The hate be real to the 100 people who gave this video a thumbs down
When they gonna interview Eminem
Also everyone remembers 300 bars. But personal fave for me was 200 bars and 240 bars dissing Loc
Game was a big idol of mine in HS. Dude looks like he drinks alot now. Face looks bloated. Respect though.
Who's the painter. Love the art work. I need that in my life. Help
Yo to see the Game grow up is fuckin awesome!! Major fuckin props! Ima east coast mc but always loved The Games flow. Great interview
The game to me is the most underrated legend In HipHop. He is tied for my favorite artist with J.Cole. Also one of HipHop's most lyrical rappers but is never mentioned with the greats. Only real fans know how immensely talented he is.
Valiums
That West Coast treaty part was funny as hell, amazing interview
'He actually said 'YOU 38 AND YOU STILL RAPPING ERGHHHH ''
The game and all g unit helping to make get rich and die trying that is bull shit
That mary J joint is a fucking banger!
That jacket is fresh asf
I'm mad he did not mension RED, that's my favourite album, like WFT Game??
The interviewer really thinks Game had a better verse than Em smh Game even admitted EM jus killed me on my own shit
Game is forever corny, like 95% of rappers from the west i dont understand how anyone from NY or even outside of California can like his music.last song he had that was actually kinda good was the one with Keyshia Cole, and that was because of her. after that he didnt drop anything worth listening to.dude cant make a hook to save his life
Michael Jackson wanted to do music with game and 50 that's dope
Why he looks so white? Lol
Game – never be friends and Hard Liquor two of my fave game songs
R.E.D and LAX are my two favorite albums
50 cent made the game lets be real
Bang along and start from scratch are still classics.
Game really needed to out preform the documentary to go down like a Em or Jay z and he never did if u ask me !
Kurupt is from philly originally then moved to Cali thats bullshit sayin he’s from Mississippi!!!
31:34
A true role model, I really applaud this man for putting 50 guns on the streets and into the hands of retarded gobshites with no respect or value for life, well done
Diddys "main studio" in NYC was Quads Studio Game all of the NYC greats made classic from up out of Quads.
Mf doom
Major giggling…
He a hustla….????
T.T.G trained to go.
It's nice to see that he gives 50 props in this, and they're not on some salty beef BS.
Aftermath been here the beats been knocking
The Game wiped the floor with 50 Snitch ass.
The completely Destroyed 50 Snitch career. Wiped the floor with his ass.
When the interviewer burst out laughing at the Michael Jackson voice ??
Can we talk about how his grills changed how we speaks?
X is from Detroit….
200 x 50 is 10000 not 2000
sucks to see him and 50 beef. 50 gave this man his best singles on the documentary, and for all the bs to happen, it just sucks to see.
He became lightskin
R. I. P. Nipsey
Game's music always make me feel like i went back to the 90,'s
