Just listened to the first disc, and its a solid album. Started off kinda slow (not really ? with step up, don't trip, and hashtag), but the 2nd half of the album is dope af.
Favorite tracks are:
Doc 2
Dedicated
On Me
? You Aint ?
Pretty much any song on the 2nd half of the album lol
-
? is ass n not even bootleg worthy
-
What song were those dudes who rolled up on game in that skit playing? (2nd disk, first track)

Lol...Game bodied it... "Red cup full of Bet you can't ? it"
I never doubted game even during his creative downtime..Everybody has their burnout periods where creativity may nosedive for a minute...
Game blessed hip hop
Finally my G
It's not a masterpiece but I loved hashtag... Caught me off guard in a good way.
And yeh that bar "red cup full of bet you can't ? it" for some reason stands out for me...
Anyone else think that jelly roll sounds like mr meeseeks in this track -
? sounded like lil jon to me
-
This ? game spazzed on "? anyway"
-
Man 2.5 is amazing, definitely contender for aoty.
-
Game shot himself in the foot with all of the features though. That will hinder him from performing the album effectively on tour.
-
What's Brackin ? ?
Finally giving this a listen -
From Dr. Dre to Ice Cube, Eazy was always able to recognize talent. Black Eyed Peas frontman will.i.am consistently pays homage to Eazy, who signed his first group, The ATBANN Klann, to Ruthless Records. Although their album was never released, after Eazy’s death, will took the game he learned from his mentor and proceeded to build his own empire with B.E.P.
I never knew that Eazy was the person that basically found Will.i.am -

Never knew that. Crazy it took an album from The Game to help me find better respect for Will.i.am. The album is Game at his best, you can tell he put his heart & soul into this as compared to his last few albums. Reminds me of Rae and OB4CL2. He had some dissapointing albums for years before he buckled down and put that out. Made Jays Blueprint 3 look more ass by comparison (they dropped the same day).

Just giving disc 1 a spin.. Couple songs in.. This ? sounds great.. Be back later with my thoughts..
-
every song i heard i liked.
-
? is ass
-
Great double album, Game really put effort into this.
-
...on first listen, this is a pretty good album. There's a great album in there, if you, ya know, do what you should do with 90% of double disc albums and chop it down to 1 disc of the best songs. Eventually I'll probably take the best 12 to 15 songs and just bump that....
And here it is. My revised album with just my favorites that I've been playing.
1.On me
2.Step up
3.Don't trip
4.Dollar and a dream
5.Made in America
6.LA
7. Crenshaw/808s and coke
8.Gang bang anyway
9.The Ghetto
10.Adam
11.Outside
12.Up on the wall
13.My flag
14.Moment of Violence
15.Life
Not saying the songs I left off are wack, the whole thing is listenable. But it's better this way. I don't need 20 more decent Game songs. This bangs start to finish.

I wasn't restricting myself to 15 by the way, I just went through and took the ones I really ? with and it just so happens to be exactly what I thought it was gonna be. One disc of material. -
did dre only produce the title track with premo??? and I thought Just Blaze was producing on this. Great 2 disc album though
