26 Jun 2009, written by gsm staff 0 Comments

Mobile Soul isn’t exactly known as a show for pop. But we do recognize the King, Michael Jackson. You know, our second client ever was MJJ Records at Sony. We saw all the love pouring out all over the world, and so we had to get out and join the festivities. Michael’s music was inspiration for us all, but all night, we’ve been hearing the same songs! Here are some great interpretations and remixes of some of his famous tunes. This is our celebration of the gloved one’s life – Mobile Soul Style!

Enjoy.
