The Game believes he belongs among the top 50 best rappers of all time. From T.I. to Ebro, numerous artists and industry heavyweights expressed their unique perspectives on the 50 best rappers of all time in 2019. Lil Durk went so far as to make his own list.

Now, over two years later, The Game is upset that he was left off of Ebro, T.I., and Funkmaster Flex’s lists. When addressing the best figures in hip-hop, the three lists include many of the same names, including The Notorious B.I.G., Tupac Shakur, Jay-Z, Eminem, and others.

In certain cases, though, newer rappers such as Meek Mill, Big Sean, Young Thug, and ASAP Rocky were listed ahead of The Game. The three lists, as well as Game’s post, may be seen at the bottom of this piece.

@oldmanebro @funkflex & @troubleman31…… I ain’t forgot about these lists. #DRILLMATIC coming soon…. HURRICANE GAME LIVES. y’all shoulda just threw my baby mamas in there too !!!!

The Game has never shied away from debates over rapper rankings. Last year, he shared his top ten live rappers, which included Jay-Z, Nas, Lil Wayne, and others, but he also said he could go “bar for bar” with anyone on the list. He also claimed a few months prior that he is the best rapper from Compton and that he taught Kendrick Lamar the ropes.

The Game is now riding high on the success of his new single “Eazy,” which he collaborated on with Kanye West. The song debuted at No. 49 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart on Saturday, January 15. Since 2008’s “My Life” with Lil Wayne, this was Game’s highest charting song. Drillmatic, his new album, is set to be released later this year.
