Reports are circulating that bitterness over a broken promise erupted in violence as The Game and first cousin Robert Kirky Kirkwood fought at the funeral for Kirkwoods sister on July 5.

Kirkwood told tmz.com that The Game had promised to pay half of the $14,000 bill to bury his sister. According to Kirkwood, after making the promise, the Compton MC changed his phone number and deliberately began avoiding him.

After an unspecified time of no contact, The Game then showed up
unexpectedly at the funeral, and Kirkwood became upset as the rapper
spoke at the service about family values and kinship.

Outside he confronted Game about the unpaid debt, and Kirkwood alleges his cousin punched him in the face.

Kirkwood has since filed a police report, and the precinct has confirmed that the altercation was over money. An investigation is ongoing.

The Game is prepped to release his highly anticipated third LP entitled L.A.X. on August 26th , which he has hinted may be his last album.

The Game has not commented on the altercation or alleged debt at press time.
