During a conversation with Letty Martinez, Game explained why he called Lupe Fiasco “weird” on his The Documentary 2 track “Dollar & A Dream.” The conversation veered into a discussion on whether artists change over time or fans’ taste change over time. He also reacts to fans who say they want the “Old Game.”

“He is fucking weird,” Game said. “Thing is, you obviously can’t have the Old Game. I was 23 years old. I was bald-head then. If you talking about the Old Game, what’s in my heart and what my music is, I’m currently fighting three court cases, criminal. I’m currently still in the hood. My grandfather died today. My brother Big Fase still lives on Black Wall Street. So when you say the Old Game and you make it seem like I’m not the Old game, you’re disrespecting the makeup of me and who I am and you’re playing yourself.

“I think that people that say they want the Old Game, you might not be the old fan. Game don’t change. You just might be different. Because 10 years past for me and my career, those same 10 years have passed for you as a fan. Your ears might be different. You might be a different fan. Check yourself.

“Personally, on the Lupe front, maybe I might be lost now or maybe Lupe is just evolving and Game can’t see it. I miss the old Lupe records when it was about Chi-Town and it was hood and maybe I’m being what I’m telling other people not to be. But that’s just being a fan of music. Some people evolve and you are able to embrace it. Then other people evolve and you get mad. That’s why when some people might be like, ‘Game, you changed’ or ‘I like the Old Game,’ you might be what I’m being when I say I like the old Lupe. At the end of the day it’s being a Hip Hop fan and being critical and wanting the music that you want.”

In a recent conversation with HipHopDX, Game also discussed the possibility that he’ll serve jail time.

“I think if a sentence is handed down, Game gonna turnaround, I’ma connect my wrists and I’m gonna put on my handcuffs and I’m gonna do what I gotta do as a man,” he said. “The only thing that sort of concerns me is being absent from children for a second. I don’t like the idea of that. But you gotta do what you gotta do as a man. Ain’t nobody tell me to punch that guy. He had an agenda, too. I think it was a civil agenda but still, I’m mid-30s, I should’ve been a little more composed. I should’ve kept my hands to myself. So the consequences of that, I’m probably gonna have to sit down for a minute if I got to. If I gotta sit down for a minute, I’m gonna do it with all due respect to everything and who I am. Then I get out. I ain’t murdered nobody. I ain’t serving crack to the President or nothing. We’ll see what that is. We’ll cross that bridge when we get to it, but I’m a man. I’m gonna stand up behind everything that I’ve done in my life and I’m gonna keep it like that until I die.”
