The DUB Magazine Project › Cast › Host: Game

Raised in Compton, Game has always had an affinity for cars.  


As his rap career began to take off -- Game started filling the covers and pages of the premiere celebrity automotive magazine, DUB; making the west coast emcee the perfect host for MTV2's "The Dub Magazine Project."

Game's official foray into Hip Hop, "The Documentary," was a #1 Billboard 200 debut in 2005, selling an impressive 586,000 units in the first week continuing to 5 million plus units worldwide.

No urban music artist arrived with as much promotional fanfare as Jayceon "Chuck" Taylor. Game (formerly The Game) was handpicked by legendary star-maker Dr. Dre to headline his Aftermath Entertainment brand, officially declaring it "Game Time."

By 2005, Game's own Black Wall Street label, was dominating the street scene with a series of "Murda Chronicle" mixtapes, indie-videos, party appearances and rap beef settlements.

"Doctor's Advocate" was Game's second album and follow up to "The Documentary." Released in November of 2006, the album debuted at number one on the U.S. Billboard 200, selling over 358,000 copies in its first week, making it The Game's second number one album in a row. "Doctor's Advocate" sold upwards of 4 million records. Boasting production from many of the same producers who helped make his debut a classic, a list including Kanye West, Just Blaze, Scott Storch and Hi-Tek.

Never satisfied with just music success, Game accepted a co-starring role opposite Meagan Good and Tyrese in "Waist Deep," directed by Vondie Curtis-Hall.

In 2008 Game continued his west coast resurrection efforts with "LAX," which came within a hair of being the artist's third number one album. "LAX" debuted at #2 on the Billboard 200 chart, selling 238,382 copies in its first week.

By December of 2010, Game began working on his 4th album. Mega producers J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League and Scott Storch had joined B.o.B., Busta Rhymes and Wiz Khalifa in the project's mix of high profile features. "The R.E.D. Album" is scheduled for an August, 23rd release.

Game has earned his place amongst rap's elite. Nothing was given. He never asked anyway -- and wouldn't have accepted any Hip Hop handouts even if the industry offered.
