Rap Critic: "Hate It Or Love It" - The Game ft. 50 Cent

[@fnordh9467]

Rap Critic you forgot choice D when it comes to 50 cent. (D): Did you know I got shot? I got shot.

[@kaleblonde]

I got shot 9 times!

[@el-kiote]

And E. Ja rule

[@ewhite5810]

"I got shot. I got shot for real.. No GotDamit I got shot, niccas shot me, I'm die." Gangstalicious.

[@pieceofgosa]

I love that when RC said "wow, ultimate deepness", he wasn't being sarcastic. Made my damn day.

[@andrewpollard_]

"Did he ju--Wait, where that water come from?" -Rap Critic (2:44)

[@andrewpollard_]

The Boy The Likes say W. try again lol

[@fury5500]

I always liked this song as a child.

[@thatonebritishidiot3037]

again, love your profile pic

[@lukeboyer1594]

Do you still like it?

[@fury5500]

+Luke Boyer Now that I am older and pay more attention to lyrics i like the song even more.

[@enriquesilva6483]

Luke The Power Man

[@lastbaratheon8043]

fury Same...nostalgia.😢

[@kenterminateddq5311]

Ironically, on the song,"One Blood", Game says,"I'm BIG, I'm Cube, I'm Nas, I'm Pac".

[@Noxshus]

It's all the years later and Game is STILL rapping like that. The king of referencecore

[@KottonmouthChannel]

this nigga break downs brings me 2 tears bruh

[@kenterminateddq5311]

The Game's name-dropping doesn't bother me, I just focus on how good the singles are. He definitely kept the name-dropping going on his second album but again, when the songs and rhymes are good, it doesn't bother me.

[@shawnorjiakor]

Same

[@kenterminateddq5311]

***** The Game wrote a song about Aliens??? Ok.

[@Juanhernandez-zx7kt]

Hey if Eminem names drops so can The Game.

[@kenterminateddq5311]

Juan, he did?

[@chillhomie04]

This is a classic! 10/10 I can still bump this 12+ years later. We don't hear rap music like this these days. Now a "classic" won't be played a year later.

[@reginashakirova6811]

The “1. Or 2 or 3 let me get in them drawers” made me laugh repeatedly. I watched this clip ten times. The best joke!!

[@HFV_Junkyardin]

The “i ain’t have 50 cent” line has a double meaning

[@ffnendhgrgd]

"In love with da game, but she was married to Rakim"

[@Tastaalex]

So I bought me a gold chain pretendin that I was him

[@aggressivereindeer3200]

y'all have me dead af xd

[@DedikateSSB]

Remember when The Game didnt look like the desk in the back of the class

[@dubsleffler7508]

Can’t say 50 was talking about deeper topics on someone else’s album to hide it, this track was supposed to be on Massacre

[@bdot187um]

True, and technically it still was...(the G-unit remix)

[@J.5.M.]

Lol the name dropping complialtion. That being said I still hold the Game I'm pretty high regard. Documentary 2 & 2.5 were great

[@higglyjuff]

I feel like Rap Critic bashes on 50 way too much. His hits are for the most part 2-3/5. But he has some good gems amongst it all. Patiently Waiting, Many Men, Changes, I'm the Man, Hustler's Ambition, Gotta Make it to Heaven etc. I also feel like he underplays some of the average songs. In Da Club, whilst it isn't technical, has some of the most recognizable lyrics today, along with one of the easiest to remember beats. When it comes to bad rappers, he gives them a lot of flak, but I feel like that's his only mode. He finds it much easier to pick holes in songs, even the ones he rates highly, than to see the good parts. All it takes is one bad line to ruin a song apparently, and he'l bring it up, again and again and again. As soon as the Game started rapping, he was going on about how it was such a typical West Coast verse, and then missed some of the better lines, whilst questioning the structure of the song, which brought 50 back for 4 bars, which to me, sounded like a nice transition. If you haven't guessed it, I'm criticizing the Rap Critic. Overall, I rate him a 3/5. i feel like he critiques a lot of the bigger hits, bringing more attention to a lot of bad songs, whilst ignoring other artists who produce good music. And when a bad artist makes a good song, he always has to draw back to the rest of the songs as though he is judging more than just the one song. Every now and then, he has a great review, but those are often in the shadows of the "okay" reviews.

