The Game's new LP, The R.E.D. Album, was not inspired by him being a Blood. It's not a clever play on words or some type of tip of the fitted cap to Jay-Z's Black Album. Nah, the Compton native's CD is all about him restarting his engine.
"The R.E.D. Album, people think the R.E.D. stands for gangbanging. I am what I am. ... R.E.D. — that's rededicated. Rededicated to hip-hop ... to my 'hood, Compton. Rededicated to my family, rededicated to everything."
And yes, that rededication means the end of Game's retirement talk. He says the album will be out in '09, and he's already been in the studio with Timbaland, J.R. Rotem, Drumma Boy and former Aftermath producer Mike Lynn. Cool and Dre are scheduled to come in on the album, and Game also hopes to track Kanye West down for beats.
"The R.E.D. Album is about to be serious, man," he promised. "It's a step up. The R.E.D. Album, it's a little soulful, I gotta say. Still gangsta — we getting it in. I'm keeping everything on wraps right now.
"This album ... it's gonna be different," he added. "I was wondering to myself how I'm gonna elevate myself and even change the field. Three albums ... what do you talk about after three albums? I ain't selling crack and gangbanging and shooting sh-- up. My beefs have been down-low. So what do you really talk about? I just wanna rap, man. I just wanna do music. Whatever it turns out to be, it turns out to be. Long as every song has that collective feel — they gel — then we good. I'm just gonna rap this time."

i jus hope he hollas at the westcoast for most of the album
-
Thatz whatz up....2009 3rd and 4th quarter should get real ugly
-
YEEEEEAAAAAAAH :D Thanks for the info..
Gonna be his 4th classic :D
-
The Game has 1 classic (Doctor's Advocate), one very good album (The Documentary) and one letdown (L.A.X.) in my opinion. On the R.E.D. Album he should reallly keep it Westcoast. I wasn't feeling tracks like "Angel" and the eastcoast vibe he kinda had on the last joint.

LAX was dope as fuck to me... every game album has been

cant wait

Indeed. Khalil, Quik, Jelly Roll...
-
Sounds like it could be really dope but he was saying similar comments before LAX dropped and I was disappointed with that release.
Is it called R.E.D or Red. ?
I'm not sure where he gets R.E.D from Rededicate. I'm thinking he should rededicate himself to some education, a psychologist, and a new press/image consultant.
Am I hating?
Hell yeah.
Hope it's dope though. Be on par with Bang Along.
-
we def gotta hear game/khalil on here and i wouldn't be surprised if we did
-
He was saying the same sorta shit about LAX so this could turn out to be same sort of dissapointment. He needs to get blaze, jr and khalil on board. Timbo would be a bonus but them three niggaz should be signed up asap.
-
ya we def need Khalil and Just Blaze, Kanye West 2...will see on Timbaland
Cool & Dre & Drumma Boy are cool 2.
-

Real Spit....LAX was Bangin to me....Game never dissapoints....I'm sure the Red album will be just as dope....He shoulda dropped Bang Along as a street single tho....IMO.
-
Oh yeah, Khalil, Quik, JR, definitely a timbo banger ...
and why not, a Dr. Dre beat ? hahhaa.
