This was not an exceptionally big hit, but it was definitely a phenomenal piece of R&B! The third single from Erykah's phenomenal debut album, "Otherside Of The Game" is her 1997 tune about a woman involved with a guy doing some illegal business to support her and a kid. It's really interesting, because it's a more critical look at all the hustling and dealing that gets glorified in hip-hop music. And, as she used to do back then, Erykah lays down some killer vocals. This might be my favorite single from her. US Hot 100: - US R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay: #14 ![](http://image.listen.com/img/170x170/4/4/5/4/384544_170x170.jpg)

I love this song. I also loved the video where she's with her man in the house and she's pregnant and he is getting ready to go out and roll. I loved the camera work.

This is definitely one of my favorites from her. The whole album is one of my favorite R&B albums of the 90s.
