Eminem song.

    That new track you posted is pretty good. Any idea who the female rapper is? It sounds like Nicki Minaj but she's not attacking enough in her delivery to be her I don't think. Looking forward to listening to it tomorrow now.

    This could be the song you're thinking of? It's a remix but it uses the same sample.

    The female rapper is Kanary Diamonds, she was on a few songs on The Red Room mixtape.

    Yea I know her now. Thought she was great over Lil Wayne's Drop the World beat. Her reference to Optimus Prime still has me in stitches. Never thought anyone would make that connection with the bloods and crips. Apart from 400 bars that's easily my favourite track on that mixtape.

    Also I thought it was one of Game's best tracks. Not much as much name dropping as usual. Loved the bit about Tiger Woods though. Any word of Kanary being on the album do ya know?

    AFAIK, she won't be on the album. I think almost every rapper in the industry has been linked with R.E.D. at one time or another but Kanary has never come up. Never really followed her to be honest but she has a mixtape that you can download here: http://kanarydiamonds.com/

    The tracklist for 'The Hangover' has just leaked. Not sure if anyone will remember a video that was posted in this thread about 5 months ago showing Game in the studio, listening to a song where he talks about his sister being raped but that song was 'Lost' and it will be included on the 'The Hangover'. The video has been removed from YouTube since but it had a very dark, grimy beat, sounded very promising (thought it would make the album TBH). Looking forward to hearing that and the song with Busta and Marsha Ambrosius.
    01. The Hangover (Prod. By Mars of 1500 Or Nuthin')
    02. California
    03. Yung Stunna Feat. Birdman

    im liking this way,undefeted and lovebirds

    lovebirds is just something different and this way has a proper hip hop feel to it, undefeated is good stuff both nail the beat.

    dont know what the big deal with lost was its pretty average.

    id say about 60 per cent of these tracks are red album leftovers, there's no way game would be splashing out for timbaland and dre beats for mixtapes aswell as rza,premo and pharrell etc and he wouldn't gather all them features in a short period of time since he announced the tape a while back, there's an album kind of sound to most of them bar the obvious like white soft porn which were heavily linked to the album.

    despite of that there both pretty good efforts, just get the album out now so we can all listen to it,again my main hope for red is that he just goes easy on the features its crazy how many ft's are on both the hangover and purp n patron.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 25,730 Mod ✭✭✭✭Boom_Bap


    RZA (or his people) have filed a lawsuit against The Game for using his beat. The sample was unclearable so it was taken off the album. So Game put it on the mixtape which has ruffled some Wu feathers.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,970 ✭✭✭mufcboy1999


    the sound quality on some of the songs are terrible, anyone else notice this?

    taught it was just the laptop but some of the songs come out very poor (sound wise) especially the undefeated track with busta, iv both mixtapes on the ipod and then burned onto a cd for the car and some are pretty bad.

    i know its not just me, one of me mates said the same thing.

    i know when its sometimes converted to mp3 etc it effect the sound but not to this extent.

    I really hope that is the final tracklist, look at those features!

    Personally, Wayne and Wiz are my favourite rappers so needless to say RED Nation looks amazing to me, but why would Wiz and BOB be on a blood song? Seems odd.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,213 ✭✭✭PrettyBoy


    The guy that posted the info talked about some of the songs and elaborated on what some of them sound like.

    • Introduction
      the intro is just one verse, Kendrick. Game just talks in the beginning, Kendrick does a nice job, and BOOM Infrared
    • InfraRED
      he namedrops everyone on InfraRED but its still sick. InfraRED, ricky, and good bad ugly dont have hooks
    • Good, Bad, Ugly
      will haunt you
    • It Must Be Tough
      If he is looking for a Chart-topper, It Must Be Tough is the way to go
    • Dead People
      one of the most fucked up joints. It wasn't the traditional 16 bars verse 16 bars, he was all over and he was talking about Killing people! nonetheless, the song's sick. it sounds like Im Supposed to Die Tonight. He jacks 50's style on this
    • RED Nation
      its pretty long as you might have guessed. the title is misleading, the track is about how bloods have taken over america and you get different perspectives. Its more of a street single then a chart topper.
    • Never Gone
      that Lupe track is heat, its about their Legacy's
    • L.O.V.E.
      the people who are hardcore Game fans will really love.... L.O.V.E.! he wrote that **** from the heart, and it was really focused. Chris' vocals were dope
    • Cali Dream
      About his daughter, ending the album in similar way to The Doc with Like Father Like Son

