The Game has cast doubt over his plans to retire from the rap game - insisting he would consider making a fourth album if he could get former mentor Dr Dre on board.

In recent months the dreams hit-maker has repeatedly said he would quit his music career after the release of his new album Lax.

Just last week The Game - real name Jayceon Taylor - admitted he's had enough of life on the road and wants to dedicate more time to family matters.

But now the rapper appears to be changing his mind about hanging up the mic - if he could bring together several hip-hop heavyweights from his native Compton, California, for the record.

He says: "If I do come back with another album it'll be called The Doc.

"It'll have 10 songs on it. It won't have titles, it'll just be Chapter One through 10.

"The only way that I'll do The Doc or come back to do that album is if I could get (former NWA rapper) Ren, King Tee, (Dr) Dre and (Ice) Cube, because I don't want any features except people who have been through Compton and really made their mark.

"If I can make The Diary of Compton happen, and can get Dre to executive produce that, then you'll see a fourth album." - Wenn
