The Game releases ‘The Documentary III’

Overview

Rapper The Game has released ‘The Documentary III’, a 24-track studio album arriving nearly 11 years after his previous installment. The project, executive produced by Tommy Brown, features high-profile collaborators including Drake, Snoop Dogg, Lil Wayne, Black Thought, and Kanye West. The track ‘40 Nights’ reunites The Game with West and the production duo Mike & Keys, reportedly addressing West’s past controversial behavior and antisemitic remarks.

The release has generated significant discussion regarding The Game’s relationship with Kendrick Lamar. While some listeners speculated that lyrics contained subtle jabs at Lamar—specifically a mention of a ‘GNX’ in the intro track ‘Geezus’—The Game has denied these claims. He clarified that the lyric refers to a personal experience where a former partner disliked riding in his all-black GNX because it resembled a ‘gang-banging car’, maintaining that any connection to Lamar is purely coincidental.

On the track ‘Geezus’, The Game also expressed a refusal to take sides in the Drake and Kendrick Lamar feud, noting that being from the West Side means one does not have to choose. While some associates of Lamar have dismissed theories regarding subliminal disses, the album continues to draw listener speculation regarding his stance on recent hip-hop conflicts.
