Michael Jackson is close to finishing his charity single for the victims of Hurricane Katrina, according to his spokeswoman Raymone Bain. As previously reported, Jackson is now based in Bahrain and is working with twelve other participating artists via global satellite and phone connections. Is it just me, or does that description make him sound like the villain in a Bond movie?
Anyway, Bain announced that "all that remains is for two or three artists to do their tracks. Michael will then add his vocals. He is now on the fast track and we're happy with the progress." The artists reportedly involved with the project include James Brown, Snoop Dogg, Jay-Z, Lenny Kravitz and Missy Elliott.
