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.
