In 2005 The Game's debut album (The Documentary) was a success with the help of two hit singles such as "How We Do" and "Hate It or Love It" featuring 50 Cent. The album went gone 4x platinum, however 50 Cent felt that the Game was disloyal for saying he wanted to work with artists with whom G-Unit were feuding, and he formally dismissed the rapper.
Thats when the contreversry began, Game went to confront 50 cent at the hot 97 studio where 50 was conducting an interview. One of the Game's friends was shot outside the studio.
