Game Instagram: Rapper Giving $25,000 to Fans Before New Album ‘Documentary 2’ Release?
The Game has pledged to give $25,000 to fans every day leading up to the release of his highly-anticipated album, The Documentary 2. The California rapper, whose original name is Jayceon Taylor, shared the opportunity for his biggest supporters on his Instagram, vowing to give a different fan $1,000 a day for 25 days in the month of September.
His highly-anticipated project, which is the sequel to his successful debut from 2005, is set to release to the public on September 25.
In order for fans to receive the money from the MC, he shared information on his Instagram on how he would be personally delivering it to them at their homes or places of work. He told fans to follow one of his team members, Avante Rose, use the hashtag #TheDocumentary2, as well as #KeepTheCityLit along with their address in his comments section for the next 25 days.
Game revealed that he would randomly be pulling up to fans’ locations without notice, revealing that he would spend money on a plane in order to get to fans that live in locations outside of his home city of Los Angeles. Taylor also joked that he hopes some of his fans have food ready for him if he does make it to their locations to give them the cold-hard cash, even if it’s a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
Game has been working vigorously on his Documentary 2 album for the last year, and has been building tons of anticipation on social media. He has gotten studio visits from the likes of Dr. Dre, Tyrese, and many more prominent names in music. The rapper has even commented that it will be able to go under the consideration of other top albums from the West Coast hip-hop scene this year, including Dre’s Compton and Kendrick Lamar’s To Pimp A Butterfly.
