Biography.The Game was born in Los Angeles, California in 1979 and spent the earliest years of his life in the district of La Brea. When he was 4 years old his family moved to Compton, California.After his older sister accused his father of sexual molestation when Taylor was 5, his family was split up and The Game lived with a foster family for eight years in,a suburb of Los Angeles (located immediately southwest of Compton). When Taylor was 13 his mother was regranted custody and he was reunited with his mother in Compton when he was 13. The Game spent his later life living in a primarily Crip gang neighborhood known as Santana Blocc, although the rapper would grow up to become a member of the Bloods. Taylor claims that his mother and father were both affiliated with Crip gangs. After graduating from Compton High School, Taylor had a short stint at Washington State University on a basketball scholarship. However, The Game was kicked out in his first semester because of drug allegations. It was then that he started fully embracing street life and turning towards selling drugs. At 18 years of age he began to follow his older half brother "Big Fase 100" who was the leader of the Cedar Block Pirus. Taylor was shot five times after a failed drug deal in 2001,receiving bullet wounds to the heart, stomach, and arms. This attack put him in a three day coma and while recovering in the hospital, he decided to pursue a career in the rap industry. One June 30, 2004 his son and only child Harlem Caron Taylor was born. Baron Davis was named Harlem's godfather.