    Several members on the message board asked him questions about what he thinks of the album itself, as opposed to individual tracks, as well as what songs he thinks should be singles. The following are quotes from the guy that posted the tracklist.
    Pharrell has the best tracks, and the one's where Game is solo are incredible.
    if i had to pick singles LOVE, it must be tough, and the drake track
    i was also played a track called "Lost", which was a bonus cut because it was too sad or something. but then it was on the hangover, but it was different lol. the beat had similar structure, but the one i heard was better
    it sounds like The documentary, DA, and Black Album blended in one
    i cant say much but i fuck with all 20 tracks, though some are better then others

    He also posted the tracklist again, giving each individual track a rating out of 5 this time.
    1. Intro f. Kendrick Lamar (Prod by Dr. Dre) 4/5
    2. Infra-RED (Prod. by Cool & Dre) 5/5
    3. Born In Tha Trap (Prod. by DJ Premier) 5/5
    4. Good Girl Gone Bad f. Drake (Prod. by Cool & Dre) 4.5/5
    5. Ricky (Prod. by DJ Khalil & ?uestlove) 5/5
    6. Good Bad Ugly (prod. by Hit-boy) 5/5
    7. Heavy Artillery f. Beanie Sigel & Rick Ross (prod. by Street Runner) 5/5
    8. It Must Be Tough f. Pharrell (prod. by The Neptunes) 5/5
    9. Mama Knows f. Nelly Furtado (prod. by The Neptunes) 5/5
    10. When My N**** Come Home f. Snoop Dogg (prod. by The Neptunes) 4.5/5
    11. Dead People (prod. by Dr. Dre) 5/5
    12. Roll My S*** f. Snoop Dogg (prod. by The Neptunes) 5/5
    13. The Town f. Big Boi (prod. by Mars) 4/5
    14. Dope f. Dr. Dre (prod. by Dr. Dre) 4/5
    15. L.O.V.E. f. Chris Brown (prod. by Timbaland) 5/5
    16. RED Nation f. Lil Wayne, B.O.B. & Wiz Khalifa (prod. by Cool & Dre) 4.5/5
    17. Never Gone f. Lupe Fiasco (prod. by Dr. Dre) 5/5
    18. REDemption f. E-40(prod. by Mars) 3/5
    19. Cali Dream f. Trey Songz (prod. by Mars) 5/5


    it sounds like im stanning but it was really that good. By comparison, there were 3 other writers with me, two of them thought perfect 10/10, and the other 8/10

    im like around a 9.3-9.5

    I'm passing all all of this on because it seems like the guy that posted it knows what he's talking about.

    In short...
    • The album has 19 tracks.
    • 5 of the tracks have Game on his own, without any features.
    • 14 of the tracks feature a guest verse/hook.
    • Dr. Dre produced 4 tracks and has a guest verse/hook on 1 of them.
    • The Neptunes produced 4 tracks and Pharrell has a guest verse/hook on 1 of them.
    • Cool and Dre produced 3 tracks.
    • Mars (of 1500 or Nothin') produced 3 tracks.
    • DJ Premier produced 1 track.
    • Snoop Dogg appears twice.

    you slate me for using thisizgame.com as a link to where i heard a rumor yet you use thisis50.com as a link to a rumor you heard:confused: thats all im saying bud.

    i remember reading a review of RED online on one of the hip hop sites about a year ago(think the link is posted here) but the person reviewing it said pretty much the exact same thing about the track dead people that it was like something of 50's massacare album, so there could be some truth to it but it could be some random blogger stirring the pot.

    im looking foward to this nelly furtado song remember hearing great things about that song but it looks the supposedly grammy award winning song with justin timberlake "aint no doubt about it" has been dropped if the tracklist is true.

    im hoping to hear dre rap on a track considering detox is hopefully just around the corner.

    Read my post. I mention that the tracklist was posted by someone "claiming" to be a writer from HHW and I went on to say "I doubt it's 100% accurate". I don't know if the guy really did hear it or not, there have been dozens of tracklists for this album appearing on message boards over the last few months and at the end of the post so, at the end of my last post, I said "I'm passing all of this on because it seems like the guy that posted it knows what he's talking about."

    Now, your post a few weeks ago said: "his album wont sound like this not if he's still on interscope which im hearing he isnt going to be much longer if he doesnt get release date." - and that was it. You didn't give any further information, you didn't elaborate, you didn't say where you heard it from and you didn't provide a link. I had to question your source several times before you posted a link to a random topic on a Game message board.

