Tony Yayo Says It’s All Love W/ Game: “When I First Met Game, His Mom Was Calling My Phone” [Video]

G-Unit‘s Tony Yayo recently talked about his feelings toward one-time rival Game. Despite past disputes, the “Talk of New York” explained they’re now-peaceful status in 2016.

In a new interview with Tim Westwood, Yayo said his past problems with Game really came from his affiliation with jailed music executive Jimmy Henchman.

“I never really had an issue with Game,” Yayo said. “My issue is with [Game’s former manager] Jimmy Henchman. You know what I’m saying? I didn’t smack his son. So when somebody is trying to sue you and kill you at the same time, it’s like, you got your wife suing me but shots is flying back and forth. I just looked at it as some real sucker sh*t. He had a lot of bricks at that time so rumor is he had a half a brick on my head or a brick on my head, money on 50 [Cent’s] head. That’s the rumor in the streets I been hearing, you just gotta learn how to move when it’s drama. But my beef wasn’t with Game, my beef was with Jimmy Henchman. I felt like it was a divide and conquer thing. When I first met Game, when I first came home, his mom was calling my phone. Him and his mother, thanking me. I’m a loyal dude, bro – my mistake was thinking a lot of people was my friend when they wasn’t. It was just business.” (Tim Westwood TV)

On Game’s recent “What Your Life Like” song, he referenced his stance toward Unit boss 50 Cent.

Last month, Game revealed his latest conversation with 50 and did not rule out a possible G-Unit reunion.

“I chopped it up with 50 in LA and we had a conversation, like a month ago, for bout 10, 15 minutes and the crazy part about it is, I don’t know if it’s us getting older or whatever it was, we couldn’t even really remember what happened. He was like, ‘I don’t know what happened,’ and I was like, ‘I don’t either.’ So we dapped it up and took a shot and went our separate ways. Not necessarily saying that’s going to mean it’s a G-Unit reunion or Game and 50 are about to be buddy-buddy or do songs but we chopped it up in a good light and I felt good about it after that.” (Hot 97)

In May, the California hip-hop artist downplayed the idea of returning to the Unit.

“Yeah, I don’t know where that came from, man, but I can’t see that happening no time in the near future,” Game said in an interview. “But uh, he’s doing his thing, man, I’m doing my thing and Banks, Buck, Yayo, they all doing their thing. Everybody is just doing their thing.” (HHDX)
