Jackson's spokesperson, Howard Rubenstein, announced in a statement that Jackson plans to record a new song, titled "What More Can I Give," along with the involvement of many fellow musicians. Those stars already committed to the effort are Destiny's Child, Nick Carter of the Backstreet Boys, Mya, Britney Spears, and Justin Timberlake of 'N Sync, with others lining up to be part of this charitable effort.

Jackson said, "I believe in my heart that the music community will come together as one and rally to the aid of thousands of innocent victims. There is a tremendous need for relief dollars right now and through this effort each one of us can play an immediate role in helping comfort so many people. We have demonstrated time and again that music can touch our souls. It is time we used that power to help us begin the process of healing immediately."

Jackson is currently working on "What More Can I Give." He will personally produce the song, and record it with other artists in two versions, English and Spanish. "What More Can I Give" will be released as soon as possible. The proceeds from the song's distribution will go to a relief fund for the victims' families and survivors.

Jackson has been actively involved in charitable activities throughout his life, including the 1985 "We Are the World: USA for Africa" effort, which raised $65 million to aid famine victims in Africa. He co-wrote the song "We Are the World" and was one of the many performers that participated in its recording. In 1999, Jackson organized two charitable concerts 'Michael Jackson & Friends' in Germany and Korea, which raised $3.3 million for charity.

When Michael Jackson arrived to the event and was being escorted to his seat, he was greeted by deafening cheers from the audience. He was seated next to his parents, Elizabeth Taylor, and Macaulay Culkin to watch the first part of the concert, as various stars performed their renditions of Michael Jacksonclassics.

Michael Jackson took the stage in the second part of the show, performing a medley of Jackson 5 hits including "ABC, "I Want You Back," and "I'll Be There," together with his brothers Jackie, Jermaine, Tito, Marlon, and Randy. This marked the first occasion for the Jacksons to perform together since their 1984 Victory tour. 'NSync joined the Jacksons in a performance of "Dancing Machine". Billboard magazine described Michael Jackson's stage presence as "formidable" and added that Jackson "..dazzled the audience with each shimmy and yelp. The highlight was the group's performance of 'I'll Be There,' which showcased Jackson's soulful interpretation of the classic." Finally, it was time for Michael Jackson to perform hits from his solo career. He was first joined by Britney Spears in a rendition of "The Way You Make Me Feel." Finally, alone on stage, he delighted the audience with the performance of his legendary song "Billie Jean." Then came of "Beat It" and "Black or White," accompanied by Slash playing the guitar.

Michael Jackson told the crowd, "I want to thank everyone who came tonight. It was an incredible experience. I love you all. Thank you so much." Following the concert, a post-party was held at New York's Tavern on the Green restaurant. The party's theme was the Wizard of Oz and featured arcade games, stilt walkers, and Munchkins passing out candy. Michael Jackson arrived there at about 1:30 AM.
