The Game sounds off on his new track '911 Is a Joke (Cop Killa),' which borrows it's title from Public Enemy's 1990 hit. Taking a cue from fellow West Coast acts N.W.A., who released the controversial track 'F--- Tha Police' as a form of protest against racial profiling and police brutality in 1988, and Ice T's 'Cop Killer,' the Game is sounding off in response to the acquittal of three New York police officers who shot and killed 23-year-old Sean Bell hours before his wedding day.

"911 Is A Joke" is also slated to appear on the rapper's upcoming album, 'L.A.X (Los Angeles Times),' which is due in stores on July 8.

The Game speaks out against police brutality and the recent Sean Bell verdict on the new track '911 is a Joke,' which the rap star will premiere on his new website ThisizGame.com. "I'm outraged and speaking out for my generation that are afraid to speak out against police brutality and murder," the Game said in a recent interview.

No stranger to gang violence and communities often struggling with poor relationship with the police, the Game knows all too well how it feels to fear authorities. "I grew up in Compton and had to stay silent because of the fear that was prevalent in my community, but now that I have a voice I'm speaking out," the rapper said.

The rapper dedicates the new track to Bell, who was shot 50 times by three New York City detectives on his wedding day. "This could have easily been me, my brother, my family. So this song is for Sean Bell from my heart," the Game explained. "My deepest condolences goes out to his family and wife, Nicole Bell."

After spending eight days in the pokie, the Game is ready to get down to business. According to MTV, the West Coast rap star headed straight to the studio after being released from Twin Towers Correctional Facility last week. The Game proclaims "I'm free as a motherf-----' bird I swear" in the opening line of the Cool and Dre-produced track dubbed 'Big Dreams,' which is set to appear on the rapper's upcoming album, 'L.A.X.'

"When he was going to jail ... he said he didn't know how long he's gonna be going in for," Dre told MTV. "But he was like, 'When I come out, I'm ready to go.' So the day he got out, we got the phone call, like, 'Yo, come to L.A. right now.' So me and Cool jumped on the plane."

After serving only eight days of a 60-day prison sentence for a felony charge of possession of a firearm in a school zone, the Game is heading back to court. The man allegedly assaulted by the emcee during a basketball game last year has filed a lawsuit against the rapper for assault and battery, civil rights violation and negligence.

Shannon Rodrick claims the Game bad-mouthed the opposing team and sucker punched him in the face. Rodrick also alleges that the rap star, whose real name is Jayceon Taylor, pulled a gun out of his Cadillac Escalade and pointed it at him while saying, "I'm going to blast this fool."

Taylor was arrested after the incident and eventually pleaded no contest to felony possession. Rodrick is seeking an unspecified amount of damages.

According to reports, Taylor got into an altercation with a player on the opposing team and pulled a gun from his Cadillac Escalade.

Chamillionaire, David Banner, Nelly and the Game joined KRS-One at the Los Angeles Recording School from February 7-9 to lay down a track as part of the rap legend's relaunch of his Stop the Violence Movement.

KRS-One -- aka the Teacha -- and Boogie Down Productions were the forces behind hip-hop's 1989 anti-violence movement, which produced the song 'Self Destruction,' featuring Public Enemy's Chuck D, MC Lyte, Kool Moe Dee and D-Nice.

Way to go Game. In an extremely bold move, Los Angeles-based rap star the Game -- currently facing weapons charges -- has accused the police of stealing $44,000 from him during a criminal investigation.

The Game's attorneys claim that the police are withholding the confiscated money despite receiving a motion ordering them to release it. The presiding judge set a hearing date for January 22, to decide whether the LAPD should be held in contempt of court for withholding the rapper's loot. The Game's weapons possession trial will begin on February 4.
