The Game is using his platform to shine a light on the next generation of talent.
The Grammy-nominated rapper took to Instagram this week to announce that he’s offering a major discount on guest verses.
“Doing 50 percent off features now,” he wrote alongside a clip of himself in the studio, inviting unsigned artists from all corners of the world to reach out. “I don’t care where you from,” he said with conviction in the video. “DM the GOAT and get you a verse. I’m not playing.”
The 44-year-old Compton native made it clear that this isn’t just a publicity move. “I was there,” he shared, recalling his early grind. “I sold my mixtape, I sold my demo, I slept in my car. I did everything I had to do to get one.”
He continued, “People don’t wanna see y’all come up,” he said. “They don’t reach down and help up-and-coming artists. They’d rather watch you struggle.”
Known for hits like “Hate It or Love It” and “How We Do,” The Game has built a reputation for both lyrical precision and authenticity.
“I’m looking out for independent artists,” he said. “I’m never gonna stop that. Hit me.”
In the comments section, one fan claimed they sent the rapper $4000 three years ago for a verse that he never received.
