How Michael Jackson Changed Music 

What is your favorite Michael Jackson song?

One fan Michael never lost was me. He was an eccentric soul, a tortured person, and made some decisions that were questionable at best, but I don't believe he ever knowingly harmed children. He was fighting his own demons after a childhood that none of us could really understand, but he always tried to help others. As you said, he never abandoned his brothers even after his fame far outgrew theirs, and I truly believe he cared about children because deep inside he was trying to heel his own childhood self.

No one can ever say that Michael Jackson will be forgotten. He was literally the most famous person to ever live

The fact that Michael jackson did off the wall , thriller , bad between the ages of 21- 30... that is WILD!!! Hit after hit after hit after hit!!!!!

Michael's legacy is only mixed in the USA or maybe the UK. Around the world he is still as beloved as he was during the 1980's.

Michael Jackson is one of those few musicians who still cast a big shadow in the pop culture/music realm.

I understand that this video was meaning to take a neutral stance on the Child Abuse Allegations, but I heavily urge anyone interested in finding out the truth to do some research because there is PLENTY of evidence that disproves many aspects of the accusers' testimonies. It's too much to really put in one comment but I'll sum it up best I can. Jordan Chandler, the original 1993 accuser, did not accuse any molestation until his father Evan Chandler (whom was divorced from the custody-held mother) extorted a confession out of him after kidnapping him from her and putting him in a dentist chair, feeding him Sodium Amytal, a type of laughing gas that is known to induce false memories under hypnosis. He had been trying to get him to confess for months at this point despite Jordan not once saying anything inappropriate happened. It got so bad that his mother was nearing the point of permanently restraining Jordan from his father, but once he got that confession, she ultimately decided that if Jordan is now saying he was molested, then it probably happened. But did they go to the police? Nope. They went straight to Jackson and demanded I believe $100 Million. When he refused, they went to the media and continued to pressure him into a payday. What does it say about a family whose child was abused that would rather take a hefty price than lock up the man that abused them? After the CIVIL trial was settled (which was a decision pushed by his insurance companies and lawyers because he would have lost a lot more money had he cancelled the rest of his tour to fight the case), the Chandler family refused to follow up with a criminal trial, letting free their supposed monster pedophile to the public, so long as they got paid. And to TOP IT ALL OFF, Jordan Chandler, upon reaching age 18, immediately emancipated himself from his family and there are some unconfirmed claims from credible sources that he admitted he lied. But that isn't to be put on Jordan's head, if true. Evan Chandler was the man that extorted the "confession" from him and used his alleged abuse for capital gain. It's no surprise that only a year after Jackson died, Evan Chandler would commit suicide, though admittedly, it is rather shitty to speculate and assume the reasoning for such suicide, but whatever it was, I'm comfortable saying he deserved it. Then we have Gavin Arvizo, the 2005 accuser, and I really don't even need to get into this one because there is so much to talk about as it was described as "a circus", for how many witnesses the prosecution pulled in that claimed the worst of the worst, and then crumbled under cross examination, things they claimed being immediately disproven, such as Jackson's Ex-Bodyguards and Maids (whom had stolen from Jackson prior and were successfully sued) and other witnesses all claiming they saw 5 boys molested. Three of those boys were Macaulay Culkin, Brett Barnes, and Wade Robson (more on him later). The 4th was Jordan Chandler, who didn't show up to court, and the 5th was a man named Jason Francia, who claimed he was tickled inappropriately. However, he had previously denied any inappropriate behaviour and only recently changed his story after being offered huge paydays from tabloids, as did his mother. But onto Gavin Arvizo, who claimed he and his brother were given alcohol in soda cans, shown pornographic magazines, and that Jackson masturbate him, the brother echoing these claims. Sounds damning, yes? ...The brother crumbled under cross examination and admitted he was lying under oath. That, for most, would be the end of the case... and yet it continued. There was also fabrication of evidence being taken place IN COURT! I shit you not, the prosecution attempted to tamper with state evidence by presenting the "Nude Children Magazine" (which btw was not a pornographic magazine, but rather a coffee table book of art photography that was likely gifted to Jackson by a fan) to Gavin Arvizo out of it's protective sleeve, letting him hold it, and then weeks later, presenting the same magazine to the court, arguing it was the magazine they were shown, and the proof were the