The Game – 1992 [Album Cover]

the-game-1992

The Game reveals the artwork for his upcoming studio album “1992”. The LP is set to drop sometime later this year.

“The cover art is inspired by what was going on in my life, my city & the world when I was 12 years old coming into my teenage years: The Los Angeles Riots, Michael Jordan & the Dream Team featured above on my shirt won Olympic Gold… Crips & Bloods were both pulling me in both directions & joining one of the gangs was almost a normality for a young African American male growing up in Compton & the surrounding areas of Los Angeles County….. Rodney King getting abused by the cops was an unforgettable incident & caused mass hysteria worldwide & the famous OJ Simpson car chase/trial was a huge worldwide televised situation that racially divided a country…. So these are some of the many topics based around my childhood touched on in this album that I wanted to include in the artwork.” – The Game
