[h1]Game releases star-studded 'Purp & Patron' mixtape[/h1]
January 26, 2011 | 11:05 am
Give Game credit. Over the last 12 months, he's released a great album. The problem is that you have to put it together yourself.
Released in union with longtime collaborator DJ Skee, "Purp & Patron" is the erstwhile Jayceon Taylor's third mixtape in the last nine months. Combined and scattered amid all the compulsive name-drops, '93 West Coast posturing and abhorrent Kardashian family drops, is something very good. Maybe not as excellent as his steroid-era classic, "The Documentary," or the jilted lunacy of "Doctor's Advocate," but rock solid nonetheless. Far from revolutionary, but a nice addition to a deceptively estimable catalog.
http://
First, there was April's "The R.E.D. Room," which came equipped with the now-comical headline "R.E.D." gets a firm release date." Like its follow-up, August's "Brake Lights" mixtape, Game enlisted a Hall of Fame's worth of producers and guests: Busta Rhymes, Nas, Snoop Dogg, Lil Wayne, Pharrell, Jadakiss, Bizzy Bone. The effect is something like watching an NBA All-Star game -- relentless empty entertainment, studded with the occasional horrible misfire.
His latest, "Purp & Patron," is as bloated as Ignatius O' Reilly and equally absurd (forced name-drops are compulsory when mentioning a Game mixtape). It is 29 songs and runs nearly two hours. It is the only mixtape that you will ever hear in your lifetime with Doug E. Fresh and Lil Boosie. There are appearances from Snoop Dogg, Dr. Dre, Big Daddy Kane, KRS-One, Bun B, Pharrell, Lil Wayne, Mistah Fab, the Jacka, Wiz Khalifa, Fabolous and Rick Ross. There are beats from Dre and the Neptunes, Bink, and T-Pain.
It underscores the reason behind this Miami Heat-worthy accumulation of talent. For the life of him, Game cannot get a release date for his full-length album, which is supposed to be realeased by Interscope. He's not alone. At this point, rap release dates operate like shell games. One guess is as good as the next. The goal is to land a single on radio, take it national and force the label's hand. But for a variety of reasons ranging from popular caprice to politics, Game cannot land a hit single and the big names are one way to show that you're trying.
The new mixtape also has Dr. Dre chopping up a sample of Nina Simone's "Baltimore." Game's subjective matter can get easily repetitive and his name-drops remains excessive, but he raps well and has the best ear for beats outside of Rick Ross. There's something to be said for that. Whether or not anything from this tape will trigger an ultimate release of "R.E.D.," its release perhaps matters most to Game. Otherwise, fans of vintage West Coast gangsta rap will surely find their fix here.
And if someone has the time and judicious editing ability to distill the strongest moments of his last three mixtapes into one hour's worth of music, please let us know in the comment section.

You can tell a lot of these were suppose to make the album, some of these sounds like straight filler. It's free so you can't really complain but it's too many songs that show you how repetitive The Game really is. Some of these songs are REAL nice and should have just kept on the album.

the songs on p&p should show a good representation of what the RED will be like hopefully.

[h2]GAME’S ‘R.E.D. ALBUM’ TO BE STAR-STUDDED FEST[/h2]
Game struck gold with his double-disc mixtape Purp & Patron, a worldwide trending topic on Twitter since its release. But the Compton native promises that the giveaway has nothing on his long-awaited R.E.D. Album.
The West Coast MC claims that his oft-delayed fourth LP will exceed any material on his mixtapes. “The mixtape !++* is incredible by the fans’ choice, but I know my music and the album is 20 times better than the mixtape,

