Alicia Keys said that sitting in the audience, she felt a wave of goodwill throughout the night from those in attendance who were shouting, yelling or doing whatever else they had to do to express their feelings about Jackson.

“There is no way this should have happened without saluting Michael Jackson,” Keys said. “This is his foundation. We all grew up on him. He’s loved all over the world. You can feel a very high energy here. This show is really genuine and beautiful.”

In Beverly Hills, the 22nd Annual ASCAP Rhythm & Soul Music Awards – honoring songwriting achievements in the R&B, soul, rap, hip-hop and gospel genres – became a total memorial to Jackson, as the audience observed a moment of silence and presenters and award-winners alike extolled Jackson’s unparalleled influence on the industry.

Winner Alicia Keys thanked Jackson for breaking “all the rules” and “inspir[ing] us all to hopefully break the rules, because we have to break the rules in order to reap the benefits.”

“I did meet him one time, and it was amazing. “He was just an awesome dad, great with his kids. His kids were so smart and attentive. They were there in the conversation as well. We had a great time. We threw around paper airplanes his son was making – like these really cool ones that were just brilliant. It was just beautiful to meet him. I’m glad I got the chance.”
