1. Jayceon Terrell Taylor (born November 29, 1979 in Compton, California, United States), better known by his stage name Game, formerly known as The Game, is an American Grammy Award winning gangsta rapper signed to Aftermath Entertainment through his own label Black Wall Street Records, with which he founded with his half brother Big Fase 100. He rose to fame in 2005 with the success of his debut album, The Documentary, and his two Grammy nominations. Since then he has released several other critically acclaimed albums, 2006's Doctor's Advocate and 2008's LAX. The RED Album was released August 23, 2011. All of his four albums debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top 100, and he is widely considered to be a driving force in bringing back the West Coast hip hop scene and competing with many of his East Coast counterparts.
Studying various influential rap albums, Game developed a strategy to become a rapper himself and with help from Big Fase, they founded The Black Wall Street Records. The label originally featured such artists as Glasses Malone, Vita, and Nu Jerzey Devil, along with Game himself. His stage name was coined by his grandmother. Game first gained prominence when he attended a hip-hop summit hosted by Russell Simmons and Louis Farrakhan, releasing his first mixtape You Know What It Is Vol. 1 in 2002, followed by a record deal with the independent label, Get Low Recordz owned by JT the Bigga Figga. Originally Sean Combs of Bad Boy Records was going to sign him to his label, but Game's mixtape found the attention of famed producer Dr. Dre, who signed him to Aftermath Entertainment in 2003. In October 2004, he released his first album Untold Story through Get Low Recordz, which sold over 82,000 copies within its first three months. The album featured artists like Sean T, Young Noble (of the Outlawz), and JT the Bigga Figga. Game also appeared on various mixtapes hosted by DJ's such as DJ Kayslay, DJ Whoo Kid, and DJ Clue. Game also released a second mixtape You Know What It Is Vol. 2 through his own record label and appeared on the video game NBA Live 2004 on a song produced by Fredwreck called "Can't Stop Me". On January 24th, 2011, he released a mixtape entitled, "Purp & Patron."

City of Sin
The Game Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Living in the city of angels
And you'll still hear them sing (oh)
Welcome to the city of sin
Living in the city of angels
And you'll still hear them sing lullabies to the night
The Game's "City of Sin" paints a vivid picture of Los Angeles as a city with two faces - one of sin and one of heavenly beings. The song's opening line, "Welcome to the city of sin" introduces the dark side of Los Angeles, which is characterized by its gritty streets, hedonistic nightlife, and pervasive sense of danger. He contrasts this with the more idealized image of Los Angeles as the "city of angels" where people go to pursue their dreams and make it big in Hollywood.
The chorus repeats the song's central message, which is that no matter how much darkness there is in the city of sin, people will always find a way to make beautiful music and sing "lullabies to the night." This line captures the essence of L.A. as a place where creativity and hope can flourish in spite of the challenges and obstacles that residents face.
Overall, "City of Sin" is a powerful tribute to Los Angeles and its complex identity as a city that embodies both light and darkness.
Line by Line Meaning
Welcome to the city of sin
Greetings to the place where moral values are disregarded
Living in the city of angels
Existing in a city that is supposed to be associated with divine beings
And you'll still hear them sing (oh)
Despite the contradiction of sin and angels, you can still hear them singing
Welcome to the city of sin
Again, greetings to the place where moral values are disregarded
Living in the city of angels
Still existing in a city that is supposed to be associated with divine beings
And you'll still hear them sing lullabies to the night
Even though there is sin, people still find ways to calm themselves and enjoy the night
