The Game has released The Credits, a 12-track deluxe edition of his acclaimed DJ Drama Gangsta Grillz mixtape Every Movie Needs A Trailer. The project arrives as a continuation of the momentum built by the original release and features production led by Mike & Keys, alongside contributions from Swizz Beatz, Jason Martin, and Jake One.

The Credits expands on the cinematic tone of the original tape, pairing sharp West Coast energy with heavyweight features from 21 Savage, Ty Dolla $ign, Conway the Machine, Benny the Butcher, Dom Kennedy, and Boosie Badazz. Hosted by DJ Drama, the project leans fully into Gangsta Grillz tradition while maintaining a polished, modern edge.

Speaking on the release, The Game shared that the response to the original Gangsta Grillz tape inspired the deluxe edition, while fans await his upcoming studio album The Documentary 3. The project serves as both a statement and a bridge, offering new material while building anticipation for what comes next.

Across its 12 tracks, The Credits balances raw street narratives with reflective moments, anchored by Mike & Keys’ signature production style. The result is a cohesive release that feels deliberate rather than supplemental, reinforcing The Game’s ability to remain culturally relevant more than two decades into his career.
