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."

I make it hot
{Lloyd}
Olivia, let's go
What's up ladies, I'm back baby
The boy wonder got the club goin' crazy
I'm two-steppin' in my armor, in my 80
But I ain't in the VIP unless they pay me
It's like I practice stuntin'
Ma, I have ya mattress jumpin'
And I know it sounds like I'm frontin' but I ain't
Jerk, jerk ya body and work, work 'em proudly
Go and hurt somebody if I don't hit that
If you don't see 'em with me don't ask 'bout 50
'Cause if he was here he'd be standing right here
And if you don't care so much about my fame
Then why you keep starin' at my chain
I'm doin' my thing
From the club to the telly on a late night
Box of Magnums, sippin' Henn, finna get right
Checkout time ain't 'til daylight
From the club to the telly on a late night
{Olivia}
Ooh babe, you know I like it when you feel on me
Pullin' on my waste, I'm feelin' energy
Gettin' kinda hard to keep ya hands off me{Yeah, right there}
So slide a little lower, put ya hands on my thigh
Maybe I know you like it if that's right
I'ma show you how to make it last all night
Now let me see you shake it
{Chorus}:
Twist it, shake it, bend but don't break it
Work that body, gettin' so crazy
Don't hurt nobody up in this party
Twist it, shake it, bend but don't break it
Twist it, shake it, bend but don't break it
Work that body, gettin' butt-naked
Don't hurt nobody up in this party
Twist it, shake it, bend but don't break it
Mix a little hypno with some Hennessey
Like the way this jig goes when it goes through me
Think I need to stop because I'm feelin' tipsy
{One more drink}
Baby now I can't stop 'cause I'm in the zone
Shorty keep it comin' boy, I'm grown
I don't want to finish this dance alone
Ooh I want to see ya
{Chorus}
Row, row, row down low, shake it fast for me
Work your body, don't hurt nobody up in this party
Now let me see ya
Row, row, row down low, shake it fast for me
Work your body, don't hurt nobody up in this party
Now let me see ya
{Chorus}
The Game's song Twist It featuring Lloyd and Olivia is about their experiences of a night out at a club. The three artists express their love for drinking and partying, while also having provocative lyrics about sex. The opening line of the song "I make it hot" suggests that the night will be heated and full of passion. Lloyd raps about his club experience while wearing armor, giving the impression that he's a knight entertaining the ladies. He emphasizes his fictional sexuality by saying provocative things like "Ma, I have ya mattress jumpin'." He also emphasizes that he's the man of the hour by stating that he won't get into the VIP section unless he gets paid. Furthermore, he emphasizes his body prowess and wants the ladies to dance "proudly" but warns them that there will be consequences if they don't dance to his liking.
Olivia comes in with sensual lyrics that correlate with Lloyd's. She expresses that she likes when someone feels her waist and thighs, and the chorus encourages the audience to dance, twist, shake, and bend their bodies but not to break them. The song is catchy and upbeat, and it tells listeners that it isn't afraid to address taboo topics such as casual sex and the party scene. The song's overall tone and theme are hedonism, and it encourages the audience to embrace their desires without facing consequences as long as they don't hurt anybody in the party.
