After hearing the news of MJ’s untimely passing, The Game got in the studio and put together this tribute song. Link courtesy of DJ Skee. UPDATE: After a few listens it seems as if it’s just The Game, Chris Brown, Polow Da Don & Diddy on the track with samples from the rest. *shrugs… I really don’t care. Oh and I also added the tagless version that The Game posted prior to Skee. Shouts to Buck on the heads up.

first bitches
CDQ??
I never knew Michael Jackson told game and 50 to stop beefing, would make sense cause i think 50 did songs with michael and game might hav aswell
anyone know?
Also usher wasn’t it, mario winnans wasn’t, is this just the sample? Full song probably long as fuck
The singers were sampled in the background I think.
I hear… The Game, Chris Brown, Diddy, Polow Da Don, Boys II Men
chris brown gets no love, so i wont be posting his dumb ass name.
http://twitter.com/comptontrash/status/2346265781 (for those questioning)
Ya’ll postin’ Chris Brown.. Thought you weren’t ever again.
Chris Brown is that dude, We all make mistakes.
But on the real, Shit is real dope.
R.I.P. To The GOAT.
I agree, chris browns Michael Jackson tribute on MTV Awards was nice, but dude made a mistake he is gonna get no love
I hope all the award shows coming out has real good tributes, more rappers need to support, michael jackson put the rap game on, hate it or love it who knew a black dude would sell 250 million off 1 album for a world filled with racism back then
Just saying
The Chris Brown chorus is dope, it’s only really him and The Game on the track.
wow that sounds CORNY AS FUCK
Game and 50 should leave the tributes to the real rappers this is disrespectful the only good thing was the chorus and the sort of prayer talk from puffy.
THIS SONG JUST PISSED ME OFF AS AN MJ FAN
Shake MJ was accused of some fucked up things. Did we not put all that to the side, and realize it was about the MUSIC? So why can we not see life is too short for that kinda bullshit. Especially in this thread of all. Whatever Chris fucked up wit’ is besides the point. He’s an artist and he was obviously heavily influenced by Michael. I find it fitting that he paid his respects. Chris is dope. I respect his music. And that’s all it should be put down to.
Jay Daniels you are the definition of a moron.
Michael Jackson was acquitted of charges and settled too.
Chris Brown was GUILTY.
And IM STILL MAD OVER THIS CORNY TRIBUTE
what the fuck?? Why has the dj droppd his tags all over this?? Is he that desperate for attention that he would use a tribute smh.
“So why can we not see life is too short for that kinda bullshit.”
wtf? like me not posting chris’ name in the post is that detrimental to his well being or anything of that matter.
what the fuck?? Why has the dj droppd his tags all over this?? Is he that desperate for attention that he would use a tribute smh.
^^^ truth why is he dropping his stuipd name on a song thats supposed to show respect
what the fuck?? Why has the dj droppd his tags all over this?? Is he that desperate for attention that he would use a tribute smh.
thats what i thought, how u gonna drop ur gay dj name in there like that… song was meh
rip mj
Game rapped about Mike touching boys before. Bipolar homo.
I still don’t hold grudges against a dude for his mistakes Shake. But each to his own.
“oooooooooo” I said ‘acused’ for a reason. And Mike was dis-credited for many things, not just the child bullshit, i’m saying in general we put aside these things, and see its about the music. Guilty or Not. And why the fuck is you mad as an MJ fan at this song? Nothing wrong with paying respects and Game did his thing. We all have the right to our word whether we speak out in person or through music, you wasn’t the only MJ fan in the world homey.
Jay Daniels and DetoX are bitches.
Some kids need to grow the fuck up. For real.
why didnt you list chris brown on the track
he sings most of it lol
“i’m saying in general we put aside these things, and see its about the music.”
ok… mj was one of the greatest artists/performers of all time. chris brown… has a song about double mint gum. they hold no comparisons.

