Today marks 18 years since The Game was shot five times and in a coma for three days. The Compton rapper has taken to Instagram today to share old video footage of him talking about the incident and his wounds, and also shared a message reflecting on his older self.
“I’m tellin y’all, I was a real fuck up…” he said. “I didn’t go nowhere without 3 guns on me… I used to play basketball wit a glock on my waist in the holster… Compton made me that way. 2 dead brothers, n everybody make in my family gang banned…. that was the way.”
He continues, “I didn’t have any children when I got shot now I have 3 & their doing amazing in life. Back then, I didn’t care if I lived or died & that was normal to me. I never expected nor cared to live past 25 years old. I literally didn’t give a fuck !!!”
