Game's name dropping: Does it take away from his music?

[damobb2deep]

I think ppl got the whole namedropping thing confused.

When a name is a reference/punchline or metaphor to something then it's not really namedropping, at least the way the detractors think of.

Namedrop to me is when he drops random names who really doesn't have anything to do with what he's rapping about or the content of the song.

That's where you can compare it to other MC's like Eminem etc.

ex.

Song about a black people

Namedrop: "Shoutout to that nigga Weezy, fightin over a pair of Yeezys" type of shit which makes his lyrics sound all over the place and not really following the content, which shows a lack of lyricism. He just come off like a rappin commercial doing ads for other rappers and brands.

The fact that he constantly does is another bad part. Mimmicking other niggas flow and style is another thing.

Y'all niggas know all the brands and shoe names he raps about is for sponsor reasons right? Even Rolex Records isn't something he just does it's cuz they prolly invested a part or get a part for trademark reasons, same thing with Maybach and MMG.

Y'all really gonna sit here and say that Eminem, Jay-Z, Nas, Ross and all the niggas y'all mention does this constantly? Some of y'all are in denial. Jay-Z has taken a few lyrics but y'all gonna act like it's in 90% of his discography? I wouldn't even say it's 3%. The rest of Jay-Z's lyrics are biten or borrowing other niggas flows/style.

Game however? Well..

but unlike game i think ross does it 2 be cool wit everybody on some " i want yall 2 like me" type shyt

you also think there's nothing wrong with suckin a dick for 10k
