The Game posted the album cover for The Documentary 2 on Instagram today along with note of appreciation for his supporters. The rapper's new album nods to the legacy of his multi-platinum 2005 debut, The Documentary, but he thinks the second installment will be superior. "This album is better than my 1st for more than a few reasons," he notes. "But you don't have to take my word for it because you will see for yourself when it drops SEPTEMBER 25TH 2015!" Game also aligns himself with other MCs representing Compton to the world, notably Kendrick Lamar and Dr. Dre. Read his whole Instagram post below.

To my true fans: it's been really dope to have you ridin' with me the last 10 years from the 1st Documentary til now.... I appreciate your loyalty & the patience you have displayed while waiting for me to finish #TheDocumentary2 & I am proud to give you my album cover shot by legend photographer & director @JonathanMannion (who also shot my 1st album cover) & graphic designer @CeoSelfmade for collaborating with Jonathan to bring such a classic image of me on the bridge in my hood....Cedar Block Piru in westside Compton, California... Everything about the photo shoot made me feel the exact same way I did when we were there 10 years ago & trust me when I say.... This album is better than my 1st for more than a few reasons.... But you don't have to take my word for it because you will see for yourself when it drops SEPTEMBER 25TH 2015 !!!! After Kendrick dropped his album, then Dr. Dre dropped #Compton then the movie doing 100 million after just 2 weeks..... This album will add to my cities continuous legacy !!!! I'm proud to be from #COMPTON & I wish #EazyE was alive to see us flourish yet again...... We on !!! This album cover represents the struggle to stay alive in a city where CRIPS & BLOODS have been at war since 1972 & it's because of you "THE FANS" I will again get to give you my documented accounts of life here in Los Angeles .... SEPTEMBER 25TH history will be made again #TheDocumentary2
