Shelved Material Fuels Rumors Of Game/Aftermath Beef

A message from Bishop Lamont [click to read] reportedly targeting The Game [click to read] could very well signal the next chapter in what was thought to be a squashed beef between Dr. Dre‘s camp and his former protege. Few know the actual contents of the video. After the viral clip was originally posted on the website HipHopOfficial.com, the YouTube video was promptly removed by Universal Music Group. Whatever was said on the video certainly didn’t help squelch rumors that Bishop dedicated the following bars from the unreleased Detox single “You Ain’t Fresh” [click to view] at Game:

“Niggas name drop they whole fuckin album through/you should’ve called your single phone book part two/nigga that ain’t fresh/stop living in the past/where the fuck’s the progress/your progress report on it got all F’s/you need a parent-teacher conference/I’m daddy in the flesh.”

When interviewed by HipHopDX over the summer, Bishop said there was no bad blood between himself and The Game. He added that he saw the possibility of a future collaboration, but some sort of reconciliation with 50 Cent [click to read] and Dr. Dre would have to be made. Bishop added that he, Game and Dre‘s mothers were at a recent function together, and everything was peaceful between all involved parties.

The Game has a DVD entitled Life After the Math, which will be released independently through Polychrome Pictures on Oct 21. In an associated press release the DVD boasts “rare never-before-seen footage of modern legends like Katt Williams, Dr. Dre, Snoop, 50 Cent and Kanye West to name a few.”

Additionally, The Game dedicated a few lines to the subject on his L.A.X. album [click to read] on the track “Dope Boys” [click to read] saying, “And tell Dr. Dre to pick up a phone/before I crawl through his window like ‘Nigga I’m home.'”

For his part, Dr. Dre hasn’t publicly spoken about Game‘s removal from G-Unit, and subsequently Aftermath/Interscope in about a year. When asked about the lingering feud between 50 Cent and The Game, Dre offered the following to GQ magazine.

“I’ve said, ‘When you guys are ready to make some music, let’s get down,'” says Dre. “All that other stuff, that’s not for me. This is something they created, so it’s something they have to handle. I don’t feel I have to choose a side. I know these guys, and I know nobody is gonna back down.”
