KURUPTION-81:
Go and buy the book

Michael Jackson The Magic And Madness by J Randy Taraborrelli.

I picked it up today and read the 1st 50 pages its over 600 deep. Its really good so far and its up to date as it has stuff on his baby dangling incident and his martin bashir interview.

Trauma-san:
Kewl, I've read biographies on him before, very interesting stuff.  I don't know why people get so confused by him, it's pretty easy to see what's going on if you read about his father, and know that his brothers are all almost exactly like him (same voice, same physical features, etc.).  

KURUPTION-81:
i aint read to far but its gone into detail about how his dad beat him real bad. throwing him into instruments , locking him in closets, and hitting him with stuff.

Trauma-san:
Yeah, he'd make them practice long long hours, and if anybody made a mistake, he'd beat their ass.  He'd also get Michael in trouble with all his brothers, Michael was a fucking PRODIGY at this stuff, and of course wouldn't mess up very often.  When somebody else would, his dad would beat them, then say "Watch Michael, he doesn't mess up, why can't you be like him?" so, not only did Michael's brothers have a lot of resentment for him (which they were good enough to never make a big deal of), but Michael felt horrible because he felt they were getting beat because of him.

His dad also would do shit like wake them up in the middle of the night, to come perform in the living room for his friends he'd drag home from bars and shit.  

The kids didn't even call their dad "dad", they called him "Joseph".  They still do to this day, Janet & Reba included.  He used to make fun of Michael's skin when he was a teenager, he'd make fun of Michael's nose, tell him he was ugly, shit like that scars people.  I know it's a rough world, but to hear that shit from your dad? That's fucked up.

There's also a famous story of when Michael was on tour with his brothers, he was young (12 or 13) and very shy, one of his brothers bought him a prostitute for the night, and locked Michael & her in his bedroom, Michael spent the whole night running around the room trying to get away from the girl.  Some people would wonder about that, but I can completely understand what he was thinking, at 12 I probably would have ran from some crack ho too if I got locked in the room with her and she tried to rape me.  

When he was a kid, he couldn't ever go play or anything, all his time was spent practicing or recording.  People think all his friends are kids, but that's not entirely true; he surrounds himself either with children, or child stars who grew up exactly like him, they understand how he feels and they relate to each other.  Elizabeth Taylor, Macaulay Culkin, Webster, Lisa Marie Presley, etc. etc. everybody in his life is in a similar situation.

On top of all the issues he had with his physical looks, he develops (as the most famous black man alive) a skin condition that makes him look like a fucking holstein cow with spots all over his body.  That's enough to make you commit suicide.  Not only does his skin get milky white spots all over it, but everybody in the world thinks he hates being black.  How would you feel, if you were black, and not just black, but the most famous black man alive, and by most people's opinions, one of the most beautiful people alive, and through something you can't control, your skin starts turning white?  


This guy has SERIOUS shit going on in his life, people don't understand.
