rapper The Game is clearing the air about his relationship with Basketball Wives star Evelyn Lozada and his 32-year-old daughter, Shaniece Hairston.
“Have you ever had sex with my mother?” Hairston asked The Game, 46, on Wednesday, Jan. 21, episode of the mother-daughter duo’s “Drop the Lo” podcast, as she asked the rapper to clear up viral rumors about himself. “And we had a threesome?”
The Game, which shares 2-year-old son Blaze Taylor with Hairstonquickly shut down the speculation. (Shaniece is Lozada’s daughter with ex Jamal Hairston.)
“This is absurd,” said The Game. “I’m close to having a prince (move in) and I left. I mean, I’ll let you know, Evelyn is a 50-year-old grandmother, she’s absolutely beautiful … but I’ve never had sex with her. We don’t even give off that kind of energy or that kind of vibes.”
Evelyn Lozada has found herself on a parenting team with ex Carl Crawford. “I think sometimes people don’t understand my relationship with him,” Lozada, 48, shared exclusively with Us Weekly while promoting Season 11 of Basketball Wives . “Maybe they think there’s something going on, but generally we’re good friends… It’s really about (…)
According to The Game (real name Jayceon Terrell Taylor), it would be “fucking disgusting” to sleep with Shaniece and her mom.
“We’re, like, a little family of idiot gangsters,” he said. “That’s not our vibe, man. It’s just not our vibe.”
As for Lozada, 50, he thought the rumor of the trio it was a joke
“I thought it was so funny that nobody addressed anything,” Lozada said. “No one said anything because I feel like when someone walks into you and they don’t even know who the hell you are, they’ve never met you… someone not responding to you is, like, the ultimate answer.”
The Game, meanwhile, acknowledged that some of the rumors about the trio are “so off the wall” incorrect.
“Some of this shit is so off the wall, like, you literally have to have your tea and go about your day because… it doesn’t need to be addressed,” The Game said. “It’s so disturbing that someone would even pick this up and actually literally try to throw it into a public forum or a public space.”
Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards is raising eyebrows with his fatherhood drama, but the NBA has seen this movie before. Edwards — who has been dating Shannon Jackson since 2020 and shares a daughter with her — filed a paternity suit against influencer Ayesha Howard in September 2023.

The Game also shut down viral speculation that Shaniece sat on his lap when she was 12 while referring to the musician as an uncle-type figure.
“The thing is, my own nieces don’t sit on my (lap),” The Game said. “I’m not screwing Santa, (and) I’m not inappropriate with kids, like, even with my own nieces. As much as I love them, I love them, I hug them, and if they’re 2 or 3, you pick up little kids (and) … hug them. As they get older, you have to respect your uncle.”
As part of respecting boundaries, The Game stressed that he never demonstrated “those vibes” of hugging or sitting on his lap with his nieces, nephews or friends’ children as they got older.
“(When) they’re little, they call you ‘Uncle Game,’ you throw them (in the air), you love them,” he said. “Anyone who knows me knows that about me, and so when people make up these rumors, I think it’s absurd.”
The Game and Shaniece both denied even meeting when he was a minor.
