"Otherside of America" is a protest song[2][3][4] by American rapper Meek Mill. The song tackles racial inequality and racism in the United States. It was released on June 5, 2020, amid the Black Lives Matter and George Floyd protests against police brutality in the United States, in the wake of the murder of George Floyd. In the intro, the song contains dialogue from President Donald Trump's 2016 comments about black Americans in an effort to sway the black vote his way.
