This is just me, but only track I can see as a filler is "Special" with Nate Dogg, but I thought it meshed with the album nonetheless.

Like other great albums, there's the really great songs that we'll replay more than the rest, but it doesn't mean the rest aren't solid.

Obviously, I wouldn't compare it to an Illmatic or RD, but as far as a new-age classic (College Dropout, The Listening, etc.) it's as good as it gets.

I'd give it a nod.

Most def a classic, just the production alone on the album is "classic"

Hopefully he comes through with a second classic album.

Classic in my eyes, "Special" is the only weak song to me

I personally think it's one of the best produced albums ever

I think so. The Game put out a banger with that one. Even if he did have help with 50. It is what it is.

That album sounds great in a system.

Absolutely not.  He had alot of bangers on it, but that's about. 

just the production alone on the album is "classic"


If Game didn't rhyme on the tracks then I would say that The Documentary is a classic, but unfortunately he did so the classic label gets taken away from this album.

No. It hasn't held up over the years. He had a few bangers though.
