== Background ==
On June 25, 2009, American recording artist, Michael Jackson, died from cardiac arrest at the age of 50,〔 〕 later revealed to be from a drug intoxication of the anesthetic drug Propofol (also known as "Diprivan"). Jackson was friends with musicians Chris Brown, Diddy, Boyz II Men and The Game.〔 Aside from being friends with some of the musicians involved on the song, others involved had also respected and admired Jackson. According to The Game, prior to Jackson's death Jackson, Diddy and Eminem had tried to end the feuding and tension between rapper 50 Cent and The Game in 2005.〔 The Game stated that in 2005, Jackson called him and offered to help end the feud, remembering "I was on tour in Canada, sitting in my room, cutting my hair () I was messing my hair up. Then my road manager knocks on my door. Boom, boom, boom. He told me, I got MJ on the phone. I ran and snatched up the phone."〔
The Game said Jackson started the conversation by talking about music and complimenting him on his records like "Hate It or Love It" and "How We Do" and, "() said, 'I don't know how you're gonna feel about this, but I want to ask you something. I don't want you to judge me, but I don't really know everything that's going on between you and 50 (). But I want to be the middleman behind you putting this situation to bed."〔 Jackson had wanted the two to meet, with him serving as a mediator, though according to Game, "It never manifested."
