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."

When I touchdown
That California feelings in the atmosphere
You know, You know, You know
When I touchdown
Its wall to wall with sexy ladies up in here
Touchdown
Kick the Roberto Cavall's off and lets talk-sex
Let me whisper in your ear how you like your-sex
Should I unzip your-dress
Step on out girl and tell me whats next
Do you love me,
Yes
Do you want me,
Yes
Then let me wipe the oil all on your, flesh
Take you out of them Vicky's make you forget about your, ex
Let me spray this wipe cream on your, chest
I go downtown
You go downtown, next
Unstrap my bulletproof, vest
Take two steps back and just, flex
And by now you got to be, wet
Like the ocean after the sun, sets
Its over climb up on my, chest
I wore that ass out
Girl just, rest
[Chorus]
[Raheem DaVaughn]
When I step up in the club
You know its going down in here tonight
Put that Belvedere on ice
Let me know how you feel
Girl is it real girl
Just make sure you understand
When I put this in your hand
Its so real
So real
Candy rain drippin' down your window
Close the curtains and take off your cloths
I'll make you say oh, oh, oh
[Chorus]
[The Game]
There she goes again talking all that, trash
Girl stop playing I tapped that, ass
We can go real slow or do it, fast
Just like I thought you ran out of, gas
And girl you like the new s-class
Every time I look at you I wanna, smash
Get inside you smash
You drive me crazy girl I can just, crash
Jump in your pool and, splash
Then slow it down like an hour, glass
Turn around girl look at that, ass
Beautiful as an Eli Manning, pass
Round two lets roll some grass
Get high, think about it then, laugh
I wanna turn you on
Let me pop your, tags
You so fly I wanna check your, bags
[Chorus]
The song Touchdown by The Game featuring Raheem Devaughn is a booty call anthem with explicit lyrics, laced with references to sex and the power of California wine. The chorus is led by Raheem who delivers a catchy hook about the atmosphere of California when Touchdown happens. When The Game jumps on the track, one can feel the energy and the intensity of the song increasing, as he talks about sex in various forms, painting vivid pictures of sexual escapades. The line “Kick the Roberto Cavalli's off and lets talk-sex” is a direct reference to the famous designer Cavalli, and The Game saying he wants to get down to business. The line “Let me wipe the oil all on your, flesh” is graphic, pointing towards the act of slumber into more sensual activities.
The Game's explicit lines continue in the second verse with him saying, “There she goes again talking all that, trash / Girl stop playing I tapped that ass / We can go real slow, or do it, fast / Just like I thought you ran out of gas”. He then talks about how beautiful the woman is and how her physical appearance is as great as Eli Manning's pass. Despite its intense sexual overtones, the song is catchy, and the beat is enjoyable. Raheem's voice adds a relaxing vibe that blends incredibly well with the beat. Overall, Touchdown is a song about two people intending to enjoy themselves fully with each other.
