Tevin Campbell: All I gotta say about that is the man is dead and he’s not here to defend himself. It’s great.

Tevin Campbell: The only thing I did live was at the 20th anniversary of A Goofy Movie [at Disneyland] in Anaheim, that was a couple years back, and I did it live with the dancers … they did a whole choreographed [routine], so it was cool.
