The R.E.D. Album is the upcoming fourth studio album by rapper Game. It is set to be released on February 16, 2010, by Interscope Records.

Background

Game had confirmed that he would retire after his 2008 album, LAX. However, he announced that he would release another album titled D.O.C. or Diary of Compton, if he could get production from the original N.W.A members. In November 2009, HipHopDX interviewed Game and he stated that the reason he would not release D.O.C. was because he needed help from Dr. Dre, Ice Cube and Snoop Dogg.

In 2009 he confirmed the title The R.E.D. Album and that the title was to signify his "RE-Dedication" to hip-hop. The album was set to be released on December 1, 2009 but was pushed to December 8, 2009. However, Game has pushed the album back to February 16, 2010 because Dr. Dre wanted more time to finish production for the album.

"Krazy" was released as a street single on October 29, 2009. It features Gucci Mane and production by Timbaland. "Big Money" was released as the first official single also on October 29, 2009. Another song released and is being titled as a single has been "Better Days"

Recording

Game recorded with Timbaland and Drumma Boy in Los Angeles. Game revealed to MTV that he had been working with J. R. Rotem, Mike Lynn, Cool & Dre and hopes to get production from Kanye West. In an interview with XXL, Boi-1da stated that he had given beats to Game for the album. Game stated that Dr. Dre and Pharrell will be executive producing the album.

XXL confirmed features including Lil Wayne, Lady Gaga, Pharrell, Gucci Mane and Kanye West. Akon has also been confirmed to be featured on a track titled "Would I Be Wrong?" with production from Polow da Don. Game confirmed a collaboration with Justin Timberlake saying that "I never thought in my life that I would ever work with Justin, and then for it to turn out and be as catastrophic as it was amazing." He also confirmed that he enlisted Nicki Minaj for a feature.
