Hip-Hop Bull

Man, rappers are so untrustworthy. I was (grudgingly) watching MTV a couple days ago and The Game was on there (looking uncomfortable as hell I might add) and the host asked him something to the extent of: "I heard [LAX] is going to be your last album. Or rumors..." Game immediately quipped, "It IS going to be my last album." But then, I go thru my Yahoo email account and THIS pops up: "Game Says "L.A.X." Won't Be Last Album"

This would, ya know, in turn suggest that he would be "retiring." Seems his cover is now blown. These emcee's, and those who claim to be, crack me up with these gimmicks to amplify the urgency of their releases. Of course, you almost have to in this day in age when record sales, in terms of CD's, are down - way down. But I also read that Vinyl sales are up!

But as for the game, that what his loud ass GETS! This fool game INTO the game, thinkin' he's RUNNIN' the game. This rookie stepped on one too many toes and now he's an orphan. The root of his cockiness, the connection with him and Dr. Dre, is the result of his over-zealous claims. He TALKS too much. But, I must admit, his first album was in HEAVY rotation. He sounds good with Dr. Dre's beats. In fact, he kinda sounds like DR. DRE. haha Dre's one of my favorite producers so it could have been fart noises the whole time. As long as those beats are banging, I'm GOOD.
