Game has made a career off name-dropping. On his latest album, The R.E.D. Album, Game has a track called "Martians vs. Goblins." The song features Lil Wayne and Tyler, the Creator.

The song contains disses to Tyler Perry, Lil B, Bruno Mars, LeBron James and others. Towards the end of the song, Game said he had sex with Erykah Badu. Game raps "I spit like I had kids with Erykah Badu."

While Game does not have kids with Erykah Badu, Jay Electronica does. Jay Electronica told Game he is happy for his strong comeback. However, he is not pleased with him mentioning the mother of his child on the record.

Jay Electronica told Game Erykah Badu and her children love his music. He said Game should never mention the mother of his children again. With all of them supporting him and listening to his music, Jay Electronica does not want Game saying crazy things on the record. Jay Electronica said it was all love between himself and Game, but not want any more disrespectful lyrics.

Game discussed the song and said he only rapped so crazy because Tyler, the Creator was on the record. In doing a track with him, Game allowed himself to say anything crazy he wanted to say. While Game mentioned Erykah Badu, it was nothing like what he said about LeBron James and his mother.

Game has supported Tyler, the Creator and Odd Future ever since they debuted. Tyler, the Creator has had a major year, this year, with successful music and disses for both Chris Brown and Bruno Mars. During Odd Future's beef with Chris Brown, Game tried to diffuse the situation.

While the feud was not resolved, Game featured both crews on his album, The R.E.D. Album. Perhaps the most controversial track off the album is "Martians vs. Goblins." It should come as no surprise, to those familiar with Odd Future that the track features none other than Tyler, the Creator.

The song, which leaked last month, features Game rapping in a similar pattern to Tyler, the Creator. The gangsta rapper takes a gothic turn on the song, dissing Rihanna and Lil B in the opening lines of the song. Tyler, the Creator takes the second verse, dissing Chris Brown, Bruno Mars, Tyler Perry, and LeBron James. Game concludes the song going after Erykah Badu and LeBron James.

While Game is controversial, many did not expect him to say many of the things he said. Speaking on the song, Game said his lyrics were inspired by Tyler, the Creator. His reason for doing this was because "when you're on a song with Tyler, you can say whatever the fuck you want." Game admitted he is already outspoken on his songs, but Tyler takes things to another level. The Compton rapper went on to compare the newcomer to Eminem.

Eminem gained international fame in 1999 for his controversial lyrics. However, Tyler, the Creator's lyrics makes Eminem's seem conservative, at times. Game said Tyler is the Eminem of the West Coast.

Tyler, the Creator has replaced Eminem as the most-controversial rapper in the game. Tyler rose to fame behind his "Yonkers" single. On the track, Tyler takes aim at B.o.B. and Bruno Mars. The track earned him a response from Bobby Ray and Bruno Mars laughed it off.

On every track he is on, Tyler, the Creator says something controversial. Most recently, he collaborated with Game on "Martians vs. Goblins." It did not take long before Tyler, the Creator took more shots at Bruno Mars, "saying Bruno Mars is still getting fucked in the ass." Tyler, the Creator did not solely focus on Bruno Mars, however. He also aimed at filmmaker, Tyler Perry, saying the encounter took place in the closet Tyler Perry was in.

To round out the song, Tyler, the Creator pokes fun at Miami Heat star, LeBron James,' hairline and Game also pokes fun at James. In Game's line, he jokes about having sex with James' mother and Delonte West filming it. Game's line was a reference to the rumors of LeBron James' mother having sex with Delonte West during the 2010 NBA Playoffs. Back to Tyler, the Creator, he also mentions Nicki Minaj and the frequent delays of Dr. Dre's album, Detox.