[@zome631]

I guess there are rappers that SHOULDNT be smart with their lyrics. It's just like Young Thug reviews where Rap Critic is talking alot of bad things about the lyrics. Like what, trap music? Lyrics? This is music for teenagers and weed rollers, not those who want some story telling, what's the point to criticize this? Same with the 50 Cent, he mostly famous for his bangers, hit songs like = nice vocal parts, dope beat from Dre = profit, and that's all. Why must rapper care about some sense in his lyrics if his potentional listener don't pay much attention to the lyrics too?

[@Fartbeatsensor]

i agree, rap critic is a definite 3/5

[@anthonywalsh3287]

+Alice Cooper rap is a heavily lyric based genre and I appreciate rc calling out trash lyrics. I'm a fan of how young thug sounds, but that man has zero lyrical quality.

[@zome631]

Anthony Walsh Sorry, but I can't understand why he should...people buy it, artist will continue. Obvious.

[@anthonywalsh3287]

+Alice Cooper but it's still a lower quality

[@stefanpredoi4564]

I like how Rap Critic was expecting nothing from this radio single between 2 mainstream rappers and then came out impressed. Wish that would happen more nowadays

[@stephenfeldt924]

I'm pretty sure "Hate it or Love it" was originally 50's song but he gave it to Game in order to solidify his status with aftermath and G-Unit. I'm not saying this is 100% true, I just vaguely recall hearing that.

[@SugarStrangler]

How are you nitpick the airmax 95 line but skip the best line of the song? "I ain't have 50 cent when my grandma die now heading back to Cali with my Jacob on see how time fly"

[@statictv7227]

you should do Martians vs Goblins by The Game and Tyler the Creator

[@101iswhatsup]

Bro! When this came out, dude I used to hang with was all bout this album. Three things stood out to me, great production, good track list, hella name drops.

[@IQ2992]

love this song.. its 5/5 for me. Also love your reviews! Keep em coming!

[@aidenmoses6562]

theres actually a book about 50 cent's childhood called playground i believe

[@groalerable]

the game is one of the few things we seem to agree on

[@camokazi1313]

He is a great lyricist but I cringe listening to a grown man relying so heavily on name dropping.

[@jazzcritic3587]

Me too

[@piccolo56000]

one of the deepest and beautiful rap songs of the last decade and one of my favorite rap songs of all time

[@ruminationstation4200]

"stop me when the albums over" 😂

[@omnicar605]

Actually 50 gave this song to the game for his album

[@thatonedude675]

I haven't exactly gone digging for tracks by The Game since this album (it was good but I can't remember anything besides this track), but I got... I guess I'd say surprised when I learned he became a sorta underground West Coast legend over the years. I'll probably have to check out his stuff pretty soon.

[@ronaustin8381]

this guys hate for 50 cent is unnatural

[@sadman5916]

There's a lot to hate about him.

[@jackcarver5412]

Yes for example take a drink every time he says "You know how I get down" in a song

[@jaredsmitha7703]

Ron Austin not as bad as his hate for Master P, smh

[@vinnidavinci3932]

Ron Austin we don't care about 50 cent

[@blacktrick2021]

Vinni Davinci YOU don't care about him

[@JGtheefreemind]

He has far deeper songs than this. I once had a friend who would literally bug me everyday for a year to check game out, but didn't cuz I saw him as just another gangster west coast rapper. Until one day I chose to give his first album a try & man was i blown away. I've heard all his other albums.

[@JGtheefreemind]

Yo you don't fuck with good kid. Maad city? & the documentary is a classic.

[@ss3kid]

I remember really loving this song back during my middle school years. Glad you liked it.

[@Almighty_cornholio]

The documentary still one of the best albums of the 00's

[@thatonebritishidiot3037]

0:00-9:11 the feels

[@Dan.Tebasco]

Good work bruh, I usually don't watch any reviewers and critics on youtube but I like what you're doing with these rap critic vids

[@sumanbiswas6961]

dude you are so chill...i like your vids very much

[@aphr0d]

wow that end bit there actually made me tear up damn

[@zazmanondabeativ836]

Lmfao! i died when you said "wait where did that water come from " xD

[@Official_IzumiYukiRose]

I never saw it as dropping names i always saw it as him paying homage and respect to the rappers he grew up listening to.

[@sistah_fistahs_antichrist]

I would feel that if he did it every now and then, but he do it on every single song.