One of the few comments that could’ve made me laugh out loud at a moment like this
@ JustiN from the dot.
So nearly killing Rihanna was a mistake??? Holy shit what the fuck is wrong with people today Smh…..
its all about the music ooooooooooo stop bitching the game is one of the dopest artist right now and he is the first artist to make a tribute to Michael Jackson and Sean bell and he also made tribute to his best friend. he also made tribute to mlk, eazy e, biggie, and tupac. so please stop bitch and pay respects people. stop complain and i see you point shake about Chris brown but at least he pay his respects to the one who made him to person his is up to the beating of Rhianna
i know i have bad grammar i meant i see your point shake
This was the first tribute track put out by anyone. 50cent record was not a tribute track, it was a regular 50 track with R.I.P. MJ in it. The Game actually took time make a record that talked about MJ the whole time. Props to Game for paying his respects on record, Great track.
DWAYNE-
YOU ARE PROBABLY 14 YEARS OLD DONT TALK TO BE ABOUT GAME AS A RAPPER AND MICHAEL JACKSON. THIS TRACK IS A TERRIBLE TRIBUTE GO LISTEN TO AN MJ ALBUM.
JAY DANIELS-
“ACCUSED” EXACTLY. CHRIS BROWN WAS GUILTY. NEITHER YOU OR DWAYNE UNDERSTAND WHAT A TRIBUTE TO MICHAEL JACKSON MUST REPRESENT. THIS FALLS WAY BELOW IT BOTH OF YOU STOP BEING DICKRIDERS FOR A MOMENT AND PUT IT IN CONTEXT.
50 FAILED
GAME FAILED
____________ THIRD TIMES A CHARM
@Shady Universe – Calm down with the hyperbole. Nobody knows the full story but them. Chris admitted it, plead guilty, he’s gonna do his punishment and she’s not in that situation anymore. That’s it.
I usually side with Shake but this time I gotta go with Jay Daniels. At this time and with him paying respect, it’s pretty corny to leave Chris off the post title but still name him in the post body, but hey, it’s your blog Shake, do as you will.
The song itself is cool. I just know I’ma be tired of the flood of MJ tributes on the way. A “We Are The World 2009″ wouldn’t be too bad tho…
“Never Can Say Goodbye” – The Game
HAHA DWAYNE IS THE BIGGEST MORON ON THE INTERNET. ALL HE COULD FOCUS ON IS HIS IDOL GAME ON THE TRACK THINK ABOUT MJ FOR A MOMENT AND HOW MUCH A DICKRIDER YOU ARE. I KNOW YOU PROBABLY JUST CAME HOME FROM SCHOOL YOUNGIN OR SOMETHING BUT STOP DISRESPECTING MIKE.
smh at you guys bashing every little thing
ooooooooooooo you are fuckin retarded never say goodbye is another tribute to great artist you are just a hater you a dickrider if you keep on respond in the same page every minute dude
R.I.P Michael Jackson..wheater its Wack or dope..Its a Tribute to The King Of Music
This was a real classy joint.
I like it.
RIP MJ.
this song is a perfect tribute song to michael jackson all these artists in this song have been influenced my mj in some way, chris brown looked up to michael jackson but he may have done some shit wrong but so did michael jackson, the game rapping aint got nothing to do with it he’s paying his repect just as everyone else should be, its sucha good song and certainly should be performed at the awards.
Game is quite possibly the corniest motherfucker breathing today. He’s taken his dickriding to the next level with this one. Just when you think he couldn’t any hungrier for some attention, he starts getting his Al Sharpton/media whore on.
this song is dope as fuck fu haterz forget the names listen to the words
@ Cannon
Calm down??? A picture speaks a thousand words dude. She got fucked up regardless who started it and what punishment are you refering to???
@ TheJlr
First of all, the song is pure garbage. Secondly, the song is pure garbage. I bet you if 50 died tomorrow, this clown would run out and do a dedication to him too, accompanied by a video with him falling off a motorbike and dancing in puddles. Fuck you very much, Game.
chris brown is in this because hes probably a big fan of michael jackson?
its crazy how fast they came out with this, its like they planned his death and wrote a song before he died.
50’s track way better…..dont’ agree…don’t give a F***
When are people going to realize it’s pointless to argue with Shake on this site. It’s his site.
You automatically lose…lol
I feel anything MJ Tribute related has to involve either Chris Brown, Usher or Justin, or it’s not really official. These are the most acknowledged cats that were influenced by his style and have already done MJ Tributes while Mike was still living. Just like, I respect BET and I’m excited about the awards, but if they do a MJ performance tribute and don’t include Chris Brown, I’m going to be pretty mad.
The man made one mistake. Forgive him.
Rihanna obviously has. The whole reason the case continued is because the state took over and made sure he got sentenced. If it was all up to Rihanna, everything would have been dropped and they would have told the world everything was fine. SHOOT, they was back together like that next week!
what show is this from http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p_8t-e-F2qs
^^^^that was dope
Shake, homie, haha your on a roll today!
I think this is the best I heard prior to MJ’S death and after his death.
Here is the song that Beatnick & K-Salaam did in a tribute for Michael Jackson back in January here on 2DopeBoyz. I uploaded it for you guys to listen and download.

