Throughout his career, Game has always had issues with Jay-Z. At first, many felt it had to due with Game's previous feud with Jay-Z's protege`, Memphis Bleek. Game was signed to Get Low Recordz, which shared the same name as Bleek's Get Low Records.

Earlier this month, Game explained why he and Jay-Z do not get along. Game said Jay-Z was overly cocky when he met him for the first time. Now, Game is providing more details on what happened between himself and Jay-Z.

Game and Jay-Z first met seven years ago, while Game was still a part of G-Unit. Having grown up off Jay-Z, Game was excited to meet him. He asked Jay-Z for advice and was basically given the brush-off.

In response to Game's question, Jay-Z told Game most of the new rappers will not last anyway, so they need to try another lane. Ever since Jay-Z told him this, Game said he takes shots at the president of rap. For years, he has been hoping to bait Jay-Z into a full-fledged feud.
