All sorts of hippie-love action is taking place in the wake of Michael Jackson's death. Have you ever, in your wildest dreams, imagined that The Game would be giving video interview in which he apologizes not only to 50 Cent, but to Dr. Dre, Eminem and the entire G-Unit crew, as well as his fans?
The Game says that he should've put his ego in check back in the day, and listened to the head of Interscope Records, Jimmy Iovine. "Jimmy always says, ‘Man, I told you guys not to break up the Beatles,’” the rapper says. "He says he told John Lennon the same thing a long time ago. But I was young, man. I was dumb. I did a lot of dumb things. I felt me and 50 clashed. I’m not gonna dis 50. I’m not gonna go back on the plane. He had his side, I had my side. I did what I felt was necessary for me and my career to have longevity and survive in hip-hop and music to be around when I’m Quincy Jones’ age — not just be Quincy Jones’ age, but be a Quincy Jones."
Game believes that everybody missed out on a lot of money by not being able to stick together. "Now, four albums in, I can honestly say from Banks to Buck to Dre to Yayo to whoever, if it would have kept going, endless paper," he says. "Millions of albums sold — because we were great together. Me and 50’s chemistry was like how Method Man was to Redman when they get in. You know when Method Man gets with Redman, it’s going down."

What does this mean for everyone involved? Too early to tell, but The Game's got something on his mind, and it doesn't just sound like advance hype for his Red album. Guess we'll just have to wait and see...
