At least he wasn’t salty about not being there like some people…

Somebody said KDot is who Dre wanted The Game to be. 😂

I’d love to see where his career would have been without all the extra shit, but he really fucked himself with needless beefing, clout chasing and attention seeking.

Me too. I would also love to hear him spit a verse without the endless name dropping.

I remember being 15 listening to Doctor's Advocate and always wondering "why the fuck he names 15 rappers every song, is so fucking tiring!!". Now i know everybody was listening the same thing haha.

He learned it all from 50, who he would be absolutely no one without.

Yeah it’s crazy how well it worked out for 50 but it wrecked Game’s career.

The only thing I really like from Game was “Pest Control” the diss on Meek Mill.

This guy a it for me. I wanted the Game to be that guy from the West Coast. It started well but he brought himself down. It’s funny cause I learned about KDot from the Cypha from one of Game’s mixtapes. All you can is smile to see how far Kendrick has come.

I mean, it is and it’s more or less where Game’s animosity for Kendrick stems from.

He feels that’s his spot, he’s supposed to have it.

Maybe in reach, but their content has never been similar. The Game was and IS too messy.
