    lines like 'and I know the government administer aids' and 'i treat the cash like the government treats aids, I wont be satisfied til all my n----s get it' really really annoy me.

    he's an egomaniac, and often acts like a douche, but at the same time, it is entertaining to me.

    it's hard to criticize much of his music tbh. he's had some weak moments (Drunk and Hot Girls, Big Brother, some of the lyrics on Yeezus), but overall he has one of the most consistent discographies out there...that's not stanning, that's just what it is.

    He is really insecure about that South Park episode. I never really understood that. I guess because it's a question of his sexuality compared to SNL's mockery of him.

    He's just an egomaniac and very sensitive (possibly a narcissist). He doesn't like any kind of criticism at all.

    that is very untrue. He knows how ridiculous he sounds. They literally made a joke about him running up on stage about 4 different times. They do tons of skits that make fun of him and Kim. It's certain things that set him off, but he defiantly knows how to be a good sport. He's kind of like a ticking time bomb.

    The only criticism I can think of is that... he's too much of a God.

    ending blame game with a 3 minutes clip of chris rock wtf.. Can someone explain why? I mean I understand the concept but why was it a good idea?
    and CAN WE GET MUCH HIGHAAA - thing on dark fantasy, love that song and the beat is one of the greatest hip hop beat ever but why did he feel the need to ruin two incredible songs

    I actually agree, the 'can we get much higherrr' was repeated too much in the song.

    All of the lights is classic though. sounds f---ing great in concert too.

    Oh yeah crack music has a dope beat but the song is pretty bad overall. Sucks that it has to be right in the middle of an album as good as Late Registration.

    I can only imagine how bad Game's verse was if he cut it.

    The original version was on Game's Ghost Unit mixtape. Not a horrible verse but I can see why it was cut.

    Didn't know this existed, but this is definitely even worse than the original. It sounds like Game just looped the first part of the instrumental outro and did a verse over it. Too much going on with his vocals combined with the constant "la-la"s.

    He's closer to Steve Jobs than Basquit.
    He isn't remotely aware of that.
    His fans are insufferable.
    His antics are TMZ garbage.
    He thinks the government is responsible for AIDs.
    He's overextended himself into fashion where he's not as very talented as he thinks he is.
    His music has become too cherished by its audience to criticize (ie The Beatles etc).
    He unilaterally receives credit for his entire team and the influences that he won't acknowledge.
    He made a hoe a house wife.
    His child's name is a pun.
    He has a Napoleon complex.
    He lost his girl to His ex got Wiz's face tattooed on her arm.

    Yeah I hadn't heard it in years but listening to it just now, and that's a pretty bad verse. Definitely sounds like mixtape material. The DJ shout-outs are so horribly placed that it sounds like Game says "I'd f--- DJ Skee too".

    The version that made Late Registration is not bad, but did become one of my few least played songs from the album. The hook is just way too repetitive and not very good to begin with.

    Great post, I crossed out the ones I disagree with though. The fashion thing remains to be seen, and the Kanye and Amber situation had nothing to do with Wiz as far as I'm aware.

    Otherwise 10/10

    i don't think his music is "too cherished to criticize" at all tbh, if anything, the farther in his career he gets, the polarizing the reactions to his music become
