I saw someone on twitter (https://x.com/tlngrnd/status/2058689747615187199) lamenting that most of the coverage of Michael Jackson was about stupid shit instead of recognising he's a once in a lifetime musical genius and talking about his creative process with musicExactly how much do we know about his creative process? the most i know is that he beatboxes his songs, and says he receives them from God, but maybe other anons know more
>>130421403https://variety.com/2025/music/news/michael-jackson-book-excerpt-dan-beck-they-dont-care-about-us-1236557437/ I told [my boss, Epic Records chairman] Dave [Glew] that somebody needed to speak to Michael and [Michael’s co-manager] Sandy [Gallin]. Sandy argued that Michael spoke as an empathetic voice of the oppressed. “He’s saying stop labeling people, stop degrading people, stop calling them names. The song is about not being prejudiced. To take two lines out of context is unfair.” We had three phone calls with Michael regarding the situation, and his answer was repetitive and straight to the point. “This is the media,” he complained. “I would never be racist or antisemitic.” We continued to explain that it wasn’t about him. It was about the people who those words hurt, no matter the context in which they were used.He couldn’t grasp how the media could misunderstand his intentions. Instead, he saw a conspiracy against him. “People know I would never mean that!” he protested to me directly over the next few days. His voice was firm and steadfast: raised, but in control, yet he was clearly on the defense. His repeated response of “Everybody knows me. They know I don’t hate people” stood in stubborn defiance.The meeting began with Michael protesting, “Everybody knows I’m not prejudiced!” In his mind, he had become the Jew in the song. It was he who was oppressed. It was he who spoke for the others. He wouldn’t hurt anyone. He still seemed bewildered that anyone could think otherwise.
>>130421142>he's a once in a lifetime musical geniusThe only musical genius in that family is Janet. Michael was just the black Donny Osmond.

>>130421142>He wouldn’t hurt anyone.His many victims may disagree.
He was a hack plagiarist who stole his biggest hits, even according to Quincy Jones. Plus he stuck his tongue in 10 year old boys' bootyholes.
