The past two weeks have been very productive for the hip-hop/rap world, as there have been several album drops by industry heavyweights. One of the latest, however, being one of my favorite artists, Game.

Carrying West Coast rap on his back, the Compton native did not disappoint, as he hits a home run with his latest project. And as I won’t prematurely cross the foul line [yet] and say it’s better than his debut album, The Documentary, it’s undoubtedly in the rearview, gaining ground.

With 20-plus tracks and an array of features, I rarely found myself cutting any one of them short. Easily one of the best albums of the year, and below are a few of my early favorites.

• Good Girls Go Bad featuring Drake
• The City featuring Kendrick Lamar
• All The Way Gone featuring Mario & Wale
