@@gabinoherrera7043 Not only that let me drop this gem on y’all, when he said “Left Eye said it’s a hard knock life than you pass away, the industry wouldn’t let that fly and that water bar was weak.
Love it I have a feeling this was original version he wrote before producers telling him : "Needs more gangsta shit " Then he wrote the Maya verse and changed some lines here and there
no this isnt the original he didnt have the butterfly tattoo when the documentary came out hence the version of dreams we all know, this is probably for some commercial or radio play bs
No this is the original version he had to change it because this song is too conscious/ positive talking about buying his mum a house, Marcus Garvey and his brother dying in the military. The powers at be said you can't talk about this black shit be gangster instead
The game has always been one of those rappers who is not afraid to say something that might rub somebody’s the Wrong Way speaks the truth and sheds light on those problems people don’t speak about
wooow this is pure gold, this is what the black youth needed to hear they changed it for the money like always...I know their music was fire Im just saying ..this version should have been legendary by now
@calebdarling9118 But did you listen to his Mixtapes? That's where he shows his lyrical abilities the most. Most people just listen to albums only and that's not hearing the whole catalog. To say he's not top 50 lyrically just doesn't sound right and if he's not top 50 then neither is 50.
Yes with age he unfortunately never grew past this stage and it’s not a good look now , but with judgement from todays modern fans put aside you can’t deny that he really was a gifted lyricist that had almost poetic vibe to rap and at we could always appreciate how he payed homage to the legends that paved the way for the west coast in the rap game and kept their names alive to the newer era of rap/hip hop fans .

Bruh he literally made two different versions with the same cadence but with completely different subject matter. Pure talent
He just made 2. No need for "literally"
💯💯💯
@@tapset You're literally one of those people who literally hate the word "literally"
@@tapset exactly bruh hes good
one of the best of this generation
Damn shame that this isn't the "official" version of this song. In my view, it's far superior. Thank you for uploading it so that we can hear it.
Back to when Rappers would double their vocals 🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯
This version is incredible
Damn bruh, he made two songs with different topics and same beat and they both lit , this just pure talent
Best comment bro
I like that
They couldn't let this version hit the streets it would have changed the whole atmosphere of rap
Elaborate…
@@v.m.m101 listen to the released version then come back to this the substance of both songs
@@WhatzGoinOnBooBieBrutus I think the released version has more Paparazzi name dropping than this version
@@v.m.m101 I’ll elaborate for you. First he’s rapping about having posters of usher and lil bow wow on his wall. Need I say more?
@@gabinoherrera7043 Not only that let me drop this gem on y’all, when he said “Left Eye said it’s a hard knock life than you pass away, the industry wouldn’t let that fly and that water bar was weak.
The powers that be wouldn't of let this version go mainstream like the version on the documentary did. Glad I found this
Love it
I have a feeling this was original version he wrote before producers telling him :
"Needs more gangsta shit "

@@adeolaakinbiyi4028Documentary dropped in 2005, he mentioned the year for this rap in the beginning verse being 2006
@@adeolaakinbiyi4028 Y Doesn't his mother Kick his Dad Outta the House that She's in Now?
He dissed mase and and referenced the beef between him and 50 this was not the original version bro
Why should I go to the army when I don't know the outcome and how my uncle selling X but never heard of Malcolm 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Is it out
This is fucking crazy man , dreams is certified but this version is 10x better
The Game is mad talented, derailed his path when he turned on Dre and 50 tho
Facts. Major L
Can't believe my childhood favorite song is a game changer that never got the spotlight
Glad i heard this version but a little angry that it was kept from me this long! This actually resonates with me deeper than the mainstream version!
Same here
@@KalamuYaGalanaWho,s Saying Cuase i love u?
glad i found this somehow for years i had this version, and didnt find it for weeks recently. thought my mind made it up
This raw version seems more real but definitely see how the official version made it to the album 💿- concise and polished. Great song and message
this not the original he didnt have the butterfly tattoo when he made the documentary this is the second version probably the clean one
@@SpiritualChills clean version? lol clean versions are never a whole new song lmfao & this is from 2005 btw since he talks about ciara and bow wow
@@coldcorner9902this was still recorded after the original documentary album came out.
@@tallboiedd2846 very pointless comment
@@coldcorner9902 wdym pointless 💀
As much as I love dreams, I like this version more.
The game has always been one of those rappers who is not afraid to say something that might rub somebody’s the Wrong Way speaks the truth and sheds light on those problems people don’t speak about
This version's lyrics hit harder! Damn!
Because this version is more conscious than the known version.
RIP to all the sons and big brothers who never came home.
.. All for a war created by Bush administration themselves 🤦♂️
That X and Malcolm line was lite.
He mentioned his beef with 50 so this came out after the album version
Yep, notice he had the butterfly tat and the big blackwallstreet piece. This was late 05.
Plus he says "I woke up in 2001 [...] 5 years later the war is done" so that make 2006, year of Doctors Advocate
He should have did 2 videos. This video would of been crazy
2020 who still here for this verse and bumping the radio to it
Never knew this existed. Wish it was finished and put out as a bonus track
Love this version
Game is so talented
Oh damn 🔥
Both version are hot. He should have dropped this as a freestyle
Or a remix or something
wooow this is pure gold, this is what the black youth needed to hear they changed it for the money like always...I know their music was fire Im just saying ..this version should have been legendary by now
03:09 hits hard after all these years
The sidekick tho
Have been looking for this for ages
God bless this day ♾
ive just disccovered it and im really digging for a studio version...
this has to be after the documentary album surely? the things he's talking about and the BWS chain.
