In the past 2 years, there hasn’t been an artist to make such an impact on the rap industry than Compton native The Game. After his multi-platinum album “The Documentary” dropped in 2005, Game’s status within the industry exploded, launching him into superstar status.
Even though one would think that The Game would continue to make an impact on Hip-Hop by being the West Coast’s most notable figure, it now seems that Game has other ideas, as the rapper revealed in QD3’s latest installment of “Beef IV” that his third album would, most likely, be the last of his career.
“I think three classic albums are good for me, you know? I got my point across. I was a prominent figure on the West Coast and a bigger figure in Hip-Hop as a whole. I think I made my impact enough for my name to be said and remembered.”
During the interview, Game also went on to thank Dr. Dre for launching his career: “Dr. Dre, working with him and him molding me and and helping place me among Hip-Hop’s elite MC’s is good enough for me,” he said. “Last album. One more to go.”
Being in the spotlight and having been involved with numerous beefs, most notably with G-Unit, Game explained that as of now, it was time to take a break: “Right now I’m taking a break from Hip-Hop and enjoying time with my family and my friends.”
There hasn’t been an official statement by Game regarding the situation outside of the “Beef IV” DVD, however it remains to be seen if The Game will actually follow through with his comments.

nope thought he was wack when he was down with them and he is even worst now
fact is he still work 4 50 as long as 50 get a cut just like eazy e did dre, doc know the deal yall dude's talk about this dude like he just left the unit he got kicked out 4 being a bitch you don't wanna beef wit nas,fat joe, and the lox but u will come at jay z 50 help's you go 4 or 5 times platinum but u won't ride 4 that dude, make me rich I'm slaying any nigga u want let's get it.
good f*ckin riddens it's about time there's only room 4 one 50 and he is not 50
game ran out of names s that all!!!!
maybe he needs to spend some time in europe and get to know some celebs over there.this guy looks defeated even though he shot the most bullets, he still lost the war.this guy lost money of his last album after paying all those hired help.50 and dre in his pockest cost him lesss.that album was budgeted to go atleast 2x plat and he lost money on that.now he is the leader of BWS and he say that he has one album left? what a general he is, has he done any collabs with his artist to bring them any attention?nope
game lost and 50 was not even fighting
why games fans are thinkin that this guy is on top and killin g-unit, game know better and he front like he did something.this guy dont even get tour dates bcuz he cant perform live we know that for a fact.he relies on album sales and any rapper will tell you that aint shit ASCPAP check aint feeding the crew.he got alot of cali real niggas out for his head and them paid security is $$$$$$$$$$.so he need to do a mase move or retire and get out the kitchen.

