Following the death of Michael Jackson on Thursday 25 June, Jay Kay has posted a short statement at jamiroquai.com. It reads:
"A tragic loss, he was only ten years older than me. I was hugely influenced by "Off The Wall" particularly. He will always be remembered for that level of brilliance which will doubtless never be replicated again. It's very sad news." Jay Kay
Yea, Off the wall is my favorite album too. So Disco Sounding. Rock with you, Workin' Day and Night, Off the Wall. Great Songs. Michael Jackson was an inspiration to many, even Jay Kay. I was looking forward to his new album too. RIP Michael Jackson.