    Look at my post. I explain that the tracklist was posted and the person posting is only claiming to be a HHW writer, but I haven't seen any proof, therefore I can't be sure if it's accurate or not. I provide the link to the original post, allowing members here to see what I'm seeing and judge for themselves whether they think he could be real or not.

    I go on to post, in detail, his major points and descriptions of each song. I mention that I'm only posting this because the guy has given a lot of information, some of which I know to be accurate. A random post on ThisIs50 isn't a credible source (and I never claimed it was) but I said I would share it with the forum here as this appears to be, by far, the most accurate tracklist we've seen since the Complex review, based on information gathered from interviews with Game, Twitter, producers, guests and pictures.
    it looks the supposedly grammy award winning song with justin timberlake "aint no doubt about it" has been dropped if the tracklist is true.
    Ain't No Doubt About It leaked nearly a year ago and flopped. Why, out of all the songs that Games released over the last year, did you think it would be on the album?
    im hoping to hear dre rap on a track considering detox is hopefully just around the corner.
    Detox isn't around any corner. As of last night Dre is still recording for it.

You didn't give any further information, you didn't elaborate, you didn't say where you heard it from and you didn't provide a link. I had to question your source several times before you posted a link to a random topic on a Game message board.

    Look at my post. I explain that the tracklist was posted and the person posting is only claiming to be a HHW writer, but I haven't seen any proof, therefore I can't be sure if it's accurate or not. I provide the link to the original post, allowing members here to see what I'm seeing and judge for themselves whether they think he could be real or not.

    I go on to post, in detail, his major points and descriptions of each song. I mention that I'm only posting this because the guy has given a lot of information, some of which I know to be accurate. A random post on ThisIs50 isn't a credible source (and I never claimed it was) but I said I would share it with the forum here as this appears to be, by far, the most accurate tracklist we've seen since the Complex review, based on information gathered from interviews with Game, Twitter, producers, guests and pictures.

    claiming exactly for all you know that could be a 12 year old game fan writing that, its nothing to get all excited about we have heard countless track listings for the album over the few years its been delayed.

    iv lost count of how many tracklists iv seen for this album, i mean i could go on thisis50 claim to be a writer from hip hop weekly and make up a tracklist for red especially when the same tracks like ricky keep poppin up, that doesnt mean the guy knows what he is talking about especially when he goes to thisis50 rather than his own hip hop weekly site and it didnt pick up any light on allhiphop.com,rap radar etc etc big well known hip hop sites.

    so really think about it, if he really works for hip hop weekly it would be up on the front page there and not on out of all the hip hop websites thisis50.com, dont be so gullible.

    ye complex magazine claimed to have a rough version of the red album, it was posted on this very thread too, the links a bit messed up now its called after the red room mixtape they prob had to take it down but il post the link of it and the section on this thread too where its still intact, but my point its look a bit similar to the one the so-called hip hop weekly writer on thisis50 made up just changed a few of the songs names etc there a dime a dozen them tracklists on sites like thizisgame and thisis50.

    a few weeks ago prettyboy you only had to ask me once for a link in which i gave you. several times? are you making stuff up? go back and read it.

    the fact that you just posted a random topic from thisis50 about games red album tracklist from a so-called hip hop weekly writer for all we know that could of been you is no different to the link i posted from thizisgame about a rumor i heard.

    I also stated the rumors that i heard that game was leaving interscope a few months back were just rumors and nothing more so therefore could be considered also accurate or not, aswell as posting the link to prove i did not make it up.
    Ain't No Doubt About It leaked nearly a year ago and flopped. Why, out of all the songs that Games released over the last year, did you think it would be on the album?

    maybe because of the fact it was hyped up to be a grammy award winning song? :D: game going mental on his twitter about it, need i say anymore. what other songs do you want me to mention?
    Detox isn't around any corner. As of last night Dre is still recording for it.
    ye thats why i said hopefully just around the corner.:rolleyes:

    Are you seriously dragging this thread down to your level again? Such a fucking troll.

    Who said I was excited about it? It could be some random forum member making it up, I made that blatantly clear in my post. I said "I doubt it's 100% accurate."

    I guess we'll have to see how accurate it is.

    He never once mentioned the song on Twitter. The only time he referred to it was when he said he was in the studio one night and "Justin Timberlake walked in". Justin Timberlake tweeted something like "Just heard @thegames album, it's crazy". That's it.

    He talked about it a lot in interviews, but never on Twitter. Get your facts straight.

