Posted by ‘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”.
