Now they're trying to smear Jermaine? I might believe this is it were anyone BUT Jermaine, but it's just laughable. Since "Word To The Badd" (which was to MJ's "face, not behind his back) there's nobody been more faithful to the Jacksons than Jermaine. Family is like a religion to him. People clown him for being such an unshakable Jackson family defender.

Jermaine seems to be many things, but a sneak doesn't seem to be one. If this book shit is true, he's been one great actor over the years!

Oh god this funeral is the final goodbye. If people are killing themselves I hope things don't get out of hand tommorrow.

Shoot, I've already had a couple of requests for a "best of" CD! I'm like, if you were so much of a damn fan, you should already have at least something like that, if not a full album!

Needless to say, they're still waiting for it.

Timmy84 said:

Yes, I remember she said "this is lovely" when they were putting the makeup on around her mouth. LOL. Then the chick in the next scream said, "*screams* wait until my teeth are in! Ahahaaa!" .. LMAO

I thought they were going to bury Michael tonight. Guess not, it was just a private viewing of his body. His body is still at Forest Lawn. I wouldnt be surprised if they buried him in the we hours of the night

My friend who's a fan only had Thriller and HIStory so I made him a special 4CD set yesterday just as friendly gesture

Jermaine was jealous of Michael's career.
They didn't always see eye to eye
Proof is in the pudding
None of his siblings are
in his will to care for
his children. That is a
sign they were feuding.

Chic35 said:

Check out that "always to please daddy" line...

The family is at Forest Lawn Memorial-Park right now for viewing

this is bad real bad michael jackson, now I'm mad real mad jo jackson.

Disgusting! I know


Btw- Latoya just left.

Timmy84 said:

I wonder if Michael died still feeling like he never lived up to
his Daddy's standards? If his dad is the reason he was colorstruck
I am curious as to why he married Katherine because she is not
light bright and damn near white.

bboy87 said:

I hear you dude. I'm just tired of everybody jumping on the bandwagon, now wanting to hear some of his music and wanting me to burn them DVDs or CDs. And they were some of the ones who "wanted to cry" when they first heard of his death. I'm like, if you're that effected by it (as we all were and even moreso), you should already own a lot of his music! Maybe I should just look at it as helping to spread his legacy even further.

Don't mind me, just venting....

I believe they've stopped the feed now, thankfully. Either that, or its not on their front page anymore.

Countthedays said:

That's an extreme interpretation. The only "pudding" that's been seen for 20 years is Jermaine being THE family spokesman and the most adamant supporter of his ENTIRE family (incl. and esp. MJ).

Families don't always get along and sometimes there's jealousy, famous or not...but this book story is way out there. I could believe it if it were LaToya or someone else, but Jermaine NOPE. This guy's life was fucked up by his estrangement issues w/ his entire family and he's behaved like a man obsessed by staying in their good books. Unless I see something more reliable than the NY Daily News, I'll defend him on this issue.

Timmy84 said:

That is so perfect and so f'n funny!

Chic35 said:

I'm going down baby
You're talkin' Morphine

Damn how prophetic!
Michael knew he had
a serious MONKEY on
his back!

Chic35 said:

Katherine was beautiful when she was young and she was docile. Just the kind of woamn a man like Jo would want. I think his father and maybe a couple other people played a big role in making him feel unattractive and hesitant about growing up.

and lemme just say FUCK DEBBIE ROWE. anybody who sells children ithen comes back years later to claim them cuz they might be worth some money is lower than dust.

Why are people so upset that others are now getting interested in MJ? How illogical. MJ's music hasn't been played much on radio in 10+ years, his vids not much seen, and his name has been tarred in the mainstream media for just as long, but y'all complain that people are "jumping on the bandwagon"?

I think it's a great thing that people are now getting interested (or as in my case REinterested) in him. I have a funny feeling that some who are complaining about bandwagons weren't even around during the height of MJ's fame.

Michael lived it up!
To be in financial ruin

Countthedays said:

he loved to shop... I think it was an addiction.

DesireeNevermind said:

Both Katherine and Joe were VERY attractive in their youth. I never got the impression at all that Joe was colorstruck. Not that it matters, but Katherine's darker than Joe.

