Here are the songs which Prince performed “We Will Rock You,” “Let’s Go Crazy,” “1999,” "Baby I’m a Star," "Proud Mary," "All Along the Watchtower," "Best of You," "Purple Rain.” He truly showed what a musical genius can do!

Janet Jackson Performs at the Essence Music Festival

Janet Jackson rocked it at the Essence Music Festival last Friday! Performing "What Have you Done for me Lately", "Feedback", and many more of her hits since the 80s! She sang "Together Again" as a tribute for her brother Michael Jackson.

It's the first time Janet performed since her last tour two years ago. It's as if she never went away, her choreography and singing was top-notch!

She recently admitted that she loved being back to acting as she featured in Tyler Perry's last movie "Why Did I Get Married Too" and is also featured in "When The Rainbow is not enuf", a movie also directed and produced by Tyler Perry. However she is thankful for everything she has in her life and loves to sing too.
