Kanye West, Dr. Dre, Timbaland Producing The Game's 'The Documentary 2'; Album Due Out This Summer

The Game offered a few details about his upcoming album The Documentary 2 yesterday, March 11, on Power 106's The Cruz Show. The rapper said he is about 90 percent done with the effort, which is due out sometime this summer. Producers for the album include Kanye West, Timbaland and Swizz Beatz as well as Dr. Dre, who The Game is waiting for to get back from vacation to finish the album.

"I'll get with Dre when he gets back next week and we'll wrap up," the rapper said.

Just Blaze and Scott Storch have also worked on the album, which is a rare thing for the latter, The Game joked. As for his time spent with Yeezy, the artist said, "You get a good solid week out of Ye if you have history."

The Game stopped by the studio to premiere his new tune "The Soundtrack" featuring Meek Mill. Check out the track below, via Rap-Up.

In January, The Game celebrated the 10th anniversary of his debut album The Documentary. Dr. Dre, Kendrick Lamar and O.T. Genesis all showed up at the special concert event.

The Documentary went straight to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 after its 2005 release. The effort featured 50 Cent, Nate Dogg and Eminem, among others. Critics loved the album.

"The Documentary is the best West Coast street-rap album since DJ Quik's 2002 LP Under tha Influence," Pitchfork wrote. "All of the G-Unit solo albums thus far have been aesthetically unified, a rarity in hip-hop; the tracks on The Documentary actually sound like they belong on the same album. Dre produces five of the album's 17 songs, applying his recent stripped-down cinematic style, and many of the record's other producers follow his lead."
