almost a 35 Year Career it hasn't blown up yet.


It kinda has Maxxx...
do folks still talk about Him? do they still Buy His Albums? Do His TV Appearences still generate alot of Debate? is He still Emulated&Influential over this Era of Some Acts you see? if you answer yes than it hasn't fully happened.Yes MJ has brought alot of BS on Himself&He has to take the blame for alot of it,but at the same time if the cat wasn't a Bankable Name than the Powers that Be wouldn't still care.20 Years ago was "thriller"&20 Years later folks are still talking about the Cat so He has done something right.all He needs to do is drop a Knock Out Album&the Focus will be where it matters most.


Of course people talk about him... the sentences begin & end w/ the word "freak" which is not a good thing, don't you agree? At some point you have to ask what's more important - being "bankable" or being a respectable human being/father/artist. He can't sheild his kids from all this shit forever. And while I don't necessarily worry about the lives they'll lead, I do think the cloud they're gonna live under (via their "father's" legacy) is tainted enough as it is...

It seems like he craves ANY kind of publicity, doesn't matter how overwhelmingly negative or bizarre. He could do a special every week & of course people would watch b/c @ this point his public image is beyond repair, it's like a train wreck on repeat. And while watching a train wreck is irresistable & intriguing, it's also fucking tragic...

People still Buy His Records.



he sells fewer and fewer records every time he puts one out, and the only time he gets a spike in sales is when he puts his own little personal freakshow on parade on television. and which albums sell? Thriller. and Off The Wall, and Bad. the 3 that have always sold. how you think this parlays into him being some huge musical and artistic mover and shaker in 2003 is beyond belief.

ACTUALLY, HIStory and Dangerous have also re-entered the charts over here, and what's this "fewer and fewer" about? Invincible was the 10th biggest seller of 2001 and only had 2 months worth of sales - undoubtedly the latest release of the rest of the year end chart. Sales are down big time in the industry. It's not really possible for anyone, even Eminem, to emulate the success of HIStory, letalone Bad Dangerous, and Thriller has been out of the question for everyone who came along before and since.

Yeah, right. MJ, the world's most famous NAMBLA member, seems to be somewhat starved for attention.
You know he had to be pissed when Joe Millionaire beat him in the ratings.
Well, let's all watch as the big, bad, media continues to exploit poor, helpless Michael Jackson. With Michael Jackson's permission and blessing, of course.

Nobody said he couldn't sell a record, that's not the point. My question is how far will he take the quest to continuously humiliate himself publicly? What's the cost of that to MJ the human being, not the singer moving units. I'm talking about his sense of inner peace (if there's any to be had), not his paper...
heart prince I never met you, but I LOVE you & I will forever!! Thank you for being YOU - my little Princey, the best to EVER do it prince heart

Thankyou so much for your perfect answer. Don't bother with Mistermaxx, please...he calls people tackywacky!!! wtf?!! Sure Mj can sell, but he ain't getting no respect. His music gets exposed through these shows in one way or another, but besides his PAST music, people think he's a trip and needs a real good hug or some therapy. I applaud you Shygirl and Locoarts( and I appologize for my rude comments to Shygirl if you can remember them!!)
Mj has not been able to put out a 'tight'album.
Mj acts like a child and needs pity.
and now he's trying to OVEREXPOSE himself, as Ellie put it out in another post.

Mistermaxxx, you keep saying his legacy will never be forgotten, he has a lot of talent, etc., but he ain't walking away with respect, with dignity nor with praise.

that is one of the worst Responses Known to Man.who cares with what you said? you don't have a 35 Year Career&still do as well as Him&Be forgotten.Shygirl&Locarts are MJ's Biggest Fans.always the same folks gotta Speak on the Man&always know everything He is doing&whatnot.Calhoun as well knows they spend too much MJ Watching.all He needs is a tight album.