[@dfm6868]

Say what you will the documentary is a classic

[@bdot187um]

thanks to 50

[@L1am21]

+Badr187 not really.

[@bdot187um]

+L1am21 yes really, sure The documentary was a great album some might say a classic, Game did some serious rapping on That LP but you can't deny The impact of 50 cent, the First Singles those 3 records were so fucking dope & a huge part of my Childhood so if wouldn't for 50 cent I'm pretty sure that The Nigga with attitude vol.1 would have been shelved & The Game would have been dropped from aftermath. btw the documentary had 6 cuts that were originally intended for The massacre.

[@PesterFester1966]

L1am21 And Eazy-E was a shit rapper...... Deal with it.

[@theitfactorjameswheezer2852]

JUST ADMIT YOU'RE SHIT He wasn’t a Shit rapper, he was good, he just didn’t write his own

[@joaquinlascano3633]

Young buck was not a childhood friend of 50 cents

[@FatherRonx]

When I need a good laugh I come here for the name compilation segment because that’s one of the funniest things ever

[@bummerdrummer39]

Would you mind reviewing a little more Eminem?

[@TheGamer-br2gm]

He's uploading previously made episodes from blip, he reviewed marshall Mathers lp 1 and 2, bezerk, and did top 6 gut wrenching Eminem songs, they should b coming out to this channel soon

[@bummerdrummer39]

Thanks!

[@KaoticReach1999]

Yes he was wanting to run away when he was the kid before he became a rapper and got out Man he hates 50 cent lol

[@myname8635]

He's talking about when he's growing up saying "I'd run away from this bitch and never come back if I could" then the chorus is saying that now the underdog's are on top

[@icandodgebullets86]

This was brilliant. intelligent and funny. I was also reminded what a simile is as opposed to a metaphor !! subbed

[@jayceontaylor8195]

5:08 you remembered that whole quote?

[@russelladams7134]

I love when The Game be name dropping because music is a family tree and so many leaves on the tree so many recording artists that pave the way for others or are making a name for themselves.

[@pyrospike]

Yo where's a review of some new The game like the documentary 2?

[@viewerguy10]

I've been saying for years now. The Game loved to name drop back in the day.

[@creamskunk]

Please please please review Twista's 'Slow Jamz'. Imma bring the Cool Whip. Luv-oo

[@MrJaymezGee]

I was just looking for this review earlier, remember seeing this and have just gotten around to listening to The Documentary, so thought I'd watch this again - You and Mues planning on reviewing The Documentary 2?

[@610smoke]

oh shit its the British guy that reviews struggle rappers.

[@MrJaymezGee]

+Junior Grant Lol first time I got recognised in someone elses comment section, moving up in the world I guess...

[@kenterminateddq5311]

+MrJaymezGee There's a sequel? I didn't know that!

[@MrJaymezGee]

kenterminatedbygoogle Yeah its coming out in October, gonna be a double disc release with 38 total tracks :)

[@kenterminateddq5311]

MrJaymezGee October of this year???

[@jacobhovsepian8394]

Anyone else notice how the rap critic decided not to talk about the part of games verse where he talks about gang violence growing up??

[@ryuzakiofficial131]

Just became a fan, and I already think you and Doug should collab! I don't care how, but it must be done!

[@jazzcritic3587]

“When boy bands dyieng off and Eminem was ruling the world” Agh GREAT TIMES!

[@bdot187um]

True.

[@roxXxey]

love this song..

[@branjolanonomous2720]

I enjoy your channel your man, keep up the good work👍

[@ThisCommentWroteItself]

40 solid seconds of nothing but The Game name-dropping famous people. And that's just off of his successful singles with music videos - god knows how much more there is in the album tracks.

[@emmanuelmakoba6085]

The Game entering his verse had me rolling in this vid 😂😂😂

[@frederikbuttenschn7562]

When that cloud went past your window, I thought it as a video effect.

[@sarahajike]

6:20 he referenced DJ Pooh as well before he referenced 50 Cent lol.

[@supahdupahguy81]

That ain't no exaggeration about the Games persistent name drops either. I copped The Documentary which was a double disc edition + extras for some reason, & i swear down....90% of the tracks were name drops..

[@infamouslongman5190]

i always thought the 5-0 part means now that he is getting money he see the point of the police being around ( use to see 5-0 throw crack by the bench now messing with 5-0 all starts to make sense)

[@YazTeondra-]

Loved the Mary j Blige version of this song

[@bdot187um]

Yeah the mix of Mary & 50 made it so soulful & heartfelt.

