He made his feelings clear about MJ in the song word to the badd. I'm not talking about the soft white-washed version that made it to the album. I'm talking about the version with the original lyrics that was only heard as a bootleg. You will never find a copy of it now. You can find the lyrics on line, though.

do you have a link to the lyrics online?

MJ 60 minutes interview

"It's the most autobiographical song I've ever written. It's called, "Childhood." They should listen to it. That's the one they really should listen to."

During the trial

"There is a conspiracy" and "just remember me in Thriller".

"Just remember me in Thriller" says it all....

The whole thing just makes me angry and sad.

Can you explain what you're talking about?

Jermaine Jackson - Word to the badd (Lyrics to the unreleased version)

[intro]
What up yo, word to the badd (7 times)

Reconstructed
Been abducted
Don't know who you are
Think they love you
They don't know you
Lonely superstar
You never think about who you love
You only think about number one
You forget about where you started from
You only care about what you want
Don't care about how it's done
You only think about you, your throne
Be it right or be it wrong

It ain't about your world
It ain't about the things you do
If you don't care, I don't care
'Cause you keep thinkin' 'bout you
It ain't about you takin' my pie
You been takin' for a long time
If you don't care, I don't care
If you keep
Well I ain't thinkin' 'bout you

What up you, word to the badd (3 times)

Once you were made
You changed your shade
Was your color wrong
Could not turn back
It's a known fact
You were too far gone
You know I try to be there for you
Like a brother I care for you
It didn't matter you always play me off
You only care about what you want
And you don't care about how it's done
You only think about you, your throne
Be it right or be it wrong

It ain't about your world
It ain't about the things you do
If you don't care, I don't care
'Cause you keep thinkin' 'bout you
It ain't about you takin' my pie
You been takin' for a long time
If you don't care, I don't care
If you keep

It ain't about your world
It ain't about the things you do
If you don't care, I don't care
'Cause you keep thinkin' 'bout you
It ain't about you takin' my pie
You been takin' for a long time
If you don't care, I don't care
If you keep
Well I ain't thinkin' 'bout you

No no no, I ain't thinkin' 'bout you
No no
What up yo, word to the badd (3 times)

Thinkin' about the pie that you've been takin' from me
From a brother to another brother, hard to believe
Lost and don't know it, yet you still show it
Givin' seems to be harder than it is to receive
The glass has gotten shady, time to make it clearer
Clean it up and let's start with the man in the mirror
It's sad Mr. Badd, ain't no mistakin' it
Get a grip, you're not far from breakin' it

Thinkin' about the time when we used to be close
It shouldn't be a past tense 'cause nobody knows
What the future may hold, what tomorrow might bring
It's not guaranteed that you'll be spreadin' a wing
But meanwhile, I'll continue to smile
'Cause in the back of my head I know You're still a child
Consider you a man well that may never be
Unless the day comes when you'll have to lean on me !

Gone too far
Ya better turn back
I know who you are
You know where I'm at
Sad but it's true
From me to you
Pick up the phone
Don't be alone
Step off the throne
Come back home

It ain't about your world
It ain't about the things you do
If you don't care, I don't care
'Cause you keep thinkin' 'bout you
It ain't about you takin' my pie
You been takin' for a long time
If you don't care, I don't care
If you keep

It ain't about your world
It ain't about the things you do
If you don't care, I don't care
'Cause you keep thinkin' 'bout you
It ain't about you takin' my pie
You been takin' for a long time
If you don't care, I don't care
If you keep
Well I ain't thinkin' 'bout you

Dave Chappele metioned that he's muslim on the Inside Actors studio show and then he said - "but I don't practice it the way I'm supposed to" That's one of the reasons why he went to Africa. So I guess Dave is only muslim when he wants to be? LOL

Yeah, he was really lying when he was defending the creep.
