After a downright epic wait, it’s looking like Game fans will finally get their hands on a new album before the summer’s out. While the R.E.D. Album may be back on track for release, those two-plus years of delays and label rigamarole have left the West Coast repper understandably disillusioned with the industry—a fact that’s crystal clear from new single Pot of Gold. A far cry from last week’s b*tches/money-centric Bottles & Rockin’ J’s, this joint finds Game wondering whether he would have been better off if he had never attempted to “follow the rainbow” to fame and fortune. Over The Futuristics’ pop rock-infused production, Game gets a few things off his chest, reminding disappointed fans as well as haters that he’s only human, and revealing his tentative plans for the future: “Give Interscope two more albums, then I’m done for good.” Topped off with Chris Brown‘s plaintive hook vocals, this moody selection may be a bitter pill to swallow, but fans will undoubtedly appreciate its realness. According to Interscope, R.E.D. Album is set to arrive on store shelves in late August—keep your fingers crossed!

This song first appeared on the Top Hip Hop / R&B Chart on July 4, 2011

Game, congrats. You have a radio-ready record that should make that August date stick. If this doesn't work, though, forget about it.

Decent, but again, not strong enough for Game to push is album; he needs a solo-single with an original WestCoast sound, like back in '06, his last effords were just below average.

I don't think this is the one, it's got a great message, but it's not catchy enough. I can see it on Top 40 stations though, so it's possible it could be a hit a la "Written In The Stars" by Tinie Tempah.

Finally, a track from Game that is actually good! I've waited for this for a long time and now I realise that good things come to those who wait.

this is the song that put me back on to Game after he continually released bad track after bad track in 2010. This is the new (except for its quite old) My Life, with a hook that has someone that can actually sing. EPIC

This is the Game that everybody fell in love with. CB delivers a solid hook that should be all over the radio . This reminds me of a Alex Da Kid track

There is something abt Chris brown being in this song that would add that extra uniqueness to the R.E.D album.

Im kind of iffy on the hook. Game is alright on this kind of like a more uptempo version of "My Life". The beat is just okay too. This is just a average track.

I zoned out and thought I was listening to the radio. But the lyrics were heartfelt. Overall the track sound good with the Chris B hook, so hey, the Game is back...

too early for THE single. but this is exactly the direction I would love R.E.D to sound. not in terms of instrumental, but Game raps best when it's personal to him.

At least it's better than the last single, and at least Chris Brown doesn't try to rap (again). This is the most relevant track from Game that I think more people will be able to relate to rather than: get money get b!tches stay hood type of stuff.

I liked the track overall. Big ups to the production from The Futuristics (the guitar was nicely worked in). Chris Brown's hook was pretty nice and the Game appears to be making a come back compared to his previous tracks.

Wow Game took a whole new direction with this song. He sounds the same but the beat is totally something ive never heard Game try to do. Its not all good but i do like it and its radio friendly. I think we might have game back. Its a banger in my opinion.

I liked the chris brown hook and the production was solid. The Game did a good job on this, though im of the opinion that other rappers probably could of done a better job

Game is one of the Greatest artist of this generation that paints pictures in his music of every aspect of his life wether is good or bad or just thought Provocking. Most def a voice that shouldn't be slept on.

Strong, but not quite for the radio. I agree with the guy about "Written in the Stars." That's where I see it.
