Game - 400 Bars [Freestyle]
Artist: Game
Producer: Just Blaze
Album: DJ Drama Presents: Red Room
Label: Aftermath/Geffen/Interscope
If you’re gonna need to use the bathroom, you may want to take care of that now. And if you’re listening on headphones, find a comfortable spot to sit, because you’re going to be there for quite a while. Ready? Good. Clocking in at a whopping 20 minutes (which I’m going to guess is a DJBooth record), new freestyle and inaugural mixtape leak 400 Bars could be viewed as a little excessive – then again, Game does have a lot to make up for. Over the wistful, soul-sampled Just Blaze beat that backed Jay Electronica‘s Booth-acclaimed Exhibit C, the Left Coast heavyweight empties out his rhyme book, spitting extensively about his cars, his mic skills, his beef with G-Unit, and pretty much everything else under the sun. Though its epic length may scare off the faint of heart, this freestyle succeeds in proving that Game has lyrics for days (and days, and days). Craving even more? Red Room is set to drop “soon,” paving the way for the June 15, release of his R.E.D. Album.

400 bars over 4-5 different beats, creatively mixed in the background to corespondent with topics Game raps about would have been utterly dope. Yet another freestyle over that damn "Exhibit C" beat by Just Blaze, however, falls short. Yes, its impressively long... but who is going to sit through the entire thing?
I gave this 7 minutes and then skipped to the end. Beat me, I dare you.

I actually had no problem sitting through the whole thing. From 100 - 300 Bars are classics and this one comes just as close. This is more like it from Game. Anybody else hear that Gunit diss?

I think this is a good freestyle he did and is quite clever. I could make it through the whole song, but not worth the rotation as only certain parts I liked. I don't wanna hear about everything game says though toooo long.

I feel that this is really good, but i can't listen to all of it at one time. I got to about nine minutes and almost killed myself. Maybe I just have a low attention span, but in moderation and a few different listens, this is good.

Definitely a step up from Game's previous features but there was no way I was going to sit through the whole track. (I made it 4 minutes Z; you must have the patience of a saint)
This is a solid freestyle but nothing to restore my faith in Game. |

As soon as I saw the title, I knew I better get comfortable. 300 Bars and Runnin is one of my favorite tracks period. Game went so hard on that one and you could just hear the anger in his voice and he had some of the illest verses on that one. Not to mention it sampled so many damn songs that it felt fresh for the entire 14+ minutes. I can listen to it as I am working out and not even realize that its only one song, and when its over I want more.
Now to this one. Just listening to this it doesn't have to same edge as 300 Bars. I know Game has a lot going on but I feel like when he spit 300 he had so much more to talk about. And when you have less to talk about, and want to throw an extra 100 bars on a song, that's a stretch. I am six minutes in and just not feeling it. I don't know if Game is trying to prove something here but it just feels to forced. Ok now that I got all that out of me, damn, Game still has it. Yea I just spent a good minute saying how it isn't right, but still, to be able to go 20 minutes deep is bananas. I wish there was more than one beat on this, because Game spits some classic lines and does it with the rough style he is known for. This one won't make it to my Ipod, mainly because its just too much song for me to handle at once, but still, Game has set the bar high again. Game, please don't go to 500 Bars, I don't have 25 minutes to spare listening to one song. Anything less than 4 stars doesn't seem fair to Game. |

After 9 minutes, I was done.
Game just dosen't hold my attention like other rappers. Nas, Busta Rhymes or Andre 3000 spitting for that long would of still had me wanting more but Game is only good at time than just gets boring. It was the Exhibit C beat that had me listening so long not him. |

"nascar game, why the F would i stall".
uhh maybe cause 20 minutes is overkill lol idk but i feel this is kinda forced aswell its just not edgy especially the beat to start it off sounds too soft on the drum play some synth type stuff. but theres no doubt this guy has words stored in his head ready and lined up cause he comes with some intricate rythem and words. this song just for the fact of their bieng 400 bars deserves a baner status because initself its a feat with how much its not drummed down to an extent. "but come too cali, you a moose in some quick sand" yall gotta realize how hard that is to come up with. this deserves to be in the classics folder because its epic as in hes able to spit continues legit good bars so thats what it gets from me but it aint gettin om my mp3 player but i guess not what it was meant for in the first place. and yes dj-z i listened to the whole track.....minus 3 minutes in the middle |

I guess that means he's gonna be ready for the big drop on June 15. After this nice freestyle and a few of the rumors I will def have to go out and get my copy of the R.E.D. album. As for 400 bars that's WAY too much. It gets drawn out after maybe 3 or 4 minutes. The beat is still incredibly sick. |

Its definately a commitment to listen to the whole track (props to DJ Baer). I got to around the 10 minute mark and changed songs.
From what I heard, Game put in a good effort on the mic. Its a impressive effort to go 400 bars, props to Game for doing it I would of prefered to of heard this freestyle over some different production, because no one will compete with the original in terms of quality. 3.5 |

