The Game, Chris Brown, Diddy Record Michael Jackson Tribute Song

Posted Thu Jul 2, 2009 1:01pm PDT by Billy Johnson, Jr. in Hip-Hop Media Training

The Game, Chris Brown, Diddy, Boyz II Men, and Polow Da Don teamed up to record a tribute to Michael Jackson, "Better On The Other Side."

The Game provides the bulk of the lyrics, sharing personal experiences as a kid who grew listening to Michael's music. Chris Brown and Wayna Morris from Boyz II Men also offer lead vocals.

They recorded this song immediately and released it Friday, June 26, the day following Michael's passing to cardiac arrest. It's a good track. You can feel the sincerity in each of the artists' vocals.

Hot track, still angry with chris though i think he should have waited to make music for a while to let fans start to relike him a bit other than that and the fact that the video is really wierd i mean wtf is the game sittin in the tu with his pants ON who really does that and y did he have to be in the tub. SERIOIUSly. other than that i like the song its got a good meanining and a hot beat.

Hey...This is a beautiful Tirbute to a beautiful human being...He gave all he was given to give...He has finished his course........God is awsome, and Michael Jackson is evidence of this truth........I am a 48 years young woman and I loved him almost all of my life...His death feels like a personal lost to me....my children love MJ...his legacy will remain! Final thought: LET US ALL LOVE HIS CREATOR WITH AS MUCH, AND MORE FERVOR.....GOD BLESS......REST NOW MICHAEL!!!!!
