There's a new Kanye West-featuring track, "Mula," off of The Game's upcoming album, Documentary 2. The new song was featured on the original Documentary 2 tracklist that Game shared a couple of weeks ago. Since, the Compton rapper announced that Documentary 2 will be a double LP with 19 additional tracks.
He hasn't yet shared the disc two tracklist but said fans can expect features from Lil Wayne, Nas and YG. Part 1 of the album will be released on Oct, 9 and Part 2 on Oct. 16.
"Mula" features some impassioned rhyming from Game and an off-key808s & Heartbreak-style hook from West, who also contributes background ad-libs during Game's verses. Sevn Thomas, a Toronto producer who came up under Boi-1da, samples the vocals from
Phantogram's "Fall In Love," layers the song to a spacey, ambient effect. It's a far-out record for the veteran emcee to try his chops at, but Game is still able to make sense of the disorienting production by doing what he does best -- rapping hard in lengthy bursts.
"What you know about freestyling vs. each other outside of Niketown without a dollar in your jeans," raps Game in the track, which has since been pulled from the Internet. He's, of course, referring to the true story of when Game and West -- when Game was an unknown and shortly after West had released his debut album -- went against each other in a rap battle at a L.A. Niketown during a Nelly release party in 2004.
Soon after, Game and West went on to create some storied collaborations. West produced "Dreams" off Game's debut, The Documentary, and, also in 2005, Game lent a verse to Late Registration's "Crack Music."
