Game is shouting his album titled The R.E.D Album and Dr Dre’s Detox album.

The R.E.D Album at the time of this song was his upcoming studio album that was released on August 19th, 2011.

Detox was at the time Dr Dre’s upcoming studio album set to also release in August, 2011 but unfortunately Dre scrapped the album to instead work and release his 2015 Compton album.

Both albums were supposed to drop in August hence the “Back to the Back” part of the line but only one ended up being released in August, 2011.

One of Hip-Hop’s most famous lines from 2Pac’s Hail Mary, which explains the line above. This could also be a 50 diss since 50 had a remix to Hail Mary (with Eminem & Busta), and 50 has a song called “Don’t Push Me”. But wasn’t the 50 and Game beef long over?

Infinite was first released in May of ‘95 when Eminem was 22.
Eminem says he came in the rap game at 25 because it is when he put out “The Slim Shady EP” and linked up with Dr. Dre after the 1997 Rap Olympics. He put out “The Slim Shady LP” in Feb. 1999 around age 26. Then he put out “The Marshall Mathers LP” in May 2000 at age 27. That record went on to go Diamond in the U.S. alone and went on to sell over 20 million worldwide. He easily could have quit rapping and lived off the money he had already made at 29 and never even put out “The Eminem Show” in May 2002 at the age of 29.

So Thank You Marshall for not quitting and depriving us of 12 years of amazing music. The world would have missed some of his greatest tracks.