good f*ckin riddens it's about time there's only room 4 one 50 and he is not 50
well dis is VERY stupid ta say cuz him an 50 r very oppisite........ an like i said b4 all yal dat thought Ja Rule was hot, jump on 50 dick cuz 50 was sayin how much a fag Ja was 4makin dem girl songs an singing on hooks.............now look who da fuck is doin it 50! so it aint even cool ta come at Game like dat
on sum real shit....
o an dis aint got nutttin 2 do wit 50 so y bring him up? niggas on here callin him a bitch but everybody in G-unit a bitch except 50 cuz he jus a snitch but dats ova wit. buck got robbed an GAME tried ta help but buck was scared, banks got shot aint do shit an yayo beats on kids wow! an i don c nobody talkin bout how bad banks cd did...y is dat? yal aint like he wasnt killin dem on mixtapes, 300 bars an running was enough said. damn mafuckas jus wanna c an hear wut dey wanna c an hear.........
man its fucked up to hear that, but what if he is doing this just to get a album produced br dre, and have features wit nas and jay-z because they believe he is really quittin. or, niggas did say he was bipolar, he look mad sad in that vid, maybe he just goin through one of his episodes. everybody please keep the fifty/g unit/ g unot bullshit outta here, cuz this article is about game. damn, game is a good lyricist, i just dont think he was ready for the rap game.
all i can say is...hip hop wise he will be missed , whenever he decides to leave, he brought the westcoast bakk...whether yall say he dint or not!...he did!...the west was dead til game kame out...and im a huge westcoast music fan!...but snoop was gettin old and still is to me lol...dre aint puttin out albums...Bishop Lamont and Glasses Malone are koo...but they aint eva gon be where game is at now...PERIOD!, yall haters kan keep deepthroatin 50 all u want...but lyrically Game kan smash on most kats in the industry...HATER OR NOT u kant deny the impact hes had on HIP HOP and the west with only 2 albums....
I listen to the Game sometimes but I could give a shit less. He has no more material left. Only for so long can you rap about Dre 40's and car accessories especially I'll hate on Game when he said he didn't need the Doc then almost every beat on Doctor's Advocate(there you go again with the Dre thing) sounded like ripoffs of Dre beats. Also to this guy above^^ Child of Hip Hop if you were real you would know lyrically the Game is not good at all. Lyrically some bubble-gum rapper would kill him.
Reasons why the Game got famous.
1.) He's from Compton.
2.) He signed w/ Dre.
3.) He talks shit about everyone.
4.) White kids envy him.
5.) 50 wrote half of his 1st and better album.
i reckon itz a publicity stunt because he didnt get as much as expected from doctors advocate so if peeps think he retiring they might by his last(3rd) album and do what jay z did and come back lol i was guna say mase but mase aint really back??
and the game is the best mc to come out of the westcoast in a long time proberly since xzibit...
but in saying that his last 2 were classics (maybe not on sales with DA) and a 3rd classic would be enough to leave the game a legend how many albums dr dre have??
2 solos and 1 on the way not that games on dres level but 3 classics all u need in the game peace out..
What A Pussy The Only Reason He Blew Up Was Because Of G-Unit. I Dont Care What Anyone Say No One Knew Dude Until He Was On The Unit. Well Maybe Some Cats In Cali Knew Him But He Diddnt Get Famous Until He Was Screamin G-Unit. Cannibal I Also Agree With You Hes Ran Out Of Material I Mean You Can Only Rap About Gold Datons For So Long. Plus Hes Screamed Out Every Rapper Since 94 On His Raps. Use To Really Like The Game. I Thought He Had Class After He Was Like Im Done With This Beef Shit But He Made Like 15 More Songs About The Unit After That. Thats All
unbanned youngazeez on datpiff
he aint on that rap shit and doctors advocate was better than the massacre and i bet his last album will be better than curtis
THIS NIGGA JUST DOING THAT MASTER P, JAY Z, TOO SHORT SHIT.
the real — sayyyy you right about that shit if 50 was helpin me get money shitt I will ride for that nigga no lie...
that nigga game look like a bom in that shit ..
DAMN GAME! 3 ALBUMS AINT ENOUGH!
1 OF DA GREATEST MCS OF OUR TIME, CALLIN IT QUITES IN HIS PRIME! HOMIE BROUGHT DOWN FAGGOT ASS 50 N GAY-UNIT. SHIT DIS GONNA SINK THE WESTCOAST WHO ELSE CAN STEP UP FROM DA WEST N DO WAT GAME DID???
Fuck this sucks!!!!
The Game is one of the best Rappers right now!!!
Fuck G-Unit!!!!
Ever since Gayho i mean yayo came home every one started flopping!!!
50 new single aint doing enough to sell plat!!!!
Game is gon bust a hovA!!!
He saying this just to try and cover up that he knows no body but g-unit haters will buy his shit and he knows hes washed up.
50 is not around to write his shit anymore so he can barley put out a 3rd album. then he will have nuthin left.
bitch ass faget
Game is a dissapointment, that muthafucca played every1, he aint no great rapper he couldnt do shit on his own, the game is nothing but a joke, look at that song he made dissing 50 and Jay they didnt even pay attention to his lame ass,wasted talent is all he is, and none of his CD s have been classic he aint even one of hip hops greats. xzibit, dre, snoop, and cube still run the west coast, once that nnigga got a butterfly on his face i knew he wasnt a rapper just a straight bitch looking to make a quick buck, wasted talent oh well i want his new album to come out that way he dont have to see his gaywallstreet bullshit
ya i saw this yesterday :-/
Um lemme just say Game always was wack to me I never understood how he got in the Game! Will he be remembered yes because selling 5 million records is a big thing especially in todays Hip Hop World! But he's no Snoop or Ice Cube or Dr.Dre he's not that type of Westcoast artist. & what is he taking a break from READING RHYMES!
Now The Doc fuckin with him with a long stick
Very disapointing alot of talent wasted
He didnt have a chance to make a real classic album cause all dude did was make plenty enemies
Battle Rap is a part of hiphop roots
beefin just played out
Dude knows his career isnt gonna last anyways. with that diss @ jay, em, and 50 leaken, his days are numbered either way u look @ it...
^^^^ good point. that was not a good move by game. im a game fan but i dont know wat he was thinking wen he went @ jay and Em.
Damn niggas aint sayin G-Unot no more. I respected the Game but 50 was right
GAME BEST MC ON THE W/C BUT RETIRE??? TOO EARLY BUT I RESPECT DUDE AS A LYRICIST

first off little boy fifty was talking about them duets ja was doing like that rainy day shit wit mjb or that shit wit j lo if theres a singer on the hook fif don't sign if it's just him he does the harmonizing on the hook he been doing it since power of a dollar on ghetto curan and he was doing it on you should be here and after my cheadder and second game and fif aren't the same that's my point game want's 2 b fif I don't understand why people act like when he was down wit the unit he didn't have fif dick all in his mouth shit he had buck and banks dick in his mouth 2 now that he got kicked out they all bitches and snitches but the fact is he was still screaming g-unit at one point in time and singing them dudes praises when will you game fans realize that he is fake did u not c the change of heart tape did u not hear the girl say he took here to a male strip club did you not see the man crying on t.v did you not c the butterfly tattoo wake up and smell the folger's crystals the boy is a fag ya dig. and how is he one of the best banks brought the flow to the masses and he bit it/ got a tear drop a ghetto pass and ran wit it/
all game does is say the same shit over and over out of 300 bars only sixteen actually be alright the dude is so far over rated it's pathetic.

