Tito Jackson’s sudden death yesterday at age 70 is not going unnoticed.
Michael’s older brother, praised as a father and musician, will be celebrated a lot.
The Broadway musical, “MJ,” will dedicate Tuesday night’s performance to Tito.
Tonight in London, the UK version of “MJ” will do the same.
Meanwhile, Tito’s sons have posted a message to Twitter. They wrote:
“We are shocked, saddened and heartbroken. Our father Tito Jackson @titojackson5
was an incredible man who cared about everyone and their well-being. Please remember to do what our father always preached, “Love One Another.” We love you Pops and will forever miss you.”
As I wrote overnight, Tito had made a new life for himself in Tulsa, Oklahoma where he was starting several businesses. Sources there tell me he’d been embraced by the community as a star, and it was very satisfying for him.
Condolences to son Taj, who as you’ll see below, was in China when he got the news.
Today, we are with Taj Jackson in Chengdu, China, where he just performed at a tribute concert to honor his uncle Michael. Now, we gather to pray for his father, #TitoJackson. May he rest in peace and power. Our deepest condolences, love, and prayers are with him and his family. pic.twitter.com/gNxFu76ZpO
