The Game is in legal hot water behind an alleged fight between he and his cousin during a family member's funeral. The suit, filed in a Los Angeles court, claims the Compton rapper and four others assaulted the plaintiff, Robert Kirkwood, during his sister's funeral service last summer.According to the document, Kirkwood confronted Game for not paying for a portion of the funeral costs for his late cousin. The paperwork, which refers to Game as someone who "fashions himself as some kind of rapper, gangster and/or celebrity," states that Kirkwood sustained severe and permanent injuries as a result of the incident. He is seeking compensation to cover medical expenses, loss of income and general damages.
However, Game's recollection of the incident does not match his cousin's story. "Two days prior to this funeral, my cousin Kirky, he's already got his Crip [gang] homies at the funeral," he said in an interview last year. "He called my brother and asked him would he jump in if him and his homies jumped me at the funeral...He's already plotting on me. When I get there, I'm thinking the funeral and the death of his sister would calm all that. When I see him, I shake his hand, I go sit down and tell him I love him...Mo money, mo problems. Now, my family is my worst enemy."
The rapper has not yet filed a response to the suit.

So let me ask you then, what sort of "advice" did you get from Hip Hop? How to bag dimes? How to cut weight? How to committ senseless acts of crime? I'm curious.

You do know that there is a such thing as positive rap right? Society as a whole ( oh and by the way more suburban white kids buy more rap music than blacks and latinos ) just want to hear negativity. No one wants to hear anything positive. Just look at the news and the highest grossing movies. More times than not there r rated.

WHY DOES RAP SOUND LIKE CRAP? WHY DOES RAP RHYME WITH CRAP? WHY IS RAP CRAP, BECAUSE IF RAP HAD A SMELL IT WOULD SMELL LIKE $HIT.IF YOU COULD SEE RAP IT WOULD BE A TERD.AND IF YOU COULD TASTE RAP YOUR TASTE BUDS WOULD TELL YOU ITS $HIT.

Why would the rapper be obligated to pay for funeral costs for a cousin? That doesn't even make sense. A cousin is not an immediate family member.

Because they were blood (no pun intended) first. He and his cousin may have been very close. Him being a "rapper" has nothing to do with it. Wow, some relative you are.

I agree with you 100%. I'm not obligated to pay for my cousins funeral, but if I choose to pay for it or contribute to it, then that's something else. Maybe being a rapper has nothing to do with the issue, but the Game having money because he is a rapper has everything to do with it.
