Compton, California rapper The Game left L.A. yesterday set to begin his “Red Nation” tour dates in Canada. Upon arrival, he received a big shock.

Toronto Sun reported that customs denied his entry into the country and detained him because of his alleged affiliation with organized crime as an active member of the Bloods street gang.  After being informed that he will be held for two weeks Game turned to twitter to let off some steam.

In a series of tweets he stated, “Customs officials just denied me entry into Canada.” “I’m being detained in Canada for 14 days until they process my inadmissibility then I’ll have a hearing heard by a judge.” “Got to give up my phone & property. This some straight bullshit! Flew all the way from LA to be denied and detained”

The Game, born Jayceon Terrell Taylor, claimed the promoter Substance Entertainment Group assured him that he would be allowed to enter Canada.

At this time it is unclear when The Game will be able to go before a judge.
