The Game Recruits “DoggyStyle” Artist For “1992” Cover

    The Game is set to release what might be his most personal project yet with his 1992 mixtape.

    He released the cover art for the project with some of his memories from the year 1992, when he was 12 years old. He shows OJ Simpson’s police chase and the police beating Rodney King. He also shows himself as a young man wearing a Michael Jordan “Dream Team” T-shirt being pulled by the Bloods and Crips.

    The artwork is done by Joe Cool, who was released from prison the year that The Game is honoring. He did the iconic cover for Snoop Dogg’s DoggyStyle album and, in 2013, explained to HipHopDX the significance of the project.

    “I didn’t think it would be iconic, man,” he said. “And then when it sold as many as it sold, and I seen my shit up there, it just gave me…like damn. I can’t believe it. My artwork is out there, ’cause Snoop let it come. He gave me the opportunity, man. He got me a little bit of 15 minutes of fame up in the world. It’s been 20 years, man. He gave me that opportunity. Man I love him for it.”

    The Game’s 1992 project does not have a public release date, but is said to have no features and be produced by Bongo, who did multiple tracks for his  Documentary 2 and Documentary 2.5 albums.

    1. AAAAAARGH THATS FUCKING DOPE!!! OJ SIMPSON, THE RODNEY KING BEATING!! ONLY HOPE THE MUSIC BEFITS THE COVER! 1992 MIGHT BE A HERALDED HIP HOP CLASSIC FOR 2016 AND BEYOND!

    2. cool cover but it just goes to show why game is in noones top 10 even tho hes worthy of top 5..he takes peoples flows, he dick rides hot music, hes a 1 trick pony all he talks about is bloods and compton…and hes a name dropper.

      1. and lemme guess, you listen to drake and kanye and put them in the top 10 two guys who ride waves and dont write at all??

    3. When will this guy just be himself instead of pretending he is eazy e dr dre or snoop done nothing but swag jack them since he went solo and he keeps on keeping on just pathetic to see a grown man with an identity crisis hasnt put out a consistent solid album since the documentary which im pretty sure if it would not have been for dre managing it to begin with this guy would be known for nothing other than G-UNIT one hell of a legacy

    4. Cover is dope. Let’s just hope Dr Dre gonna produce it. Euthanasia Squad! free euthanasia for all sufferers worldwide! choice iz yourz!

    5. THE GAYME CANT MAKE A SONG WITH OUT SAYING FAMOUS PEOPLE NAMES CAN ANYBODY TELL ME A SONG GAYME GOT THAT HE’S NOT SAYING FAMOUS PEOPLES NAMES THAT NIGGA IS SO GARBAGE

      1. its one thing to say to not like him as a artist, but to say that he is garbage is reaching, now a young thug, bird man, designer, etc now that would be believable garbage.

    6. a full album of story telling is what I want to hear. I Dk if I can listen to another album of name drops and flexin. We need those real personal stories.
