any black man from the 80s-90s that flat out says "fukk rap" is kind of suspect though. i dont think MJ hates black people necessarily lol
Believe it or not liking rap music is not a prerequisite for being black
last rap MJ heard was on the Space Jam soundtrack
Wouldn't be surprised if it took them tactial operation squad effort negotiation to convince him to actually use a few rap songs for the movie

Common said Mike was playing whodini in the lockeroom when he was a ball boy for the bulls in 84 and Rod thorn told him to stop playing "that music"

he also helped fund Spike's Malcolm X movie when Hollywood gave him the 
treatment
but yeah, MJ definitely must hate black people
y'all nikkas are retarded and rehash the same old talking points in a circle jerk of an irrational need to hate and insecurity
y'all prolly really believe that bullshyt about him investing in prisons too, huh?

He said the donors were Bill Cosby, Oprah Winfrey, Michael Jordan, Earvin (Magic) Johnson, Janet Jackson, Prince, and Peggy Cooper Cafritz, founder of the Duke Ellington School of the Arts in Washington.
At a press conference at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture in Harlem, Mr. Lee said he had been "forced" to seek outside help to finish the movie after the Completion Bond Company, which assumed financial control in January, refused to approve any more expenditures. May Cost $40 Million
Mr. Lee said he was told by the bond company that the film could be no longer than 2 hours and 15 minutes and that Warner Brothers, which is producing the film and will distribute it, would not pay another "single penny" to complete it. At the time, costs on the film, initially budgeted at $28 million, had climbed to nearly $33 million. Mr. Lee has said final costs for the movie, which is now being edited, may run over $40 million.
"This is not a loan," said Mr. Lee, who declined to disclosed the specific amount donated. "They are not investing in the film. These are black folks with some money who came to the rescue of the movie. As a result, this film will be my version. Not the bond company's version, not Warner Brothers'. I will do the film the way it ought to be, and it will be over three hours."
Mr. Lee said he had used $2 million of his own $3 million salary on the project.
"When we began the film, we never had the amount of money we needed," the film maker told those gathered in the auditorium on the 67th anniversary of Malcolm X's birth. Among those attending were Betty Shabazz, Malcolm X's widow; Ms. Cafritz, and the actor Ossie Davis, a close friend of the black nationalist leader who was slain 27 years ago.
The film, which stars Denzel Washington as Malcolm X, is scheduled for release Nov. 20. Since filming began last fall, the movie has been the subject of considerable discussion and debate, in and out of Hollywood and among blacks who felt Mr. Lee would focus on the more flamboyant, crime-plagued phase of Malcolm's life instead of on his life as a Muslim leader.
Mr. Lee said he called the press conference not only to acknowledge his debt to those who helped "bail me out," but also to correct some of the rumors about the film, particularly those that said it was in trouble and not being supported by Warner Brothers.
"The trouble began when the bond company took over the financial part and we couldn't write checks anymore," said Mr. Lee. "Warner Brothers has seen the film twice and they're behind it."
Robert G. Friedman, a Warner spokesman, said by telephone from California that "We're very pleased with the film and look forward to seeing the completed version."
