Michael died on Christmas Day last year at the age of 53. Now his family is reaching out to his fans with a Christmas message asking them to take a moment and remember Michael.

“This year has been a series of new and tough challenges for those of us close and loyal to Yog, not least of which was steeling ourselves this month, to hear ‘Last Christmas’ and ‘December Song’ streaming out of shops, cars, and radios, as it has done for decades, knowing he’s no longer here with us, missing him,” they wrote. “This Christmas will be hard without him, but we know that we are not alone in our mourning the anniversary of his loss, and that the sadness of our wider family, and true friends, is shared by many of you.”

The statement continues, “So if you can, in his memory this year, take a moment and a deep breath and say those ‘I Love You’s’ out loud. We all think there is time, don’t we? – but, just maybe, it’s later than you think…”

“You got hurt because this person was talking about you on a stage,” Jay-Z said. “But what really hurt me was, you can’t bring my kids and my wife into it. Kanye’s my little brother. He’s talked about me 100 times. He made a song called ‘Big Brother.’ We’ve gotten past bigger issues. But you brought my family into it, now it’s a problem with me. That’s a real, real problem. And he knows it’s a problem.”

“He knows that he crossed the line. I know him. He knows. I know he knows, because we’ve never let this much space go between one of our disagreements, and we’ve had many, because that’s who we are. That’s what I like about him. He’s an honest person, he’s open and he’ll say things and he’s wrong a lot of times and he’ll confront it,” he added.

According to ET, the 47-year-old rapper paid tribute to Chester Bennington during the V Festival in Staffordshire, England. The two worked together on 2004’s Collision Course mash-up EP with Linkin Park.

“Can you guys light it up tonight for Chester?” Jay-Z told the crowd. “Linkin Park, one time, tonight. Please make some noise so he can hear you all the way in heaven tonight!”

During his set, he honor his late collaborator by performing “Numb/Encore” for the audience. The rapper also performed several tracks from his latest album, 4:44, including “Kill Jay Z,” “The Story Of O.J.,” “Family Feud,” and “Smile.”
