Hey Everyone.
I hope you all are having a lovely June!
I have decided to write about one of my favorite movies Micheal, starring Jaafar Jackson, Colmon Domingo, Nia Long, Juliano Valdi and a whole amazing cast of people!
The movie starts off with the year 1966 Steel Worker Joesph Jackson assembles his boys Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, Marlon, and Micheal into the band the Jackson 5 with Micheal on lead vocals.
They have months of grueling rehearsals with one of the rehearsals Michael gets whooped and leaves the room in tears and hides in the bathroom to get some composure and get himself together.
He and his brothers sing really well together, the Jackson 5 perform at different gigs and the crowd is really drawn to and loving Micheal.
They love his personality and his kind and caring heart and the way he sings, how smooth and soft his voice is one day Suzanne De Passe discovers them in the year 1968, and something exciting happens to them they get signed with Mo-Town a year later.
The next thing they know their albums are really topping the charts and they are becoming more and more popular and known in the world, they sell out concerts across the US, allowing them to move from a small house in Gary, Indiana to a mansion in Encino, California in 1971, and the MoTown Founder Barry Gordon thinks Micheal would do incredible as a solo artist.
Barry really takes his time with Micheal and shows him what he does in the studio and what all the buttons on the music board does and the different sounds they can make and that he can talk to Barry anytime he needs, Barry becomes a really good friend to Michael and like a mentor.
Later in Micheals Grownup Years he signs with Epic Records for his first Solo Album as an Adult. Off the Wall, and Quincy Jones is producing his album.
Micheal has gotten a lot of success with his solo career, his career is held back by Joesph because he believes he is responsible for his kid's fortunes and what they do with their life and career.
Micheal also loves animals he told his mom when he was a little boy that he feels like animals understand him better than humans because they don't know him as a celebrity or as Micheal Jackson, they just see a person who is loving and kind and caring and loves animals.
He gets an Alpaca and a few other animals while he is growing up, unfortunately Micheal is forced to continue touring with his brothers on the triumph tour because Joesph won't let him go, he is feeling insecure about the way he looks because Joe would give all kinds of comments about his nose and how he looks.
Micheal would really listen to those comments and think that he really does look like what Joe is saying he looks like, he decides to get a rhinoplasty to make his nose smaller and he develops vitiligo, he later has an argument with Joesph about how he is wanting to go solo and decides to go out for a while and have sometime for himself and get a different change of scenery.
He takes advice from his bodyguard and close friend Bill Bray who tells him to get his music out and believe in himself, he creates his own path, later he is in a music meeting and he hires John Branca as his attorney and tells him to fire Joesph by fax, and to do quickly and fast.
After watching a news report on the Crips-Bloods gang war, he hires real members of both gangs to appear in his music video for Beat it.
That song is off the chain Thriller breaks World-Wide sale records while Micheal delivers a Ground-breaking performance of Billie Jean Motown 25, Micheal and Branca head to New York to ask The CBS Records President Walter Yetnikoff, to have MTV play Micheal's Music Videos, despite the network not playing videos by Black Artists, MTV agrees to give him Airtime after Yetnikoff threatens to pull the CBS Records catalog out of the network, Micheal is enjoying his success, Joesph has a meeting with the boxing promoter Don King and proposes the 1984 Victory Tour to reunite his sons.
King offers Joesph a Pepsi-Co sponsorship deal only if Micheal tours with the Jacksons, Micheal objects he has to go anyway while they are rehearsing, a spark from the pyrotechnics sets Micheal's hair on fireresulting in third-degree burns and nerve damage.
He and Branca sue PepsiCO for damages, with the settlement proceeds going to the Burn Center where he was being treated, In the hospital Micheal meets with other patients as he thinks about taking part in the Victory Tour Once Micheal recovers he decides to go on the tour with his brothers.
You will have to see the movie to find out what happens next, I decided to write about this movie because I am a big fan of Michael Jackson the King of Pop, I have liked him as long as I can remember.
He really left a mark and print on the world and made so many amazing and incredible songs, He really accomplished a lot for the time he was here in the world.
He was loved by so many and was really a kind caring, amazing person even though he didn't have much of a childhood he found ways to recreate it and do different things to make himself happy, and keep moving forward.
And he would also say encouraging things to himself different Mantras to lift himself up and to feel positive and good about himself like you are Beautiful, You are Gorgeous, You are the Greatest, If God is for me, who can be against me!
I like Micheal because he reminds me of myself with how big his heart is and how empathetic he is to people, and how loving, kind, caring, and how much he loves to dance and sing!
Micheal was really special and I am so glad I got to know the king of Pop and his music, and enjoy him while he was here on earth!
He also was an amazing father he really loved his kids and did everything to ensure their safety and make sure they are ok and good and he was always by their side, and always made sure to seize the moments with them whenever he could.
He wanted his kids to know he loved them and would do anything for them no matter what and he wanted to know that they are always going to be safe and good whenever they go out somewhere or attend something because he loves and cares for them very much!
I also loved his relationship with his sister Janet Jackson, you can tell they had an amazing relationship and loved each other so much and happy to be brother and sister!
My favorite song with Janet is the one she did with Micheal, Scream that is a very dynamic song, Micheal and Janet put their hearts and all they had into the song! And in the video there is some dancing involved, Micheal and Janet really do an incredible job!
I love a lot of Micheal Jackson songs, One of my favorites is Remember the time, It has amazing rhythm and really gets you moving and dancing and will leave you with a smile on your face.
I also love PYT it makes me smile everytime I hear it, especially when he says Repeat after Me!
That is a fun chorus line and it will have you singing along! I also love the song Bad and Black or white those songs really get me going when I hear it!
I also love the way you make me feel, and who is it? I also like You Rock My World! He has so many different songs, once you hear one of them you will be hooked right away and want to hear him sing all the time!
My favorite scene from the movie, is his interaction with the animals and how real it is, He really loves and has a heart for them, It portrays through the movie, I also like how much he loves Disney and how much he loves to read that is something I enjoy also!
Also his nephew Jaafar is playing him and he worked so hard and put his heart and soul into playing his Uncle Micheal, He plays him so well that you think it is Actually Micheal in some parts, and it's a little hard to tell if it is Micheal Or Jaafar. He loved playing his Uncle.
You can tell how much he enjoyed playing his Uncle Micheal and how much he loved and cared for his Uncle and wanting to honor him and making him Proud!
I believe if Micheal was still here and saw the movie, He would be so happy and proud of his nephew and the outstanding job he did playing him, just a little tip once you see Micheal and hear the songs you may find it hard to Stay Quiet, I sang the whole time, I couldn't help myself I just love Micheal Jackson! Go and see Micheal You will absolutely love it, It is like attending a Micheal Jackson concert, It is so much fun and like a big Party!
I recommend this movie to anyone who wants to see a great movie!
