 Dont retire! January 3, 2009
The Game is very underrated and this album once again proves it. He's amazing and has great lyrics and beats. As his number fan, I dont mean to be biased but you should all go out and get this album to be treated with tunes like DOPE BOY and MONEY which will blow your mind. The only songs I cant stand are CALIFORNIA SUNSHINE, YA HEARD ft. Ludax(disappointment) and NEVER CAN SAY GOODBYE. The rest is PURE rap class. Amazing one GAME. Look forward to the next album!!!!!!!!!

The Game does it again November 23, 2008
Another classic album form The Game, a must have for any Game fan, highly recomended
Great CD for the money! November 20, 2008
This is the third Game album and the third classic album he has. I gave this CD 5 stars because every track on the CD is well written and I enjoy listening to it. The features (which include Nas and Common) are amazing. There is not one track on this CD that you will not like. He also brings back that early 90s west coast feeling on his tracks with cube and common. This is one of the best CD releases of 2008 and well worth the price.
'LAX' is Cliché and Formulaic, Yet It Works! November 4, 2008
'The Game' really doesn't have anything to say that hasn't been rapped about in a West Coast album before. Instead of coming up with new, original lyrical content, 'The Game' builds off of content that has been a staple of the gangsta rap sub-genre since its interpretation. Even so, the production and slick lyrics found on 'LAX' make it a keeper for the collection and one of the year's highlights.
Featuring a diverse list of guests from DMX to NAS to Travis Barker, 'The Game' raps over West Coast-style beats to subjects that include his life as a gangsta ('LAX Files', 'My Life', 'House of Pain') to his love of hip-hop ('Angel', 'Game's Pain'). Yes, unlike the legends in the game such as Ice Cube and Dr. Dre he often sounds insincere on here, but he drops some dope rhymes that make 'LAX' worthwhile regardless. Also, the beats are especially good, and if you've heard the first single ('Dope Boys') then you'll know what I'm talking about.
Unfortunately, there are some flaws to this album too. The R&B flavored 'Gentleman's Affair' features the always-awful Ne-Yo as a guest artist and 'LAX Files' with Ice Cube is perhaps the most boring West Coast inspired track ever produced (lyrically and production-wise).
Sure, 'LAX' is by the numbers. Sure, it's a bit generic. And, sure, you've most likely heard what this album had to offer even prior to listening to it. Regardless, the excellent production and entertaining lyricism make it worth a purchase.
