A new song from the collaborative work of Akon with the king of pop Michael Jackson has just been streamed. The new track that could be one of the R 'n' B singer's new songs from his upcoming album "Acquitted" is being titled "Hold My Hand".

Akon himself has previously confirmed to the press that he wants Michael to be singing on one of the songs from the new LP and also will set the track as the lead single. "It's a worldwide record. The record is so huge. It's too big. (Michael's) the only person I could have collaborated with," he said.

Beside working with the pop legend on his album, the Senegalese singer reportedly also teams up with Michael to work on the "Beat It" hit maker's new studio set. According to the news, the two musicians have already started to record the new songs for the legendary singer's new LP in a studio in L.A. sometime in April.

Re: The Official Hold My Hand Thread, PT. II AKON/MJ DUET

looks like we got a day of it anyways. They are starting to take them down for 3rd party copyright claim on youtube..(quick someone put it on under a different name :lol: jk). So does that mean maybe a release soon?

Also, guys, don't forget to listen to the radio. It is a possibility that they might play the single on the radio. Keep your ears open. Also, itunes.com might have the song on their site.
 
Re: The Official Hold My Hand Thread, PT. II AKON/MJ DUET

Why did they remove the vid cause of third party claim. :( It was doing SO WELL :wild:

Maybe yea.. Michael said.... hey noo you ruin the surprise LMFAOO

On snap, the Youtube video with nearly 80,000 views got taken down.

no it's the usual message when the record companies' copyright minions go at work.

and it's only recently that Akon's Hold My Hand streams have been disappearing,,

in the words of a wise mjno man: so.........
 
Re: It's here: Akon feat. Michael Jackson "Hold my hand" UTube Audio pg. 1; lyrics posts 55 and 188

:wub::wild::clapping: OMG, Michael's voice is like a gift from Heaven to me. It's so incredibly beautiful, and he does blend very well with Akon, as others have said. I posted about it on myspace, and my sister told me she kind of liked it (which is good cuz she's not a fan of MJ's at all). She said they sound good together.
My fave parts are Michael's at the beginning and then the part around 2:20 when it picks up the tempo and is kind of like singing in a round. I love that! It makes me feel so happy! :dancin:
