The Game Shows Keyshia Cole His “Pain”
The Game has problems. Dealing with fame, family drama and fueds with G-Unit have only accentuated Game’s unabashedly emotional (and probably bi-polar) personality. But with his new LP LAX on the way, it seems like Jaceyon might have a new lease on life. The first single, “Game’s Pain,” is an optimistic, feel good Cali anthem in the vein of ’Pac’s “To Live & Die In L.A.” For the video, Game rides around with Cali’s baddest chick Keyshia Cole, and shows some cameo love to West Coast O.G. Ice Cube, Three 6 Mafia, and even Raekwon. Watch the video after the jump.

After a series of family comedies and half-baked action flicks, the original Ice Cube finally seems to be coming back. If you love the militant, political-minded shit-talking Dough Boy from the AmeriKKKa’s Most Wanted era, you’ll probably like “It Takes A Nation,” the official new single from his forthcoming album Raw Footage. This joint, produced by NY beatmaker Emile, sounds a bit similar to Jay’s “Takeover,” and Cube’s verses are filled with just as much venom. He takes aim at Clear Channel’s radio programmers, touts the virtues of staying independent and proclaims himself “the only rapper wanna fist-fight the President.” That’s gangsta! Listen closely after the jump.
