A red book titled "All About Me" sits on a coffee table in The Game's suburban home, next to a collection of Tupac's poetry and the Taschen book "Black Ladies."

It's the kind of text meant for "self-discovery," with personal questions about beliefs, hopes and life experiences alongside space for readers to write their answers. A friendly inscription from a woman named Elizabeth asks Game to use the book as a tool to find out what's important to him.

Game hasn't written a single word inside.

Perhaps fittingly. For nearly two years, the constantly feuding rapper has been forced to define himself by what he is NOT.

After a clash of egos with 50 Cent, he's not part of the G-Unit clique any more
