I also admitted to being wrong about his writing credits on Invincible... honestly the album sucked, you being a HUGE fan of his enjoyed it and that's wonderful. Me being a fan of GOOD Michael Jackson songs, thought it was an insult and a waste of vital resources. I'm a firm believer of the phrase... if it smells like ****, it's probably ****. I gave Michael the benefit of the doubt back in 1993, he very well may be innocent but I, personally, think he very well may be guilty.
I am a huge fan and also a fan of "good michael jackson music" but I'm realistic and even admited that Invincible was his weakest album BUT that being said their were some "descent" tracks on there that were underrated. Just because its not Michael Jackson's BEST doesn't mean the ENTIRE album sucked because the entire album did not suck..... But OVERALL that mess was far from what Michael is known for and is capable of doing which I do agree.

You can feel however you want to feel about MJ thats ur opinion. I just can't stand people who judge people they don't even know this isn't towards you just in general. The man was proven innocent in a court of law but hey you can feel how you want to feel but it doesn' t change he was found innocent and that he IS innocent.

He got off and has his freedom... he will NEVER shed his possible molester cloak as long as he lives, 10+ years of being accused of touching kids kind of does that to a person of his stature.

Your right nobody cares about the erotica book crap, you brought it up, I was just challenging it. Michael has put out plenty of good music BEFORE Invincible the thing about MJ is his controversial life style, scandles,persona, rumors etc has overshadowed his music. Your right, Michael will always have the child scandal smeared on his image no matter how good the music he makes is but thats obvious... Over the last 20 years of his career his image and music career has been full of speculation/ controversy so that isn't new BUT Michael has still been successful through it all.
