The Game and his older Big Fase had a falling out years ago after the rapper financially cut him off. Now, Fase has made a surprising claim about his brother and Diddy’s relationship.
The 47-year-old said in a now-deleted post on Instagram that the “Hate It Or Love It” rapper’s success was based on the alleged sexual relationship with the music mogul. Fase spewed the rumor after Game appeared on the latest episode of the Drink Champs podcast and provided an update on the non-existent relationship with his big brother.
“Maybe it wasn’t my street credibility,” Fase captioned the image of Diddy hugging Game from behind.
Though Fase’s claim is a clear response to his brother’s remarks, the 42-year-old has said he and Diddy have a close friendship. In 2015, Game confirmed that he bought the New York native a Ferrari in an interview with TMZ.
“I ran with Diddy before I ran with Dre,” he told the outlet. “I was running around with Diddy, but we never like, you know, struck…we never worked on an album or nothing, so I didn’t sign to Diddy, So, when I told Diddy that Dre was trying to sign me, the Diddy was like, ‘go do your thing, men.’ And so…that ended up being my whole career. So I was always grateful to Diddy didn’t like, do no bullsh*t. So, I feel like I owe Diddy something, so I bought him a Ferrari men! It was just a Tuesday.”
During the podcast interview, Game also credited Kanye West for contributing to his success as a rapper.

“It’s crazy that Ye did more for me in the last two weeks than Dre did for me my whole career,” Game said in the teaser.
Many have questioned his statements regarding his career since legendary producer Dr. Dre executive produced his debut album The Documentary, after the west coast rapper signed with Aftermath Entertainment in 2003.
Dre has not publicly responded to Game’s comments.
