good read

I guess when you're a kid you take a lot of shit for granted

like MJ would just keep dropping record breaking records

and mashing up the world

never really thought about what he was trying to do with that record

just thought it was MJ doing his thing

the remaining image from that era for me is him wearing that shiney military style blazer with the reflective shades on and curl in a pony tail

just standing there

at attention

for awhile

and MFers would pass out

I think it's the same image they used for the history jawn

and you don't know how many of us young bols were jumping on the hoods of cars trying to impress the girls ala the way you make me feel

Yo, nobody mentioned the shoes for smooth criminal

I heard he designed some shoe or contraption so he could get his lean on during live performances

as far as under rated

I don't think Off The Wall gets it's due

it's a little bit before my time

so I've had to go back and listen

but that has to be one of the best jam records of all time

it's just jam after jam after jam

If you can't understand it without an explanation

you can't understand it with an explanation
