AharonScafidi reviewed The Documentary III by The Game 3w
Project: #042 of 2026
Title: The Documentary III
Artist: The Game
The Documentary III represents a very flawed side from The Game's musical releasing. The project feels very bloated and uneven, though having some very good production in places and as usual very strong vocal performances from The Game. Though whilst his voice works, most of the time feels unbearable due to it's very empty and nonsensical lyricism at times, and also a lot of the time not feeling like it actually fits on the instrumentals.
A few comments about some tracks:
Love It Or Hate It:
Production is incredible, but he's running out of track names he had to reuse Hate It Or Love It's
No Brakes:
A track that features Drake features a very Drake-like bar from The Game. "Twiny twin twin" ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญโ๏ธ
40 Nights:
Incredible track when it first leaked, would have actually gotten an 100 if it released like that. But for some reason The Game thought it would be a good idea to make Ye's verse part of the outro, and to rewrite his verses with some absolutely ATROCIOUS lines ๐ญ.
Do You Love Me:
I can not bear that interlude/skit/chorus thing
Production and vocals also feel very detached
In The Way:
I just made some BULLSHIIIII ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐คฎ๐คฎ๐คฎ๐คฎ
HELLA:
"Life short but my d*** long" pack it up bro ๐ฌ
Nothing 2 Hide:
Production is great, but I can not stand The Game's vocals on this
LA Monster:
Second track to credit Ye because it samples Jesus Is King throwaway LA Monster, whilst also interpolating I Love It for the intro ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
FAVOURITES: 40 Nights, Love It or Hate It, I Won't Be Afraid
LEAST FAVOURITES: LA Monster, In The Way, Steppers, The Part
Simplified rating: 6/10
