However the future rapper became one of the Bloods, another gang.
The neighborhood was controlled by the gang Crips, and his parents were members of it, as the musician once stated. There the very environment predetermined the young man’s destiny.
For a while Jayceon lived at foster-parents’ place in the suburbs of Los Angeles, but when he was thirteen years old, his mother got the guardianship, so The Game moved with her to Compton. The family of the future performer proved to be not of the close-knit kind, and parents of The Game divided. Jayceon Terrell Taylor, performing under the pseudonym The Game was born in 1979 in Los Angeles.
