Compton rapper, Game, is no stranger to controversy, as he has feuded with nearly everyone. Most recently, Game has had a legal beef with RZA. The Wu-Tang rapper produced a beat for Game, but sued for it back.

In promotion of The R.E.D. Album, Game has released a new mixtape, Purp & Patron. The RZA-produced "Heartbreaker" was used on the release. Upon hearing the mixtape, RZA demanded the song be removed from the mixtape.

Game spoke on the situation, saying he was upset and confused, but he would not diss RZA. RZA also discussed the matter and he said the song was for The R.E.D. Album, not a mixtape. He went on to say he has nothing but respect for Game.

Recently, Game expressed a similar feeling about the situation and he said he would still like to work with RZA in the future.

Game has returned to the spotlight over the past few days. Last week, he released his mixtape, Purp & Patron, which has become a success. The first single, "The Kill," has been accepted by Nas. Also, Game's mixtape has been co-signed by Funkmaster Flex.

Aside from "The Kill," one of the most popular songs on the mixtape has been "Heartbreaker." The song has been very popular with fans, critics, and other rappers. But, RZA was more familiar with the song than anyone else.

RZA filed an injuncion over the "Heartbreaker" song and forced Game to remove it from the mixtape. Game spoke about the situation, saying he found it crazy that RZA sued him. He said RZA sent him the beat and gave him his blessing to use it.

Initially, the song was going to be a part of The R.E.D. Album, but the sample was unclearable. Because of that, Game made it a part of the Purp & Patron mixtape. While Game was upset that RZA sued him over the beat, Game said there are no hard feelings. He has nothing but love for the entire Wu-Tang Clan, having worked with Raekwon on 2008's L.A.X.
