school me on michael jackson

[MVike28]

there are a bunch of artists i listened to because of my parents. dude is 20 so his mom at least gotta be 32 you telling me you aint still spinning classic shyt like MJ, whitney, etc every now and again? i don't know, i'm big on a lot of music from before my time due to my pops and the fact my oldest brother is a dj and 12 years older than me....i just can't imagine not knowing songs by patti labelle, the four tops, temptations, etc. mj, whitney, mariah, etc. are those artists to his generation

If you're black and don't know the bolded then your parents failed you musically.

Bad start right chea.

play this album. It's CALLED Destiny, these ninjas giving late watered down MJ. Check this song and album out.

The Jacksons - Destiny:

I love this song, and i immediately recognized it when David Banner sampled it for Cadillacs on 22's back in the day.

breh, a cat on here had no clue when i told him tinashe's "how many times" was a straight janet jackson rip of "funny how time flies"...i'm like, that wasn't even an album cut, it's one of her bigger songs

this is about to be sad when the musical foundation of a generation starts with 50 cent...or worse, lil wayne

@Indica Don't mind these cats. It's never too late to dive into superb music. It's difficult to explain just how influential Michael Jackson was, growing up as a kid in the 80s. Luckily he left behind an incredible catalogue.

I grew up loving the shyt out of this record. Still love it.



Never mind that the beat is fukking incredible. The way dude multi-layered his voice when repeating "leave me alone"...

no im not spinning mj or whitney houston. i know one whitney houston song. by the time i was 5 years old and could actually remember anything whitney was a crackhead expecting me to know these motherfukkers. 50 cent is my michael jackson. do you know how big he was when i was a kid. aint no kids my age playing michael jackson.

My 6 year old daughter knows at least 10 MJ songs. Your grown rusty ass 20 yr old ass has no excuse.

School ya self punk

i know like 3 mj songs too. annie are you okay. the one where he turns into a cat in that video. and the abc one with jackson 5.

the "you" in my quote clearly wasn't referring to you, i'm referring to people 10+ years older than you, as in your mom (and the poster i was replying to...i assume).

like i said, she at least gotta be 32 (i'm hoping she's older than that), and if so, that's a couple years older than me and all those artist still get spins from me, how she didn't play quality music around you? all she played around you was rap? she a ratchet?

at least 90% of everybody born in 95 doesn't know much about Michael Jackson.


Give the OP props for doing his research

i was born in 95. by the time i knew who michael jackson was he was white and a paedophile. im not saying hes a paedophile but thats all i knew because the news told me he was a pedo.

what albums do i need to listen to first? why was he so popular?

The powers that be did their job
