Jackson 5 To Reunite To Collect BMI Icon Award Next Month?

August 5, 2008
Jackson 5 To Reunite To Collect BMI Icon Award Next Month?The Jackson 5 are to be honoured at the Urban Awards next month – increasing speculation that they may reunite onstage at the ceremony.

The brothers will receive the BMI Icons prize, which in the past has gone to the likes of James Brown and Isaac Hayes.

It's understood that each member of the five-piece, expect Michael, have confirmed their appearance at the ceremony in Beverly Hills on September 4th.

The Jacksons are being honoured for their astonishing contribution to music, which began in 1969 with the hit 'I Want You Back'.

The group, who were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997, also collaborated with a number of major musicians during their career together, including Mick Jagger.

Reports have previously suggested that all the brothers were prepared to reunite together for a tour this year, although Michael is currently recording his new studio album.
