Teddy Riley on Oprah

Teddy Riley, a veteran producer and friend of Michael who collaborated with him on many of his albums and projects, wrote on Twitter that he is heading to record a show hosted by Oprah Winfrey. Oprah has had a Michael season, and apparently she doesn’t want to let anyone pass. Riley wrote: "I’m going to Oprah’s show to talk about my mentor, my older brother, and my best friend, Michael J. Jackson. Thank you (Michael) for the time and respect you gave me." He wrote that his interview is only about Michael, and that he will be there to support and stand by him. A few hours later, he explained that he has instructions not to say anything about it after the show airs. But he wrote that his show will be on air on December 6. In the end, he dedicated his love to the MJ fans. It was also reported from his Twitter that Hollywood Tonight and Where Your Children Are are two different songs. Earlier, it had been rumored that the recent song titled Hollywood Tonight would be on the Michael album. Teddy Riley is considered the founder of the new jack swing style in modern music. After the Bad album, Michael separated from Quincy Jones to build the Dangerous album in 1991 with Teddy Riley. Riley produced half of Dangerous with Michael. That album is the most successful era in the new jack swing style. Source: eMJey / twitter.com/TeddyRiley۱
