“It was a pleasure working with MJ on his song. He took a timeless song from the 90’s and he wanted me to change the whole feel into a modernized cinematic, epic song. He was able to share his vision so vividly that it made a seemingly challenging task become a walk in the park. Not to mention MJ is also a one-take-wonder. He came to the studio to record vocals and it only took us less than 10 minutes.” – Rasec Marc Ortega