FINGERPRINTS HE ONLY JUST PLACED. Also, the magazine's issue date was after the alleged abuse so that was another huge L. They had also brought in Debbie Rowe, Jackson's ex-wife, in hopes she would speak for the prosecution, but instead spoke in defense of Jackson. The trial was scheduled for 6-7 months, but it took only about 4 to complete. Anyone watching the trial knew that this was insanely bogus, and the prosecution had next to nothing for themselves. Oh, and one last thing about those first three boys that were supposedly molested, those were Jackson's first three witness, all claiming they were never touched. Wade Robson and James Safechuck are the last two main accusers with any sort of attention. The former, Wade Robson, you may recall, was a witness for the DEFENSE in 2005, but around 2012, he changed his story and claimed he had been molested at Neverland for a 14 week stretch of time in 1992. His timeline doesn't add up to Jackson's timeline, who was on his Dangerous World Tour at the time and had no 14-week stretch where he was there during the alleged abuse. His story had been changed numerous times in fact, with his reasonings for lying under oath changing from "He didn't know it was abuse at the time" to "He knew but he thought he would get in trouble" to "He was told it was an expression of love" to "He wanted to protect his friend". He had only started coming forward about alleged abuse after his career as a dance choreographer began plummeting. His last stint was to choreograph for the Cirque Du Soleil performance "Michael Jackson: One", but he was rejected from that position. Not too long after, he gave his story to Inside Edition about being molested (while privately asking the Jackson estate for millions in settlement money before even making an actual court case). He also claimed that he was swayed away from dating girls because they were supposed to be together, but that is easily disproved by the fact that Jackson introduced him to his niece Brandi Jackson and subtly got them together. The bulk of his claims were released in the HBO documentary Leaving Neverland, a bit more on that later. James Safechuck on the other hand, echos events and descriptions from the propaganda book Michael Jackson Was My Lover: The Secret Diary Of Jordie Chandler. This is blatant with how much he describes themes of school-like environments and events of "marriages with Michael" that were initially described in the book, by author Victor Gutierrez, relating to Jordan Chandler, the 1993 accuser. He describes being given a medallion of marriage, again, taken from the book where Michael supposedly gave a medallion to Wade, and that they allegedly had a wedding ceremony, but James claims it was himself, not Wade. So....a little about this book. It was promoted as being based of the diary of Jordan Chandler for the purposes of NOT framing Jackson as a Pedophile...but for PROMOTING Jackson as a Pedophile.... You heard right, The Secret Diary Of Jordan Chandler was a PRO-PEDOPHILIA book, and Victor Gutierrez was an open Pedophile, specifically of the propaganda group NAMBLA, which this book had circulated. The Chandler family, however, distanced themselves from this book and denied any relation to any diary or other connections to Jordan Chandler or the Chandler family. The few times he tries to add to his claims, he gets the dates horribly wrong, such as an instance where he claimed he was molested in the room above the Train Station...of which was not built until several years AFTER his alleged abuse, and of which he would have been 16 already, allegedly past his "cut off year" for Jackson. He also claimed he was given items such as the original Indiana Jones bullwhip and the Thriller Jacket, both of which are in fact NOT in his possession, nor were they ever. Both reside in their respective libraries and museums. His claims would also be featured in Leaving Neverland. *inhales* Now we're onto the "documentary" Leaving Neverland, released in 2019. I say "documentary" because it is only one by name. In context, there is ZERO documented evidence presented in the entire 4-hour film. The entire runtime is comprised of Anecdotes, Drone Shots of Neverland Ranch, and completely non-incriminating photos and videos, framed on an eerie backdrop to allude to a darker undertone without actually supplying any. In fact, the few points that the documentary tries to give concrete claims and timeframes, they were so easily disprovable that they were cut out of the overseas edit by nearly an HOUR less than what it was in America. This is largely thanks to the exposing of facts by RU-vidr Razorfist as well as Jackson relatives Taj and Brandi, among plenty of other people coming forward to his defense. Razorfists videos on the MJ Allegations are very enlightnening, I'd highly recommend checking them out! Since then, James and Wade once again tried their case in court, and it has once again been dismissed. Leaving Neverland is based on zero ground whatsoever. That outta be the end of my rant. I'm certain there's more to talk about but this is the gist as condensed as I could have put it (I've put it much larger in the past, this is the best I can do to articulate in detail).

