The Game has offered up his reasoning for taking a shot at Rick Ross in the midst of the Drake–Kendrick Lamar beef.
The Compton rapper called into The Joe Budden Podcast on Thursday (May 16) to offer some insight into his thinking regarding his diss track, “Freeway’s Revenge.”
“A n-gga sitting around just trolling, n-gga, keep that same energy, n-gga,” The Game began. “Bump heads with a n-gga that really do this shit.”
Budden asked the rapper if he expected Ross to respond, to which he replied: “Bro, he did respond with a fucking cereal bowl, n-gga…We know you fucking eat. We see you. I don’t think it’s wise… and if he does, it’s done. The rap n-ggas ain’t saying what the people in the comments are saying. The rap n-ggas know what I do.”
Budden then asked what would happen if Ross smoked him, and Game said: “A rare iguana in a motherfucking coy pond not gonna do it here. You gotta rap. All that luxury shit not gonna do it here.”
Check out the full clip below.
The Game initially took shots at Rick Ross for continually slandering Drake in his feud with Kendrick Lamar and co.
The Compton rapper took to his Instagram Stories earlier in May to offer some pointed commentary that many interpreted to be aimed at Rozay.
“It’s quiet today Wingstop must be closed on Monday’s [sic],” he wrote, referencing the restaurant chain that has several locations owned by the MMG mogul.
In a follow-up Story, The Game appeared to taunt Ross over his weight, writing: “It be the fat n-ggas with the skinny legs always running they mouth.”
The “My Life” continued his barrage of the Florida rapper with the fiery aforementioned diss track “Freeway’s Revenge.”
Though the two worked together in the past, most notably on “Ali Bomaye” from The Game’s Jesus Piece album, they are currently not on good terms. “Freeway’s Revenge” found The Game throwing some flagrant shots at the MMG mogul regarding his alleged sexual kinks, weight and health issues, and past stint as a correctional officer.
“You 12 lemon pepper wings from a heart attack/ Akademiks, give this n-gga an Ozempic starter pack,” he raps, before referencing the aforementioned Drizzy-K. Dot beef: “This ain’t the Kendrick beef, my Drac’ [Drake] sings songs/ Shots rings out, the neighbor better have his Ring on.”
Who tf keeps interviewing Game?!?!
Joe budden apparently
Everyone knows why he did it… For attention.
U r right, he wanted some attention, if he did not diss Rick Ross nobody would be talking about him right now. Game over
By the logic Game stated, he should have plenty to say to Wack 100 for all the stupid comments he’s made about Nipsey and 2Pac alone. But we know the truth is that he was looking for any opportunity to insert himself into a hip-hop moment that didn’t concern him, all for attention.
Because he needs money…
And…. still nobody cares about The Lame except Priscilla Rainey who wants her 💰
This video is from last week, not May 16.
Hey Lame, have you paid off Priscilla yet? Just curious homie.
Game has had beef with everyone. Including Budden, I’m surprised to see them on good terms.
I assure you. If no one cares that you dissed Eminem…no one gives a shit more if u dissed Rick Ross.