The Game with the Sidekick is my spirit animal. He’s a beast in the studio.
This was quite revolutionary way better than the famous version but I love them both all the same 👊🏾💪🏾🇰🇪
Always like this version
Game has always been my top 15.
Why though? He's doesn't have top 50 lyrical talent even?
@calebdarling9118 You haven't heard enough with that statement.
@Man_eee I've heard most of his catalog actually. I enjoy his music a lot, but lyrically he's not up there
@calebdarling9118 But did you listen to his Mixtapes? That's where he shows his lyrical abilities the most. Most people just listen to albums only and that's not hearing the whole catalog. To say he's not top 50 lyrically just doesn't sound right and if he's not top 50 then neither is 50.
@Man_eee I include mixtapes in catalogs, most definitely agree with you there. And 50 is not top 50 either imo.
Thanks for sharing this
Wow. This version is fire!
😮 This is crazy 😧 the version it's positive its barz dope 💯🎇
Man, this dude lyrics got drowned out. Most artists do I think.
Man that first 2001 verse hit deep
Yup, hits way deeper than the first "2001" verse from the "official" version of the song.
Love from 🇳🇬
Dam this version is dope🔥🔥🔥
Emmett Till line was hard
Bro this version needs to get made mainstream
This song has been recorded after the Documentary’s one.
No it’s the original version
@prettylaurynn it was recorded after the documentary he didn't have the butterfly tattoo and that black Wallstreet chain when that album came out
2019
Dope
Yes with age he unfortunately never grew past this stage and it’s not a good look now , but with judgement from todays modern fans put aside you can’t deny that he really was a gifted lyricist that had almost poetic vibe to rap and at we could always appreciate how he payed homage to the legends that paved the way for the west coast in the rap game and kept their names alive to the newer era of rap/hip hop fans .
I love the game 🙏
This mf bro. Can flow like a mf ..
This was done way after during g unot and 50 beef. Look at his butterfly tattoo
“So we reach out to Kanye.”🙏🏾🙏🏾
He even acknowledged young Lebron back then when he wasn't as popular
He did 'like father like son 2'.. Time for a 'dreams 2' on the next album..
DR.DRE MADE HIM GO BACK AND WRITE A EVEN ✍🏾 BETTER VERSION ON THAT TRACK. PRODUCED BY: KanYe Mixed By: DR.DRE "DREAMS"
This version is a little strange lol not as refined but still dope
Most rappers alway do multiple versions on a song. Nas had another version of ether that was never release because he had sound effects of planes crashing because of aaliyah. Columbia records was going to black ball that album if it came out
He said some shit like he wish it was Jay and Dame instead of Aaliyah. 👀
@@marcuseversley3334yes he did
Even more name dropping than the first one
this the only version i listened to growing up
was there an actual studio-rec version? im craving for a clean edit of this one. lyrics would be cool as well
You're lucky AF! I've gone 14 years (since I began listening to Game) not knowing this version existed
Damn that shows whatever you're doing you can do it better
On my "motivational/ gym" Playlist
Told my math teacher going to a university was a dream
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Both versions deep
would have been a whole different world if every rap song would have been like this
This one is it
Clearly wrote this version for a “positive” campaign or something.
Damn this the Kidz Bop Dreams. lol
🤣🤣
🤣😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
🔥 🔥 🙏
Wow.
This 1s really positive the label probably said nope change it.
Nah he made this after the original came out. It just didn’t make sense to put this kidz bop type version out. Nobodies gonna care about it
Oh shit!
Back when the game could write and spit !
Does anybody know the back story to this?… this was clearly recorded AFTER the whole beef with 50 🤔
I liked the released version.
This is cool too. But everybody is getting a stiffy off of the names, he's announcing.
I used to dream about being a doctor until I heard magic Johnson had aid 😂😂😂😂😂
This version sounds soft, producer and others reworote to make it hard, still preferred the first version.
yeah this cringe af, bu you know the real version was made before this because he didnt have the butterfly tattoo when the documentary came out
@@SpiritualChills oh really?
Crazy
This is more lyrical then the official version
not at all bro
This not bad other ones more deep
@@ahmadrahim4952 this one is more deep lol what are you smoking
Probably too soft for the rap they had out at the time. However this is more in tune with the dream theme
Than
Wow. I prefer this. Why not release it
Game is fire just needs to respect where he came from g unit think thay could of bin so much more ❤
this aint gangsta ... this is the sweet version
you prolly a white boy
@@JohnDopeNotDoe wtf that got to do with anything dickhead?
@@teenoneofyabusiness1424 you probably a whiteboy too.
SMH
Want lyrics.
Write em down then lazy ass
And people say 50 wrote game's songs... 50 raps about himself, game raps about himself and everything going on in the world. 50 could never rap like this or do a song with Nas like Letter to the King
2023 and I’m just finding this out
I LIKE THIS VERSION IS OK
The irony and foreshadowing when he said I told my mom I can’t shot if I stay home and okay Xbox
"I can't concentrate hearing my Mum scream" 😔
This is like a pg version of tge song still ill tho 🔥🔥
💯
