The Game says that The Documentary 2 will be dropping in June. During an interview with Revolt TV at The Documentary’s 10-Year Anniversary Party, the West Coast mainstay said that he’s dropping the follow up to his 2005 album The Documentary on June 30. Game has a special reason for choosing that day on the calendar. June 30 also happens to be the birthday of his eldest son, Harlem.

Outraged Petitioners Demand Kanye West’s Removal From Festival
Remember back in 2008 when British music fans (including the perpetually grouchy Noel Gallagher) got their knickers in a bunch because Jay Z was headlining Glastonbury? There was an outcry over Jay being the first rapper to headline Glastonbury, apparently because he wasn’t “rock” enough to handle the top slot on the bill.
Well, it’s 2008 all over again. Glastonbury booked Kanye West to headline the festival’s Saturday lineup, and fans are already demanding that Yeezus be dumped from the lineup.
According to a Change.org petition signed by more than 21,000 people (as of Tuesday afternoon), it’s because “Kanye West is an insult to music fans all over the world” and not “deserving.”
Why isn’t Kanye good enough for Glastonbury? The reason, of course, is rock elitism. “Cancel Kanye West’s slot and get a rock band,” the petition demands, adding, “We spend hundreds of pounds to attend glasto, and by doing so, expect a certain level of entertainment.” For the record, Foo Fighters are headlining Friday night’s Glastonbury lineup.
