The Game Shares First Photo of New Baby Boy and Reveals His Name

The Game has shared the first glimpse of his new baby son.

The rapper, 45, posted a photo of the baby on Instagram on Friday, Dec. 6, revealing that the child’s name is Blaze Taylor.

“Beautiful baby boy overload,” he captioned the post, adding, “I love you son.”

The Game — whose real name is Jayceon Terrell Taylor — also included a photo of himself at around the same age as his son is now.

Also on Friday, Shaniece Hairston, who is the daughter of reality star Evelyn Lozada, posted the same photo of Blaze on her Instagram Stories, seemingly confirming that she is Blaze’s mother.

The 31-year-old yoga instructor and influencer had previously posted a “mommy photo dump” on social media on Nov. 4, featuring photos of herself pushing a stroller, but did not reveal the identity of the baby’s father at the time.

Lozada, 48, provided further confirmation in a Dec. 6 Instagram post of her own, in which she reshared The Game’s initial post of baby Blaze.

“This little blue-eyed angel made me a grandma, and I’m forever grateful! 🥹❤️,” The Basketball Wives star wrote in the post’s caption, adding, “You’ve brought so much joy into my life that words can’t even explain. I love you more than anything, Blaze Taylor! 🍼✨ #GrandmaLove #ForeverGrateful #BlazeTaylor.”

Hairston first revealed she was pregnant in June via Instagram. The post featured a photo of herself topless on a beach while cradling her baby bump.

“Another trip around the sun and in my purest birthday suit yet 🥹🤍,” she wrote at the time.

Blaze is the first child for Hairston and the fourth for The Game, who is also dad to Harlem, 21, King, 17, and California (“Cali”), 14.

The performer revealed that he was expecting another baby in August during an episode of the Tacos & Shawarma podcast — though he did not share Hairston’s identity at the time.

“I’m expecting one child,” he told host Elle LaMont, before reflecting on what it felt like to welcome a new baby at his age.

“I think about it in terms of like … so when my new child is 21, I’ll be 65, right? That seems kinda old until you start thinking about who’s 65 now,” he said, citing stars including Mariah Carey and Jay-Z. “They gotta be almost, like, their next big birthday is probably 60. They’re still out here looking young and cool, so it ain’t that bad.”

The California native also shared that he believed parenting this time around would feel different from when he was younger and “hard-headed in the streets.”

“I don’t know how I even made it to this point in my life doing the things that I was doing,” he explained, before adding, “But I made it. My kids are all fine, smart, straight-A students and good. So it’ll just be interesting to parent at this age.”
