LET THE GAME BEGIN: Rapper prepares for Nov. 7 release of next album; whets appetite with twist on Reid’s ‘One Blood.’
*The Game is already claiming his birthright to Dr. Dre’s Aftermath dynasty via his new single, “It’s Okay (One Blood),” which appears on his upcoming album, “The Doctor’s Advocate,” due Nov. 7.
According to MTV, the track samples Junior Reid’s anthem “One Blood.” But in Game’s case, the title refers to his gang affiliation, not the substance running through his veins.
"The 'Math gonna drop him, if 50 ain't rockin' with him no more," Game raps, referencing the rumors that he had been dropped from Dr. Dre's Aftermath label in the wake of his beef with 50 Cent. "Everybody knows I'm the heir to the Aftermath dynasty," he continues, reaffirming his allegiance to the Dr. Dre.
Ironically, Game has yet to collaborate with Dr. Dre for the new album, but he’s working with another Dre – from the production duo Cool & Dre.
"We gave him some really hot records," Dre of Cool and Dre told MTV recently in L.A. "We gave him this record with Mary J. Blige. [It's] another soulful record. Mary flipped it. We was in the studio — it was Mary, me and Cool, Game. The record is so beautiful. I believe the Mary song is called 'People.' Then we did a record with him that's so phenomenal that's up for first single status. This record is called 'Stop.’”
