Back from Africa!
I had an exciting and inspiring week in Africa and I wanted to share the great news with you. The first part of my trip was in South Africa where I performed at the exhilarating World Cup Kickoff Concert and watched my first ever live soccer match – complete with vuvuzelas - and even visited a lion park. Many thanks to the South Africans for hosting such a thrilling event and giving me such a warm welcome.

Before returning home from Africa, I made my way north to a little village called Mbola.

Mbola is located in the Uyui district in mid-western Tanzania. Like many parts of Africa, it is a beautiful place, but life is difficult there. Thirty one percent of sub-Saharan Africa’s population is chronically undernourished and sixty three percent of the people lack access to basic sanitation facilities.

Summer Tour

Summer Tour

Hey people.  I hope you’re well.  As you know, we’re in the middle of our summer tour, which will be coming soon (or has already come) to a city near you.  This is my biggest and best tour yet, and I’m having a blast.  Thanks to everyone who has come out to support us.  It’s been a great success so far.

Special thanks to our guests India.Arie & Vaughn Anthony.

This Thursday marks a milestone in my career.  I’m headlining at the legendary Madison Square Garden Arena in New York for the first time in my career.  I moved to New York almost a decade ago with dreams of making it big, and it’s a huge thrill to be able to play in such a storied venue in my adopted hometown.

Whether you’re seeing us in New York or anywhere else on the tour, I promise it will be a night to remember.  I look forward to seeing you.

Peace & Love,

John

Michael Jackson
Michael Jackson will always be remembered as one of the greatest performers in the history of popular music. As a child of the 80's, I feel as though his music and his videos have been an inseparable part of my life and that of an entire generation. And the powerful thing about great music is that it will always live on. He was and always will be an icon. My heart goes out to his family, friends and countless fans for their tragic loss.
