Ghostface and Dwele pay tribute to Michael Jackson
Posted by Miss Info under concerts , good for hip hop , good for me , life beyond rap , old music , videos[9] Comments
(thanks to Cordell to sending this to me…Dwele recomposes Human Nature dolo…so cool to watch! And the pose at the end, lol!)
(Ok…you can’t see much, but you can hear Ghostface’s enthusiasm as he sings along to his favorite Michael Jackson classics while onstage in Melbourne Australia, just one day after MJ’s death. Thanks to Modiika. Here’s another clip from Ghost’s Melbourne show)
While artists all over the world have been creating tributes, Joe Jackson the patriarch of the MJ clan appeared on the BET Awards red carpet and promoted his new project on CNN….after the jump…
(sigh….spotted on popculturefix)

you posted the Jo Jackson thing after I already commented….first off…he didn’t say I’ve lost my son or one of my very own, he says “We’ve lost the biggest star in the world”….then he has his publicist read a statement about how ’sad’ he is…what on earth??????????
He doesn’t seem grief stricken at all….and pluggin his record company….I’m so through.

I really love Dwele and this is a great tribute. There is this artist by the name of K’Jon that reminds me so much of Dwele. He has this song called On The Ocean that is crazy…y’all should check him out @ http://www.myspace.com/whoiskjon!

i love dwele, and k’jon is pretty decent. oh my gosh. this dwele is killing me right now. my heart is feeling all kinds of things from this and i’m typing with this big goofy smile n my face while typing. this is the best thing to listen to while i’m waiting to go to the bank. thanks info!!!! thanks dwele. thanks to the dude who sent info this!!!! better than reading a book :p. on and to #1. that sucks that you missed ghostface this year and empd, dela, common etc last year. dela came over here after their show in aussie last year and they were wicked. never miss a dela concert if you have to. sell your soul, sneak in, do whatever you can because it’ll be worth it. such great dudes. always a good show. oh and i ranted about the douche in the new post. gosh.

Dwele tribute is genius..
Jo Jackson sounded terribly wrong.. that gives us another insight of the craziness Michael had to deal with as a child growing up..
May he be at peace now
