"He called us the Kings of Vocals. That was exciting," says Nate Morris of Boyz II Men about performing as part of Michael Jackson and Friends benefit concert in Seoul, South Korea. The show, which raised money for a handful of notable charities, including UNESCO and the Red Cross, also featured Mariah Carey, Luther Vandross and, of course, Jackson, who spent his off hours with his offspring, Prince. "Mike is cool. He's different," Morris says. "He's been onstage since he was five. He never got to be a child himself. I know people say all kinds of things about his Feris wheel and all that, but he's just trying to relive his childhood." Watch out for a Boyz-Jacko collaboration sometime before the end of the century. "Being around Mike," Morris says, "shows you how much further you have to go." He is bad, you know.
