Tell me once again who's bad

The funny post about Jackson vs. Jesus made me think again about my perception of Michael, about how I see him human and unhuman at the same time. I even left a quite lengthy comment there about parallels with Jesus that I see (if you are religious, you probably don't want to read it ( Read more... )

I really think Michael was, indeed an angel. My sister and I were up really late last night, trying to at least find ONE flaw about him, and I think that his only flaw was that, he was too nice, and TOO giving.
I seriously can't think of ANYTHING that he did wrong...y'know?

Gurl, Michael wasn't an angel. You are forgetting that he was also a businessman, and you can't achieve the things he achieved by being kind 100% of the time. He most likely did some fucked up things with the help of others, but he had a great team to hide them. Notice all the rumors about him was based on his personality, not business ethics.

No one is perfect, definitely in the entertainment business.

Yeah, I suppose, but he also worked hard and was really creative and talented. And maybe lucky too. And business doesn't necessary mean a dirty game. If he did play unfair, I'd like some examples.

The one with Jermaine will do (though I still admire him for how he handled that conflict - at least according to the Jermain's girlfriend's version of the story).

His talent and creativity did help him, of course. However, the music business is a fickle place to be, so you have to be a tough businessman to have had a long career like Michael had.

I'm sorry that it took me so long to answer, but I wasn't getting notifications :(

People say that Jermaine told Michael that he was working on a new album with top producers and told Michael who the producers were, I don't remember the producers' names but Babyface was one of them, so Michael called the producers and asked them to work with him, of course they said yes, and pushed Jermaine's album aside, and the later Michael decided not to use any of the tracks they have done.
Jermaine was pissed and felt that Michael had stabbed him in the back, apparently he wrote a diss song to Michael because of this incident.

The diss song is Word to the badd.

and you're welcome bb <3 I hope you understand my english :)
