The Game share some details of his nightmare past two weeks.
The Game is prepping the release of his long-awaited new album “DRILLMATIC – Heart vs. Mind”, which is scheduled to drop on August 12th. Before the project arrives, the Compton rapper took to his social media to share details of the nightmare past couple of weeks, where he was betrayed by his close ones.
“I’ve always prided myself on my transparency in tow with sharing every part of my life & myself with my family, friends & my fans,” he wrote. “The past two weeks have been a nightmare for me. I have witnessed disloyalty on levels unimaginable by people I’ve trusted with my heart, money, career & livelihood. Not only have I been backstabbed & betrayed.. I’ve been left to pick up the pieces alone.”
He continued, “I’m in no way shape or form angry with anyone for choosing to act in the manner they have as of recent & send love & well wishes from this day forward as there is no hate, malice or vengefulness in my heart. On top of that, I’ve been in therapy for 2 weeks for my back for inflamed muscles & a bruised tailbone from over working out. I also had an accident last night n cut my finger to the bone & had to recieve 6 stitches.”
The rapper reveals that he is taking a break from his phone, social media, and going out so he can focus on delivering the new album on the release date. “It’s been rough.. so I’ve decided to take a step back from my phone, social media & group settings, clubs etc so I can focus on completing my album so that my fans are happy with the delivery. The date is AUGUST 12TH 2022 & I promise you it will not change or move. I’ve given everything that I am to this album & I guarantee GREATNESS.”
“This break is for my MENTAL HEALTH & to afford myself the capacity to complete my album in full & stay committed to my release date,” he added.
The Game also thanked everyone for showering love for his recent LA Leakers freestyle where he spit bars over a Hit-Boy. “I thank everyone for supporting my most recent freestyle & all who have supported me throughout my career.”
The release date of Game’s 10th studio album had been postponed twice, first to July 1 and again to August 5. Hit-Boy will produce the Compton rapper’s record, which will be the official follow-up to his Born 2 Rap album from 2019. “Violence” and “Eazy,” which feature Kanye West, are the first two tracks from the upcoming album that the duo has released.
Despite the delays, the 41-year-old is certain that Drillmatic will be the year’s greatest project. “I know my album gone be the best album of 2022,” he said on Instagram back in May. “cause the energy feels like I just signed my deal. You’ve never heard me rap like this, I promise you.”
