The Game to drop “DRILLMATIC – Heart vs. Mind” on August 12th.
The Game has been prepping the release of his long awaited new album “DRILLMATIC – Heart vs. Mind” for some weeks now, and it has already been pushed back a couple of times. But today the rapper officially unveiled the Artwork and confirmed the release date for the album.
The Compton rapper took to his social media to reveal that the project is arriving on August 12th, with executive production from Hit-Boy, and co-executive production from Kanye West, Wack 100 and more.
“My apologies for the delay but fans sometimes don’t understand how hard it is behind the scenes trying to clear samples on over 30 records & to get publishing splits, agreements, mixes approved, featured artists agreements & a million other things done in order to have a clean, flawless album put together & released,” he wrote. “What I can guarantee you is that I personally put my heart & soul into this album from beginning to the end & anyone who’s come by my studio or heard this album will tell you that it is everything you expected it to be. Everyone also wanted me to not put 30 songs on my album which again held us up due to the amount of music I’m pushing out but I felt & always feel my fans deserve more. This date gives me time to properly set up, get visually prepared & present to you another classic. I appreciate all of you for being patient throughout this process with me & I can’t wait for you to hear what we’ve done.”

The release date for Drillmatic: Heart vs. Mind was initially scheduled for June 17, however it was postponed many times. Neither The Game nor the clearances are being exaggerated.

Regarding the album’s name, The Game revealed that Nas, whose 1994 debut Illmatic it honors, granted him his approval. Lil Durk, a well-known Chicago drill rapper, was also offered the title by Game, though he obviously declined the offer.
Drillmatic’s Heart vs. Mind album has already dropped two songs, “Eazy” and “Violence,” both featuring Kanye West. It is the follow-up to 2019’s Born 2 Rap, which at the time was declared to be The Game’s final album.
