See the full story · 1 sourcesThe Game just set a very high bar for sweet 16 gifts ... surprising his daughter Cali with a brand-new Maybach at her birthday party in Beverly Hills Saturday night.
We got video of the rapper walking Cali outside with a blindfold over her eyes as party guests watched the big reveal go down. Once the blindfold came off, Cali got behind the wheel of her new $300K car ... and proudly posed with the keys in hand.
It\u2019s a major moment for Game and Cali, who have long appeared to share a close father-daughter bond. The rapper shares Cali -- born Cali Lynn Dream Taylor -- with his ex-fianc\u00e9e, Tiffney Cambridge. Though the pair split, they\u2019ve publicly co-parented, with Game previously praising Tiffney as an \u201camazing parent.\u201d
He\u2019s also made no secret of being fiercely protective of Cali. When social-media users criticized an outfit she wore to a party years ago, Game publicly defended her and said he and Tiffney had discussed and approved the look together.
And while Cali was the star of Saturday night\u2019s celebration, Game\u2019s got plenty happening professionally too. We also caught up with him to talk about his new album, \u201cThe Documentary III,\u201d including its huge features from Ye and Drake.
The Drake collaboration, \u201cNo Brakes,\u201d has fueled online speculation that Game is taking shots at Kendrick Lamar ... so we asked him directly whether he wanted to clear up the diss rumors.
Either way, Cali\u2019s 16th birthday had a much more obvious message: Dad went all out.
