'Hold My Hand', the new song by rapper Akon and Michael Jackson, is 2008's summer in the making and proof that “the king of pop” is back.
Those are the thoughts of just a few music fans who have contacted Gigwise since the track emerged online yesterday (June 30th).
'Hold My Hand' is understood to be the product of the pair's recent studio collaboration, which is expected to lead to the release of Jackson's new studio album.
Speaking to Gigwise, Boggie, described the song as “beautiful” and said it “brings much comfort”.
“The lyrics reach out to the basic need that is so absent in todays botch job of a society. Michael shows his sincere dedication to making the world a better place.
“That is what a true King is supposed to do. The King of Pop is always in the hearts of those who understand what life, humanity and music are about. Michael brings out the best in anyone he works with, Akon sounds so smooth.”
Ertan was also impressed by the track and how “Michael brings Akon to another level”.
“This song simply ROCKS!!! It's so smooth, so beautiful,” added.
A number of fans who contacted Gigwise also agreed that 'Hold My Hand' proved that Jackson had “the best voice ever”.
