Game 's obsession with his past sexual partners has led to yet another feud.

Over the weekend, it was reported that the "Oh I" rapper has a second song on his forthcoming album, Born To Rap , about a woman he's previously had sex with. According to DJ Akademiks, in a yet-to-be-released-song, Game took shots at Joe Budden 's fiancee, Cyn Santana . The DJ, who said he's heard the song in full, admitted that he felt it was his duty to tell Joe, who then addressed Game's alleged "poor taste" bars on his podcast.

"The more I sat and thought about this, the more I said to myself, 'N***a, so what?' What type of loser, face-ass n***a is you, n***a? I don't give two f**ks about what anyone did before I was involved with them," Joe said. "To me, that's more loser sh*t." He added that he felt Game should have reached out to him before mentioning Cyn, especially given that they were on good terms since they put their last feud to bed. "You didn't say it to me. You said it in a song. And you can call me, Game," Joe continued. "You talking about my girl with a girl name. Watch your f**king mouth, man."

Joe's verbal lashing didn't end there, he continued, "Game don't have a single. You have to do this salacious sensationalized bullsh*t when you're calling out people who have clearly moved on and not thinking anything about you," Joe said referencing Game's calling out of Kim Kardashian just last week. "You calling out women that ain't said a word about you. They not proud of you, n***a."

Game then retaliated on his Instagram Story Monday (February 4), writing "@JoeBudden You can't sue nobody for discovering the p**sy before you. #christophercolumbusheadassn*gga #indianswasthere1st​​​​​​​," he wrote. "I turned you into an on air personality n***a! Enjoy retirement p**sy (Quavo voice)."

As previously reported, the "All Eyez" rapper held a listening party for his new album last week. However, one specific track got the most attention due to its graphic lyrics. Game went back into his dating history, revealing intimate details about his past relationship with Kim. "I held Kim Kardashian by the throat, n***a. I made her swallow my kids until she choked, n***a," he rapped on the song, which also included an apology to Kim's husband Kanye West

Game's bars were met with both confusion and anger with many slamming the rapper as a clout chaser (someone who starts beef with a famous person to gain popularity), saying his bars were not only offensive but unnecessary. However, Game couldn't disagree more. He not only defended his controversial lyrics , he also shot back at his critics while on Real 92.3's " Big Boy's Neighborhood " last week.

"Anytime you say anything about anybody, you're chasing clout? I don't get it. These new terms," he said after calling into the radio show. "How does somebody that's sold over 20 million records, that is well established, iconic in his own right, and legendary in music? How do you chase clout?" Big Boy then noted that it's not the first time Game has rapped like this, referencing his history of unapologetic and ruthless bars.

However, Big Boy still asked Game if he sees why people would feel his words were disrespectful. "Yeah," the "Don't Trip" rapper admitted before adding, "but... Somebody always mad or feeling something is disrespectful." Game continued, "And then when people say, 'Oh, she's a mother.' Yeah, my momma's a mother. How did I get here? I'm pretty sure my mom swallowed [...] Let's be real. Everybody listening, like yo, your momma didn't get nasty? How did you get here?"
