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.

The Game Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Blowing chronic out my mouth while they taking pictures
I tell that bitch drop that ass like she hit the switches
I take the phone and take a selfie while I'm fuckin' bitches
Now bounce to a nigga that know Dre and O'Shea
I kill that pussy like O.J. and no way a nigga gonna outsmoke me
I smoke more than B Real and that nigga Snoop D-O-double G
Throw up the Westside, even if your fuckin' rag on the left side
A little Henny, nigga with an attitude, what's up?
Yeah, six-four Impala and I'm outta there
Bitch riding shotgun, looking like a bobble head
Wait, wait, wait for a minute and let a nigga roll his blunt
If you still fuck with Dr. Dre, get high
If you miss 2Pac and Nate, let's get high
I mean, every time you come to LA, get high
Ain't it good to you? Hell yeah
The doc said I had a weed addiction
So I'm smoking this chronic with no prescription, get high
Break it down, get a blunt and twist it
Game got his own strain, Doc 2 edition
When I say roll it up, roll it up trick
It's Aftermath, let 'em know who you fuckin' with
All we do is smoke and get high
We be having slips, let 'em smell this shit
Thirty-five million and I still might sell this shit
Gray smoke, elephant
Look around this party, ain't this motherfucka hella lit?
These niggas is zeros, we came with pre-rolls
Same niggas used to moving kilos, get high
Yeah, all fuckin' day nigga
See me bouncin' in the six-six-tre
Like I won't let this motherfucka tear up the store
Three-wheeling with a cloud of kush in my jaw
Thousand dollar blunts, what a nigga want?
Pistol grip pump, ride with it in the fuckin' trunk
California skunk, nigga this the funk
Top of the Roscoe's with the front, my Impala, get high
If you still fuck with Dr. Dre, get high
If you miss 2Pac and Nate, let's get high
I mean, every time you come to LA, get high
Ain't it good to you? Hell yeah
The doc said I had a weed addiction
So I'm smoking this chronic with no prescription, get high
Break it down, get a blunt and twist it
Game got his own strain, Doc 2 edition, get high
In "Get High," The Game is expressing his love for marijuana and the culture surrounding it. He compares himself to Method Man and Redman, two well-known rappers who are also associated with smoking weed. The line "blowing chronic out my mouth while they taking pictures" suggests that he is unapologetically open about his marijuana use, even in public situations. He doesn't care if people see him indulging in this habit.

He proudly claims to outsmoke other famous smokers such as B Real and Snoop Dogg, asserting his dominance in the realm of marijuana consumption. The mention of O.J. Simpson is a controversial reference, as it alludes to the infamous murder trial, but in this context, it signifies his ability to "kill" the sexual encounters he has with women.
The chorus reinforces the idea of getting high as a way to honor rap legends like Dr. Dre, Tupac, and Nate Dogg. The mention of "Doc 2 edition" refers to The Game's own strain of weed, which carries the name of his album "The Documentary 2."
