Charges against Game dropped

Last week, it seemed as if Game had finally did himself in. Game has made a second career out of pushing people's buttons. It is bad enough he is one of rap's biggest stars and he often disrespects the police. But, this disrespect was taken to another level last week.

While on Twitter, Game released the telephone number of one of the deputy sherrifs. Game said the phone lines to his BWS headquarters were backed up. The Compton rapper was hiring interns for his record label and released the sherrif's phone numer as a joke.

The joke ended up being on Game, as charges were filed. Game interviewed with CNN to explain the situation. He said one of his friends was playing with his Twitter through his phone. His friend was posting random numbers and one happened to be the number to the sherrif.

Earlier that day, Game had made a tweet, himself, about looking for interns. However, later in the day, the telephone numbers were tweeted. Many of his followers in the Los Angeles area assumed this was for the internship and dialed the numbers. Game said he never wanted anything like this to happen, as the last thing he would want is to ever trick his fans.

Once he realized things had gotten out of hand, Game said he did not want any of this. With a girlfriend and several children, he did not want the bad publicity. Game offered an apology to both his fans and his family for the misunderstanding. The Los Angeles Sherrif Department accepted the apology, saying it was well-received and relevant.

The LASD also said the criminal charges against Game had been dropped and they love the positive message he issued in his apology.

Game under investigation for sharing Sherrif Officer's name

Weeks before the release of his fourth studio album, The R.E.D. Album, Game is under investigation. In the months leading up to the release of his album, Game has kept himself in the news. After months of being on the sidelines, Game emerged with "Red Nation." In the months between singles, Game has commented on current hip hop events.

Game intended to return to making headlines, himself, in the month of August. First, he challenged Jay-Z and Kanye West to a friendly beef, following the release of their album. Following his diss, Game offered a slight diss to Lil Wayne. With their albums coming on the same day, Game vowed to outsell and have a better album than Wayne.

Known for his antics, Game took things too far, recently. Perhaps receiving calls for internships, Game offered another phone number as a contact to the Black Wall Street offices. The number provided was actually the number to a Los Angeles County Sherrif deputy. The Los Angeles County Sherrif Department said Game's behavior was beyond irresponsible and each call should warrant an additional charge.

Via Twitter, Game proclaimed his innocence.
