The game delays album for dr. dre collaboration

Rapper The Game's latest album release has been pushed back, so he doesn't have to "rush" Dr. Dre to help him complete the record.

The former G-Unit star was preparing to launch The R.E.D. Album on 8 December (09), and had even started promotional duties last month (Oct09).

But he has confirmed his record label Interscope has decided to postpone the release to allow him and collaborator Dr. Dre to fully finish all of the CD's tracks.

On his Twitter.com page, he writes, "Album is Officially pushed back, says Interscope so that I can finish wit (sic) Dre without having to rush him, myself or the album. Think R.E.D."

A new release date has not yet been announced.
