Did mike say this? :gucci:Or y’all stay making up lies after lies:comeon:
Nah it's a reason Mike didn't go back to Neverland.

But you're right he never said anything.

Some say Prince urged him to do more live shows again.

Mike hated touring...one can only assume he didn't to bring in money.

His likeness wasn't bringing in any money after that trial...his likeness was only valued at 4m when they did a value of it.

fukking Devil's tore his reputation and sanity down.

I never claimed he was broke.

His likeness wasn't earning money for a few years. The estate said that ..

"The IRS valued Jackson’s likeness and image at about $434 million, while the estate said it was only worth about $2,000 at the time he had died. The reason? Jackson struggled to rehabilitate his image amid allegations of child molestation. In fact, one of the estate’s experts estimated that in the final six months of his life Jackson only made $24 in image- and likeness-related revenue. (After further expert consultation leading up to the trial, the estate would increase its valuation to around $3 million.) "


Who knows either way he wasn't broke.

And we would've ate good off that tour but he needed his rest :wow:

I’ve said it before, the only challengers to MJs throne were The Beatles, Elvis and on contemporary level Prince and Madonna.

He brought the Beatles catalog and forced Paul McCartney to beg for more money when he had tax issues. He married Elvis daughter. He embarrassed Prince on stage with James Brown and Prince hated his sister for working with the Time during a period where he couldn’t buy a hit (post SOTT), took Madonna out and ghosted her.
Maybe it’s just because this was before my time but I don’t think Madonna belongs in the conversation with those other people at all. She’s been completely irrelevant for my entire life and I never hear any of her songs on the radio or anything like those other artists. I can’t even name any Madonna songs besides Material Girl

Motown vaults got so much shyt just sitting there collecting dust. I think the only problem with a Stevie doc is that he has it in his contract that he controls whatever is in the vaults including videos

Standing In The Shadows Of Motown just shows you corrects you are. There must be so much . Studio sessions, alternative takes. More James Jameson is cool with me. Matter of fact, all the session musicians for Motown

Im still waiting on a proper Stevie Wonder documentary. Not a “biopic”, but an actual in depth look at him
Greg phillanges said Stevie is a beast on drums...like a prodigy. I just thought he was an amazing piano player I had no idea :snoop:

Stevie needs his flowers...national treasure..Songs in the Key of life :wow:

He had a line something that went like

"Playing outside with my nappy head friends" :wow:

I could relate.
