It's obviously a spoken word version. He's not mocking at all. It'd be worse if he tried to actually sing.
I'm wondering if you would be as sensitive about this if Michael was still alive?

Questlove is doing a cover of Cateano Veloso's cover of Billie Jean. In essence it's a cover of a cover with Erykah being soulful in the background.

this is a cover of caetano veloso's version of Billie Jean, a laid back down tempo rendition.... I think Michael would have loved it,

First of all thanks for everyone who liked the post. i coudnt find this song on youtube so i thought i'll share this with you.
secondly MJ is a singer and a writer and this version of Billie Jean is a tribute to his writing not his singing so by no means questlove is mocking MJ, but in fact bringing those beautiful words to life.
