R.I.P Michael Jackson

RIP Michael JacksonWhen millions of Ethiopians were starving to death in a famine that hit the country in 1984/85, under the military regime of Marxist dictator Mengistu Haile Mariam, Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie wrote what became one of the fastest-selling singles ever with "We Are the World." The song was produced to raise money for victims of the Ethiopian famine. So selfless was Michael Jackson that he decided to skip the American Music Awards ceremony during that night to record the chorus of the song as a guide to the other artists.
