Normally you can't bring out an artist from the 80s and hope that the young people of today become fans, but with Michael Jackson, you just have to throw a piece back into the machine and it always works...
Michael's Music is Timeless, Immortal.
Michael Jackson watched Rush Hour 2 and immediately called Chris Tucker
He said, ‘Is this Chris Tucker?’
Tucker said, ‘Yeah… who’s this?’
The voice said, ‘This is Michael Jackson.’
Tucker said, ‘What’s up, Mike?’
Michael said, ‘I just called to tell you — I saw Rush Hour 2… and you’re kicking with the wrong leg. Stop making me look bad.’”
Then it started the friendship.
— “immortality will cradle you gently in its arms & you will be forever known.” & she was right! 🌹🥹♾️ michael jackson being honored with the frederick d. patterson award by the UNCF presented to him by dr. mabel parker mclean, 1988.
When Michael Jackson visited Africa for the first time, he went to a village in Ivory Coast with no internet, yet they all knew him. Their king, who was a huge fan of Michael, even stepped down and crowned him king — a title they honored until his death 🤯
