Music Review: The game

Named in tribute to Dr. Dre, Doctor's Advocate is the stronger and harder follow-up to the Game's debut phenomenon, The Documentary.

With Dr. Dre's touch missing from this album, leading producers Scott Storch, Kanye West, Just Blaze and will.i.am have stepped in and stepped up the sound on this West Coast-reppin', narcissistic record. The wide range of producers showcases the Game's versatility in sound while his lyrics stay as aggressive and cocky as ever.

Although Doctor's Advocate is filled with the same level of swaggering arrogance as the debut album, it is far from just being The Documentary, Part II. Despite breaking down in tears on the track "Doctor's Advocate," an emotional and personal letter expressing his gratitude to his mentor, the Game brings passion and a more sophisticated flow, commanding full respect as highlighted in "Compton" and "Lookin' at You."
