Against all odds, hip-hop’s self-proclaimed MVP The Game has risen like a Phoenix from the flames thanks to his latest LP. Not worried about what any other artist, fan or critic thinks, The Game’s approach to the 'Doctor’s Advocate' is similar to one of a musical genius.
Hot hooks, heavy spitting and angry subject matters are all on display with this release. Whether it’s reppin’ his place of residence ('Compton'), getting shit off his chest ('Da Shit') or standing side by side with a living legend ('Why You Hate The Game' featuring Nas), the ex-G-Unit affiliate doesn’t at any point repeat an already sampled concept. The more you listen to it the more breathtaking it becomes. The Swizz Beatz produced 'Scream On ‘Em' triggers the aggressive sector of the brain, as does the Daz & Kurupt featured 'Bang', but there’s definitely something for everybody. Even Kanye West (minus his ego) makes an appearance (on the project’s only weak cut, 'Wouldn’t Get Far'). The album’s title track stands out as one of the best, and once you’re done listening to it there’s a 99% chance that you’ll rewind it and be like, 'Wow!' The Game’s musical achievements this time around measure up much more than they did when he dropped his debut 'The Documentary'.
Whether you agree or disagree is entirely up to the individual, but with cuts like the Nate Dogg-assisted 'Too Much' blessing the already hot tracklisting it can’t fail. Hate it or love it, The Game’s on top!
