"I'm [starting] a worldwide search [for] the dopest MCs, male and female, [to] form my new group 'The Goon Squad,'" Game wrote. "Send your best record or freestyle. You got [one] shot! All demos [and] music will be listened to once."

Further details regarding the group were unknown at press time.
The Game is on tour overseas, where he will make stops in Australia and New Zealand next month.

"We know from experience having these sorts of performers is not helpful in terms of community safety," Rotorua Commander Bruce Horne said. "His message is a very bad one. He is certainly not someone I would be promoting as a role model for our young people. In fact, he is quite the opposite. He encourages them to get themselves into trouble."

The Game is also currently working on his fourth solo album, The R.E.D Album.
