If you're slacking on your pimpin', turn it up with Jermaine Dupri's new 4 Lanes iPhone game, which was inspired by the "switching four lanes" lyric from his and Jay Z's 1998 single "Money Ain't a Thang." The game's racing concept is similar to the song's music video.

The 42-year-old rapper and producer's leap into mobile gaming isn't as strange as you might think. Dupri, a lifetime gamer, has had his hand in the gaming industry since 2000, when he produced a tune for Ludacris that became the theme song for the Madden franchise.

"In my game, you have to collect as much money as you can and stay away from police cars," Dupri told Mashable. "It's not an easy game. It's not a game you just get on and kill it."

Dupri compares 4 Lanes to Subway Surfers, another game that "you don't just conquer, you keep getting pulled in to beat your high score or your friends' high scores."

Kim Kardashian's mobile game from 2014 appears to have opened the door for more celebrities like Dupri to create mobile games. Britney Spears, Katy Perry as well as Kardashian's sisters Kendall and Kylie Jenner all have games in development following the explosive commercial success of Kim Kardashian: Hollywood.

"This is just the beginning of more people doing games like this," Dupri said.

Jermaine Dupri attends the 27th Rhythm And Soul Awards in Los Angeles on June 14, 2014.

Dupri has been promoting 4 Lanes on Facebook and Twitter by challenging his followers to beat his score. He has also been touting the game at his residency in Las Vegas, where his longtime friend Mariah Carey just launched her residency (watch video, below).

"I’ve had a residency at the Wynn for three years," said Dupri, who also spearheads a social network called Global14. "Vegas needs to be younger, and it’s getting much, much younger than it’s ever been. Seeing her do it, Snoop Dogg has residency, Chris Brown has now taken a small residency, it keeps the music alive. It ensures their music never goes away."
