On this short but humorous clip, Ne-Yo recalls getting the phone call from Michael Jackson himself to put some work in for a new album he was working on. But it wasn’t until Ne-Yo met the legend in a studio in NYC where MJ sung a couple words to “Go On Girl” that this was one of the best moments of his career AND life. Ne-Yo’s Behind The Music will air tonight at 9pm on VH1.