if he woulda stood with g-unit
he would be on a different level

he fvcked up by not being wit g-unit
cuz he woulda been gettin crazy hooks by 50
he's lost in his world, cant rap bout sht anymore
thats why he doin name callin to have his name out
i wanna know what his contract lookin like

cuz he cant just "retire"
but i bet he'll keep throwing mixtape jabs at niggas
fuck that old dick riding fake ass faggot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
3 albums ......what the fuck!!!!!!!!!!!!!he trying to be dre .....
NIGGA YOU AINT DRE
Well i guess he did me a favor because i was really tired of hearing about him making up with rappers then breaking up with then all over again.
Damn Game is leaving the game? I doubt it, but it could happen. Just cause he says shit... we know how that goes lol might wanna get a few more sales wit the anticipation of his album and then drop an album the following year. You guys are dumb for believing this shit lol He ain't goin no where...
i would be ready 2 leave the industry too 5o killed g-unot
Every body leaves tha game, than comes back. It's all pub. niggaz gone go out n cop his next cd think'n its the last and its gonna have his best music ever...than 2 years later he comes back.
Besides hes still tryin to get BWS off tha ground, he'll be here for a while.
This dude giving himself too much credit. The Game have some lyrical skills but duke sound too much like dre, No personality on his latest album.Anyway bless

thank you
these stans fell to realize that
they must be blinded by hate
keep on hatin' niggas!!
keep on hatin' on sum name-dropping from Game
but you think that is a superstar just because he has great albumsales???
that nigga only talks about money, bitches and cars, he's a snitch
HE STOLD his name from a real gangster
He Lied over the 9 gunshots -> only 3!!!!!!!!
the people that love 5-0 are dumb ya know... take it as a compliment...
and okay i'm also against the fact he's droppin too much names, i know
but he makes good music, nice beats...
that sampler of Curtis album was wack all the beats were wack, expect the ons wit Robin Thicke...
lol the games career is done, lol, his career is based around 3 main components: G-unit, Dr.Dre, and being a blood. People are sick of hearing G-unit disses, Dre Shoutouts, and red rag stories. Peace game.
All I heard in DA was Dr.Dre name with out the Unit he ain't shit anyway

I don't know why people hate the Game LOL it's a lot of haters lately .. I mean I should be a true hater for him going @ Jay... but u gotta respect dudes way of life. I guess its that Cali shit... everyone isn't the same
lmao D-Rid3er i can tell u keep ridin on gayme
i think 3 albums is enough to be a legend in the game..look at 50 he got two goin on three, and he's most def made his mark, but like some dude said ^ , you actually gotta DO SOMETHING! he wont ever have his own Label..and if he does come back, nobody's gonna wanna hear his bullshit... its time for somone else to bring the westcoast back!
they hate because he goes at g unit crazed you know that
then they say his name dropin and how he always says dre
the dont say nothin the way buck always says 50
the way 50 always yells out em
how jay z always yellin out michael jordan
they just hate game because he dissed 50 thats it
like i say if he was still yellin g unit nobody would be hating
not even this sight
there are too many groupies .. i can understand being a fan but shit stop living and breathing your artist. for someone to deny Games wordplay or some of the shit he says and comes up wit plain hate and its visible. i bet you even wit sales being so shitty right now, if Game was still on Gunit, his album would sale at least 2 mill minimum. Game lost a lot of worldwide fans cause of his beef wit 50 but what can you do? The fans in other countries of hip hop aren't like us. 50 is just as big as MJackson out there....
I'll def give his album a chance to see what he has to say and see what his singles are about
If a nigga step on my white Air, Ones
Since red, rum
Ready here I, come
GAME IS TOP 5 LYRICISTS RIGHT NOW. PLEASE NIGGAS DON'T HATE. PLUS HE GOTTA BE AT LEAST TOP 5 RAWEST NIGGAS OUT. I FUCK WITH THE BI- POLAR ASS NIGGA

Im sure that it might not be the same but it's evolving into something that we'll enjoy a lot more.......it's like growing your hair out. OLD sCHOOL RAP is like that fresh fade and were going through that ugly stage right now...so just put your hat on and chill my niggas we gon be bolted down soon enough......
Yo you niggas need 2 quit talkin bout game.. U faggots hate em cause he's THAT NIGGA... Both his albums got NICE reviews. SO I ASK "HOW IS HE GARBAGE"? East coast niggas hate the west.. Get off 50's dick I know u niggas don't really think his singles are hot? They get ZERO airplay.. He ain't creating a buzz. The only buzz is the name of the album.. Thank KILLA for that. He sings he said he don't fuck wit the hood AT ALL no more.. If u niggas met 50 he wouldn't sign your cd or no shit... The nigga thinks he's jesus.. FUCK OUTTA HERE.. Game has a history of what he did.. niggas know out here... GUNOT is done like a burnt steak...I like the old 50. I fuck wit that nigga.. NOT CURTIS!!! YAYO IS FRUITY!!