A few important things to consider about the child sexual abuse allegations: The evidence from the 1993 allegations, collected over the span of a year, was presented to two California grand juries. Getting indictments from a grand jury is a relatively easy thing to do. As the saying goes, "A grand jury can indict a ham sandwich." The burden of proof is fairly low. All that the evidence needs to show is that it is reasonable to suspect that a crime may have been committed. Yet the evidence from 1993 was not compelling enough to result in a single indictment from either grand jury. This means two separate panels of experienced judges did not find it reasonable to believe that a crime was committed based on the evidence. Michael did not want to settle the 1993 case initially. However, the family of the alleged victim sued Michael Jackson in relation to the allegations, and the civil proceedings were slated to happen before any criminal proceedings. Long story short, this jeopardized Michael's constitutional right to a fair trial and to not incriminate himself in a criminal procedure. Despite Jackson's lawyers petitioning the judge, the dates would not change. Against Michael's wishes, his insurance company settled the civil lawsuit. The settlement did not impact the criminal proceedings in any way. The "Living With Michael Jackson" documentary in 2003 was deceptively edited, and the final film cut out several important clarifications that Michael made about many things, such as his plastic surgery, his personal life, his children, and, most importantly, the allegations. As stated, he was cleared of all fourteen indictments in 2005. The trial featured many witnesses from the prosecution, including the alleged victim and his family, fired staff and maids from Neverland, the 2003 doc interviewer, and many others, including the 1993 alleged victim's mother and sister. Again, the result was a firm "not guilty". This was not just a simple aquittal made in passing by a jury swooned by Michael's star power. It was a resounding vindication, with the jury not being able to find enough evidence for even the misdemeanor alcohol charges, let alone the child molestation charges. This was due to most of the prosecution's witnesses being unreliable, with many of them selling out patently false stories to tabloids. The HBO "Leaving Neverland" film is very apparently one-sided, not even giving a minute to defend Michael Jackson. It is hardly an objective piece, as most of the assertions are hearsay with little to no evidence to back them up. The accusers from that film are currently in a lawsuit with Jackson's companies, claiming that they facilitated abusez so we will see how that goes. Michael's estate is also pursuing a lawsuit against HBO for a breach of contract, but that case is most likely under seal, so we will probably not hear about the outcome of that case. Take these into consideration as you will.

Something about this man. He was exceptionally special. He had a massive effect on so many people over so many generations and over so many demographics it's unreal. What he achieved in the 80s was so high no one still has even got anywhere near. His fame was soooo massive you had Presidents, head of countries, police, journalists, everyone wanting to get near to him and get his autograph

He had extreme HIGHS, and extreme LOWS. What a life. His music will live on forever, w/ his brothers and without.

Michael Jackson was many things, an icon, a father, a troubled soul, a humanitarian, an abuser was not one of them. Hopefully one day his legacy won’t be tainted by the greed of others and industry agendas.

Not one piece of evidence ever surfaced against the guy. A guy who had the world after him. I pity him.

Overall, this is a good video but the part about the "nude artbook" is a bit misleading and I see it frequently being posted without much broader context. If I recall, it was gifted by a fan with an inscribed message from them since it was a best seller around the time it was published. The Santa Barbara police department, with assistance from the FBI, completely searched all of his residencies and as many hard drives as possible. These raids only found regular pornography of adults. The prosecution was so desperate for any "evidence" of child pornography (which simply did not exist) that they tried to spin this as such.

All of the rumors and hurtful things media said about Michael are the ultimate price for worldwide stardom. Really sad how most only apologized only after it was too late.

I've always been a fan of both Michael Jackson and Prince growing up I'm so happy to be watching this

Michael Jackson is simply one of the greatest entertainer/artist in the world. It's just upsetting of all the crap he had to go through (and still go through) because of his success, but none of that will ever dismish his legacy.

Michael Jackson is the only king of pop. Pure royalty.

To elaborate on the "sharing a bed with him" thing, it was actually very poorly worded. MJ's room was big af and had 2 king sized beds, he gave his own room to the parents and their kids so they all slept in his room's beds while MJ himself slept in the guest room of his own home. Edit: And it seems to me that the parents decided to attempt to capitalize off his poorly worded statement. Many of the kids I recall came forward and admitted their parents made them lie, many people were confirmed they were threatened and coerced into accusing him, and this is purely from memory but I recall one of the parents had killed themselves over guilt after MJ died and the kid came forward after to say that that parent had told him to lie. You'll see people claim the fbi didnt investigate him or did nothing at all despite there being 400 pages of their investigation, the fact that they tried so hard to get him locked up that they tried to use his own family photos, his childhood photos and playboy magazines. Not to mention the fbi has a track record when it comes to influential black men. They tried to break him down in any way possible and in the end resorted to finally k1ll1ng him like all other influential black people.

Long live Michael Jackson!

Michael had the world against him with the allegations, yet nothing surfaced against him. He was innocent in every single court case, and you know it's something when the FBI can't find anything on you. What a tortured soul.

RU-vidrs who wants to know more information about Michael Jackson should consult the podcasts called "Michael Jackson Case for Innocence", "Red Jackson Dance" (on RU-vid), "The Mjcast", and the documentaries "Square One MJ", "The Lies of Leaving Neverland”, “Michael Jackson Private Home Movies”, “Michael Jackson Take Two The Footage You Were Never Meant to See”, “Michael Jackson The Humanitarian”, and “Loving Neverland”. These multiple documents are precious and rich in information that the media refuses to adequately broadcast.

Micha Jackson is the G.O.A.T. No one can even come close to him until today. He is intelligent, creative, talented, philanthropic, hard-working, kind, respectful, handsome, charismatic, humble and a world-class leader. People are so jealous of him that they betrayed him, made use of him, backstabbed him and eventually murdered him. Anyone who did harm to him, your soul will never rest in peace. The people didnt deserve him. RIP MJ.💔

The Jackson 5 and The Jacksons deserve a much more insight dive, their catalog is just as great as Michael Jackson’s catalog.

Fun Fact: Marshall Thompson of the Chi-Lites discovered the Jackson Five, and brought them to Bobby Taylor. Bobby,who was signed to Motown with his group “The Vancouvers”, took them to the label. Jeffrey Daniel of the hit group Shalamar taught Michael how to do the moonwalk. It was confirmed by hit singer Stephanie Mills,who was married to Jeffrey at the time,and dated Michael briefly in the late ‘70’s.

I love how each of his albums perfectly encapsulates the sound of the time while not sounding derivative or like they’re trying too hard to be trendy.

I remember where i was when i first heard of the death of the King. It was an incredibly sad day for me... thank you for the music MJ

My biggest inspiration

Michael Jackson: The King Of Music

Well done 👏🏼✨ Easily one of the more accurate biographies I’ve seen on Michael.

There will never be another Michael!! Still miss him :(

It’s amazing to me how much talent came out of the Midwest. The J5 traveled between Chicago, Detroit and NYC and met many great artists along the way, including James Brown and Jackie Wilson. It’s said that the J5 opened for both at clubs in Chicago. In any case, I wonder what caused so much talent to be located in that corridor. The Motown acts alone were crazy talented

He is the most incredible entertainer the world WILL EVER know.... no discussion

This was amazing!!!! One of my favorite videos you have done so far. Would love to see more MJ content from you in the future. Keep it up!! :)

Morbid, but death always brings a huge wind of interest for an artist. Michael Jackson's death brought about a huge amount of new interest that I have yet to see. I remember trying to find a CD as a kid with my mom and we just couldn't find a single album. It was nuts.

HIStory is my favorite album of all time. Everything from the short films, to the world tour, to the actual music feels *historical*, it's epic and beautiful, often classical. It's the equivalent of My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy in MJ's discography. Invincible was decades ahead of its time, and it has wonderful and often overlooked ballads, like Butterflies, Whatever Happens and Heaven Can Wait.

I don't think he'll ever be dethrone as the King of Pop, even in death.

Finally the king of pop got his deserved introduction!! 🔥🔥

His music is really great and I love to put him on sometimes. My personal favourite songs of his are “Human Nature”, “Rock With You”, “The Lady In My Life” and “I Just Can’t Stop Loving You”. Also, Is it just me or do I think the accusations were made for drama? Because I believe the media would’ve so envious of his success that they decided to make up “bad” things that MJ never did. Plus, we should never make assumptions about situations unless we have proof… and that’s why the media/paparazzi etc… sucks and is an insult to fame. RIP Michael.

Michael Jackson: *The King Of Pop Music* 🎤 👑✨

He was the first musician I became a fan of. Since I was young, I adored his music, and he's still my favorite artist ever!

Michael Jackson is the greatest of all times....his fame destroyed him...making many weird issues , scandals ,allegation against him..He was intensively bullied and tortured mentally by evil people --- even the media ......Hope they let his death in peace ..miss Michael Jackson

*MJ will always be the goat*

Michael Jackson never lost any fans

So lucky you've uploaded today! I just started watching your channel a couple days ago and I've been watching your videos whenever I get the time. Thanks to you I'm broadening my music history knowledge in my free time and can just sit back and watch. Your last video was 2 months ago so I was bummed out I couldn't tell you how great you are but on this video I'm super early so you might just read it. Thank you for this incredible content dude and PLEASE keep it coming. I'm gonna be through all of your content before i know it.

Always have been a fan always will be a fan

I think that he grew up in hotel rooms, and if he wasn’t in the hotel room, he was in Studios or on stage or on tour. His only refuge was the bed. Where he could play with his brothers. Imagine what that must feel like growing up where the only place that you feel safe and you feel that you can be a child is in bed.

I originally became interested in the Jackson 5 and Michael Jackson due to J Dilla sampling them a few times. My favorite example is "All I Do Is Think of You" being used in "Time: The Donut of the Heart"

Dangerous is my favorite MJ album.

Triumph and Destiny are sorely underrated

I was 20 when he died. Hard to describe what a star he was. You had to witness it to understand it

That ending shot was great😆 Great video all around too! As a big Jackson fan, this was a really good run down of his life, or I guess you could say HIStory.

would love to see a video on Janet Jackson's career, I feel like she's criminally underrated nowadays even though she was arguably BIGGER than Michael during some points of her career. I think a lot of people only know her for the Super Bowl incident today which is really unfair

😢no matter what the media or any other hater say Michael Jackson will always be remembered and will be number 💯 to me and million other fans to ,you can not stop that at all still RIP Michael Jackson The King Of Pop never will forget him ❤❤😊😊

THE KING OF POP BABY!!!!!! Wooo!!!!

Ladies and gentlemen, the greatest entertainer of all time

Honestly even though he has been pretty much one of the greatest musicians of all time, there is much I didn’t even know before watching this video. This gets a 10/10 from me (P.S: Please do a History About Weird Al Yankovic)

Michael Jackson is my favorite singer entertainer ever he was such a good person and donated so much money to charity has the biggest selling album of all time was a amazing father also his legacy will always live on

Glad you got into some off michaels charity work witch is often forgotten👍

So glad to say l was around as a thirteen year old eight grader when Michael and his brothers hit the scene releasing their first hit single ‘l Want You Back’ in 1969. I finally got to see them live in concert on May 4th, 1979.

Just want to say first and foremost, I'm a big fan of you, Mr. Beat, but I think there's some bits here that are either mischaracterized or simply inaccurate. I understand this is a summary and can't include every little tid-bit but there's some important context to some of these that warranted something. 13:20 I think it's worth noting that during Michael's biopsy in 1993 and his autopsy in 2009 they found that the vast majority of surgeries he had were not cosmetic but reconstructive due to him suffering from Lupus. In fact, his autopsy indicates he had only had two nose jobs his entire life (I know it sounds crazy, I was surprised too). 20:07 It's not just "likely" he used creams. He _did_ use prescription Benoquin cream to even out his skin tone. It was found in his house after his death. 24:33 Bruce Swedian is pronounced Bruce Swe-deen. 27:15 I don't wanna get too defensive but if you thought bringing up "Boys Will Be Boys" was necessary I think it would be only fare to also note that the only time Jordan himself denied all claims to being abused until he was administered sodium amytal by his father, which makes people highly suggestable, often resulting in false memories being implanted. 27:37 The settlement in this case didn't prevent the Chandlers from making a criminal case against Michael but they simply chose not to after being paid. 30:34 The HIStory Tour is not the most attended tour by a solo artist, Ed Sheeran's ÷ Tour had almost twice the attendance, likely because it was over three times the amount of shows Michael performed. The bridge accident in 1999 that irreversibly damaged Jacksons' spine and brought back his drug addiction to the point it killed him definitely should've gotten at least a passing mention. 32:35 The 30th Anniversary Celebration never became/got it's own concert film. 34:01 Not really important enough to mention in this video but this concert almost featured a saxophone solo in Black or White from none other than Bill Clinton according to LaVelle Smith Jr. (one of Michael's back-up dancers and choreographers) in his documentary "The Man Behind The Dance. 34:18 Not even mentioning Martin Bashir and his incredibly manipulative tactics he used here is odd. In fact, there's a whole documentary about the documentary called "Take Two - Living With Michael Jackson" where they show footage where Bashir lies to Michael that was removed from the final cut. Bashir did the same thing with Princess Diana. Also as an aside, the Vanity Fair article linked in your description as a source, despite it's confidently asserting title is wrought with inaccuracies, is completely unsourced and was written by Maureen Orth, who also wrote an article claiming Michael paid $150,000 to participate in a voodoo ritual where he bathed in sheep's blood and that if he didn't his money would disappear. This is obviously completely unsubstantiated and she's by no means a serious journalist. I always worry that dispelling all these rumours makes me come off as a deranged MJ fan here to defend him. I just want people to relay more accurate information.

From what I’ve seen, Jackson is bigger than ever. The MJ musical and upcoming biopic will soar him to new heights. The allegations have never been proven and I believe he was used for greed. He was unfortunately an easy target. The music will live on forever.

The bigger the star the bigger the target. Michael may have made some bad decisions but that doesn’t make you a criminal. Committing a crime makes you a criminal. That, he was not. He was too trusting, too naive but also too stubborn to change his ways. He will forever be unfairly tarnished with that brush because of people’s greed and love of money. MJ will always be King of Pop.

love these videos, keep up the good work

These videos are worth the wait, you rule!

You are so good at these artists intros, please keep making em

I've been waiting for this video for so long!!

Fun Fact yall I was born 23 days before Michael Jackson died. Not really that informational but I just decided to put it here.

You did an awesome job on this Bio. Thank you for your hard work.

Michael Jackson was the very first music artist i got into back in 1982, i was 11 years old. When i got into junior High I got into Bon Jovi and ever since then i been a metalhead. but if it wasn't for Michael Jackson i wouldn't of find my love for music. Ty Muchael..R.I.P.

Regarding the nose jobs: Michael only got 2 intentionally. The other revisions were to correct the scar tissue developing as a result of his lupus illness which affects the body’s ability to heal from wounds properly. He wasn’t able to breathe it was so bad. This is also why the 1984 Pepsi burn wound never healed and bothered him as late as 2008 as seen during his final photo shoot.

Usually mj biographies arent to accurate this guy did pretty good for the most part

Great video, you did tons of research and know your stuff. You cant fake knowledge. The most important thing about him as a person, is he never acted like he was above anyone else, always humble and respectful and classy.

One of the best docs ever! Simple, clear, and informative. Thanks!

Thank you so much for this great and informative video. We will always love Michael Jackson and his family.

You did a fair job on this. You covered his life accurately without demonizing him. You talked about the allegations but also talked about the acquittals. You were very fair & I thank you. Michael is NOT a child molester & the fanbase will see to it that those allegations become a footnote in his story. They are things thrust upon him rather than things that define him. It's an evil agenda pumping up those stories. That's why that image fades away as soon as the media machine stops. What you are left with once the noise dies down is one of the most prolific artists & individuals in world history.

As always. Excellent content sir. My suggestion for the next episode is of the short lived firework that was WHAM!

This is very detailed, enlightening and entertaining at the same time. Good job guys

Finally the King Of Pop and the Greatest Entertainer of All time gets a video

I already loved your work, have for years. This one tho...this one makes you the GOAT.

This was well done. Many of the details regarding his parent’s musical background was new to me. Thanks for sharing.

wow what an amazing history video of Michael Jackson. Great work!!

Excellent commentary. Well done.

The ‘fat nose’ foreshadow was savage.

Amazing Mr Beat thank you so much ❤

Before a lifetime of listening to rock and metal, the first cassette I had for my walkman was "off the wall" and the first vinyl I bought was "thriller". Year's later, his movie was the last film I saw in the theater with my dad before he passed away in a car accident after my daughter's birthday party. I think I'm going to pour a nice drink and go on a Michael Jackson video binge.

Brandon was actually Michael's older brother. He died a year before Michael was born.

Michael Jackson is and always will be a musical genius. After I heard he had passed. I began to discover his music had hidden lyrics. I went through a spiritual encounter. At first it was amazing but then it became painful for me. To the point I felt I was dying inside. There were moments I just could not deal with it no longer. That I was on a destruction path due to being tormented. I will say this MJ's music and everything he ever did reflect the Bible and me being raised Baptist I like what I was seeing for example the Beat It jacket was to reflect Jesus's crucifixion. I believe he see himself within Jesus because when you are in this industries you do pay the Price of Fame. I also went down a dark path but it was all the good deeds I felt I was doing was being turned against me to make me look like a Monster and I became Threatned by it to the point I feel like Somebody was watching me and still is. Yet I lay here typing this with a broken heart but what can I do but waste away in my sorrow. Trying to be there for someone I thought I knew. Mairchetaheal

Great video man! :)

That was an epic post. Enjoyed listening to you

HIStory is an album my dad had in his collection and it was my first abroad to Michael Jackson's Greatness.

wondering why it took so long for an Iconic American Hero like the KING OF POP to have his own video

loved the video!

I always used to see him in adverts, and I was born and grew up in Nigeria, a country in west Africa, I always sang Billie Jean with my sisters and the first day of my new job which was June 25th 2009, immediately my new boss and my new colleagues started to cry and I didn’t know why then they told I just joined them crying and now my son,I only told him that there was named that and he was the best musician ever, till now this exact second he’s still a fan I’m even afraid that he is worshipping him,R.I.P Michael😢😢😢😢😢😢😢, you will always remain the king of pop and your music will always spread with more and more generations.

If anyone is interested to know the man before he is judged , there is square one on RU-vid, or you want to know the man even better on his creatives there is MJcast. Lastly a young mum did a podcast " the Michael Jackson case for innocence podcast.

This video comes out at the same time when I'm listening to his music for the first time months lol

I know every single detail about him but still watched this in fascination like it was the first time. His music and estate has made $2 billion since his death. He's the richest dead celebrity

I dont think anybody could ever be as famous as Micheal. People who say taylor swift are delusional.

I don’t leave likes on videos; I rarely do, but this was well made. Great job! I love Michael. My first song that I listened to was ‘Bad’… okay, let me rephrase that. The first song of his I listened to was ‘Bad’ on MTV… okay, okay… the first song I ever listened to was titled ‘Bad’… in hindsight, ‘Bad’ is a bad name, but you guys get what I mean. He was so popular; his music played all the time, and I just became a bigger fan over time. But I didn’t have McDonald’s money as a kid, so I wasn’t going to see ‘This Is It.’ My entire neighborhood was quiet in June 2009. I saw the news report and didn’t know what it meant, but when I learned what it meant, I didn’t think there would be any more good songs. Luckily, music was good until 2016, and as many hits came and went, I always have Michael’s in rotation, with ‘You Rock My World’ as my favorite. Music won’t be the same, and it’s because a king rose to do something no one else could in the genre or music in general. We had something good, and people took it from us, but his music is still some of the best to bless this world, even if it doesn’t deserve it.