    You could mention Pushin' It, I'm The King, The Kill - all of which have been tipped to be singles? You know yourself Ain't No Doubt About It was scrapped a long time ago, you're just being a prat, no?
    ye thats why i said hopefully just around the corner.:rolleyes:
    I know you said "hopefully". I was just making it clear that it wasn't. Don't get your hopes up.

    I ignored his last couple of posts and just let them go but he just enjoys trolling the thread whenever he gets the chance. Going to put him on Ignore now...


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,213 ✭✭✭PrettyBoy


    The guy that posted the tracklist talked about a few more tracks earlier today. Again, the guy is only claiming to have heard these, but he goes into detail (ie. the Aaliyah sample used on the track with Dre) which makes me think he could be genuine, but I guess we can only speculate right now.
    • Good Girl, Bad Girl
      The Drake track was aimed for the ladies, but 3 solid verses and a great beat made it a great song
    • Dope
      dope track f. dre was dope haha, samples aaliyah's "Rock The Boat". Game & Dre go back and forth
    • Mama Knows
      Mama Knows- The Nelly Furtado track was dope, Dre did an intro, and i could have swore i heard the guy from Lost on there (K-Young?)

    He goes on to talk about Games writing skills.
    His pen game is crazy. All of his bars are on point. Even when they get generic, like when he talk about smoking, the bars are still good and so is the rapping

    But when he tells stories (G.B.U., Ricky) s**** over

    Good Bad Ugly is a track about him getting shot btw

    when I post or infact anyone does on this thread it doesnt nessacarly mean we are talking to you prettyboy:rolleyes:. my last few posts wernt aimed at you in paticular so you didnt ignore anything.:D

    in future just ignore all my post and threads because you get too emotional and stan like when someone says something you dont want to hear.

    if i want your opinion in the future il ask for it, otherwise stop crying, your putting me on ignore great that will leave me with the last word.
    Are you seriously dragging this thread down to your level again? Such a ****ing troll.

    a troll? you have one tiny bit of evidence in where i said a part of me done that in a completely different thread which has nothing to do with this thread or this conversation or this arguement so who's trolling now?

    yes you did make it clear as i did when i gave you my source which you failed to notice or more like ignored.

    the person who claims to be a hip hop weekly writer(even that dont mean sh*t thats a gossip site and not a very good one) is a complete game stan look at his profile on thisis50.com he is taking jabs at gunit and bigging up game every post no wonder you believe it :D. seriously go look at his profile he's like your twin blogger.

    there's no bringing it down to any level im just highlighting the fact you used thisis50 as a source which is the same as using thisisgame in which you slated me for, its just funny how once again you talk circles around yourself and come out the hypocrite.
    He never once mentioned the song on Twitter. The only time he referred to it was when he said he was in the studio one night and "Justin Timberlake walked in". Justin Timberlake tweeted something like "Just heard @thegames album, it's crazy". That's it.

    He talked about it a lot in interviews, but never on Twitter. Get your facts straight.

    You could mention Pushin' It, I'm The King, The Kill - all of which have been tipped to be singles? You know yourself Ain't No Doubt About It was scrapped a long time ago, you're just being a prat, no?

    thats the best you can come up with, you come across as real fanboy there do you memorize all game's twitter comments or something because he post on it all the time, i got interviews mixed up with twitter either way it was said so end off.

    maybe the fact they were shooting a video for aint no doubt about it in which no video was mentioned for pushin it (a ja rule leftover) im the king (a confirmed mixtape song) and the kill (a robbed pop song and confirmed mixtape song) so why would i mention them? i could of mentioned shake,krazy,it must of been me,big money which were all released on itunes as singles aswell as a video being made for shake.

    the reason i said aint no doubth about is because it had jt and pharrell on it aswell being tipped for a grammy by game himself and it was off the top of my head its not like i could of mentioned any succesfull single attempts anyway because they all were scrapped so either way you were going to argue no matter what song i mentioned.
    I know you said "hopefully". I was just making it clear that it wasn't. Don't get your hopes up.

    believe me after hearing i need a doctor my hopes are far from up, but you dont know for a fact that the album isn't around the corner anyway. when i say around the corner i didnt mean next week bud.

    I always take these album previews by guys with a pinch of salt, because reading above it's almost saying every track is "dope", and to be honest nothing from Game's work of the last 2 years leads me to suspect that this will be the case. Like any album there'll be good songs and bad songs, these previews make it out to be a classic. Can only be let down then.
