...honouring the teacher, radio 2012 style...

we are taking another year to reflect on the works of our teacher (and ancestor) michael jackson.  even though we have come to terms with his transition it still has been hard for us during different points of the year.  however, we do our best to honour him as much as we can to the best of our abilities; and we continuously marvel at how much we learn something new every day when it comes to him. 

we definitely appreciate your support over the years... especially on that fateful day of michael's transition, where we did 'guess who's coming to radio??!!' in between many tears.  this year we have the opportunity to present FOUR HOURS of the teacher to you...!  that is not an easy feat, as he has such a wealth of material.  we've spent time digging through our collection (which never ceases to grow), and we can only hope you'll be learning something as much as we have, and continue to. 

throughout the evening we'll present lessons from the teacher (of course!  so pay attention dear students); we will share words from others who appreciate his artistry.  there will also be remixes and interpretations (which span genres) of his art. 

the main goal of what we do here is to bring recognition to the teachings which were the backbone to his art, be it implicit or explicit.  through that, we add a little joy through music as well. 

“If you enter this world knowing you are loved and you leave this world knowing the same, then everything that happens in between can be dealt with.”- the teacher
