Game Time!*

[* – Not clever at all, I know. Couldn’t really come up with anything better.]

Hell of a find over at the always-on-point Spine Magazine, for those interested.

Five tracks from The Game, apparently all produced by Dr. Dre, which were left off of the Doctor’s Advocate, likely because they are apparently all produced by Dr. Dre. If you’re not a fan of Game’s name-dropping, then you’re likely not gonna be blown away by any of these, as even though they are “unreleased” (until now, at least) tracks, there’s no real “diamond in the rough” amongst them. I still recommend giving ’em a listen, though — after all, how often do you stumble across five unreleased Dr. Dre beats? If I could pick one to throw on Doctor’s Advocate, I’d take “Murda,” although it’s pretty similar in content to “Ol’ English,” which was one of my favorite tracks off that album.

And just out of curiousity — ever since Doctor’s Advocate fell way short of Game’s predicted sales (“1 million first week”? Come come now), are people outside of Cali still checking for him?

UPDATE: Here are links to download these songs. I’m slowly getting the hang of this whole “having a blog that other people might actually read” thing.
