Phonte & Eric Roberson Honor, Channel Michael Jackson In London @ Soulbounce.com

This past weekend at the Jazz Cafe in UK, music lovers were treated to a two-night concert in celebration of Michael Jackson’s birthday. It’s no secret that the Jazz Cafe stays doing it right, but they upped the ante with SoulBounce faves Eric Roberson and Phonte on the bill for this musical treat. To say that this was a show not to be missed that needs to make its way to the US so that I can see it for myself–and, oh yeah, y’all, too–is an understatement. Thanks to the magic of YouTube, those of us who weren’t in attendance get to see Tay and Erro put their respective thangs down as they tackle “Billie Jean” and “Lady In My Life.” Phonte is especially impressive with his MiJac swagger, outfit and dance moves complete with Moonwalk, and his chant at the end of his performance has me laughing so hard I’ve been reduced to tears. Hit the bounce to hear Eric put a hurting on “Lady” while dong double duty as host for the evening. This looks like it was an incredible musical tribute to the King of Pop.