Good shit , DJ Khalil is a problem
bunch of faggots and haters
The game shows respect where respect is due. This is just an evolution of his namedropping. I really think its out of respect and if i had a name like game I would have done the same thing. Its so amazing that dude went to record his feelings the moment he heard. Waiting on the RED.
I recorded over this as well so to vent, I dont need to hear anything about quality or any as this is just my way to display my feelings towards this tragedy.
http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=3997441241e6b5d419747bd91027d4ddcd5e32eb72260a1a
Haters are fuckers, have respect you meaningless specs. It’s insane that it has taken a death of the greatest living legend of all time for the world to stand up and show how much respect they have.
Michael, you will forever be in my mind. Thank you for everything.

RIP MJ. okay song. games lyrics are kinda wack tbh. good that he paid homage though. khalil did his thing.
@George Clooney: “First of all, the song is pure garbage. Secondly, the song is pure garbage.” ?!? -_- Could you sound more pathetic?
Is it so difficult to point a single OBJECTIVE flaw about this song, that has to do with music and not your hatred against Game?
Hell, can you even just say anything about the song whatsoever? This is not “The Game Hate Club”.
This was ehh, I respect the effort. Id rather hear Kanye and Justin Timberlake do a tribute
Why do so many people including this site support child diddlers??
Wanna know how powerful this was?
I was very critical of Chris Brown until I heard the chorus. Then I realized he’s still the youngest MJ-influenced artist we have, and just like MJ, he’s just a troubled person, but a great entertainer nonetheless (I’m NOT sayin he’s as good as…).
The Game did an amazing job comin up with heartfelt lyrics in a moment like this.
The music (beat) is moving as much as it comforts.
Great tribute. R.I.P MJ
why dont u guys just appreciate the music,leave the site and pray for micheal jackson instead of hatin for no reason
The Game Just doesn’t do it for me. I don’t think there’s one verse I have heard of his that isn’t name dropping. Gimme a Verse from Nas or Talib any day.
And Chris Brown Def. gets no love. Not after never sincerely apologizing and getting a slap on the wrist.
This is a nice joint. Good post. Rest In Peace to Michael Jackson!!! PEace
It’s too sad that people are willing to dwell on the past, just keep it moving. I mean in case you still havent noticed, life is much too short to live for yesterday, just move on with it and leave the past alone, there’s nothing you or anyone else can do to remold it, or undo anything that’s already occured. Be easy everyone.
JT will be the only tribute to MJ I’ll peep unless it’s family related
I really hope Janet does a tribute song to him.
yeaaaahhhhh, no.
I really want to listen, but the fact that Chris Brown is on a song where he is trying to sing about the death of a great, after almost crashing his girlfriend’s face into oblivion, I can’t force myself to it.
Pfst. Whatever, RIP Mike Jack.
Im going to miss him sorely. And I don’t think this is a case of the B.I.G.’s. Dudes already knew MJ was the best, so he is just getting extra recognition for how great he really was.
LOL Shake wins
but back to the song….not really feeling it. I mean its kind of hard when you’re trying to do a tribute song worthy of MJ. as Com would say if i dont like it, i dont like it. that dont mean that i’m hatin’
Im just wondering when theres going to be an actual tribute song that has everyone and their nana on it
Tommy: Chicken wings! Let’s think about this for a sec, Ted, why would somebody put a guarantee on a box? Hmmm, very interesting.
Ted Nelson: Go on, I’m listening.
Tommy: Here’s the way I see it, Ted. Guy puts a fancy guarantee on a box ’cause he wants you to fell all warm and toasty inside.
Ted Nelson: Yeah, makes a man feel good.
Tommy: ‘Course it does. Why shouldn’t it? Ya figure you put that little box under your pillow at night, the Guarantee Fairy might come by and leave a quarter, am I right, Ted?
Ted Nelson: What’s your point?
Tommy: The point is, how do you know the fairy isn’t a crazy glue sniffer? “Build model airplanes!” says the little fairy, well, we’re not buying it. He sneaks into your house once, that’s all it takes. The next thing you know, there’s money missing off your dresser and your daughter’s knocked up, I’ve seen it a hundred times.
Ted Nelson: But why do they put a guarantee on the box?
Tommy: Because they know all they sold ya was a guaranteed piece of shit. That’s all it is, isn’t it? Hey, if you want me to take a dump in a box and mark it guaranteed, I will. I’ve got spare time. But for now, for your customer’s sake, for your daughter’s sake, ya might wanna think about buying a quality product from me.
Ted Nelson: Okay, I’ll buy from you.
Tommy: Well, that’s… What?
Maybe a We Are The World Reunion with all the ones that are alive & can still sing?

