Nadim reports "In June 2005, Michael Jackson was acquitted of child molestation, but instead of returning to his Neverland home, he disappeared, wandering the globe for two years. Writer Jacques Peretti wanted to find out why. To this end, he tracks down the people inside the Jackson story who have never agreed to talk on camera before, including Bob Jones, his manager and right-hand man of 17 years; and Victor Guttierez, the investigative reporter who first uncovered allegations of child abuse and subsequently fled the US. They talk frankly about the details of the darkest moments in Jackson's life. What emerges is a story radically different from the one the public know: a picture both darker, more complex and more morally ambiguous than anyone could have imagined."

1993 Interview of Michael Jackson by Oprah Winfrey
This video is the bomb. When Oprah has Michael in his movie theater, you will see how he gives props to the "street kids" who really make the dance moves, and then he does his beat box which is bananas. He is truly a genius, and anyone who says different, just ignore them and run as far away as you can.

He will be deeply missed,” Procope told AllHipHop.com in a statement. “From the moment the news of his passing was made public, fans began gathering at the Apollo to pay their respects and celebrate Michael’s life.
