Game Breaks Down Every Track On “The R.E.D. Album”

    With his latest release The R.E.D. Album finally in stores, Game recently chopped it up with Billboard.com’s The Juice to break down the entire LP track by track. Of the highlights, he touches on “Martians vs. Goblins” featuring Lil Wayne and Tyler, The Creator and “Drug Test” featuring Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg and Sly.

    “‘Drug Test’ is a great Western smash,” he said. “Anytime you can get Dr. Dre and Snoop on the same record, with yourself, if you are indeed legendary or almost legendary West Coast Hip Hop figure, that’s big. So getting it in with them was nothing but a dream.”

    He also explained how album standout “Martians vs. Goblins” came to be, stating how the track’s trio has much in common.

    Weird, funny, crazy and a little out of pocket. I called it ‘Martians vs. Goblins’ because me and Weezy have been saying that we were Martians as long as I’ve known him. And then on the song, he says, ‘What’s a goon to a goblin?’ And I was like, ‘Maybe he’s not a Martian no more. He’s calling himself a goblin.’ So then Tyler comes out with an album called Goblin and I just wanted to pit all of us up against each other and kind of mix it in.”

    1. Born in the trap, Mama knows, All i know, Martians vs Goblins, The City, Good girls go bad >>> classic material

    2. if only nelly wasnt on the hook for mama knows, sik beat and games flo is nice as fuk

      id say the red album is games 3rd best lp behind documentary and doctors advocate

      did game say he didnt like pot of gold???
      hahahahahahahahaha fuk that track

      1. It’s called payin homage. If you listen to the song, it does have a nas flava to it. Granted game ain’t nas, but the song is still fire, and he did hold his own, like he said.

      1. How you gone say it’s a classic, then give people a link for a “free” download. Your are the reason the rap game struggles. You supposed to buy classic albums, not pirate them. You should be ashamed. Support the Art-Form. Only Pirate Bullshit like, Gucci, Lil’ B, Waka Flocka, & Soulja Boy. #GetTheFuckOuttaHere

    3. lol the 2 songs for women. I hated those songs and i replaced them with “infrared” and “bang along”. Mario and Lloyd sounded like girls. Can’t believe game didnt like “dreams”. One of my favs. “pot of gold” was alrite compared 2 “hello” and “all the way gone”.

    4. I wish more rappers did this. Regardless of what you may think of Game, you can’t deny he’s pretty accessible and will talk about pretty much anything you ask him about

    5. born in the trap, the city, mama knows, good girls go bad are the songs i really liked….i wouldnt call this a classic cause hello, all the way gone, pot of gold, and paramedic are really bad imo

      1. hello is actually one of my fav track, mainstream rnb rap shit..i can bump it in my ride..to smooth shit out haha

    6. thats not ghostface killah’s review dumb ass. why would ghostface be dissin game when he had game featured on apollo kids? do some research before you go start throwin names out

    7. This album get better the more i listen to it. anyone who says it’s not a good album, needs to get thier ears drained. I listen to this more than watch the throne. And i’m the biggest yeezy & jigga fan. I think it just might DETHRONE them this week.

    8. love the martian vs goblins track, it has a similar tone to the gta san andreas loading screen song 😛

      soooo g

    9. Game’s new Interscope release, The R.E.D. Album, is slated to do in the range of 90-95k in sales, according to one-day reports from those music retailers

    10. This album sucked. Absolutely horrible. 2, maybe 3 songs with replay value. So personally, I don’t care about how u break down a crappy album

    11. Lol so now that game is projected to sell 100.000 his first week and 50s before i self destruct did 150.000 and leaked a month early must mean gayme over. No matter how u look att it. If the sales aint there take it for what it is. Some people dont like 50 but shiit numbers dont lie. . He will always have more respect than game. Str8 up.

      1. Much Respect??? Come On!, how…Taping Phone Calls? Hold Young Buck forever just for fun? Signing every wack artist in the westcoast to make them beef with Game like Spider Loc, 40 Glocc.
        FUCK 50!! IT’s GAME TIME! RED ALBUM is gonna be a classic album.

      2. Buck did that shit to himself. He’s was under 50 wing for YEARS, so he should have known who he was fucking with. If he knew then where he’d be now, he would have never bit the hand that fed him.

      3. That was like two years ago… Records sell less every year you idiot. If 50 drops this year he will do even less then Game!

    12. Game fans, yall heard the numbers for yall boy 1st week? 90k, Big Sean a new artist and his 1st he did 80 something.

    13. The Game might be seeing red next week at the top of the Billboard 200. Industry prognosticators suggest that the rapper’s new “The R.E.D. Album” (Geffen/Interscope) could sell more than 90,000 copies by week’s end on Aug. 28.

      If the set does hit No. 1, it will mark Game’s third topper following 2005’s “The Documentary” and 2007’s “Doctor’s Advocate.” His last album, “LAX,” started at No. 2 in 2008 with 239,000, according to Nielsen SoundScan.

      There’s always the chance that Jay-Z and Kanye West’s collaborative album “Watch the Throne” may hold at No. 1 for a third week. But it’s too early to tell what their album may sell.

      Pop icon Barbra Streisand could be the next biggest arrival on the Billboard 200, as her “What Matters Most” may launch with 70,000 to 80,000 copies.

      Her last album, 2009’s “Love Is the Answer,” was a surprise No. 1 debut, bowing with 180,000 — her best sales week since 1997. However, “Love’s” handsome bow was bolstered by a half-hour chat and performance on “The Oprah Winfrey Show,” along with appearances on CBS’ “Sunday Morning” and NBC’s “Today.” “What Matters” doesn’t have the opportunity to benefit from the now-off-the-air “Oprah.”

      Country star Miranda Lambert’s new side project, Pistol Annies, may see its “Hell on Heels” debut start in the top 10 as well, with perhaps 30,000 to 40,000 copies. The trio comprises Lambert, Ashley Monroe and Angaleena Presley.

    14. First of all I gotta say game is a fool for thinking he cool wit the WU,ghostface killah juss bombed all over red album,second thing I gotta say fuck ghostface!!! Everybody gon say dats juss his opinion but honestly dat fool sounded like a arrogant fucking hater I mean juss cus u eastcoast aint mean shit muthafuckas still to diz day do no not give the westcoast its props!
