Doctor's Advocate is a 2006 sophomore album by West Coast rapper The Game released November 14. The album debut at number 1 on the Billboard 200 selling 358,988, which is The Game's second number 1 album. Doctor's Advocate is a reference to rap pioneer Dr. Dre who essentially "found" The Game, according to The Game himself. The album has many of the same producers that his first album did, including Kanye West and Just Blaze. In contrast to his debut, this album features no production from Aftermath CEO and famed hip-hop producer Dr. Dre, although longtime Dre collaborator Scott Storch produced two songs on the album.
Critical Reception
Overall the album was recieved well by critics, with the New York Times even naming it the best rap album of 2006. It was also noted favorably by critics that The Game had improved on his rapping-abilities and also managed create songs and hooks without any aid of 50 Cent, who played a large part in The Documentary . Many critics also appraised The Game for constructing a well executed album, despite the well publicized fact that, 50 Cent included, nearly all of the contributors of his previous album, most notably Dr. Dre, were not present in his project. Although some criticized the album for The Game's continued name dropping on his songs.[1]
