people look so different once you don't care about them anymore. you begin to notice how ordinary they are, how it was your love that made them unique; that placed them on some sort of pedestal.
I think Olandria' Nyx collab came from her responding to the lipstick she been leaving on Nic and she said its Nyx and Nic said Nics and she was was like the brand Nyx. You cant replicate that. Can people be allowed to be authentic, you tell a better story that way.Just saying
madonna’s new album is flopping and her biopic got cancelled because not everyone can get MJ budget now her fans are projecting their frustration onto michael. i understand i would be mad too if my fave was washed and had to rely on collaborations with newer artists to be relevant in 2026.
Pharell wrote & produced JT’s first album ‘Justified’ which was meant for MJ but he rejected it, which to this day I don’t understand WHY he did that😭
& there were young producers back then that wanted to get him right. I would hear songs that went to other artists because Mike rejected them & be like “This ni**a Mike woulda sounded amazing on this”. Shit it was nothing but 107.5 WBLS & Hot 97 that would play his singles from “Invincible”. I always said that Janet & her music was marketed mainly towards Black people & honestly her being open to the change in R&B is why she put out such amazing work during the 90s
Fun fact: Quincy Jones brought a LOT of white songwriters and musicians on MJ's albums. So much, that OTW was MJ's "whitest" album in that regard. The more control MJ had over his albums, the more black involvement grew on them.
As someone who works in TV & Film I know reality tv contracts explicitly state that they have the broad authority to edit, fictionalize, & manipulate footage to create storylines, regardless of whether those narratives reflect the truth.
They reserve the right to humiliate you
You get married in an arena & shut down half a city on a holiday weekend. You have a Zionist freak marry you. You invite abusers, MAGA’s, the fella who runs the ICE detention centre, a bunch of zios & you walk down the aisle to your own songs.
You could never make me like her!
