  • Bestselling author and host, Tavis Smiley, returns to Ear Candy Mornings to give his take on what led to the death of Michael Jackson. In his new book, "Before You Judge Me: The Triumph and Tragedy of Michael Jackson's Last Days," he brings a powerful account of the mysterious sixteen weeks leading up to Michael Jackson's death and asks what went wrong. Moving beyond speculation, gossip, and smears, "Before You Judge Me:" is a deeply humanizing look at Jackson's final days, the chaos surrounding him, and his unmatchable legacy.

    You have to accept and be aware that the fans also have a lot of responsibility in Michael's misfortune. (They did not do it to hurt him, but in the end, they affected him terribly).
    The man could't go anywhere without being chased by a human stampede. They didn't let him live like a human who walks, breathes, eats, makes friends, goes shopping, goes to the movies, to the theater, etc., They forced him to isolate himself for his own physical security. That would drive anybody crazy and suicidal.
    The fans think that it is "normal" to chase those who admire and force them all the time to smile at them, to dance for them, to interpret the character that satisfies their whims - come on! in other words, fans think of them as their puppets. Do you think that is healthy? Is it valid to violate the privacy and space of another person to satisfy your needs? Based on what law? And then they cry when these tragedies happen, and they look for culprits to point out.
    First they must point to themselves, because they judge every inch of the person as if the artist belonged to them. They get into the artist's private life in a disgusting and destructive way. Confuse limit between admiration with fanaticism. And fanaticism to the only thing that entails is to misfortunes.
    I hope that, one day fans will be more aware of their destructive behavior towards people of the artistic medium, and learn to set healthy limits, truly respecting the artist without overwhelming them, without transgressing their personal and intimate space, and seeing them as human beings; as we all are.

      Ari Jess : Where the Fans failed him was whn #MichaelJackson was talking abt #TommyMottola & #SONY the Fans screamed so loud for him, they (literally) drowned his voice out. You could not hear #MichaelJackson at all. The video is available on RUclips.com
      I just wished they had resolve to let him speak, to LISTEN 2 what he needed to say since this happens to Artists all too often, but none bigger than #MJ was at the time.. The most Famous Entertainer on planet Earth by far. Rest in Power #TheKingMJ4Ever❤️ #RespectLove2TheScruseJackson❤️

    Michael decided he wanted to work with different producers with different music and sounds therefore he didn't work with Quincy anymore BUT WHAT KILLED MIKE WAS THE TRIAL

      better MJ visionary productions are when he was child and those in late, withour Quincy, from Dangerous to Invincible and some unpublished in albums and in a separate edition years later.
      Production with Quincy, from Off the wall to Bad, also because with Rod Temperton's songs, he was one of the embedded Motowns autors, are supreme, but the real MJ brand and for sure apreciate in a far future, are what i said. ciao

    Michael became a literal idol. If you watch the ‘92 glasgow concert you begin to realize this man was a idol, a movement, a godlike entity. Michael became an owner of the one of the networks of the industry. Michael’s organization should have grown and gone to self ownership creating his own network. The price though...

    This was a really good interview. I'm definitely going to support his work and purchase the book. Thank you for sharing.

      pfff... that was a bore... everything he just said any decent MJ fan knows.
      Except that MJ is innocent. He said he doesn't know, ha, ha, ha... trying to appeal to all audiences just to sell his book which he wrote to exploit Michael and earn money on him.

    the problem I have is how would you know what he went through in 16 weeks..Its obvious he was getting ready to do the shows. What happen in between I believe he was concerned about his own legacy. Michael was dying inside since those krass allegations. Although he was happy living for his children. His true happiness was trying to please others.

      Garfield Harrison But can you really be happy......if you're a drug addict?

    • @MrJacksonvill
      @MrJacksonvill 7 лет назад +4

      Comedian Marvin Howard I don't think you can be....butI don't want to judge Michael on that. He was an addict they say..but I never heard MJ admit to that.

    • @mellodee123
      @mellodee123 7 лет назад

      Garfield Harrison He sure did admit to that. Check the live broadcast he did at Neverland Ranch after the allegations in 93. He states it there.

    I think a lot comes with your celebrity, he was one of the biggest stars since Elvis. People pull and pull on the entertainer and not the person. We can only imagine what it's like to be him. You can't walk the streets go to the movies with out mobs of people around you. It's drugs on another level.

    Good point. I agree. Split with Quincy Jones was beginning of end. Jones was great influence over him.

    MJ was pissed about doing Fifty shows he signed up for ten shows and what a hypocrite Travis is using Michael to make money too Let's see if he writes a book about his good friend Prince lol

      monica franklin, Michael was not in shape to do fifty shows. The way he looked in those last days, He probably would've canceled after the second show. That trial took a lot out of him spiritually and financially, which was the reason why he had to came out of hiding to do those shows. Otherwise, he would probably have to liquidate some of his assets. As much as Michael loved to perform and the stage, which was like a second home to him, it seems as if he was forced to do something that he didn't really wanna do.
