Compton-based rapper Game may sign to Cash Money Records. The label's most successful artist Lil' Wayne and his mentor, founder Bryan "Birdman" Williams have expressed interest in signing the rapper. Game engaged in a bitter fallout with his former rap crew G-Unit. |
After nearly ten years being signed to Interscope Records, the rapper is thinking seriously about his future on the label. There's rumors that the rapper may jump onto Cash Money Records. Game said signing with Cash Money is only one of a few potential post-Interscope moves he's considering. His most recent album Jesus Piece is to be release later this month and its laced with members of the Young Money Cash Money Billionaires (YMCMB) crew.
The first single Celebration has rapper Lil' Wayne and Tyga alongside Chris Brown and Wiz Khalifa.
Cash Money founder Birdman dropped hints earlier this year:
I don’t really know his situation. I don’t like to get into talks with other people who are signed to other labels because I wouldn’t want them Niggas fucking with nothing that’s mine. So I show respect to whoever they with. I know I told Game, if the time come I would love to sign Game. I think he’s a very talented artist… But when time comes, I’m gonna be there for him too.”
Game with Dr. Dre. |
Under the whim of Dr. Dre. The rapper got signed onto Aftermath Records soon after. In order to make a namesake for Game, he was later signed to G-Unit Records and paired with the label's founder 50 Cent.
For the time being, the rapper released his The Documentary. It was heavily produced by Dr. Dre with features from 50 Cent, Eminem, Snoop Dogg and many others. The album was very successful and help Game become a voice of the West Coast.
The rapper engaged in a feud with G-Unit after 50 Cent dismissed him over the radio. 50 Cent claimed that the rapper wasn't giving him or Dr. Dre credit for his major label success. This incident led to a shooting outside the New York radio station. A person was injured.
Jimmy Iovine ordered 50 Cent and Game to end feud. |
Game released the controversial and longest rap diss ever. It was titled 300 Bars And Runnin'. The single went after each member of G-Unit, took shots at Jay-Z and Roc-A-Fella Records. The rapper claims credit as the guy who "destroyed" 50 Cent's reputation.
Since the debut release, Game had went on without the influences of Dr. Dre and 50 Cent. Although numerous attempts to settle the feud with 50 Cent failed, Game continues friendship with Dr. Dre. The rapper released The Doctor's Advocate, L.A.X. and The R.E.D. Album under Geffen Records.
50 Cent has also feuded with Young Buck and Lloyd Banks. He kicked them out of the group and plans on regrouping as well. 50 Cent is planning on releasing his fifth and possibly final album on Interscope.
The G-Unit fallout has been a disaster for each party. 50 Cent hasn't released a full album since 2009. He semi-retired from rapping and focused on building his investments and part-time acting! Young Buck was kicked out of the group and engaged also in a feud with 50 Cent. The rapper struggling to pay his debts and is currently in federal prison over that. Young Buck patched up his issues with Game in 2010. They've record singles together. He also hasn't released a full album since 2007. Lloyd Banks and Tony Yayo were dropped from Interscope Records after their releases failed to chart success. Lloyd Banks went on to record his third album on EMI and is currently feuding with 50 Cent. Game also suffered setbacks with his previous albums since leaving G-Unit. Last year's release The R.E.D. Album hasn't lived up to the previous albums.
50 Cent is signed to Aftermath and Shady Records under the whim of veteran rappers Dr. Dre and Eminem.
