- On this episode of People's Party, Talib Kweli and Jasmin Leigh sit down with rapper, entrepreneur, and very-honest-motherf*cker, The Game. Right away the trio dives into the deep end, with a wide-ranging conversation on gang culture, rap beefs, Nipsey Hussle's legacy, and a possible G-Unit reunion.
Later in the episode, Kweli and The Game talk about their mixtape collaborations, rap reality vs. street life reality, and BlackLivesMatter. Throughout the interview, The Game is the same man you hear on the track: unflinchingly honest and fearlessly raw. No topic is off-limits and stories are told in vivid detail. As one observer at the live taping said, "Damn, listening to him is like a John Woo movie!"

I like Talib interviewing he takes time to listen to the guest never cuts in.
hell yeah, at one point I forgot it was Talib and just started see a great interviewer.🔥
unlike Jasmine hkhihikik
Unlike T.I

Robin Clay lmao 😂 facts!
Game acts exactly how you would imagine after listening to his music for years, best interview for the homie.
He was awesome -- also very kind and immensely gracious.
Real humble I've been listening for a long time and watch alot of interviews and podcast but talib is one of the best to do it at tbis and rapping.
Facts
Easily games best interview..:Talib is my favorite hip hop podcaster now
huge gratitude for this!
He took the torch from Combat Jack (RIP) and he is running with it.
Reality Check I think he has a lot of respect for Talib.
He actually listen unlike other podcast hosts
Facts
The Games 1st LP is still a certified classic 15+ years later. Hip Hop Legend.
Of course!!!!
300 bars and running still best diss record of all time for me personally, old school game fans know
Kwm 1989 and Real Muthaphukkin G’z
Facts b!
That shit was nuts
20 mins of disrespect fucking loved it
We getting tired of you talkin about who you shot
, I'll use another six bars to tell you who you not. You ain't 50 Cent, he went out like a gangsta. You went out with Vivica, three months after Wanksta. Fucking classic
Doctor's Advocate had a pure West Coast feel to it...
Game is mad underrated.
He’s top 10 all time. Period.
He a clown dats y
@@Jacob-cu4uj he's in my top 10 🤷🏿♂️
@@muhfkajones ya list is ass cheeks then
Def could be in a top 5 argument
Damn I'm a 51 year OG from Newark NJ, raised on all the Boroughs of New York at some time in my life , I hustled everything in the streets, and grew up hard, but when Game a spoke of feeling empathy for Meek Mill, I started to cry. It amazes me I never excepted crying growing up, but the older I get, the more life touches me. Thank you Game for being the type of man that is able to show feelings of empathy, I knew from the very beginning that you were gonna be considered as you of the best. You are honest, right or wrong, and that's character, and something the people want to see, so maybe we can someday imitated it.
Shout out to Talib Kweli, extensive research done before this interview. Mutual respect is felt, two great rappers.
SA L U T E !!
Loved the mutual respect.
Talib you the 🐐 man. You never interrupted never over spoke. Never had him switch subject in the middle of a good story. Great rapper and a great podcast host
THANKS!
This is a great interview Game gave a lot unknown gems

