The Game is Lame, Needs More People



I hate giving any kind of publicity to degenerates but sometimes people need to be called out. When it comes to bad diss tracks that insult my beloved Beyonce (oh yes, I'm a Stan), and one of my favorite emcees, Jay-Z (I'm reserved in my Stannery), by wack artists, I just can't take it. Enter The Game.

When The Game was beefing with 50 Cent, it was tolerable not because people were 100% in his corner, but because it was interesting to watch someone successfully oppose 50--even if it was only moderately successful. If 50 Cent really wanted to shut Game down career-wise, then it would have happened, but somewhere in 50's heart, he felt sorry for him (true story, I heard it from 50's mouth) and therefore, let him be--in all his stupidity.

50 understood that The Game is like a child. If you ignore kids long enough, they will do something extreme to get your attention and you can either indulge or let it be. Hence, I'm curious to see whether Jay-Z will make a move (or not) in response to Game's diss track over the "D.O.A." beat. I don't know if something personal happened between Jay and The Game that prompted this, or whether The Game is just trying to generate a buzz to segue into a comeback, but the track is pretty bad. Not just the music, but the concept of beefing with Jigga is like a White girl with a booty--the novelty has worn off. He would have had better luck at creating more buzz by throwing shots at, and being ethered by Drake.

I don't know why his advisers didn't forewarn him, but throwing shots at Jay-Z at this point is beyond unoriginal, and irrelevant as hip-hop evolves (It's like Canibus vs. LL Cool J). Even worse, Game took the corniness five steps further by CLICK HERE for more.

I agree.

I just listened to it. LOL. How sad. What makes matters worse is Jay-Z said "I ain't talkin about gossip, I ain't talkin bout Game" on the supposed Blueprint 3 Intro at Vegas some weeks ago. The audio is out there. I didn't know he was referring to dude and then when it was mentioned, I didn't think it was a diss.

Rappers are too sensitive nowadays.

Not sure if I like that reference to Canibus vs. LL...but aside from that, you're on point as always.

The only career 50 cent should be ending is his own.

and white girls with booty will never get old.
