Musicians Pay Tribute to Michael Jackson

Less than a week after the death of Michael Jackson, music artists flood the BET Awards to pay tribute to the King of Pop. "The Insider" has the interviews and reactions to this sudden loss ...

"He was the greatest artist we ever had," Diddy tells "The Insider". "He really changed our lives. Your heart it just hurts. It feels like something is missing. A lot of other things -- life goes on. Life is not really going on with this man not being here."

From Jamie Foxx to Beyonce, artists paid tribute through performances and kind words.

Jackson passed away Thursday afternoon at the age of 50.