I think MJ's hangups about his looks mostly came from a combo of family teasing and the intense scrunity of fans. Fans will say the most unbelivable and socially unacceptable shit to celebs. I'm amazed at how some behave towards someone they alledgely "love".

As for the family teasing, MJ was apart of it too. After all, he used to call Janet "dunk" short for donkey referring to her weight when she was a kid. So he gave as good as he got, methinks.

brooksie said:

it is a great thing people are interested in his ART again. the problem with most of those people is they were no where to be seen before now except to bad mouth and laugh at the man. I know this to be true from the people I've seen bumping his tracks over the past week. I was made fun of in school for being as outspoken about my love for MJ music, no one's laughing at me now because they all "love" him

and if some of us weren't around when Mike was in his hey day it's no fault of our own if we weren't even born but atleast we didn't wait for him to be dead to grab hold of his music and recognise his genius. I was only 5 or 6 when the molestation allegations first started and i grew up THRU IT and stuck with him no matter what people thought of me.

Well, apparently, with the huge boost in sales, revenues in assets AND the possible release of vault material, Michael's attorney said the future income far outweighs the debt

Read More: Michael Jackson

The King of Pop is dead, so who’s the new heir to the throne?

For me, the question is blasphemous to ponder. There’s something to be said for just letting the man rest.

But being a musician myself, the conversation is inevitable among my peers.

It’s obvious that Michael was a one of a kind artist. But for every iconic musician, there’s someone primed to step into the void. You hear that Lady Gaga’s the new Madonna, or Beyonce’s the next Diana Ross. These artists are performing in a different context than their predecessors, but they have that star power that could propel them to legendary status.

To follow in Micheal Jackson’s stead, even the basic requirements on the application are daunting.

You have to be a writer-performer who can sing in the rafters, move with that magical juju, and have worldwide fans singing along to lyrics that they may not even understand. I mean, does anyone know what Shamon means?

There are some young pop stars my generation’s grown up with who seem to have elements of this package.

Usher Raymond was the first of the solo R&B pop acts who was just as talented singing as he was dancing.

Usher emerged young enough to appeal to teenagers, and grow up with those fans as they watched him mature. As we watched Usher develop physically, his music and persona had a tasteful sexual overtone reminiscent of Marvin Gaye.

That’s great to sell out a show full of women. But I think Michael Jackson partly achieved his universal adoration by not pandering to oversexed fans. Even when Michael was trying to be sexual…grabbing his crotch or singing songs like the Way You Make Me Feel…it felt kinda weird. And Michael was never taking off his shirt or humping chairs. His personality seemed to keep him from going all the way there, but that worked out to his advantage, because he became the sensitive dude who could cry onstage. Because Michael’s career spanned 40 years, his hits, though complex and edgy, were accessible to the whole family.

And then there’s JT – Justin Timberlake. His first solo outing seemed like a straight up Michael Jackson tribute album. Falsetto peaks, on top of Neptunes and Timbaland-produced ballads. He’s a child star whose talent let him step away from his group NSync, to sell out huge shows and achieve the closest dance prowess to Michael’s that any Mousketeer could hope for.

But Justin is missing the persona. He’s concentrating on being that artist who shows up for tongue-in-cheek cameos on SNL, that down home, have-a-drink with you type of dude. Michael Jackson projected an image that wasn’t near as accessible as his music – almost like if you touch him, you’d scream and pass out.

Chris Brown has the moves, the charm, and mild pop success, but after the Rihanna story broke, it showed that a lot of fans really didn’t like him enough for him to withstand a personal scandal. Of course, Micheal’s behavior in his later years was a turnoff for many fans, but the music was so powerful that many of us continued to embrace him with the unconditional love of family.

It’s a conversation I have with all my peers. Today’s music is good, but there’s something empty about it. Songs are so fly by night that I can’t think of a song that will stand the test of time the way Thriller did.

In part, there’s no heir to the throne because the palace has changed. The very industry of pop feels manufactured and dull. It’s rare to find solid gold music, dense with soul and bejeweled with originality.

So as we lay the King of Pop to rest, I’m both comforted and disappointed to admit, there’s no one in sight who’s even close to donning the crown.
