Beyonce Knowles has penned a heartfelt tribute to Michael Jackson on the fifth anniversary of his death.
The former Destiny's Child member took to her website to express her feelings about the late King of Pop, reported Ace Showbiz.
In the post, the 'Halo' hitmaker recalled that her first producer told her to watch Jackson's performance of 'Who's Loving You' for hours.
"What he wanted me to learn was his soul. You could hear his soul. And he was this little kid who hadn't experienced love but he was a vessel. For whatever reason he could evoke more emotion than an adult. It was so raw and so pure. It was these little things that he did that were just swag. It's something that's God given," she wrote.
"Michael taught me that sometimes you have to forget technique, forget what you have on. If you feel silly, you have to go from the gut just let it go. Michael Jackson changed me, and helped me to become the artist I am, thank you Michael," she added.
