Wouldn't Get Far is the name of the third single from The Game's sophomore album Doctor's Advocate. The song and is produced by and features a verse from Kanye West.
In the song, "Wouldn't Get Far", The Game mentions, by both name and alias, many up-and coming and established video vixens, models, and actresses. The women addressed include: Vida Guerra, Gloria Velez, Nicole Alexander and Karrine Steffans (who are also known and mentioned as "Hoopz" and "Superhead", respectively), Kelis, Halle Berry, Beyoncé Knowles, Toccara Jones, Charli Baltimore, Gabrielle Union, and Melyssa Ford.
In the song, only Melyssa Ford is mentioned in a somewhat positive light. Despite this, Melyssa Ford said she was disappointed with both The Game and Kanye West for creating the song.link
After the final verse of the song, The Game, in an homage to his West Coast idols 2pac and Snoop Dogg, can be heard talking in a similar style as Snoop Dogg did in 2Pac's song All Bout U from the album All Eyez on Me.
