Throughout the album, The Game tackles speculation about a possible feud with Kendrick Lamar.

The new album also touches on various other topics, including reactions to some of Kanye West’s controversial remarks.
The Documentary III features an impressive lineup of guest artists, including Drake, Snoop Dogg, Kanye West, PartyNextDoor, E-40, YG, Larry June, Black Thought, Lefty Gunplay, and Leon Thomas, among others. This diverse roster showcases The Game's continued relevance and influence within hip-hop.