Me and Marshall ain’t start shit they listen to our shit
They talk shit about us but that shit is foul when
I’m tryna feed my son and drop multi-platinum albums
Make my mother proud that her son made it out
But its hard when they hate us and think ‘Em a racist
They say shit but fuck them,
Shady one of the greatest like Biggie n’ Pac was
We started throwin cinthi and decided to chase ‘em
Me, him and 50 racin’ this rap shit is basic I followed that Jay shit
Thinkin what I wanna say, step in the booth in one take and
How could I not sell a million when I’m rappin’ on Dre hits
Then spit that classical LA, NWA shit
The media is bullshit now we can’t even say bitch
THEY ACCUSIN OF MICHEAL TUCHIN KIDA IN WRONG PLACES
AT FIRST THEY EMBRACED HIM, HAD A COUPLE OF FACE LIFTS
NOW PEOPLE WANA PLACE HIM WITH MURDERES AND RAPISTS
They comin’ I can taste this swear to God I ain’t racin’
Put the clip in and wast ‘em before I go out on that fake shit
I’m so sick and tired this black shit this white shit
So I sit here and write shit, Em they ain’t gon’ like this
FOR ALL THOSE WHO SAID GAME HATED ON MJ ALL FALSE.
AND MORE IMPORTANTLY ENJOY THE SONG 4 ITS MEANING. RIP MJ
this track is off da hook, really dope !!!

What the hell is wrong with yall?!?! This is not about who’s the best rapper ,who did what to who, etc. this is about a wounderful terrific man that just died. Micheal justed wanted peace and happieness among everybody and if he read all these blogs on this website, he would be very dissapointed in all of yall. So I think ever single one of yall should think about who the song is about, not who’s singing it.
Love You MJ, You maybe gone, but never forgotten!!!!XOXOXO
Considerate…
Rest In Peace Michael Jackson
We all love you, and you know it
Michael, till this day, i still cannot accept the fact that you’re gone. How can this be true. how can the most gracious man on earth is taken away from us?
Like what MANY people said. God saw michael suffering here on earth, that’s why God said ” Son, you don’t deserve this, time for you to come home. You did what i told you to do, your journey is done. you left a mark on the world, you left a legacy that no one can match up to, you set the bar so high that no one can ever deny that you are the WORLD’S GREATEST.”
MICHAEL JOSEPH JACKSON, you indeed was born a star, died a star an will FOREVER shine like a star.
Do remember we all love you. and will love you until the end of time.
I’ll see you in heaven my beloved. the time will come soon. Im begging jesus to take me now….
i love all therse wonderful singers/rappers and for them to do a great song like this to the person who i look up 2 has just lifted my spirts, michael was wonderful and he will be dearly missed…. you will always be in my heart michael.
r.i.p…..I think that chris brown will be the next michael jackson but not as big as what michael was..gd luck chris=]

I cry everytime i watch this. Rap a like a little but now I have a whole new repect. The Game I’m sure is proud. He should be..
Chris Brown became famous like 2-3 years/months after MJ.
I forgot if it was months or years thats why it has the /.
.first off i would like to pay my respect to MJ.R.I.P you will be missed and always in our hearts…you are truly blessed.
..anyway i love the song i thought it was very touching and obviously the game felt inspired and anybody that don’t like it stop listening to it.
and as for chris brown goes people make mistakes..stuff happens.ALL OF YALL ARE JUDGING BUT DONT KNOW THE WHOLE STORY.
.people wanna talk and everbody wants to listen but some how the truth always comes up missing.
stop passing judgement God is the only one that knows the story along with Chris && Rihanna…and he’s the only one that is passing judgement.he cant learn from nothing so STFU!!!
Not everyone believes in God. Just throwing that out there.
this is a very good song me an my brothers always listen to this when we always think about mj. R.I.P M.J we love you.keep on doin it big chris brown we love you always.
