    Kanye West and The Game have teamed up for a provocative new track titled “Tina,” centered around Tina Knowles, the mother of Beyoncé. The collaboration has sparked significant attention due to its unusual subject matter and the artists’ promotional tactics.

    The promotional campaign began with Kanye West sharing a screenshot on Instagram, purportedly showing The Game sending a banana emoji to Tina Knowles via direct message. This was followed by a video of Knowles’ appearance on The Jennifer Hudson Show, captioned by West as “Game finna slide.” These posts led to widespread confusion and discussion among fans.

    The track “Tina” samples audio from Knowles’ “Spirit Tunnel” walk on The Jennifer Hudson Show and incorporates elements of Tina Turner’s classic hit “What’s Love Got to Do with It.” In the song, The Game raps: “I see my Destiny’s Child / DMing was stressing me out / Nervous, my stomach in knots / So I took a couple of shots.” The accompanying music video features both artists wearing balaclavas and high-visibility jackets, delivering their verses in a stylized setting.

    At the conclusion of the video, an unidentified individual in a balaclava comments on the rapid progression from an Instagram post to a song and music video, hinting that this project could serve as the foundation for The Game’s upcoming album, The Documentary 3. However, the song is not yet available on streaming platforms, and it’s unclear whether it will be included on the album, especially given potential challenges in clearing the samples used.

    As of now, neither Beyoncé nor Tina Knowles have publicly responded to the song or the promotional antics surrounding it. You can listen to the snippet below:
