Michael Jackson - Wanna Be Startin' Somethin' (Audio) 

1980 : Michael is king of pop 1990 : Michael is king of pop 2000 : Michael is king of pop 2010 : Michael is king of pop 2020 : Michael is king of pop My sweetheart always a king of pop

"IF YOU CAN'T FEED YOUR BABY, THEN DON'T HAVE A BABY." - MJ No truer words have ever been spoken.

“I believe in me, so you believe in you”

Michael J died 2009 but still alive 2024❤

I don't care what anyone says about MJ, this song he created was one of the BADDEST, FUNKIEST, and COLDEST tracks ever made!!!!

His songs never gets boring That's why he is called ' king of pop'

Smoking a joint with some juice and water while sitting in an open shed listening to all my favorite Michael Jackson songs, life couldn’t be better

Probably the best Michael Jackson song ever!!

NOBODY moved like Michael. He hired the best dancers on earth and THEY couldn’t move like him. MJ, thanks for being here and sharing yourself with us. We didn’t deserve you, but we needed you.

This is possibly the greatest album opening track ever.

Never gets old man

The most talented entertainer our species has ever produced

MIchael had a supernatural amount of talent. Nobody can covince me otherwise.

Ladies and gentlemen the one and only king of pop MICHAEL JACKSON 👑

I still can’t sit still when I hear this song. 2024 RIP MJ🙏🏽

My stress reliever song of all time. Makes me wanna dance

King of Pop 😊🎧🎤🎵🎶🎤❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

70's • Prodigy 80's • Genius 90's • King 2009 Forever • Angel

Miss u king of Pop

The real king of pop It's march 2024

I love how at 2:31 he mentions Billie Jean and further emphasises she's a liar🤣👌🏿we love a consistent king

3:49 "if you can't feed your baby, than don't have a baby." 😂😭Damn Michael

This will never happen again. 💔🐐

No other musician will ever do what he did. He had a great gift that inspired many people.

“if you can’t feed your baby, then don’t have a baby. and don’t think maybe, if you can’t feed your baby!” such a legendary verse😂mike didn’t lie there!

38 years after and this beat is still insane...!

MJ and Quincy Jones were one of the best musical teams since the beginning of time. The production quality on this track is on another level. The instrumentals and background vocals come across crisp and clear, it’s got simplicity and complexity. It’s funky but also dreamy. They had such a clear vision and executed. Production quality has rarely gotten close to this level since!

This man songs never get old

To be honest, I think the lyrics in this song are very underrated. It speaks about people starting rumors with no apparent reason, just for the sake of starting something. It shows the pressure that scrutiny can lay upon you. ''You're a vegetable'' because they'll get you and eat you with their stories and rumours. In the end, what matters is that you know yourself (''I know I am someone, and let the truth unfurl'') and that's enough for you to believe in yourself (''yes I believe in me, so you believe in you''). There are people that say that the lyrics in this song are non-sensical and/or silly, I find them to be very insightful and deep tbh. This song is one of my favourite Michael Jackson songs ever.

None of Michael Jacksons songs will ever get old.

Never really appreciated this amazing song until I heard it daily playing GTA Vice City 20 years ago. And now it’s my favorite MJ song up there with PYT. RIP 🐐

This song is a spiritual event. Unmatched.

the Ma-ma-se, ma-ma-sa, ma-ma-ko-ssa is pure orgasmic , one of the best outros of all time

STILL LISTENING 🎧 2024+ BEAUTIFUL SONG BROTHER MICHAEL JACKSON 🕺🏾🎤🕺🏾🕺🏾🕺🏾🕺🏾🕺🏾🎤💯💋

King MJ Forever and EVER !!! Even 100 years later 👑

The King Of Pop The King Of Music The King Of Dance The King Of Movies The King Of The World

Rip king of pop

no matter what time or day it is, there’ll always be someone listening to micheal jackson

"If you can't feed your baby, then don't have a baby" wise words Mike. 😂😊❤❤

Michael Jackson will always be the King Of Pop

If you’re on a MJ marathon, I appreciate and respect you ❤️💯💯

What a song! What a production. Quincy Jones and MJ were too good, evergreen song.

Nearly 40 years later this song is still a Masterpiece

Wish you were here guiding us thru the current darkness

Micheal Jackson is the emperor of pop

It’s 2024 Michael and we love and we still miss you. The king of music ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Most important words ever: "Lift your head up high and scream out to the world. I know I am someone, and let the truth unfurl. No one can hurt you now because you know what's true. Yes, I believe in me, so do believe in you."

Seeing a Michael Jackson notification at the 3:00 A.m of the morning... That send my chills over all the body and I’m talking about the good ones 💖🎼

The real king pop!

Damn, I feel like the 80’s was something special and unique…😮😮, if only 2023 kept making more new songs like from the 80’s and 90’s

💙👑The King Of Pop👑💙

Vocals originally recorded in 1978, yet it sounds clearer than ever! It's like no time at all has passed when Micheal starts singing! MJ, Swedien and Jones are still many decades ahead of their time.

MJ eternal King of POP ... MISS YOU bro

No artist can ever touch Michael Jackson level of talent..peace

Even in the year 3000 Michael will still be the best

The god of music for life

"Lift your head up high, and scream out to the world, I know I am someone, and let the truth unfold, No one can hurt you now, because you know it's true, Yes, I believe in me, so you believe in you" - Immortal words from the Michael Jackson

Sabemos que eres inocente ,siempre has sido una estrella , te amamos Michael ❤️❤️✨✨

MICHAEL JACKSON IS ALIVE IN OUR HEARTS, HE WILL NEVER BE FORGET.

He did this one for the culture… you can hear the early hip hop influences and inflections on his delivery heavy

Wanna Be Startin' Somethin' was a great song written and composed by Michael Jackson aka the King of Pop who had a God given talent and bigger than Billy Ocean. First of all he's not a whacko Jacko he just a normal regular human being like all of us so put some respect on his name for once please!

Miss him so much. He was the best 🌈💙💚💛🧡❤️🌈

These recording sessions had to be so lit back in the day

Imagine having waited for 'the new Michael Jackson album' and already expecting quality, but then hearing this as an opening track. Total destruction. Absolute monster track. Next level. Mind blown. Still today. What a bomb.

God. I remember I used to listen to the Thriller album on my way to piano lessons as a kid in 1983. I couldn't WAIT to hear this song, it's completely awesome! I used to ask my dad to turn it up full blast on the car stereo. I know, sounds like I was privileged, I wasn't. We were working class but my mum wanted me to develop a love for music. It worked. Love MJ!!!

Man there is a whole generation that was never even around when he was alive. I hope they still discover and keep his music alive

I miss him 😢

He was truly the best.😢

There will never be another Michael Jackson he was truly the best.😊

I'm very nervous for a contest but this song chills me out💕 rest in peace dear michael💕

OMG my baby!! 😭😭😭 miss him a lot , love you Michael ♥️♥️♥️

Who's here in 2024

Sickest song!!! Talent that you can’t find nowadays!!!

This song is proof he was at least 40 years ahead of his time.

The production on this whole album is through the roof. It sounds fantastic through headphones.

Michael Jackson is the best singer ever!🎉🎉🎉

He still remains a legend

*Y O U R E A V E G E T A B L E*

This is the guy who could move the world with his music and remember he didn't have RU-vid, Tiktok, Instagram, Facebook or snapchat. Imagine how many followers he would have had if these platforms were present. His fame is nothing compared to any artists of this age.

#1 Song of ALL TIME!!!! Lawwwd🔥🔥🔥🔥🫶🏽❤️❤️❤️

Michael Jackson, without equal the best. Beautiful

"if you wanna make the world a better place, take a look at yourself and make a change."

Imagine being an artist in 1983, pressing play on this album and this the first thing you hear 🥹. Pack the decade up 🏌🏾‍♂️

If there was a music video for this, it would reach 200 Million views to 2 billion views.

WITH A CHORUS OF AFRICAN REJOICE -- DEEP!!!!

its the sickest beat ever

There's so much energy in this chorus that I can't stop singing and screaming, I feel invincible when I hear it!

Unreal…I seen the Jackson’s 1980 and solo MJ 1987🤷🏾‍♂️🎤🎤🎤🤷🏾‍♂️Toooooooooo Mean…The Energy they/he gave and the crowd…5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Mike was that guy

A birthday party wasn't complete without this song

The best singer of all time ❤️❤️❤️

Dose anyone agree that MJ is the best singer

Production of this song is insane.

"In the world of pop music, there is Michael Jackson and there is everybody else.” - The New York Times, January 1984.

I recently had a 2 year battle with Cancer. My treatment is finished for now. I am a new person, different. But if there's one thing i learnt, its to be appreciative of life and just go after what I want and care for. This song reflects my new chapter in life, lets go. Thank you universe for giving us this man in our lives, his energy lives in his music and us...

michael jackson has the best songs that even my school plays them😂🤎

THE KING OF POP

ERES INOCENTE Y TE AMAMOS :'' I LOVE YOU MICHAEL

this is an insane way to start an album. mike was tryna prove something
