The Game celebrated his 44th birthday earlier this week, but got emotional while toasting to his daughter, Cali Dream Taylor.

The Compton rap veteran nearly shed a thug tear while giving a speech at his intimate birthday party on Wednesday night (November 29).

The Game also marked his 44th birthday with a few Instagram posts, including a photo of him sat next to a red cake adorned with the phrase “Happy Worst Day,” a reference to Biggie‘s “Juicy” lyric.

He also received some love in the comments section from some of his Hip Hop peers like Ludacris, E-40, DJ Premier and more.

Back in August, The Game penned a heartfelt message to Cali, who is his only daughter, on her 13th birthday.

“I’m late on posting this am because every time I’ve thought of you this morning my eyes swelled up with tears,” he began. “If I could have one wish… it would be to go back in the past & relive all of the moments we’ve shared together just to hold the little you a lot tighter.

“How’d we get here so fast ?? How does a little baby who needed me to do every single thing for her grow to be such a beautiful young woman who can do almost everything for herself ??”

He continued: “How’d we go from ‘Daddy can we go get ice cream’ to ‘Daddy can we go to Van Cleef & get a anklet or necklace??’ Lol. Where is my 3 year old word for word Beyoncé song singing daughter who would get mad when anyone would interrupt her ??
