Better on the Other Side” is a tribute song from The Game dedicated to Michael Jackson. It features vocals from The Game, Chris Brown, Diddy, Polow da Don, Mario Winans, Usher, and Boyz II Men.

Following the death of Michael Jackson, Better on the Other Side debuted on June 26th 2009, receiving airplay on Los Angeles radio station Power 106. The collaborative DJ Khalil and DJ Skee track also appeared on DJ Skee’s satellite radio show, “Skeetox”. The song was posted by Diddy.

On the day following Michael Jackson’s death, the song was posted for free on Diddy’s and The Game’s respective Twitter accounts. During the announcement that Michael Jackson passed, The Game, DJ Khalil, and DJ Skee were in a remote recording studio. After hearing about Jackson’s death, The Game phoned Chris Brown, Diddy, Polow da Don, Mario Winans and Boyz II Men in order to help him create a song dedicated to Michael Jackson.

The piano-accompanied soundscape (performed by Mario Winans) starts off with Diddy testifying about Jackson’s influence, he says:

I believed I could do anything,

he continues,

You made the world dance,
You made the music come to life.

Then a thunderous bass drops in, led by Chris Brown’s vocals on the chorus:

This the type of song that make the angels cry,
I look up in the sky and i wonder why?
Why you had to go, go
I know its better on the other side,
You were chosen from the start
Never gon’ let you go,
It’s from the heart, whoo.

At the end, Nathan Morris of Boyz II Men sings the last chorus:

This the kind of song that make the angels cry,
look up in the sky and ask God, why o why why
Do we live and let die
This the kind of song that make the angels cry,
look up in the sky and ask God, why o why why
Do we live and let, live and let die.

A video was shot on the June 27th. They also took a footage of The Game and Chris Brown working together in the studio during making the tribute.
