GAME SPEAKS ON WORKING WITH PHARRELL
The Game did the interview for Rolling Out, here’s the part where he speaks about working with Pharrell :
“Me and Pharell … we established in six months’ time a sort of like a brotherhood. … I’m pretty sure [if] you talk to him, he’d say the same thing — it’s a bond that’s unbreakable,” he says. “And it’s not really [about the] music. It’s outside of music. Pharrell [gets into the studio] and we get in a zone and everything becomes ABC. It’s just real easy to [get] together in the studio. The songs just come out so remarkable and so crazy that everyone from women to men — you can be a thug or you can have a 9 to 5 — everybody appreciates the music, so I know that what we’re doing is catastrophic.”

Pharrell’s Influence:
“I think that the last person that told me something that I really appreciated was Pharrell, and I didn’t know that was possible. My boss is Jimmy Iovine, and Dre and my manager all tried to talk to me. Everybody always tried to steer ‘Game’ in the right direction or tell me to fall back from doing this. But I do me,” he says. “But it wasn’t until me and Pharrell had conversations … [that] I really understood his perspective of who I was and my career and my music — and he told me from a fan’s standpoint and not from being Pharrell Williams. It meant a lot to me. That’s probably the only person that I’ve taken advice from. Other than that, it’s me behind those decisions.”
