This year, Michael Jackson's birthday falls on the same day as the Emmy Awards will be taking place, Sunday, August 29th. Director Spike Lee is having a huge birthday celebration in honor of the legendary pop icon and he did so also last year, and it was a success. According to a new report, rapper Fabolous talks about how the celebration being in Brooklyn is a great thing, but that the music is appreciated everywhere.
As MTV reports, Fabolous says of Spike Lee and the celebration: "I mean Brooklyn is just one of the many places across the world who lived Mike's music and, you know, Spike is probably one of those people that felt like it was only just die to give him his props in BK."
As the report states, the event will be taking place from 12 to 5 p.m. The location is at the Nethermead Field at Prospect Park in Brooklyn. If you love Michael Jackson's music, this is the place to be since all of his music will be played, and it will be a great, positive way to celebrate his life and legacy of music and love.
