Game - I'm the King
Artist: Game
Producer: 1500 or Nuthin
Album: Purp & Patron Mixtape
Label: Aftermath/Geffen/Interscope
While there was a day when Game was arguably the young king of the west coast, that day is no more. With his R.E.D. Album seemingly stuck in limbo and consistently average ratings from the Booth, it’s fair to wonder if Jayceon is still hip-hop royalty. Still, there’s nothing like speaking truth to power, so as a reminder of his courtly pedigree Game has unleashed the smoothly riding I’m the King. With production team 1500 or Nuthin supplying a synth drenched beat that sounds like the audio equivalent of codeine and ‘Tussin, Game is at his most mellow here, delivering bar after bar of relaxed flows, and even singing a few “la la la”s for good measure while he’s at it. It’s certainly not the kind of cut that demands attention, but it might be just the thing to have fans hopping back in Game’s lowrider and cruising the streets of L.A. alongside the man once again (metaphorically speaking). Either way, fans can expect to get intoxicated with Game when his Purp & Patron mixtape, hosted by Funk Flex and DJ Skee, hits the internets sometime soon.

Game, you're killing me brother. Seriously. The production work by 1500 is simple yet catchy, but your delivery here sounds like you don't care about making music anymore. If you're the "The King," and I think T.I. might have something to say about that, I'd assume that you'd want us all to know about it. Based on this record, I am not convinced. Plus, the uncredited hook singer vocals are just a waste. I hope he figures sh*t out... and fast. Time is no longer on Game's side.

This really sounds... lazy. Thats all. It looks like he was just bored and threw some crap together, and threw it out there. There is nothing in this that even beings to say "hey look at me". The only good in this is the catchy production from 1500.

SMH! Why does he keep recording or better yet, why does no one tell him that he's fell off? I'm done giving his music a chance. Not only don't I like his music but as a person he's totally pissed me off. At least he had a good three or four years, give or take. R.I.P.

Not sure what happened to Game. He finally got Dre back on his side and he just fell off. I wish someone had the balls to get him on an interview and question him about this consistent lack of quality. There's no way a man falls off this hard without reason.

I've been bumpin this all day. The production is hot, though it sounds a bit unmastered. The "heeeyyyy" part sounds like some old song. Pretty catchy tune.

The thing about Game (IMO) is that he knows he can put out good music just making westcoast inspired type bangers. But it seems to me that he doesn't want to be labeled as a one dimensional type of rapper, and although all of these attempts at branching out are very hit or miss I'll be the first to give him his props for trying. As for this track I enjoyed everything about it other than the lame chorus. 3.5 ( Don't do this often but I'm rounding down)

Compared to his "Documentary" days, this doesn't come close to stacking up. But I've gotta say after a few listens I am a huge fan of this track. Game's flow is so damn catchy (especially on the 2nd verse with the West coast sound) and that hook, while simple, is really addictive. I'm taking this one to a 4 star, but I see that I'm in the minority here.
If people aren't happy with this record, he dropped another one today called "Stop" with Rick Ross and Khaled. I have a feeling it will get a way better reception. |

I REALLY HOPE THIS IS NOT THE LEAD SINGLE TO R.E.D ALBUM AS IS RUMOURED ITS A NICE MELLLOW TRACK BUT THIS IS NOT GAME!!!HIS STYE IS BEING INFLUENCED BY TOO MANY RAPPERS WHO ARE SETTING THE BAR TOO LOW THAT HIS STYLE SOUNDS MORE LIKE WAKKA FLACKA GAME THEN THE WEST COAST KING..THE BEAT IS A BANGER BUT THE HOOK NEEDED TO BE DONE BY SOMEONE ELSE VERSES ARE TIGHT BUT NOT AS LYRICAL AS CAN BE I GIVE THIS A PASS BUT GAME NEEDS TO COME HARDER!!!

Game can still throw down some ill rhymes when he's properly motivated - his verse on that new Ghostface album was nice - but for some reason he just doesn't sound motivated lately. I have to agree - there's a thin line between dropping a mellow flow and sounded like you don't care, and he's definitely walking that line.

Its a lazy attempt at a track especially from a rapper of Games quality. BUT, who smokes and moves about like you chugged a 5 hour energy drink.........No one. So in the vein of chronic influenced tracks this is a banger.
Seriously guys it sounds better on the second listen. I guess all expectations are gone then. |

I hated this at first cuz it's not the Game I'm used to and love. Once I got past that, I was able to really enjoy this song. It's like he's taking a Wiz K-esque detour with his career following all that terrible material. I still have faith that we'll hear the real The Game sometime... The Documentary is SO GOOD...

I like the beat but I think it could be developed more. The beat's chill enough for me to listen to this and not focus on the weak rhymes comin' from Game. Hopefully he get's the needle out his arm soon and gets motivated. There's too much talent out west for him to be so lazy!
