What does any of this have to do with how he's been moving in present day or the last decade? I haven't seen anyone trying to erase his history or contributions. It seems like you're just creating imaginary strawman arguments. The majority of people have been calling him out for all of his clown ass antics over the years shyttin' on his own legacy.
I shyt on Game for the buffoonery. I just explained why the west coast can never get him truly out of the conversation in good conscience. So it doesn't matter if he was at a certain show or not just like it doesn't matter if Snoop was there. Game did a lot for his city, can't take that away from him. The only other rapper that I can think of that did as much is Gucci Mane.

Yea, this forum got a weird love for game. Nobody cares about that west coast crashout who has beefed and embarrassed himself out the industry. I’m glad that loser wasn’t there


He’s such an incredibly talented rapper. If you have talent, despite the bullshyt you self inflict, there will always be SOMEBODY who fukks with you.


Also it can’t go unnoticed that Game held the West down for dolo in a mainstream sense for at least half a decade, maybe more. Before Nip hit it semi-big. Before Kendrick became a supernova. Before TDE. Before Hit-Boy. There was Game.


This doesn’t take away from the fact that he’s a cornball it just provides context for why people still fukk with him. Hell people still fukk with Kanye and he’s a full blown Nazi!

Yall forget the West Coast was completely dead outside of Game and legacy artists? No label gave a fukk about an LA rapper. For example Bishop Lamont was talented and under Dr. Dre, but it wasn't happening. T.I, Wayne, Jeezy and Kanye had the sound the labels wanted, not no South Central LA.

That Jay Rock single came out in 2007 when he was a nobody. Game sold 350k first week in 2006 and 230k in 2008. He was one of the biggest artists in the whole rap game putting on randoms from LA hoods and giving them a large platform. Sure, the fact is that KDot eventually had to change his name to Kendrick Lamar and Jay Rock had to sign to Tech N9ne to make it big, but I'm sure both of them acknowledge these early beginnings as very important.

Even as a Game hater it's impossible to deny his impact or importance. He did big shyt for the west coast. Which is why he should be embarrassed for riding with Drake. I don't care if they're good friends...at the very least he could have simply not said shyt. Especially given all the respect Kendrick has shown him for over a decade at this point.

To y’all outsiders. Game wasn’t some savior to the west coast, at least not the whole of Cali, bay had its own renaissance during his run and was not on his nuts, I’m sure LA fukked with him tho. Dude rode the g unit wave and declined from there popularity wise, let’s not erase what 50 and Dre did for him more than he did for himself.

As for talented, there’s tons of talented rappers, game ain’t never been heavy in my rotation outside his first album so you ain’t gonna find me fanning out over him or acting like I wouldn’t have heard of other LA artists without him giving them a feature or taking them on tour. He tanked the careers of plenty artists on his label so he’s no kingmaker

Not to spoil the fun, but Ab Soul tried to commit suicide a couple of years ago and jumped off the freeway overpass. That’s why he has mobility issues.




That’s what this video is about.


Soul going more blind year by year too

His ex girl killed herself jumping off a tower or something he made a song for her
