    The Documentary is classic.
    After 20 years still bumpin' my head.
    Scott Storch, Dr. Dre and 50 Cent helped to release this classic.

    Games early album run was insane as well as his mixtape run. The beef with G Unit was legendary and one of my fondest memories bring a teenager and seeing that all pan out in real time. That and the Em/Ja/Benzino beef.

    Such a shame the guy fell off so hard. Comparable to Kanye's fall off.

    Some days Game is still in my Top 10 purely for the first few albums and mixtapes.

    Also, a great example of how you can win the battle but still lose the war.

    I stole this cd from a store when i was in 7th grade. Good times.
    I returned it later because I felt guilty, but I listened the h--- out of it in the meantime.

    His first and 2nd album get brought up for good reasons. But I think L.A.X. was great and the Red Album deserves credit too.

    He fell off hard after Doc 2.5.

    Documentary 10/10
    Doctors Advocate - 9.5/10
    LAX - 7.5/10
    The RED Album - 6/10
    Jesus Piece - 5/10
    Documentary 2 - 8/10
    Documentary 2.5 - 8.5/10
    1992 - 7.5/10
    Born 2 Rap - 3/10
    Drillmatic Heart Vs Mind - 4/10

    Yeah, the fall off was crazy on this one. But I'll always check out his new stuff and hoping for good things with the Doc 3.

    I don't think he's ever released a BAD mixtape though has he? Some were absolute classics and clearly better than others but nothing bad.

    Also, that Block Wars soundtrack was absolute flames.

    Last two were really boring, I believe It’s an age thing. He’s just a boring grown man now.

    Hope I’m wrong and Doc 3 will be good tho
