The Game

Jayceon Terrell Taylor (born: ), better known professionally as The Game or just Game, is an American rapper known for his music.
==Life==
Taylor was born on November 29, 1979, in Compton, California, to parents who were members of the Crips street gang. In a 2006 interview with MTV News correspondent Sway Calloway, Taylor described his family as "dysfunctional". Taylor and his sibling spent six years in foster care. By the early 2000s, Taylor had become heavily involved in selling drugs and participating in gang activities.
==Career==
In 2001, Taylor told his brother to go out and buy all of the classic hip-hop albums. Over the course of five months, he studied all of the various influential rap albums and developed a strategy to turn himself into a rapper. With the help of his older brother, Big Fase, they founded a label. His stage name was coined by his grandmother, who was a huge fan of the 1997 film, The Game. Taylor first gained prominence when he attended a hip-hop summit hosted by Russell Simmons and Louis Farrakhan. Taylor and Fase made a mixtape together. He released his first mixtape You Know What It Is Vol. 1 in 2002, and landed a record deal with the independent label Get Low Recordz owned by JT the Bigga Figga.
In 2005, Taylor released his first studio album, The Documentary. The album spawned a few sequels, The Documentary 2 and The Documentary 2.5, both of which were released in 2015.
Taylor had a feud with many prominent rappers, notably 50 Cent. After Taylor joined G-Unit, a group owned by 50 Cent, he and him had a few recurring issues, such as the shooting of the "Hate It Or Love It" music video. Later in 2005, 50 Cent dismissed Taylor from the group. In March, 50 Cent and Taylor announced they were resting their feud. Immediately after the announcement, G-Unit officially kicked out Taylor, causing him to boycott "G-Unot", making diss tracks towards 50 Cent and his group. After Taylor apologized in 2009, the crew dismissed the apology.
In 2022, he reignited the feud with 50 Cent after it was announced that Dr. Dre, Taylor's former mentor, was bringing 50 Cent with him to the Super Bowl LVI halftime show. He was also feuding with Eminem, with Taylor claiming on Drink Champs to be "the best and a better rapper" than him.
