Interscope recording artist The Game is currently gearing up for the release of his latest album, LAX, due in stores early July. The Game broke into the music industry by working with 50 Cent ’s group, G Unit. Eventually The Game left G Unit to write as a solo artist; however, many saw this as an insult to 50 Cent and his G Unit crew. The Game has no intentions of having a bad relationship with 50 Cent or his former G Unit members. According to The Game “flat out hatin’ – it kills, it’s poison and it’s a disease… it’s killing us. And when I say “us” this would be the first time that I spoke of race because I’m of African American decent and so “us” – it’s killing us. Ignorance, it’s gonna kill us.” A native of the streets of Compton, a city known most for its heavy gang activity, The Game has become an influential figure in West Coast gangster rap. “I’m the last of who I am. I’m a gangster rapper, which is a form of rap that hip hop artists today have taken on that was generated by the godfather of gangster rap – Eazy-E…I’m the last gangster rapper that you’ll probably see on the scale of being a superstar in hip hop, period” says The Game.
Universal Motown recording artist David Banner, Jive recording artist Dolla, Grammy Award winning producers Play-N-Skillz, Wiz Khalifa, and Far East Movement will also perform at U92s Summerjam 2008. In addition, the Car Concepts “Car Wars” sound audio competition will take place with awards for winners in each division. For more information on the Car Concepts “Car Wars” competition log on to

U92s Summerjam 2008 featuring The Game, David Banner, Dolla, Play-N-Skillz, Wiz Khalifa, and Far East Movement will take place on Saturday August 2, 2008 at the USANA Amphitheater in West Valley, Utah. Summerjam 2008 will also play host to the 2008 Car Concepts “Car Wars”. For sponsorship or booth information contact Lutisha Merrill at

NEWS in NYC
FM BACK ON THE SOURCE MAGAZINE BLOG!
check out an article on our trip to NY last week…click HERE for the article…
FM knows the routine. Fly into town on the red-eye, eat, rock the show, mingle with fans, then its back on another Boeing 757 to do it all over again. City after city, the quartet comprised of members Kev-nish, J-Spliff, Prohgress, and DJ Virman consistently deliver performances filled with immaculate timing and natural chemistry. On another hot and humid night in New York City, the four West-Coasters have made their way to yet another K-town tucked quietly in Midtown Manhattan. Waiting patiently for their Kalbi and Mandoo to be served, Far-East is chopping it up with several other prominent Asian-American music figures, soul-singing phenomenon Vudoo Soul and Hot 97’s Miss Info are among FM’s welcoming party.
“We won, we won four- nights in a row at Blazin 98.9’s hot or not contest. Just one more win and we’ll be added to their playlist,” shouts Kev-nish as he receives a very pleasing text-message. As he informs his group mates of the news a sense of self-satisfaction takes over his crew. It has been about six-years since the Far-East Movement stepped on to LA’s underground hip-hop scene and based on their appearance alone, the child-hood friends didn’t always draw applause and accolades by feisty rap fans. FM had to earn their respect the same way as any other aspiring hip-hop group. That meant performing like it was their last show whether there was three or three-thousand people in the crowd.
After filling their stomachs with some Korean-cuisine staples, the boys of FM must excuse themselves to make an early entrance to the night’s venue where they’ll be performing as part of a Mcdonalds sponsored tour. “It seems like every night now, we either have a show or appearance to do. No more hanging-out with homies,” says Prohgress with a bit of despair. As their car arrives and the group is whisked away to nearby club Hiro Ballroom, they must quickly get prepared for only their 2nd performance in the Big Apple. Tonight representatives from Bad Boy Entertainment are in attendance, and the venue is packed to the brim with slanted-eyed clubgoers looking to wind down after a long work week.
It’s about 1:00 am and Miss Info takes over the DJ booth and cuts the music to a mute, after a brief intro she asks the finicky NYC crowd. “New York City, are you ready?”, DJ Virman immediately drops the beat and the west coast explosion unleashes on stage and like skilled surgeons the emcees cut through every snare and bassline Virman throws down. With their signature call and response abilities, FM is able to draw the usually skeptical and self-proclaimed cool New Yorkers into their realm. “ I Love New York, I really do; the crowds here will let you know if they are feeling you or not”, exclaims Far-East rhymesayer J-Spliff after their performance. The FM boys controlled the audience that night, finishing their set off with current radio smash, “Lowriding”. Newly-formed fans mobbed the stage from all angles, trying to get an individual glimpse of the group’s members. There’s no doubt about it, the Far-East Movement has found a new home in the East.
shouts out to the homie MIKEY FRESH!

Michelle is 26 years old.
Diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia in February 2007, Michelle underwent chemotherapy for seven months but
relapsed in May 2008. She now needs to find a bone marrow match to save her life. You could be that person.
What you can do to help Michelle or others like her.
The first step in becoming a hero requires a cheek swab and ten minutes of your time. If you are a match, the transplant can often be done entirely through the blood. We have less than a month to find a match for Michelle. The outcome is simple — someone lives because of your donation. You could be the one to save Michelle, or one of thousands of other people like her.
Your generosity knows no bounds.
We cannot express in words our immense appreciation for everyone that has registered. Team Michelle has been working around the clock organizing bone marrow drives around the country to find Michelle a match. With each person that registers, we are one step closer to saving the life of someone in need. From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU.
