The Game’s highly-anticipated Drillmatic has been delayed once again. The Hit-Boy-produced project was originally slated to drop on June 17 but was pushed back to July 1 after The Game admonished Rolling Stone for snubbing his 2005 debut The Documentary on its list of the “200 Greatest Hip Hop Albums Of All Time.”
The Game revealed on Tuesday (June 21) that the project is now being pushed back once again to July 8, but to quell fans’ disappointment, he’s dropped off a new single from the album titled “Violence.”
“Heard y’all want REAL RAP again,” Game wrote of the track on Instagram. We got you. Game x Hit-Boy woke up & chose ‘VIOLENCE’ today !!!!!!”
Game has continued to hype up Drillmatic throughout 2022. He’s called it the album of the year on numerous occasions and has continued to preach that the 30-track album will certify him as the GOAT.
“I know my album gone be the best album of 2022, ’cause the energy feels like I just signed my deal,” he wrote on Instagram back in May. “You’ve never heard me rap like this, I promise you.”
The Game Denies 50 Cent Is Responsible For His Career: 'At That Time In L.A, I Was It'
“When it drops, I promise you that if you put your ear to it you will then understand why I’m the best rapper alive,” he continued. “My controversy has always stepped on my greatness, but that’s all about to change. This album has a strong hold on being the best album of my career.
“It’s just different… the last time I pulled over & wrote in my car was ‘I don’t need your love’ on The Documentary. Only thing is, back then it was a U-Haul. Today I pulled over the G-Wagon on Labrea because I couldn’t believe how dope the shit in my head was.”
Listen to “Violence” below.
This is lame AF. C’mon Game this is pathetic. Name-dropping is all you can do besides instigate beef. Please retire permanently.
This n**** is officially out of ideas. Most his bars were either name drops or bitten lines. If this is a preview,then this album needs a redo.
Ya last line is a bar fr lol
So many gunshots it’s starting to sound like violins??
Game: you’ve never heard me rap like this.
Also Game: new song is the same shit he always does.
Eminem standing by his diamond plaques laughing at this change of heart
I hope the rest of the album isn’t as bad as this track.
Dumbass can’t get his own shit together, yet wants to criticize everyone else…
Damnnnn this is garbage..
The production even sounds cheesy
This is bad, I mean real bad.
Game pop name drop same hop blame doc shame fuck
He saw what Drake did so now he wants to do what Drake did, lol
Wtf happen to game??? He is way too hyped up on his own shit
Name droppibg like a motherfucker!
First track with Kanye to me sounded like he bite Kendrick style, flow, etc. Now this track he bite alot of people shit. Jeezy, Jay, Ross.
This mfer just called himself “Geezy”!
Aint nobody calling him that shit
Damn, he dropped everything including his pants on this one. He took a shit all over this wack beat. Now it’s liquid diarrhea.
The beat hard but he his style same ol name dropping
Think Game been getting high smelling his own farts cuz this is pure ass
Song was so bad that he took the video down lol
Delete Delete Delete Delete Delete
This is what ConYe did for Game’s career more than Dre, he taught him the art of being a dick and capitalizing off it with delay after delay and stirring shit etc. This just another Game regret like that dumb ass butterfly tat on his facking face
he really setting himself up for failure/dissapointment lol…but hey, if he puts out 30tracks as good as the stuff on The Documentary then fairplay
A lot of hate for Game on this site comments and not only in this article… What did he do? I always liked the dude, Love the RED album and LAX and doctors’s advocate!
Problem is he claims to be a better rapper than everybody and his bargame hasnt changed since his first album. He also said Drillmatic will be AOTY, which a lot of cats claim but from whats been put out it all sound very mediocre.
This guy thinks he can go bar for bar with Em…. Bro you just called yourself ‘Geezy’ wtf!!! Lol!!!
Song was dope why did he have to call himself Geezy he almost ruined it
Anyone care to count the number of Jame drops in this song lol? We got Dre, hov, young thug, future, ice cube, Westside connection, dub c, Nas, Rick Ross, John madden, Mayweather, 50, Beyonce, Kanye, hit boy (producer). I’m pretty sure I missed a few but holy damn lol…
This guy needs to stop. Seriously. It’s ALWAYS name dropping bullshit. Beat sucks, track sucks.
These lyrics gave me nothing. How Game gon do 3 verses and only 2-3 lines hot? All that tough talk and he’s at a standstill. Beat was excellent though!!!
I didn’t hear the entire song, just the 1 min clip. From what I heard it sounds extremely dope. It had the classic 90’s feel to it. I know a lot of people don’t like Game personally, I understand why. But if this song is a indication of the quality of this album. This is going to be a banger. Biggest issue for Game and recent years is his albums have too many features,
If I didn’t know who recorded this & I gave it an objective review, it would read:
Amateurish demo- change the hook (u can tell it’s punched in, PLUS it’s nonsensical- “so many gunshots, sound like violins”- wtf)… also, change the verses- too many name drops (an apparent crutch of his)… Do not listen more than once- I’m sad I gave it even 1 click… smh
Kevin Gates line about drinking Beyoncé’s piss is better than this snippet of a song.
But Kevin Gates is truly TRASH
If game had no social media, or no outlet to hear him just speak. He would be 80 % more successful then he is now. No one wants to hear him be human. Just rap and shut up
definitely gonna be AFAY (album from a year)
I’ve never watched one reaction channel that listened to a game song and had to replay it because of its complexity, he can rap sure, he’s loud and aggressive, but sorry bud that doesn’t make you a great one, not top 5, not top 10 maybe top 20-50, the guy had one album that was dope and allegedly 50cemt wrote a few songs on it, the male stripper always saying bs.
You need to watch other people’s reactions on something to gain a reaction for yourself? Loser cant you come up and form your own opinion hahahaha
should have been branded as “mc name drops”
A lot of people are just hating on Game now. The man can be a jerk at times. and he’s not likeable sometimes. but when I listen to music I judge the music, not how I feel about the person that’s making it. From what I heard this is high quality music, flow wise and production wise.
Ppl hate on game because he’s always like “this my best shit ever! Trust me, I ain’t never rapped liked this!”…. proceeds to rap exactly the same as he has for the past 10 years. This song had no substance, story, etc. Like most of his music, it’s just saying “I’m the best, but thanks to Pac, NWA, and Cube, I grew up on the chronic”. Maybe if Game wasn’t such a cocky, full of himself douche, people would be less likely to talk shit.
He said the same thing about his last album and that album was ass
Heard it all before hot garbage radar on alert
Incredible beat. Just wish there was a couple more name drops
This is fire. He just cracked my Top 10000000 list
Looking forward to the album. Better than 90 percent of the rappers out these days. Everyone hates on The Game. Everyone should be hating Drake. His album was complete trash!!!!
Beat is nice as fuck, needs more name drops…
