Michael Jackson's Nephew Jaafar Jackson Drops the Video for His Debut Single "Got Me Singing"

Jaafar is all grown up.

It runs in the family. Jaafar Jackson — the son of Jermaine Jackson and nephew of Michael Jackson — has released his debut single "Got Me Singing." 

The song, which was produced by veteran producer Hardy Indiigo, features the 22-year-old singing over poppy, light-hearted, Caribbean-influenced production.

Speaking about the song in a press release, Jaafar said:

I knew this song would be a special one and would be a great introduction to my sound and upcoming album.  It gave me a feeling of wanting to dance.  I can't wait to share it with the world and hope they get the same feeling.

The song has a big global feel to it. Which would explain the video: Jaafar went to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil to shoot his first video. In the clip, he meets a young lady who takes him around [the wet] city.

"Got Me Singing" is the first single from Jaafar's upcoming debut project. Check out the video below.
