Jackson’s nephew, Jaafar Jackson, has been crowned the king of pop for the movie. Additionally, Juliano Krue Valdi was handpicked as the younger Michael. Oscar-nominee, Colman Domingo, has been chosen to play Joe Jackson alongside Nia Long who will assume the role of Katherine Jackson. Also, Miles Teller has been casted as the lawyer, John Branca.
The eight talented actors who have been brought on board as the Jackson Five have a variety of accolades and experience, making them the ideal team for the job. Without further ado…here they are!
According to sources, Jayden Harville is a 15-year-old actor who initiated his career in a commercial for “Doc McStuffins” with Disney Jr. At the time he was five and now…he will be making his film debut in this movie!
Jaylen Hunter (14) is well known for his Broadway career as young Simba in 2021. Moreover, he played young Marlon for the national tour of MJ: The Musical. It’s safe to say he’s a natural performer and ready to take on yet another exciting role.
While on the prowl for details, we learned that Judah Edwards is no stranger to the spotlight either. This young actor voiced characters for an array of productions such as, “ADA Twist” on Netflix and “Blaze And The Monster Machines” via Nickelodeon. He also made an appearance on Hulu‘s “Saint X”.
Younger Jackie is being played by Nathaniel McIntyre who is also a stage veteran. He was casted in Netflix‘s “Barry,” Disney+ movie, “Magic Camp,” and OWNs‘ “David Makes Man”. Additionally, he is known for his role as young Simba in Disney‘s “The Lion King” (on tour and Broadway).
As we look to the cast for the older Jackson Five brothers, it is clear these actors were solid selections. Jamal Henderson has been seen in a plethora of productions such as, BET’s “South Central Love” and Netflix’s “Mindhunter”.
Tre Horton has starred in theater productions such as, “Beauty and the Beast,” “A Chorus Line,” and “Amen Corner”, making him the right talent for the job!
Tito will be played by Rhyan Hill who was featured in Childish Gambino‘s “This is America” official music video. Hill was selected as a feature in “Grey’s Anatomy” and “Lovecraft Country”. Furthermore, BET+ appointed Hill as a regular on “The Michael Blackson Show”.
Lastly, Joseph David-Jones will play the older version of Jackie. David-Jones has been seen as the Green Arrow on CW‘s “Arrow” and “DC’s Legends of Tomorrow”. We will soon see him starring in “The 4400” with CW.
The co-executors of the Michael Jackson estate, Branca and John McClain, will be taking part in the production and the script being utilized for the film was written by Oscar-nominee John Logan. Lionsgate will be distributing the film domestically.
While fans display their anticipation throughout social media, worldwide, these phenomenal actors are preparing to debut their abilities on the big screen as the Jackson 5!