Nobody has interviewed Game better than Talib🙏 Thank you for dropping this gem upon us !
thanks so so much!
We need Game on Kxng Crooked Crooks Corner. That would be a dope interview
Breakfast Club did... lol. Jk.... both very good regardless 👌
He is a great interviewer
The Games Documentary got me through my 1st bid. The track dreams kept me motivated
Akim Collier my favorite song from him 🔥🔥
Same bro
👍🏽
Glad I’m not the only one
dreams is one of my favorite songs of all time..
This podcast is easily becoming my favorite, Talib Kweli is doing a good ass job
We appreciate that ⚡️⚡️⚡️
I loved seeing "grown man Game" speak on "young man Game." I couldn't help but think what grown men Biggie and Pac would've been about. I also appreciate how he was able to articulate just how ahead of his time Nip was. Talib, please keep it coming. If you haven't already, I'd love to see you get Black Thought, Andre 3000 or Jay Electronica on here. They, like you, are well read and about spreading positive views on my fellow black men. Peace
The music off Born 2 Rap...
Amazing.
Intelligent Hip Hop interview. The way interviews should be done.
g r a t i t u d e !!!
I'd like to see Lupe Fiasco on your podcast 🔥👍🤘
Best Game interview I’ve ever heard Game do
thats because talib is a great interviewer , he has alot of rap history knowledge, knows how to segway his guest into interesting stories, and gives his guest time to tell the story.
This is Talib’s calling. I can’t believe he didn’t start this a while back.
REAL Talk agreed
I dont know about "Calling" lol, being a top tier emcee has definitely been his calling, but he's a great orator and interviewer also. He's always given speeches at Colleges so it makes sense he's such a great communicator.
PrimeraEspadaStark ☺
@@PrimeraEspadaStark you can have more than one calling in life.
@@4thdisciple514 true..
Talib knows exactly what to ask and every question was spot on and he knows when to listen no interruptions like you see in other interviews I used to be a big fan of game from documentary to LAX I feel like bumping his shit again one love
Another great interview. Game seems like a real dude that has just matured through life
Such an honest true and transparent interview i now finally understand why and how important this platform is to the culture thank you Talib
We really appreciate that ⚡️⚡️⚡️
Talib is a SUPER UNDERRATED EMCEE and INTERVIEWER. He knows when to ask questions, how to ask them, and allows his guest the space needed to provide answers.
Game was as candid as I expected him to be. GREAT SHIT.
We appreciate it fam. Glad u found the show
@@UPROXXVideo Love the show. Been binge watching a bunch of Talib's interviews for a week straight. I hope he gets Joe Budden on there. Nas. And although he seldom does interviews, Cole too.
Lloyd banks called 50 to help with one of his lines
All he going to tell you is say G G G G-Unit one more time! -The Game
The G Unot mixtapes were hard af
Got mad because I didn’t to make yo beef mine got lucky with Ja why you ain’t go at Shyne he freestyle from the pen that’s just a fact said he’ll put you with ya mama you ain’t fuckin wit dat💯
Been a fan of The Game since 2004. A hugely under rated MC. As an artist/rapper myself he's inspired my own music for years. The man single handedly destroyed G-Unit and held it down for the westcoast all by himself
Cut the crap he could done nothing to 50 and G unit all he had done is wear a hat g unot fck that G unit still exists 50 yayo banks fck disloyalty general l salute u!
Facts he took on the whole gang of g unit
I’ve been a Game fan since day one. This was a good interview. Respect to the legendary Talib Kweli too.
Appreciate that ⚡️⚡️⚡️
This was fantastic. I've been a Game fan for nearly 16 years and this was one of his best interviews. I've always enjoyed how genuine Game has been in the way he speaks and moves. Thank Talib Kweli for having him on and letting him speak, something that's rare for an interviewers to see these days. The way he speaks about Kendrick Lamar shows how much of a impact Kendrick has made in hip hop. Strangely Kendrick Lamar's story and skill parallels Lupe Fiasco and a LOT of ways and Lupe doesn't get anywhere remotely close to the same adoration and shine. Either way thanks again Talib. I hope to see Lupe Fiasco on here one day.
I've been fan of TK for years, and the only one who can makes me shivers more is mos def,i remeber albums, live performance of those two boys who since grews.
but from my far away country itwing The game is just îece of fun for aqn old guy like TK..
For god sake i really want an itw with rawkus from Talib :)
(sorry for my english, i came from far ,) )
Dom Kennedy was a necessary act in the album... D Smoke killed it... I listen to Born to Rap everyday, Game created a masterpiece I’ll listen to for a very long time
I'm 35 and I'll still picking Boys N the Hood over Titanic lol
Tatanic boring
Tatanic boring
Facts LOL
Fuck Titanic, it's a racist movie
What kinda comparison is that lol
I love me some Game and this interview has sealed the deal. Much to Talib and to Game from a 68 year old lady and one of my favorite Game sons is with Da Baby, "Baby it's You."
This is one of the realest interviews ever. Shout out to Talib Kweli(Truth) and The Game.
One of games best interviews 🔥
This is a great interview thank you so much guys from a big Game fan since 2004 Westside story mixtape to a rapper I respect in Talib Kweli appreciate it
We appreciate that ⚡️
@@UPROXXVideo please keep these detailed in depth interviews up 🙏not talking about the BS gossip bedroom talk talking about their upbringing life records lyrics peers I love it.
His Name TALIB means seeker of WISDOM for a reason. Gr8 lesson
Taalib, Arabic word طالب. Means *student*
Game and 50 inspired me as a kid in the early 2000s 2 of my top 5 all time 💯🤴🏾🤴🏿
