And it all began when MJ refused to give his music to a Geffen film

It's insane how MJ managed to have 5 albums sell over 20 million copies worldwide. Lemme get the stats in here lol

23 year long reign
The MJ slander has reached another level smh
I've had friendships fizzle out over MJ slander, I won't tolerate it
Even when I present the facts, people love doubling down on their generational inherited ignorance and instead rely on ambiguous "facts". That on it's own reveals a lot about a person and I can't stand that pride over truth s***, especially in regards to a Nubian king who was very mistreated by this world

The late 80s were so weird, labels pushing a song to the top, only to abandon the track for the next #1. Most hits of that era didn’t last more than 20 weeks overall, nowadays big hits spend that long in the top 10 alone.
