The Game is quite busy lately. He's currently busy raising a child (Harlem) and preparing for another one, King Justice, who is scheduled for birth at the end of April. He also has the streets buzzing with a new mixtape and he recently spoke to MTV on many issues.
On his new nickname:
"I'm changing my street name: I'm killing Hurricane and I'm just gonna run with the Murda Game. Like I said, I talked to Nas at the "Hustlers" video shoot, and we was talking about his career and where he's been, talking about [Nas' aliases] Escobar and Nasty Nas. And I said, "I had heard some sh-- from back in the day when you was Nasty Nas. It was the so raw, uncut, so street." I was like, "I need one of them aliases." He was like, "Well, if I'm Nasty Nas, then you Murda Game because you murder n---as." That's what it is: Out with the Hurricane, in with Murda Game. I got that from a don, man. A king gave me that, so I had to run with it."
On his relationship with Nas:
"The "Hustlers" video shoot was dope. You gonna see it real soon. I ain't even got a lot to say about it except it's dope. To be in the same space, same area, even to be a part of the same song as today's hip-hop king, Nas, is real. That's Mr. Illmatic, everybody knows Illmatic
