Like many of you, I still can’t believe that it’s been a full year since the passing of the great Michael Jackson. He was such a wonderful artist who laid the foundation for many of the artists that we all know and love today. Many will try to emulate him but I think that most will fall short. Although troubled, he was an amazing talent that will live on forever. I’ll definitely be telling my children about him! I wanted to post these two songs by MJ because they’re two of my favorites. Pretty Young Thing is a fave because I remember my mom singing it to me (while poking my belly hahaha). My other favorite jam by MJ is Rock With You. There are SO many more that I love but these are my two favorites. Check out more after the break!

How many of you got a chance to check out the Michael Jackson tribute during the 2010 Grammys? I’m sure that most of you heard that you should get some 3D glasses to get the full effect of the performance. Additionally, Target announced that they would be offering the glasses free of charge so that people could watch the dedication without issue. I don’t have a complaint about the performances because they were what they were, I guess. But were my glasses the only ones that didn’t work? Target provided you with about 4 pairs of glasses on one sheet…I checked ‘em all and nann pair worked. So I decided to call Target, just to see if anyone else complained. Queue the dramatics…I was just having fun although I really am mad as hell that I didn’t see what some of YOU may have seen.
…or he needs another piss trial so his lawyers and label heads have something else better to do.
A couple months back, I posted THIS VIDEO of Michael Jackson sitting in the car, KILLIN’ R. Kelly’s hit song, Ignition. Well, apparently Universal Music is going after MJ’s estate to the tune of $3k because he never paid for the rights to use it. Word? So we have to pay for songs that we sing in the car now? I swear I’m riding mute mouth from now on…
Spike Lee has put together a montage of photos and footage of the late, great Michael Jackson to create a video for his song, This Is It. Unfortunately, I’m not able to watch it but wanted to post it up for you guys to see and post your thoughts on. I still can’t believe he’s gone. I don’t know when it’s going to become final for me. RIP, MJ!
A company called My DNA Fragrance has crafted a scent with the DNA of the late Michael Jackson and for $59.99, you can smell like a piece of him too! I don’t even want to know what DNA was used to create this fragrance and I DAMN sure don’t want to know HOW they obtained it! People will do ANYTHING to turn a profit off this man’s death!
Wow! Just when you want to X Chris Brown off the list of folks you’ll pay attention to, he goes and does this. Brown has always stated how big of a fan he was of Michael Jackson’s and I’m glad that he’s helping to keep his spirit alive through his dance moves. Quite frankly, Breezy is the only (male) entertainer I know that could pull this off so effortlessly. Love this! Would’ve been nice if he would’ve actually did the singing as well!
Major props to Sade, who always sends me the best sh*t for the site! You must watch this clip all the way through! I love how they emphasized that there won’t be ANY negativity in the film. We don’t need that!!