[@Cbmarks191]

i dont think the game realizes that makaveli is tupac

[@rezball5838]

Cristian Marquez you stupid idiot yes he does dumbass

[@ucnhtmenow1]

Of course he does but that's the point. Tupac wanted to perceive he was 2 different people. The Tupac before and after he was shot or maybe even after he got out of jail. The "Resurrected" Tupac.

[@ucnhtmenow1]

Whats up with the childish name calling man.. Chill.. Are you that angry. Do you just walk around all day insulting people or just online?

[@wheatleythebrick2276]

L1L F1R3 THANK YOU

[@Cbmarks191]

L1L F1R3 o my B

[@Channel1Mind]

You know u kinda skipped over The Game reflecting on the death of his brother... You know deep perspective which you insinuate he lacks.

[@Fulcrum.Actual]

I still bump this

[@twite5462]

Game is a legend

[@kimifw58]

As someone who took the time to read the lyrics of one of 50 Cent's albums, I'll have to agree with you about him. It's mostly just the same macho garbage over and over. I'm glad someone is thinking about this stuff. Don't let anyone tell you not to think about these songs, RC. Keep using your brain.

[@nikkilovepinkful]

he ain't have 50 cent as in he was broke

[@hhaney9187]

Name dropping is one of the best parts of rap. It made 50's career because Puff and all them couldn't handle being made fun of on the streets. They took the bait lol. Hate it or Love It.

[@fredroberts8275]

Rewatching this, I noticed the audio mix is weird. His voice sounds softer and the music in the background is oddly quiet.

[@fabiandonaldson5278]

Do stop being a hater 50 cent part was amazing

[@YoDz-117]

Now anyone with a KZbin channel can proclaim themselves a critic

[@HogFlamboli]

But he's been around for a while, just on patreon and transferred his older stuff on along with his newer stuff.

[@Mr.Marbles]

Well thats how it works

[@nritsch]

He's released multiple rap albums, so yeah, I think he has the right to be a critic.

[@thecollector9721]

And u have lil yachty peek a boo on your KZbin playlist so shut up that song is trash

[@troycummings709]

i really like how the video shows the difference between the states

[@backseatflow]

You should review Talk Show by big sean and jhene aiko

[@Philocyb1n]

yo its denzel washington

[@TupacAurelius]

lmaooo

[@TheSchism-y7p]

It'd be cool if you reviewed someone like Hoodie Allen. I'd love to know your opinion on his music

[@afterbreakfastrocker]

+Emmanuel Ani He and Mues actually reviewed Hoodie's latest album on an episode of Goin Off. Their opinion was...not high.

[@georgiosdikaros3605]

50 was talking about his past when talking about escaping the hood and all.

[@jinx184]

Dude just called out Suge like, what, last year? On two different tracks. His new shit is pretty solid.

[@laylando9898]

Many men is pretty good rap critic should listen to it

[@wehatekai]

I honestly thought i was the only one who noticed that Game keeps mentioning famous people... ALWAYS

[@thegreyhues]

you were right. each album is better, in 2017, he's beast

[@lucasbell4831]

So where DID that water come from?

[@luanzondervan7402]

you skipped the part where he tells us why he knows all about losses

[@CyrexMC]

Thank you! Game is awesome but he name drops WAY too often

[@jlprizm]

I really liked this song when it came out. It's got some pretty good lyrics and the beat is nice.

[@TheAgentmigs]

I thought the "check out my melody" was in reference to Limp Bizkit.....i'll continue to believe that :P

[@thejjfrantsexperience5572]

+Alpharion Omegon I too like to believe Fifty's favourite rapper growing up was Fred Durst

[@MugenMook]

+JJF Rants I'm pretty sure they were actually referencing the same person fifty was

[@TheArtunism]

I think the game is hella dope. Even the name dropping isn't too bad and his first 2 albums are classics. Hell, I think his last three albums are also REALLY good

[@michealrogers6582]

yo honestly its the flaws that make some songs unique. this one to me is perfect

[@kendrickwhite995]

Did you know this was 50 cent original song, but had to give The Game two songs, thanks to Dre

[@chrissywicked96]

UNCONFIDENT isn't a word

[@coldOful]

I love your channel :) please do more videos of eminem, lauryn hill songs and others too!
