u might have heard game rapping about "air ones" or "air forces" in most of his songs, well i just heard on Q 104.7 in oxnard that nike paid Game to promote thier product and he supposelly got a good chunk of money from Nike. It just so happens that 1 week after Games album droped nike is re releasing air force ones to footlocker, footaction and other nike retailers across the country this weekend.
that would explain why he makes refrences about it in almost every song.
-
all his talkin about air force ones made me go out and buy a pair ::)
-
the funny part is - in the dvd he was like "we gangsta fa real out here, niggas think we traded in our chuck taylors for some air forces"
::)
-
Game better have got paid good too. He said it a million times.

any publiciity is..
-
good for him
-
damn if they actually did that would be crazy Run-DMC never got shyt from adidas, and reebok is the only shoe not urban to give rapper shoes
-
i personally rock air force 2s
-
Game is a whore
-
goddamn if this shits true thats the fakest shit i ever heard what a fuckin sell out he let nike fuck wit his lyrics for some cash fuck that he aint real
-
Is it odd that he mentions air forces at least once in every verse he spits on Documentary. This would make a lot of sense, although it's kinda sellin' out if ya ask me.
Just to clear it up: Just cause an entertainer signs a contract with a company, promotes them, does commercials, etc.....IMO, that DOES NOT make them a sell-out. It seems to make Game somewhat of a sell-out if it alters his lyrics and he HAS to mention the damn shoes all the time. If he likes the shoes and wants to talk about them, cool....but if he had a contract that said he HAD to mention them, then well....
-
There's a difference between sellin out and buyin in
-
disappointing- he's gonna be rich enough anyway- why do this?
-
OK NOW THE QUESTION IS...DID HE GET PAID TO NAME THE OTHER THOUSAND CELEBRITIES/RAPPERS IN HIS SONGS?
-

because hes getting good $$$. game is not a millionare right now so if nike comes to u with some cash and offers u a good amount of cash u wouldn't take it?? just think about it. they probably gave him around 500,000 more or less. with that money he could give it to his family to survive for the next 4 yrs.

Yeah, Benzino gave him $5000, plus one year The Source subscription and a guest spot on Benzinos next album if he mentioned Benzino twice.
-
i think the game should talk about those sneakers that light up wen u step, now them shits is gangsta
-
Benzino paid Eastwood to diss Dre, Em and 50

Thats fair, but I still think its a shame. Question for you: What if instead of Nike giving him 500K, McDonalds offered him $1 mill? Should he take the money?
-
and talk about both? hell yeah!..
i'd dedicate a whole song to the "Big Tasty" 8)
-
game is a slut, soon you'll see him doing AIR FORCE ONES PART 2 :( sad the nelly version was gay enough.
-
since dude admitted he made his up i'mma lock this.
