The Game (US) – LAX Tour
LA born rapper The Game single-handedly brought the West Coast back when he burst onto the scene with his album, The Documentary, which is considered one of the strongest debut albums in hip hop history. He is also the only West Coast solo artist to release a multi-platinum album since Dr Dre’s 1999 classic, 2001. With millions of albums sold worldwide, and a reputation as one of hip hop’s most energetic and explosive performers, his live shows are unmissable. And now, Australian fans will get to see one of hip hop’s finest when The Game makes his way down under for his LAX Tour 2009. The Game’s third album L.A.X was released in 2008 with many claiming this album was in fact his best. Rumours have continued to circulate that this will be The Game’s last album, but until he hangs it up, he is gonna keep acting (like he did in the recent hit film “Street Kings” opposite Keanu Reeves), and best believe he is gonna keep rapping. He can’t help it. It’s in his blood. It’s a part of his psyche. His soul. Don’t miss the opportunity to see one of hip hop’s best performing all his hits, “How We Do”, “Hate It Or Love It”, “Let’s Ride”, “My Life”, “Games Pain”, “Let’s Ride”, “Wouldn’t Get Far” and many more. This mic-wielding phenomenon hits Festival Hall on Thursday August 7, so, get on it … peace.
