Joe Budden 50 Cent criticized Budden's album for "lacking street credibility." Joe Budden took offense and released various insults directed at G-Unit. On a mixtape in early 2004, Budden attacked a G-Unit track that featured The Game. During 2004, The Game made several records dissing Joe Budden, notoriously the track "Buddens." The Game threatened Joe Budden and supposedly flew to New York to confront him. Joe Budden mocked The Game's appearance on the dating game show "Change of Heart" in which he sported a tongue ring. On his web site, The Game defended his embarrassing appearance on the show, saying that he was young and needed the money. Later, at a party in New York, the rappers mutually announced their intention to stop making hostile records about each other, but The Game has subsequently suggested in songs and videos that he won the feud.

Yukmouth At a party for the release of Jadakiss's new album, The Game was confronted by Yukmouth who told him that he had a feud with 50 cent, The Game said he wanted no part of the ordeal. After the party Yukkmouth had heard rumors of the game making disrespectful comments, he came out with a song aimed at yukkmouth. A video surfaced on the Internet in which Yukmouth appeared in a studio with rapper Domination, who was making a disrespectful song aimed at G-Unit. At the end of the clip, Yukmouth claims that The Game has a tongue ring. The Game fired back with a record dissing the rap veteran. Yukmouth responded with two tracks and a music video featuring an impersonator of The Game. Both songs referred to the Change of Heart and tongue ring incidents. Yukmouth released a mixtape called "All Out War," attacking The Game on several tracks. The two tried to bury the hatchet and even recorded a song together.

Death Row Dr. Dre's old nemesis Suge Knight has an ongoing feud with The Game. Yukmouth claimed that The Game had been slapped by Suge Knight. The Game responded on his website, saying that if Suge Knight had ever touched him, he would put him "6 feet under." After the 2005 BET Awards, associates of Death Row had their invitations to a party hosted by Ciara rescinded. Supposedly, a member of Death Row had tried to steal The Game's chain. The Game stated on his Black Wall Street web site that he dislikes Suge Knight because of "the lives he has endangered." In Miami for the 2005 MTV Video Music Awards, Suge Knight was shot and wounded at Kanye West's party by an unknown gunman; The Game vigorously denied involvement in the shooting, but the incident renewed efforts to pacify hip hop feuds and The Game has consequently been discouraged from attending certain events in hopes of averting retaliation.

Roc-A-Fella and Jay-Z This feud grew out of an earlier rivalry with Memphis Bleek over the name of his label. The label was similar to the one to which The Game had been previously signed. On the single "Westside Story," The Game raps that he "don't do button-up shirts or drive Maybachs," many believed this diss was aimed at Jay-Z. On the radio, Jay-Z retaliated by referring "game" while rapping. The Game apparently felt that Jay-Z was attacking him and made several remarks directed at Roc-A-Fella Records. In an interview with Ed Lover and Moni Love, The Game said the Maybach line on "Westside Story" was actually a diss at Ja Rule, he also said he has a lot of respect for Jay-Z and would never diss legends. Jay-Z later insisted that "game" references were just about the rap game itself, not the rapper. The Game still addresses Memphis Bleek and the Young Gunz on songs but avoids dissing Kanye West and Jay-Z. There were rumors that Jay-Z was planning on "declaring war" on The Game and others at a concert in October 2005, but Jay-Z instead used the opportunity to bury the hatchet with Nas.

50 Cent and G-Unit
 The Game and 50 Cent at a time trying to end the feud. The Game currently has an escalating feud with 50 Cent. Fans mostly believed that the rapper was bonding with 50 Cent at the time of The Documentary's release. The Game's major debut album was surrounded by controversy.

50 Cent also claimed that he was not getting his proper credit for the debut of the album. During that dispute, a member of The Game's entourage was shot and wounded after confrontation at Hot 97. After the situation between them escalated, 50 Cent and The Game decided to hold a press conference to announce their reconciliation. Many fans felt that the supposed feud, and particularly the incident at the radio station was a publicity stunt designed to boost the sales of the two albums the pair had just released. Nevertheless, even after the situation had apparently deflated, 50 Cent and G-Unit continued to feud with The Game, denouncing his street credibilty in the media and claiming that without their support, he will not score a hit from his second album. 50 Cent also sued The Game's manager Jimmy Henchmen over unauthorized filming for a documentary about Kelvin Martin.

Nevertheless responded through his "Piggybank" video, which features The Game dressed as a Mr. Potato Head and parodies many other nemeses. This was the first of many feuds where two rappers from the same label were involved against each other. It's not too clear if the feud is dissolved, but on BET 106 & Park, The Game confirmed that he was done beefing with 50 Cent. 50 Cent has not commented on resolving the feud.

The Radio One incident While promoting his debut album, The Game was in Washington, D.C., with his manager, Jimmy Henchmen. They were being interviewed on WKYS-FM by DJ Zxulu and by the Hip Hop Zone's Kwasi Jones. A comment made by Zxulu about the earpiece Henchmen was wearing started a confrontation with 20 members of The Game's entourage. Zxulu and Jones were injured and hospitalized. The incident at the radio station caused Radio One to ban The Game's music from its stations in major markets. The ban was lifted after The Game and his Black Wall Street group issued an apology to the radio station. The remix of the single "Hate It or Love It" featured The Game rapping, "I'm rap's MVP/Don't make me remind ya'll what happened in D.C." Jones apparently sued The Game (also naming Dr. Dre, 50 Cent, and Eminem in the suit) for $280 million over the song and the incident itself, but the suit was thrown out and never came to trial.

While on tour The Game and Snoop Dogg joined the promoted tour "How The West Was One." They made a stop in Seattle and performed at the Auburn White River Amphitheatre. A supposed fan named Richard Monroe came onstage and approached Snoop Dogg, setting off a brawl between 12 members of Snoop Dogg and The Game's bodyguards. The incident was captured on a home video that appears to show Monroe leaning his arm on Snoop Dogg's shoulder during a performance of the song "Gin and Juice." The bodyguards respond by wrestling Monroe to the floor and repeatedly punching and kicking the fan. Some members of the audience claim that Snoop Dogg invited fans onstage to perform with him, and there are other reports that The Game punched or kicked Monroe during the incident. Representatives of the venue have defended the performers' bodyguards, stating that the safety of the performers is always a high priority and that fans are not permitted on stage.

When police arrived, the Game continued to act up and was arrested, a police statement said. The Game said officers overreacted.

The Origin of 300 Bars and Runnin' Within the rap community, many of The Game's fans felt that the diss song entitled "300 Bars and Runnin'" was the diss that destroyed the credibility of 50 Cent and G-Unit. While it addressing his labelmates, The Game made clear that his attacks are also meant for Memphis Bleek, Benzino, and the Young Gunz. The Game chose to distance himself from addressing Jay-Z, Dr. Dre as well as others on this single. Although it's unclear whether or not the feud is squashed, but as of today The Game still feuds with various G-Unit and Roc-A-Fella artists. The song is considered a first for it being the only song by far to last almost 15 minutes through various instrumentals from many of hip-hop's elite. The Game's fans consider it to be the best diss record since "Hit 'em up". Image File history File links YKWIIV3. ...
