Popular Consensus is that we acknowledge Game's contribution to Hip Hop but at this juncture we as a culture don't give a fuck either way about The Game. "Irrelevance" sounds mean spirited but we've moved on and will be remembered as a dope emcee of the 2000's 🫡

[@junioraltamontent.7582]

He didn't think Drake was gonna lose this bad and is doin damage control lol

[@keshawestmoreland5535]

“Game picks Game’s side” had to be the most honest thing he said in that whole defensive video. He’s clearly feeling some type of way about not being called personally and asked to join. The rest of the video was him name dropping in an attempt to assuage his wounded ego. Dudes like The Game are dangerous to be around because they will do anything in their attempts at success or getting what they want including stabbing those who’ve helped him in the back. He’s as self serving as they come. I see why everyone bumps heads with him. The good thing is that at least his self-serving manipulations are on full display for all to see. He’s too narcissistic to ever go get help.

[@SweetieMs]

It was the name dropping for me!! Like, ok, we all know Game is lame. But now you’re, as a “banger”, dropping names of people that the public should ask about you?!? What is that?? I can only imagine the goofy convos between him and Aubrey about ppl (they think) they put on 🙄

[@picassospajamas8078]

Justin, keep doing these reactions! I like that they’re free of what typically plagues reactions, namely overreactions. The vibe here reminds me what you used to do on Jude’s show.

[@vdotme]

Unnecessary reactions & 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️are worse than overreacting, especially when they stop the good material to tell viewers "Oh my god..... that's crazy......" and throws in a lot of unentertaining filler. Justin is my favourite hip hop journalist & you can tell the difference with these click thirsty amateurs.

[@DeTAYL.]

💯 I can respect it more if he just said that.

[@gdotleejr]

My thoughts on this is when game allowed Drake to be in Compton for that video that killed his relationship with TDE and Kendrick. Not one of his album have had a TDE member or affiliate on any of them since the documentary 2. I really feel a lot ppl in LA stop fucking with him honestly since then. It’s one thing to have him on the album dissing dot but for him to be in Compton for the video is crazy. Wack100 who was in the video, said if dot was aware of Drake being in Compton there is nothing game could have done to save him if he pulled up. If u notice Drake parts were shot in 3 areas and 2 of them were literally across from each other. I hope that Drake stimulus was worth chuck bruh. That dude loyalty, pride and ego has messed his career up.

[@mohamedfahad2364]

Funny thing is dot had a song with chuck in that same album. Chuck is such a slimeball

Game speaks about loyalty, but how many people has he worked with that he turned around and said something adversarial about? His revisionist history is jaw-dropping. His Aftermath album was shelved until 50 GAVE HIM SONGS and made hooks for him, and his repayment was what? G-UNOT, that's loyalty??? It's clear that Dre does not mess with Game as an artist, which is why Kendrick got the co-sign and Game did not. Game is talented but too insecure and it shows, every other thing out of his mouth is ABOUT SOMEBODY ELSE... either someone he knows, or messes with or hates or whatever. In this short video, he starts with I hate west coasters dying, but slides into his hard core, 10 toes down gangbanging bona fides... walking contradiction.

[@treayed]

Last comment, Game did not learn from being around 50 cent, you do not stand with my enemy and think that you and I are still cool. Watching Game makes me wish we still had Pop Smoke. Pop was setting himself up to be mentored by 50 and no telling how big he could have gotten.

Fans aren't going to care about his history because we all see how he's _currently_ moving and folks don't like it, so they called him out on it. He just don't like being called out on his BS and this video does him _no_ favors.

