Jermaine Jackson is proud of his son Jaafar for making his first footprint in the music industry.
With his long anticipated debut single and music video “Got Me Singing” released on 28 June 2019, Jaafar Jackson started raising his own bar. With it’s bold, flirtatious lyrics backed by it’s Caribbean inspired melodic content, “Got Me Singing’” has a certified summertime vibe. Shot in Vidigal, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, the accompanying video has since garnered almost 9 million views on YouTube (VEVO). With it’s eye-catching choreography intertwined with an intoxicating, yet chill atmosphere, this was to be expected.
Jaafar Jackson is set to portray his uncle, Michael Jackson, in the highly anticipated biopic MICHAEL distributed by Lionsgate (US) and Universal Pictures International (outside US, excluding Japan). Directed by Antoine Fuqua, produced by Academy Award-winning Graham King (GK films) with a screenplay by three-time Oscar nominee John Logan, this opportunity humbles and honors Jaafar as he brings his uncle's extraordinary story to life on the big screen.
