Tight security kept fans, reporters and even aircraft well away from the Forest Lawn cemetery in the Los Angeles suburb of Glendale, where Jackson will lie in the stellar company of such Hollywood icons as Walt Disney and Humphrey Bogart. Jackson's family arrived at the cemetery more than an hour late, driven in a procession of nearly 30 limousines and cars that passed a small crowd of fans and onlookers.

Many of us might wonder what sort of position P. Diddy has commenting on the state of clubs and the forgotten art of playing the full version of a record. This is a man who's own Production work with mega-stars such Notorious BIG redefined East Coast Hip Hop. But for those in the know P. Diddy is no stranger to club land. Hell himself describes P. Diddy as a man who 'knows about techno music� When he was a kid he was going to the Sound Factory to see Junior Vasquez.' In the higher-echelons of Dance Music history this was a very important time for US "Rave" culture, much like the European Halcyon Rave days of the early 90's. The most striking difference being that, as with all great New York clubs from the Paradise Garage to Sound Factory, these parties went on for days and so did the records. But more recently P. Diddy has been ubiquitous in club culture, from Partying with Hell and Claude Von Stroke in Miami and tearing it up with Felix Da Housecat in Ibiza So P. Diddy has a privileged position, in that he was there then when the art of playing the long version was at its peak and he is here now, a time where blog culture and Rock Star have-a-go DJ's line-up on mass to play low bit-rate MP3s. - more on this story
"Oh Yeah," produced by the Stereotypes (Ne-Yo, Mary J. Blige, Natasha Bedingfield), is crisscrossing airwaves and internet portals all over the globe. It's a bouncy, carefree, irresistible anthem; the song's hook says it all: "You don't even know why you're turning up your radio/Bobbing your head in your car 'cause you feel me though/Don't be mad 'cause I've got you singing 'Oh yeah, oh yeah!'" Check also for a special version that features an intro from hip-hop legend Snoop Dogg. Find the song's video at this link: www.jaickomusic.com Beyond "Oh Yeah," there's no ebb, no lull among the offerings on Can I. The titular track is a standout, cresting with emotion in detailing Jaicko's long and circuitous path to international notoriety. Yes he's only 18, but he began performing at age nine, and entered a recording booth a year later. Along the way, an independent album Jaicko �then a rapper� cut in his native Barbados sold 6,000 copies, a massive accomplishment considering the island's total population is less than that of Pittsburgh. From an insular audience apart from the rest of the world to sharing the stage with Sean Kingston on an upcoming North American tour�true leaps and bounds.
