 The Name Game: L.A.X. Edition
I must say he delivered a banger of an album, many of his songs are catchy, his production is rarely subpar, and I can respect fact that he's the only artist to go against 50 and not get buried like everybody else.
I know it's cool and respectful to "big up" the people you look up to and work with this guy takes name dropping to a whole nother level. His man crush on Dr. Dre is second to none On this album it's no surprise he gets the most mentions but I was surprised he tied with Biggie. So here's the breakdown

A total of 122 different people/group names...
Pretty ridiculous really. I may have missed some, some were parts of punches, some are designers or clothing lines, but because he's constantly dropping names they get added automatically.
Overall more than a decent album, I definitely like The Documentary better. Best tracks were probably My Life minus vocoder, Let Us Live, Dope Boys and Games Pain.
I also know Biggie, Pac, and Eazy-E are turning in their graves after never can say goodbye was recorded. Good concept but trying to sound like them was completely unnecessary...
