Under Pressure – The Game / Busta Rhymes

Footage of Busta Rhymes interviewing The Game on BET’s Rap City last week.

In today’s rap world of non-stop beefs, egos and hype, it’s refreshing to hear an artist talk honestly about both their career and life outside of the music industry. I’ve always felt that The Game was an artist who had the potential to go beyond the usual gangsta nonsense on his records, but who got caught up in the whole 50 Cent / G-Unit drama and wasted a lot of time and energy on a pointless feud. Hopefully, if he can channel some of that same honesty seen in the above clip into his new album, then “L.A.X.” could well be his greatest moment.
