Customer Reviews:
one of his less better mixtapes.......2007-01-28
this mixtape isnt really worth any more than 2 stars,i think the game is a dope artist and im probly a bit biased when writing reveiws of his ablums,and i still didnt like it much,i just couldnt get into the beats on subject matter,it seems rushed to me,keep your cash and get one of games better mixtapes,he has a whole stack of them...lol
The best album I've ever heard.......2006-01-25
I thought this cd wouldn't be very good because after artist makes a cd as good as The Documentary they seem to have used most of their creativity. But this is the best rap album ever.
The Game ----- The Untold Story, Part 2.......2006-01-09
If The Game is rap's self proclaimed MVP for 2005, Then JT The Bigga Figga could be a candidate for raps 2005 Executive of the Year. Every couple of months JT puts out some old Game material that apparently, he has the rights to, then those records go on to sell a lot of copies with minimal expense to JT. You can't really knock that, unless of course, it's your material that he's selling. In just a few months JT has released two albums by one of Hip-Hops biggest superstars. The second of JT's series, Untold Story Volume II (Fastlife), featuring The Game seems to have made no improvements upon where Volume I left off.
Untold Story Vol. II is clearly more of a JT project than a Game project. A lot of the vocals were recorded by The Game years ago when he was still in the early stages of his career. But even then, The Game displayed the realness that makes him one of Hip-Hop's biggest stars on songs like "Just Beginning", where he airs out his father over some smooth guitar licks, for some of the things his father did to his family while he was growing up. Another song that true Game fans can appreciate is "Truth Rap" where he speaks about life in the ghetto in a way that only a few can when he spits "Nobody knows there neighbors name/ unless they sell weed or cocaine/a lot of black clouds on a block with no rain/The game got a lot to say/ so they wanna take me down in my own front yard like Marvin Gaye." But outside of a few other decent tracks from The Game himself including "Business Never Personal" - "Real Live on blocks, if we aint pushin the rocks, we movin the stocks", Volume II suffers from mediocre production and a lack of creative direction mainly because the star of the show had NO input in the creative process.
It's unclear how much of The Game's material JT has left in his vault but what is clear after listening to this album is that he's probably getting pretty low on his stash, which means that pretty soon JT is gonna have to come up with a new hustle for 2006. Untold Story Vol. II has a similar feel to a recent posthumous Tupac album where the lyrics seem a little outdated and a little too familiar (heard some of these verses on the last album) and the production and the M.C. just aren't on the same page and don't compliment each other at all. Now, while Tupac can get away with that, the same thing can not be said at this point for JT The Bigga Figga or The Game.
Good Listen.......2005-10-26
This cd is pretty good even though JT just wants to make money off The Game. This album is better then the first Untold Story but just slightly under The Documentary. Favorite songs are Walk Thru The Sky,Born And Raised In Compton, and Game Get Live. I recommend that Game fans buy this album and if you want to hear a little of the Westcoast then this cd is for you.
Good CD.......2005-10-26
The Game is one of the best to come out of the westcoast in a long time. This cd is not what you think it is, it does not have the beats that his true debut The Documentary has but the lyrics are a little better on this cd but most people will say other wise but this is my opinion. I recommend that hardcore Game fans buy this cd and people who like underground cds.