[h1]Game Says That Nas Loves "The Kill", "Purp & Patron" Was Made In 72 Hours[/h1]
by Jake Paine
Exclusive: Game reveals that the response to "The Kill" has come from many places, prompting him and DJ Skee to shoot a video, and that "Purp & Patron" was largely written since Saturday morning.
Compton, California emcee Game has had a massive week, by way of his Purp & Patron [img][/img]/cdn.hiphopdx.com/images...cdn.hiphopdx.com/i...y_button_article_orn.gif'" onmouseout="this.src='http://cdn.hiphopdx.com/i...y_button_article_blk.gif'" border=0 src="http://cdn.hiphopdx.com/images/play_button_article_blk.gif" loaded="true" original="http://cdn.hiphopdx.com/images/play_button_article_blk.gif"> double-mixtape. The effort, hosted by both Funkmaster Flex and DJ Skee has fans excited about the upcoming R.E.D. album.
Speaking with HipHopDX just minutes ago, Game spoke about getting the legendary club deejay and radio personality Funkmaster Flex to co-host this monstrous tape. For starters, the mixtape's title took its form from simple studio surroundings. "I told [DJ] Skee that it was about time for another mixtape, because I had been getting a bunch of things done just on the random - [not necessarily for the R.E.D.] album. I called [Lil] Wayne and I called [Fabolous], just callin' in favors. I just knew I was gonna put out a mixtape, but I didn't even know what I was gonna call it. We was in the studio, drinkin' this Cafe Patron, which is the bottle featured on the tape [cover], and smokin' and everything. One of my boys was like, 'Yo, we gonna call it Purp & Patron.' So I called Skee [and asked] to get a cover drawn up."
Once Game went public with the concept, Hot 97's evening deejay wanted in. "As soon as I put the avatar on my phone, [Funkmaster] Flex called me up like, 'Yo, I'm bein' part of this thing. Call Skee and let him know it's me and him.'" DJ Skee, who has been making mixtapes with Game for nearly eight years, agreed to have the legendary mixmaster host.
Without much warning, the double-mixtape released on Monday. The short notice was actually game taking a challenge from Black Wall Street producer Ike. "I didn't think I was gonna be able to make the deadline, but my boy challenged me," said the rapper. On Saturday at 11 a.m. PST, the rapper says he had nothing recorded, but began feverishly writing and recording. "I just started writin' my verses to everything I had. +$@#, I went in, man. My engineer Sam, I kept asking him, 'Sam, where we at?'" The contents of Purp & Patron went from three songs, to 12, to 18, to a total of 30. "Send Skee 30 songs," Game told his engineer, without having previously conceptualized a double-mixtape. "+$@#, it's called Purp & Patron. Let's make one Purp, let's make one Patron."
When DJ Skee received the weekend recordings, Monday's 4:20 pm EST deadline was fast approaching. "Skee was on an airplane from New York to L.A. He sequenced the tape and put the drops in, and got the tape right on the plane," Game revealed. "As soon as he landed [we put it out]." Although the initial deadline was not met, Game teased fans, claiming he meant Pacific Standard Time instead. Once the tape reached online sites, the fans swarmed. With a hearty laugh, Game told DX, "That +$@# spread like HIV on a !+%# ****."
Among the songs that fans are talking about the most on Purp & Patron is the Cool & Dre-produced "The Kill" [img][/img]/cdn.hiphopdx.com/images...cdn.hiphopdx.com/i...y_button_article_orn.gif'" onmouseout="this.src='http://cdn.hiphopdx.com/i...y_button_article_blk.gif'" border=0 src="http://cdn.hiphopdx.com/images/play_button_article_blk.gif" loaded="true" jQuery1296367752402="25" original="http://cdn.hiphopdx.com/images/play_button_article_blk.gif">. Asked about the La Roux-sampling song, Game provided an interesting anecdote. "I hadn't talked to Nas in like a year, since [L.A.X. when] we did 'Letter To The King.' Out of nowhere, I get a text from this #%%@%#' [New York] number, and I read the text: 'Yo, it's Esco. Two words: 'The Kill.'" As Game tried to engage in a text conversation with his friend and collaborator, Nas stopped respond. With a chuckle, Game stated, "He disappeared again. He just chimed in to give me props on 'The Kill.'"
More than just Nas' blessings, the song is a favorite by fans. "That song is crazy, I love 'The Kill.' That's my favorite song on the mixtape," said Game. "I just got off the phone with Skee like two minutes [ago], and we was talkin' about how we gonna shoot this video to 'The Kill,' 'cause fans are really going crazy for it. So we're gonna have to do a visual. We're gonna work on that in the next seven days."
Asked about the inspiration to the song, Game affirmed his critics for bringing the lyrics out. "I was in the mind-state of people always doubting me, lyrically. I think it's 'cause I have fun and I got plenty styles. I can change my voice and change my style, and I'm always havin' fun on records. I don't know why people doubt me lyrically, but I really am a superb lyricist." The self-confident emcee continued, "When I sit down and really give myself a chance to think and vibe with a beat, [I can be great]. I think I've proved that album-after-album, joint-after-joint, from 'Hate It Or Love It' to 'My Life' to 'Dreams' on down to 'The Kill.' When I start writing real music, it always comes across like this."
The emcee also praised longtime collaborators Cool & Dre, as well as his deep for the culture. "When I get a beat like that, and I'm in that real music, real Hip Hop, then that's gonna be the outcome every time."

he should be striving for "R.E.D." to top "Doctor's Advocate" cuz THAT was his best album IMO. it was a true west coast sounding album, he got laced with HEAT from Just, Kanye, Scott Storch, Will.i.Am ("Compton" beat was
), & JR Rotem
Really feeling the "Purp & Patron" tape too. "LA Times", "Soo Woo", & "Taylor Made"
the regular version of "I'm The King" with 3 Game verses >>> the remix
