[Skit]
My son Benjamin has always been the smartest kid I ever knew
We didn't have much money because I was in the army
Ben was smart enough to do anything he wanted
He could easily have become a doctor, lawyer, scientist
His love for music was very clear early on
When he started singing all of the words to Michael Jackson and Tone Loc songs
When he was five, Benjamin was mixing his own cassette tapes using an old turntable with dual cassette tape deck
His favorite album to sample was Michael Jackson's Thriller and that resulted in numerous, eh, special cassettes for Benjamin alone
I'm very proud of my son for following his dream in music and refusing to surrender to the pressures of a tangled world
The things I wish for Ben's future are: be happy, stand up straight for your beliefs
Remember your family, and help people whenever you can
