Like isaid in previous posts,MJ doodles with the Piano so that's y u saw the footage on his little video collection,but u did'nt see him play drums or guitar did u? That's bcuz he does'nt. And just bcuz he credits his damn self on his album don't mean a thing. Alot of artist take credit 4shit that they did'nt do. And MJ has always been about the over HYPE! He is the king of it! Know i am a hard core P fan who while growing up was a hardcore MJ fan, so i'm not on any crusade 2 diss MJ. I'm just tryin 2 enlighten u 2tha TRUTH. Look playa MJ learned the Moonwalk from Jeffery Daniels of Shalamar. Him and MJ was associates and moderately close bcuz of thier mutual respect 4 1anothers moves. J. Daniels has said that MJ does'nt play instruments but uses his voice like an instrument. JD said that MJ plays a little Piano but that's it!...All of these people that i've mentioned have no reason 2 lie. Now the reason that the subject of MJ and playin instruments came up is bcuz we was debating the difference between 2 of the greatest Black artist in the history of music(it was balck history month). We were in Japan gig'n and funkin up the Asians ya dig. So i'm just relaying the info 2 u playa. Now u believe what u want 2! But i won't believe MJ plays anything but Piano on a very average level! So now i am thru with this debate! "The Truth always comes out sooner or later"

u got no proof to NONE of the things u said as you got NO proof that he has credited him playing them.

If you don't belive the liner notes than I have every right to say Prince doesnt write his songs. But let's not fool our selves. Coz MJ play them and P writes those songs.

And Moonwalk aint got nothing to do with Jeffrey. There was a dance move called "Back Slide",MJ took it and perfected it and made it more like an illusion and thats how moonwalk was created. But BackSlide aint got nothing to do with Shalamar.

Check out Off The Wall album credits. He is credited for playin Percussions. It was way before he developed an ego.

And if you got Off The Wall Special Edition you can hear the home demos of Don't Stop and Workin' Day And night being played by MICHAEL and Randy.(1978)

Man just accept it. you're embarassing yourself

1st of all Jeffery Daniels and Jody Watley were dancers on SoulTrain b4 they joined Shalamar and he was rated as 1 of the best freelance dancers in the bizness! MJ learned the Moonwalk from him bcuz he did it b4 MJ on SoulTrain. MJ did add the slide that u r speaking of but he was'nt the 1st 2do the MW and JD taught him! And know u r calling me a liar sayin what i can't prove. My proof 2u 2 stay on point about MJ being credited with tappin a snare like ya do in band class.....When i say play the drums playa i mean play like sheila E plays behind the drumkit. I can play the damn Tamborines and get credited 4 playing percussion man. Just like MJ Lipsyncs half of his show he done creditsynced and fooled u but he can't fool a musician like me who's been around 2 long 2 know better. Hell even Alicia Keys played the Guitar last week on the BET awards show 2 showoff her versatility as a musician. If MJ could play those instruments(play4real!) His 46year old biggest ego in the whole wide world havin ass would have played some shit in Concert by now. PERIOD! Even if his ass just learned how 2 play last year. Now we can continue this debate over on MJ's website. PSYCHE!
