The Game has taken aim at critics of his parenting after a TikTok his daughter made starring the West Coast rapper and two of her siblings went viral.
On Monday (June 19), Hollywood Unlocked reposted a video the rapper’s daughter, Cali Dream Taylor, made showing her dancing to Sexyy Red and Tay Keith’s “Pound Town.” The clip shows the 12-year-old lip-syncing to the song’s vulgar lyrics while The Game and her two brothers wave their hands in the air and then flee the scene.
After a number of people criticized The Game’s parenting, he hopped in the comments section to clap back at his detractors.
“She my kid. 1/2 y’all kids got snot frozen on the outside of they nose but you tryna weigh in on the parenthood of mine… my kid in private school wearing uniforms makin straight A’s.. we good over here,” he wrote.

Some took issue with the TikTok post while others backed The Game and thought it was a heartwarming moment for family bonding.
“That’s such a weird TikTok to do with your dad lol,” one person wrote, while another chimed in: “I’m surprised he even approved of this the way he be cutting up!”
The Game has always had Cali’s back, and just earlier this month let her know how proud he is of her in a post on Instagram. “California.. Daddy is more than proud of you for excelling in all paths chosen for you. You make my heart smile…. You are always my way back to the light,” he wrote in awe.
It’s not the first time Game has had his parenting critiqued. He defended his daughter’s outfit in December when she attended Diddy’s twins’ birthday party last year.
“I am her father & her protector and she is & will always be an amazing young woman. I wish everyone happy holidays & thanks for your opinions on a child that belongs to US but we GOT THIS.”