We’ve allowed the fireworks to silence and the dust to settle to dive into this project, listing some of our favorite tracks. Montana has done an outstanding job of leaving breadcrumbs and increasing the anticipation in the past few months pertaining to this mixtape.
The project begins with French and Amber Run with the “Dirty Bronx Intro”. Soothing vocals, captivating lyrics, and harmonies consume the first minute of the intro and then…..a switch up! French Montana includes clips of interviews and prominent figures speaking highly of his work while simultaneously giving us glimpse of his career throughout the years.
The second track comes in effortlessly and is titled, “Talk to Me”. “Million dollars for a show started from a cypher.” This track makes it evident that French Montana has not forgotten where he came from. He incorporates clips from movies and news reporters which add depth to the song.
“Stand United” is the third track on the project which features Kanye West, SAINt JHN, and Buju Banton. “If you only work on sunny days, you’ll never reach your destination.” This track has strong and soulful background vocals while the artists speak life into the listeners.
Lil Wayne and Rick Ross join Montana on the fourth track titled, “Splash Brothers”. Listeners will not be disappointed with this song. Lil Wayne begins his verse with witty word play; didn’t expect anything less. Ross brings it in throwing shots, “Boy, I can turn you ni**as up and that’s the bottom line.”
Lil Baby and ATL Jacob collab with French Montana on the next song, “Okay”. “Ended up dropping’ my top, okay. My ex told me she needed space (space). I guess we both goin’ to Mars, okay.” The flow and cadence of this track make it more appealing to the listener. It was produced by ATL Jacob, Hendrix Smoke, Royal808, and Duce.
Montana hit the booth solo for “Casino Life 3” and delivered perfectly. “O Ten, New York fell off, we brought the wave back. I’m Benny Blanco when he met Carlito by the train tracks.” He’s a great storyteller who fills his lyrics with punch lines, references, and confidence. The song has a hint of rock and roll, as the word starrider is repeated with the mesmerizing sound of a guitar in the background.
“Where They At” begins with Kanye yelling, “Don’t take no photos!” This song marks number seven on “Mac & Cheese 5”. Westside Gunn joins in on this track. “Reverse the odds, silk Versace on Big in hypnotize. California love, but New York my blood. Can’t pick a side.”
It was a breath of fresh air to hear skits playing throughout the project. Some would say this component is a dying additive within hip hop mixtapes and albums. However, I feel it brings more dimension to the blueprint of an album.
“Money Ain’t A Thing” featuring Lil Durk is an eye opener. Throughout the song, both artists talk about money in different ways. They also speak on things they’ve witnessed such as, someone they know getting shot and killed, people snitching, and others keeping their mouths shut when it mattered most. It’s safe to say, that money ain’t a thing when your life is on the line or when you’ve witnessed life slip away in a variety of ways.
Jeremih adds flavor to French Montana’s song, “Goals”. With the sounds of a Spanish guitar and Jeremih’s vocals, listeners can truly get lost in this track. “Doors open up like wings on an angel. She bend on me like her hands doing angles.” French Montana is on his lustful and sexy vibes with this one….certainly for the ladies.
Bryson Tiller begins “Fake Friends” with his unique style: “Hunnids coming in, too many fake friends. Ran me up on some millions, tryna run ’em up times ten. Where should I begin? “ We can all resonate with this song, as many of us have encountered what I like to call “pseudo friends”.
“Mac & Cheese 5” concludes with the song, “Documentary” featuring Mikky Ekko. “Guess I got a real habit of killing ’em all for the taste. It’s a life so savage, where all of your prayers go to waste. Take me by the hand, take me by the hand, let me lead you honey, to the pearly gates, oh.” This was a really nice surprise, an unexpected outro track. “Documentary” was a beautiful way to end the mixtape.
Lately, I’ve come across many projects that include similar sounding songs, very few features, no skits, and a lack of authenticity. Just a recommendation…stream “Mac & Cheese 5” if you haven’t already. Guaranteed, you will like what you hear. If you have already, which songs are your favorites?

“Love On” has come just in time for Spring. It is bubbly, soft, and makes you want to drive with the top down. With sexual innuendoes, lustful performance, and fashionable attire, the song and visual will certainly gain the attention of onlookers. It is apparent that Selena is displaying her self-love and appreciation for all walks of life.
The track was produced by The Monsters & Strangerz and Isaiah Tejada. Selena Gomez co-wrote the song with well known singer and songwriter, Julia Michaels along with Michael Pollack, Tejada, Jordan K. Johnson, and Stefan Johnson.

]]>Following the termination of her court-mandated conservatorship, Spears is making her way back into the spotlight musically. Will.i.am has been vocal about his support for her as he expressed to CBS Mornings this week, “I’ve been a fan, friend and supporter of Britney throughout the years. Supporter as far as a person that goes out and listens to her music — a support as far as somebody that’s there to help champion her through her times when she was fighting for her liberation. She is an amazing person.”
In addition to new music, Britney will be releasing her memoir, “The Woman in Me” on October 24th via Gallery Books. It appears she has been hard at work. Her fans have displayed their support and hope for the pop sensation as she continues along her journey of freedom and new endeavors.

Per NBC10 Philadelphia, the 25 year old was shot once in the back and transported to the hospital where he was pronounced dead at 8:39PM on Thursday evening. Two other men were shot during the incident, but are currently stable.
