50 Cent and The Game (Photo: n/a)

A showdown was set for 50 Cent and his G-Unit crew versus The Game come June 24th, when their albums were due in stores.

That, however, won't take place any longer.

Earlier this week, 50 Cent told MTV that he planned to push the release date of The Game's third album, Los Angeles Times (LAX), back to make room for the release of G-Unit's second album, Terminate On Sight, claiming he still has control over the Compton rapper's career.

"I'mma wait a little, then I'm just gonna push his album back," 50 told MTV. "I don't think there's anyone that would legitimately look at him like it's a competition, him versus G-Unit."

However, that is now irrelevant now, since both of the albums have been moved back to separate dates.

Interscope confirmed that the new release dates will be July 1 for the G-Unit, while The Game's forthcoming album is set for July 8.

"I will drop my album on July 8 in order to clean up the mess 50 made with his new release on July 1," The Game said in a statement. "I thank all my fans for their support on the new single 'Pain' featuring Keyshia Cole."

okay..for real...The Game can rap...i'm not gonna front he's a great rapper...i'm just sayin', street credibility wise, he isn't loved by Big Fase 100, his own brother, who basically birthed his rap career...I don't know if Dr. Dre and The Game are in contact or whatever, but for real too...The Game just needs to move on hating on G-Unit...I really want to see The Game give thanks sometimes for the opportunity that 50 Cent gave him with his part in his career rather than hatin' on him..

OK. I see now why Game is going mad,, it makes since - he probably battlin wit havin to give that ni99a 50 a dirt nap...things like that make you go crazy - to have to fight that typr of temptation to make a ni99a REST.....I can't belive he is in a situation like that..i would just break the contract and let the battle begin...but he would neede a label that will push his albums to the max. Stay up GAME...1
