One of hip-hop's finest, The Game, is saying goodbye to music for good (or at least until he gets the Jay-Z syndrome), so here are the top 10 songs for the perfect Game mix.
1. "Hate It Or Love It Remix" featuring G-Unit: A classic from the start, this "Documentary" hit got even better when the rest of G-Unt joined in to reminisce.
2. "How We Do" featuring 50 Cent: The Game's first single. An infectious beat, dueling verses with 50 Cent and Lamborghini doors on an Escalade? Enough Said.
3. "Higher": A Dr. Dre jam that features a shout out from Snoop. A definite highlight from his debut.
4. "It's Okay (One Blood)": The first single from "Doctor's Advocate" was unlike anything The Game had done before.
5. "Doctor's Advocate": A somber tribute to the man that inspired him.
6. "California Vacation" featuring Snoop Dogg and Xzibit: A classic West Coast banger with that classic West Coast flow. Two guest superstars round out the package.
7. "Compton" featuring Will.i.am: A "gangsta boogie."
8. "My Life" featuring Lil' Wayne: Weezy and The Game team up and create a masterpiece.
9. "Dope Boys" featuring Travis Barker: An upbeat, radio jam with plenty of fire.
10. "L.A.X. Files": A hard track about taking a ride with The Game through L.A.