Just when I think it's over, he continues to spit. For a freestyle, Game lyrically just does not meet my expectations of what he used to be. The original 300 was better IMO.
This song fails in the fact that it's the same beat for 20 minutes. 20 MINUTES! My attention span started to fade at about 7 minutes in. Game can spit, but at least on the 300 bars freestyle the beat switched up. This is good, but it isn't amazing. |

I listened to the whole thing while doing some work. No, I did not have a seizure because of it.
It seems like everything's been said, but that beat's unbearable by the time you get to the end. I just couldn't avoid hearing that guy singing in the background over and over again. As for the verses...let's just say that if you throw enough darts at the board, you're bound to hit the bullseye a couple of times. I'll give him two stars for effort, but the production and excessiveness of it all aren't worth your time, and it's not even good background music. Skip it. |

first of a big hahahaha to " im sittin PHAT like Precious" that girl is really feeling the bitchassness of fame. i really enjoyed Jay Electonica's joint and i really dint want anyone to spoil it for me even the 'great' Game.
but i was well nicely surprised. Game was getting a lot things of his chest on this joint. its almost like hes speaking to me and trying to make me understand his life , his struggles and well beef Game does have lines for days but really was a joint that is a whole album in one reaaly necessary. i don think so. he should have just tried to put all his thoughts into 5 minutes or less. ya its impressive and all that he did 400 bars but i cant listen to all of it. you know its good but it just gets tiring and boring after a while its a 3.5 |

Well...I made it 20 whole minutes...that song is the damn energizer bunny that thing would never end. Surprisingly Game went hard for the WHOLE 400 bars. That in itself is deserving of a four star.
Game doesn't seem to have as much to say on here as he did on 300 bars. Then again he definitely says A LOT. Come on Game spit for 20 minutes straight the least ya'll can do is listen to the whole thing. |

I think some of y'all are rating this higher just because we're Game fans. You say you don't really like it, but then your rating is "In Rotation?" I say let your ears vote, not your heart..
I'm not gonna lie, I downloaded this the second that Game put this up on his Twitter. I don't know.. it left me feeling underwhelmed. If you're going to make a 20 minute song, then you should make it completely worth it. Game's flow was alright, but I wasn't falling over myself by anything he said. That Exhibit C beat has been a bit overdone too. But then I again, this IS a mixtape track. So after 20 minutes of my time and all I can really say is "Meh," I'm still looking forward to the R.E.D. Album lol Also, is anyone else REALLY tired of the G-Unit/Game beef (on both sides)? |

Just the fact that Game can write and rap for 20 minutes on one track is impressive in it's own, but I couldn't ever listen to 20 minutes of the same beat unless I fell asleep with my headphones on. But I listened to a good chunk of this song and Game's lyrics are definately on point and like I mention on yesterday's feature he always beings the energy and comes hard everytime. I wish this would have been a compilation of different tracks minus Exhibit C because every rapper and their moms has rapped over this. Bun B even refused to rap to this beat on his "No Mixtape" saying that "time to put this @*#$! to rest...soon we gonna have Exhibit FFF in a minute" I'm a Game fan regardless and I respect him for spitting 20 minutes about different topics.

Z, I listened to the entire song.
This track is 5 minutes longer than 300 Bars N Runnin’. Wow!! This is the Game that I love! He’s my favorite mainstream artist, but didn’t he say that he was done with all of his beefing? I don’t know, maybe he feels that’s the only way he can be relevant or something. Game should just start all over from scratch with the R.E.D. album, because every single track I’ve heard off of that album are weak. Wasn’t Premo suppose to produce a track or two for this album? That would be amazing! CLASSIC! |

I really liked the mention of all the mainstream heavyweights and Games comparisons of how he does his thing and isn't among the names because of it. Wayne, Drake, T.I., ect. At least that's what I took from that line. Made it all 20 but listened to maybe 10 or so of it. The remaining time I read the comments here and tried unsuccessfully to find some lyrics. His lack of material is an issue, but the material he does have he plays out very well. Was interesting to hear about his past relationships with G-Unit.

I think The Game's been listening to our responses lately. This is what I like to hear. West Coast Nas ish, granted its not as deep and some of his stuff, but this is a 20 minute freestyle. I wish he really meant "@*#$! the plaques, I do it for the music." Game has faded from my number 3 favorite rapper with his recent work, but this rekindles my hope for his future.
He shoots hard at 50 around 6:00. Shout out to NPHC around 13:00 Another 50 shot around 15:40 Actually G-Unit shots over the whole 16th minute. "The beef forever lives" Strong effort from The Game. I wonder if this will inspire more artists to do the same. Needless to say, I'll be giving this beat a rest for a LONG time. |

Yes he did it over the same Exhibit C beat, which I didn't like much either but its still goin down as a nice accomplishment for Game. If Game does decide to go for 500 Bars, I'm just hoping there will be some beat change ups. I won't be listening to this a week from now
