its all gud i still got a lot to learn too
I used to dislike game as well, but then I started to listen to his music and it's actually not bad, now he's one of my favorate, after all he's respected by people like Nas,Ice Cube, and I love all the stuff he did Just Blaze and Kanye west cos they are two of my favorate producers, and one of his new songs "dope boys" has got travis baker playin live drums on dat, just by those points I would say I respect the game for his music. Lota ppl say he's fake but I don't really care, he's got skills, dats all.

Not even homie.....The Game has some good shit.Dont let people change your mind about him or any other artist.Just that sometimes people dont like some artist just because they aint "underground", Thinking every "underground" artist is dope, And all the commercial artist's are wack just cause their commercial.Which is not true at all.

It has nothing to do with "underground".

This thread asked for the greatest MC's OF ALL TIME. The Games' catalog of music has not been fully constructed yet. Also (it's not his fault) his music has not been proven to stand the test of time.
Greatest Of All Time is a very rough question to answer, as was mentioned: it's all about opinion.

I was just a little shocked that The Game was mentioned. It's a rather bold statement and doesn't deserve negative criticism (my bad), but it surely deserves some questioning. The main reason being that (I believe) this was the 1st time he has been mentioned in the thread.

Reach posted his top 5 and The Game really stood out to me. I haven't listened to his music....Thats my ignorance. But I also never knew or heard that he was of the GOAT status.

For the most part, most of the artists mentioned by people on this thread would not be considered "underground" artists. Most are shout outs to the people that helped contribute to as well as define the hip hop genre. My reaction was (out of ignorance I suppose) WTF because I was unaware that The Game was of this caliber.
