I couldn't stand up or hold my head up," he said in his hospital room Thursday. Now, smiling broadly, he showed off his newly acquired musical skills, playing Michael Jackson's "Beat It" on a keyboard with a small assist from a music therapist.

The 30-second ad, inspired by Michael Jackson’s “Black or White,” is out on Vijay TV, which is allotting 8-10 slots every week. Some of them are on prime time, while the others play on the afternoon band. This is part of the corporate social responsibility activities of the channel, says R. Balachandran, Vijay TV’s vice president (planning and marketing). Television will provide a wide reach, he believes.

DJs rarely played the same-ole, same-ole hip-hop airing on the radio. Last night, DJ Justice killed it with a Michael Jackson set, and then D.R. delivered old-school underground hip-hop. Davis sent us home with Chicago-style house music.

Similar to a dance recital — but on ice — this skating performance follows the evolution of music over time. Children will skate to tunes from The Beetles and Michael Jackson. Tickets are $10 for adults 13 and older; $5 for children and $25 total for two adults and two children.

Fire’s parents are Haitian, and during his childhood in Central Nyack he wasn’t allowed to listen to rap in the house. However, he inevitably heard hip hop through his friends. In high school, he started listening to 2Pac, Dr. Dre, and, most of all, Biggie. “Biggie was my dude. I mean, I really love that rapper.” He also finds Michael Jackson inspiring because his music reached people around the world, which is essentially what Fire hopes to do.