Game carried West Coast for ten years and now wants something for himself. Understandable. Didn't Kendrick say the same thing on "I chose me"? Although, after that he went and represented the whole coast

[@breakingdan]

At the 26 min mark, I think it’s about LA privileges. I don’t follow his social media but I’m guessing people were bothering him about the Pop Out show and him not being there. It’s petty to do that to him but people do that kind of stuff and it obviously bothered him that people might be thinking or saying that he’s not allowed in Compton anymore or that he wasn’t invited to the Pop Out due to him going against Kendrick. Since you said you don’t understand LA gang culture, some people for sure interpreted Game dissing Ross or reposting Drake’s content as Game taking a side. He went against Kendrick and also anything attached to Kendrick like LA, Compton, Aftermath/Dr. Dre, and even his colors since they both come from Piru backgrounds. That’s why he keeps saying, “I’m still in LA, I’ve been out here.” He’s saying he’s still allowed in his hood where he grew up in and that he still visits. That no matter what he did he’s not getting run out of his hood. Whether that’s accurate or not I have no idea but I think that’s what he’s trying to convey.

Justin, I don’t expect you to say this because you’re a public figure and as you stated the beginning this is something you don’t like to speak about. But I’ll say it. Did he really just say everyone knows how solid he is and how he moves? This is the guy that stabbed Dr. Dre in the back, stab, 50 Cent, in the back, stabbed him and Eminem in the back, and black. Sam won’t even clear the Nipsey feature because he doesn’t even have the balls to stand up to his manager to say “hey I go around and do all these interviews and tell everyone how much I love Nipsey so can you quit going on Clubhouse and saying the foul shit about him?” He did hold the west down at one point, but let’s not act like this dude is solid because he’s a professional snake. He’s literally burned every fucking bridge he’s had for clout and album rollouts and it hasn’t worked once. Also, you know you have fallen off when you have to make a 17 minute video because you’re mad at what the fans are saying. Drake is having the worst moment of his life and you don’t see Drake making videos arguing with fans.

I think the big issue The Game has is with this idea that he was barred from the Pop-Out. I can understand his frustration if that's the case, because Compton is his community and there's few worse ways to slander a man like Game than to say that he is no longer good in his own community (especially after all he's done for Compton).

Thank you! I'm working to improve my reaction videos. I appreciate the compliment.

You had enough loyalty to Drake to go at Ross and not support KDot over Snake I mean Drake .Its also obviously in your head game that you should’ve backed KDot being from the west so now you reap what you sow

We need more Justin and Rob markman and less of the rest of these “commentators” Salute my guy

🎉🎉🎉

[@AmateurAnalyst013]

What his absence means is a simple answer: Game is not currently in good with the ICUC. They had a party celebrating the city and he was a no-show. A blatant no-show.

Uncle rico of compton

Is this a Belly reference? Ironically Belly 2, which The Game starred in, SUCKED. 😂

i’m only half way through but i saw an interview with dj hed today (posted on XXL’s channel) and it was great, and had similar messages to this one

[@me7659]

I took the same thing you took. He seems hurt he wasn’t invited. Seems hurt he wasn’t the one doing what Dot did. It was just rambling, looking for validation, although he says he isn’t

[@sheluvharvey7758]

I checked out exactly at 5 minutes, I really don't give a damn what the game have to say because I don't believe in any way! He played too many games, get it his name is the game and he play a lot of games😂😂😂🎉🎉😂🎉

[@feodiente9460]

This was extremely long winded.. Knowing damn well he wanted to parttake in basically Hip-Hop History.. he actually SHOULD be mad..💯

[@JavaWithJune]

I feel like there's something going on cuz on the hip hop tour of LA they drove by Kendrick's school and didn't stop whereas 2pac, Nipsey Hussle & NWA were given a ton of respect. Game's uncle is the proprietor of the tour company, he parks his lowrider in front, and he frequently gives the tour himself.

[@phillybriscoe4945]

The Game must need some attention. 😢😢😢😢

[@mstaz1688]

He always looking for attention when the spotlight is on someone else. He did the same thing with Nipsey’s death and tried making it about him.

[@CrustyDonutts]

The Game stays taking Self Inflicted L's, really from the beginning to the end. I kinda hate getting to know this mvp, and at this rate we won't have to anymore 🤔

[@NASCAR24FAN100]

It always feels like game is always trying to be in the spotlight to prove something and generate publicity for an album. Notice how he plugs the documentary 3.

[@Ankh-he3wi]

Of course....he doesn't get publicity through big corporate media like mainstream guys do.... this is how he promotes his art❤

[@victoriaoswaldino]

Guy looks desperate sheshh
