In this clip, The Game opened up about his troubled teenage years and his time in jail. The Game admitted to Vlad that he was arrested twice as a teenager, while also managing to slip through undetected on other occasions. Known as an "intelligent gangster", he was strategic in his approach to potential crime and selling drugs, ensuring his friends would avoid harmful situations. His first time in county jail stemmed from car theft in his 11th grade, an experience he described as a "rude awakening". With no gang tattoos yet, he managed to blend in and avoid the isolation of the gang module. A year later, with gang tattoos, he was identified as a gang member. While describing the harsh reality of county jail, he acknowledged how fortunate he was not to have lost his life within its walls. Despite a passion for basketball, he soon realized it wasn't his destined path, leading him to his rap career.
