Game: “[The R.E.D. Album] is Gonna be Better Than The Documentary

Game boasts to XXLMag.com what fans can expect from his new album…

Despite numerous set backs, and no set release date, Game is quite confident about the work he put into his new LP, The R.E.D. Album. XXLMag.com recently chopped it up with Mr. Chuck Taylor to find out what fans can expect.

“This [R.E.D.] Album is fuckin’ incredible,” Game told XXL. “Everything I do now in the studio is mind-blowing. I don’t want anybody to hear Purp & Patron and think they album is gonna sound like that, I’m on a different level with The R.E.D. Album. My bars is gonna be on point, my beat selection is gonna be on point. I got everybody from Dr. Dre to DJ Premier to Pharrell and Kanye West involved. They just don’t jump on anybody’s projects, so that has to tell you something.”

Earlier this week the Compton rep dropped the double disc mixtape, Purp & Patron, with DJ Drama and DJ Skee. But, as he explained to XXL, the tape holds no comparison to his official album. “Purp & Patron is like if me and you got a chance to see Kobe shoot around at the Lakers practice with Lamar Odom and Matt Barnes,” he said. “We’re gonna be amazed because that’s Kobe, but Kobe is gonna be like, ‘You think that was great, wait until game time.’”

Purp & Patron is just me shooting jumpers in the gym for practice,” he continued “When The R.E.D. Album comes out there are going to referees there and that’s when I’m gonna pack the stadium. This is gonna be my best work. I feel like this album is gonna be better than The Documentary.”

In the meantime, Game is prepping the release of his follow up to Purp & Patron, The Hangover. No details yet on the drop date. —Elan Mancini with reporting by Rob Markman

    Is 50 cent going to give him songs like he did for The Documentary? Because his music sucks now.

      WOW, thats pretty strong rhetoric for the dude after 3 platinum albums, with the internet and downloading these days its rather difficult to go platinum anymore. Apparently someone loves his music, but I respect your opinion though.

        2 platinum albums…LAX maxed out at 630K

        • Pse  | January 29, 2011 10:28 am

    as far as im concerned…this cat has nothing to prove anymore..more than made his mark…definatly underated…RED album will be GREAT

  3. Galaxy  | January 28, 2011 2:01 pm

    “RED album will be better than Documentary” You say that with every album.And if your songs are “on another level” as you say,then why the fuck wont Interscope release the album? Its just pushbacks all the time nigga cause your shit is garbage straight up

  4. Mike  | January 28, 2011 3:29 pm

    If im mistaken XXL um ” Funkmaster Flex” was on PURP AND PATRON MIXTAPE NOT DJ DRAMA.

  5. dynamicwayne  | January 28, 2011 3:52 pm

    • n1ggz1lla  | April 26, 2011 7:09 am

      Yeh man.. it up to us to decide if its better or not..

    The Game a musician and a Geek with Tatoos.

  7. pap3rchazer  | January 28, 2011 4:37 pm

    I think Jimmy Iovine put the battery in Game’s back to shoot for a G-Unit reunion, why else havent we got a release date for RED. I also think the only folks buyin Game’s shit are people on the west coast

    • Pse  | January 29, 2011 10:36 am

      We don’t give a fuck about what you think…….Jimmy Iovine gave game red light to release RED… I’m gonna buy it and I’m not from west coast and i know a lot of people that gonna do the same. I bet he gonna sell more than your favourite rapper’s last album……

      • jburg  | January 29, 2011 2:49 pm

        Get off that nigga’s ball sack! He is wack, get over it.

  8. pap3rchazer  | January 28, 2011 4:52 pm

    why does he keep saying he got 3 platinum albums, LAX went Gold. to be politically correct, what Game shouldve said was RED would be better than Doctors Advocate. besides, him sayin RED will be better than The Documentary is just the same as when fif said BISD was better than GRDT. fif couldnt match HIS MUSICAL PEAK with GRDT with BISD….what makes Game think he could match RED with fif’s peak when he WROTE/CRAFT The Documentary

    • Pablo  | September 27, 2011 4:39 pm

      well first off pap3rchaser…. 50 didnt craft the documentary, he only said that when the 2 of them were feuding, he claimed he wrote “westside story,Dreams, Hate it or Love it, how we do, and higher” and Game repeatedly said he only wrote his verses in how we do – and you can tell cuz GAME sucks on that song, and 50 cent isnt half the lyricist that the game was on “the documentary” or the doctors advocte” LAX and RED album are only ok though

  9. airforceones  | January 28, 2011 5:23 pm

    Are you dumb @$$z kidding me…. Why do you think hes back with Aftermath…. Because he the best spitter in the game right now. You guys need to pull those dicks out of your ears and start listening to what he is saying before you start judging shit you have no idea about. I am white boi from Canada and i kno my muzik. I can relate to what hes saying and can smoke a blunt of pk and drive my fly ass white. Rich boiz on the rise step up hood rats.
