A surge of solidarity. During the night from Friday to Saturday September 9, 2023, an earthquake struck southern Morocco. A violent earthquake reaching an intensity of 6.8 on the Richter scale and which unfortunately caused damage in the country. The latest human toll shows nearly 3,000 dead and 5,530 injured.
To help these victims and support the Moroccan people, M6 therefore organized a charity concert, “All with Morocco” in partnership with The Red Cross for the benefit of the Moroccan Red Crescent. Broadcast in prime time on Wednesday September 13, 2023, this event brought together several artists such as Patrick Bruel, Natasha St-Pier, Claudio Capeo, Faudel, Hoshi, Natasha St Pier, Tina Arena, Joseph Kamel, Ycare and even M. Pokora.
A last minute concert made possible thanks to the responsiveness of the Électron libre production company, whose director agreed to confide in the organization of this event to our colleagues at 20 minutes : “We spoke with Nicolas de Tavernost and the management of M6 to try to set up this project in record time. We have real expertise, real know-how in this area. Indeed, itIt’s a first to organize this type of evening in three days. For the concert for Notre-Dame at the Invalides, we had five or six. But we said to ourselves: ‘Let’s go anyway.’We work non-stop. It’s a team effort.”

Mr. Pokora’s performance highly commented on the Web
During his time on stage, Christina’s darling Milian chose to perform the song Heal the worldby Michael Jackson. A choice that made many Internet users react on the Web. Some indeed found the artist’s performance unconvincing. : “Michael Jackson in his coffin when he heard Matt Pokora massacre his song ‘Heal the world'”, “We’re talking about Matt Pokora who massacred Michael Jackson’s song”, “I love M Pokora but here I admits he butchered Michael Jackson’s song”we can read.
Fortunately, other Internet users remembered that it was a charity event organized at the last minute… And that therefore, the artists who agreed to join this project only had a little time to repeat: “You who like to talk about Matt Pokora having ‘massacred’ (according to your words) MJ’s song, I invite you to sing it live while the show was organized 2 days before and with technical problems in addition, can’t wait to see what it can do with your voices”we can also read on X (formerly Twitter).
When I saw Matt Pokora destroy Michael Jackson’s song on M6 I thought there was going to be an earthquake in France.

you who like to talk about Matt Pokora having “massacred” (according to your words) MJ’s song, I invite you to sing it live while the show was organized 2 days before and with technical problems in addition, looking forward to see what it can do with your voices.
