Shyne & Game Twitter War

Game and one of his heroes, Shyne engaged in an exchange of words yesterday morning on twitter over Kendrick Lamar's "Good Kid, M.A.A.D City" album. Shyne had earlier given his opinion on the album, labelling it "trash". One of Shyne's follower's agreed with him, and Game got caught in the mix and told the person to "shut up!"  Afterwards, Shyne and Game went back and fort, till Game said...well, let me let you read through for yourself.

"RT @OriginalShyne: Listened to the Kendrick Lamar album during lunch and @OriginalShyne was right. TRASH! - B*tch, shut up !!!," he tweeted late Wednesday (October 24).

"RT @OriginalShyne: @thegame Wassup son? Why u involving yourself on something don't concern u? - If its bout KDOT.. It CONCERN ME !!!!!"

"RT @OriginalShyne: @thegame u outta pocket youngster!!! I felt gkmd album was trash, deal wit! - naw blood, YOU TRASH.. Deal wit that !!!"

"The west is mine !!!!! Protect it & EVERYTHING in it at ALL COSTS !!!! F*ck n*ggas !!! Thank God. #JesusPiece" (Game's Twitter)

Game used to take Kendrick Lamar (then known as KDot) on tour with him in the late 00s, so Game is just looking out for his "people." But, Shyne is one of Game's Idols. On many occasions, he has credited Shyne as an influence on his rap career. And if you heard Game's first two mixtapes, back in 2002, before Documentary, you would hear a lot of "shyne" in his flow. Game even wanted to sign Shyne to his Black Wall Street Label at some point. What a shame it had to come to this.



And a quick run through, for those that don't know who Shyne is. He was hot in the early 00s, while signed to Puff Daddy's (Diddy's) Bad Boy Record label, but went to jail in 2001 for a gun charge he caught, after firing shots at a Manhattan bar in a bid to defend his boss (Diddy). He got out of jail in 2009, after serving 9 of his 10 years sentence, but was immediately deported to his home country- Belize. He is currently based in Europe, and working on how to get back to the states.