IamAski 👍🏽
Been bumpin Game since his early Aftermath buzz, with that JT/Get Low album. The G-Unot lil era was crazy too, those mixtapes were just piling up. We seen him perform at the How The West Was Won Concert in October, he puts on a good show. Great interview to see how much he has grown and kept it 100 with himself throughout the whole time. Epic interview, Kweli does it again.
What a great interview.
If Born 2 Rap really is his last album... : (
THANK YOU GAME ! Power & Respect from Melbourne Australia ✌
LilRask _ keep supporting thank you Aussie
Jasmin is amazing love her smile
Talib is very intelligent i love learning things especially political from this man
Thank God for Talib Kweli. I've been listening to Hip Hop for 40 years and the evolution from it inception to now blows my mind. Talibs skills as an interviewer and ability to articulate his position as one of the best MCs ever is unreal. In all of these interviews you can clearly see a natural flow of conversation and a supreme level of comfort.
Good interview. Wen doctors advocate drop I had that on my cd player on repeat. Thank for awalys showing love to us Mexicans 💯
Javier Lopez I’m liking that pic of you and those chicks
The Game definitely need to do a biopic ASAP!Just listening to his hood storiez.
"They haven't received a dime up to this point cause I'm broke and don't know if they ever will cause Imma stay broke" - well played Game
His album 1992 was classic love that album
Game whole catalog is crazy. From The Documentary - Born 2 Rap homie never dropped a wack album.. & Jesus Piece was very slept on
@@Malcolmweeks1 I grew up on Wu tang and the Soundtrack, 1992 5 mic album.
Doctors Advocate was a 5 mic album.
@@christiaanscott1329 word.
Doc 2.5 is his best album. Its the most complete
This is a really good interview for Game
Great Interview, Game answered any and every question, I like how he talks about how he has to top each album he puts out, that just shows he puts a good product and music out and respects Hip-Hop/Rap as a whole, people have to understand that Game has paid homage to the Rappers before, currently and after him, he has dedicated many songs too tons of friends, artists, actors, celebs, and spoke on many of the struggles of the world and his environment, he never gets his props, and is madly underrated and hated for the wrong reasons, keep the Westside heartbeat alive Jayceon!
Game is not underrated. How can you say that while dude is sitting next to Talib Kweli? (+)
Why you think people never leave Compton "FEAR" thats why alot of peoples dreams never manifest that honesty is why Game will always be one of the dopest why 9 albums topped Billboard and why he is a legend in hip hop
I like how Talib let the folks tell their story, and not interrupt them. Great interviewer.
Peace and blessings to Omarion for his composure💯
The game always been a conscious cat, this is why he's a goat status. Im glad Talib mention that
This was a great interview. Shouts to game & Talib. The girl is great and she is beautiful.
This series is easily one of the best podcasts out there
This was such a PERFECT interview and it was LONG! Basically 2 hours of information and dope conversation. Thank you for this interview Talib!
I've seen the Game twice live and I've seen 50 twice live. Hearing the Games stories about that whole situation and how he thinks they could've made billions if they didn't separate......... I just hope they can come together for an album. Hate it or love it and How we do. Talking about songs that are timeless that never got released, I 100% believe that!
Wrote this after listening to 53:22 of the podcast.
Greatest game interview, thank u Talib.
Straight Kwelity interviews.
We appreciate that ⚡️
This is the 4th interview of yours I’ve watched and I really appreciate the interview style. I’ve always enjoyed your music and perspective and it’s great to see a hip hop interview that isn’t exploiting the nonsense.
Gratitude -- we're def trying to go deeper than the average
UPROXX Video you can definitely tell.
Game a real one. Another interview i seen with him that he did the same day he did this interview (same outfit on both interviews) brought me here. I knew from the get go this interview was a CLASSIC. Respect 2 Game & Talib, etc.
This interview sent my head spinning motivated to get on with life
Either way love the podcast! This is my favorite podcast!

“Fans make an album classic, not the artist”
Thank y'all for the time stamps.Il say it again all podcasts should have it like a book has a chapter list or highlights.

One of Games best interviews! Very transparent, informative on the culture and process of The Game and Rap Music in general. Thanks Talib and Peoples Party for establishing this platform to interview talents.
It took me three hours to watch this two hour interview. I kept rewinding moments. I laughed, cried, and learned. All things a great interview should do. Well done 🙌🏾🙏🏾
34:15 Game jumped into the 50cent beef story
Amazing interview. I been listening to the Game from his first Album dropped. All the way from Ireland ❤🇮🇪
I’m low key proud of this dude. I grew up with him now that I think about it. And he has changed and grown a lot over the years. He seems more calm and wiser now. Respect

LOL. I wasn't that good then so it's all good.I miss the days when emcees were approachable.Kweli spelled my name wrong though. LOL
Great interview. Would be awesome and interesting to see Immortal Technique or Black Thought or a producer like Premo or The Alchemist, PLEASE :)
Incredible interview. Peace to the Young Queen, Talib, and Chucc
Great interview! Prob one of the dopest interviews I have ever seen this year and beyond

Great interview! Unlike T.I keeps interrupting the artist, and not letting them talk.
This is what you call an interview
