Not really, Jermaine’s common law ex wife and Katherine was behind the series. Jermaine started off supportive of it but then shifted his attention to his album at the time. He left the production of it, leaving it up to his mother and then common law wife to write, cast, etc… He didn’t really do much.

​@@Snyper1405 What makes them not normal?

[@MINOUTFTABOU]

It's really completely normal when certain members pump the successful member of the Family for MONEY. No this is not normal and MJ had made this known several times. His father not only lived beyond his means, he wasn't really faithful to his wife. How are you supposed to feel when some brother or even your father is constantly begging for money? I'm not a fan of MJ to realize when even your own family line is constantly begging you for money. You open the door, look forward to a visit at first and guess "maybe". . . after the third time and ask yourself: "Are they coming to visit for money again?" It's completely normal. Janet was more energetic and made it clear : "Help yes . . but don't take advantage!"

[@robertj.batista]

Michael is the greatest talent of the Jackson family. MJ eventually worked with Teddy Riley and created Dangerous. MJ, as a producer and songwriter, worked with Teddy and Bill Bottrell. MJ wrote and co-produced three songs by himself, without co-writers, and the other songs were co-written and co-produced by him as well. In the end it was the best decision. It's a shame for Jarmaine, but even with the best producers or songwriters, he wouldn't have achieved the same level of success as Michael or Janet Jackson. He's a good bassist and singer, but MJ and Janet were in another league. Randy Jackson, after Michael, is the most talented member of the family. He is a singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. It's a good thing he joined The Jacksons after Jarmaine stayed at Motown due to commitment. Together with Michael, he co-wrote the best songs.

[@mechajay3358]

It wasn't just Micheal that was upset with the diss track, apparently some members on the family like their mother Katherine that were very upset by the song as well and had Jermaine apologize for it.

[@mrm64]

Coming from someone who didn't get to see all this unfold (born in 1994) and didn't get into MJ until he passed (I was very sheltered)... unbiased, I can understand Jermaine, really I can. Being the bro of someone who is almost as popular as Jesus or Mohammad is not easy. And I wish Mike had more positive reinforcement (not taking plastic surgery, being told he's fine the way he is etc). I can also understand Michael. Finally being free to do what he wants after a strict unbringing and loss of childhood. So... it's tough. I really do wish Jermiane was more successful in the 90s, he's very talented. All I can say is I'm glad the Jacksons reunited one last time in 2001 before Mike passed away in 2009.

[@rvegas81]

It was really interesting. I remember that Madonna's Erotica had alot of heat around the same time as well. it's just interesting looking back on it now.

[@hannaz4617]

It is a misconception that Michael Jackson underwent plastic surgery. Many plastic surgeons use his case to promote their services. In reality, Michael never underwent plastic surgery. His nasal surgery is not categorized as plastic surgery since many individuals require such procedures due to a broken nose or blocked airways impeding breathing. Without access to his medical records, we cannot confirm whether Michael underwent nasal surgery for respiratory issues (as observed in childhood interviews) or due to a broken nose. Michael had lupus, his skin didn't have the ability to heal after surgery, he needed reconstructive procedures. The later chin cleft in his life is not considered plastic surgery, as it involved a minor procedure. The absence of plastic surgery is confirmed in his autopsy report. If he had a facelift, there would be scars in front of the ears; however, the scars behind his ears resulted from a surgery where a balloon was placed under his skull to increase elasticity, addressing migraines after second and third-degree burns. Michael received botox treatments and dermal fillers, as testified by his dermatologist. These treatments are common in the entertainment industry and are often required. Various professionals, including news reporters, journalists, actors, musicians, and public figures, undergo such treatments. Additionally, Michael had vitiligo, a condition commonly treated by dermatologists using a lightening cream with 1% Hydroquinone. This cream, coupled with makeup, helps manage the condition. The process involves a gradual lightening of the skin, it's not whitening the skin. The skin becomes almost translucent as pigments are lost. You can't change a darker skin type into a white skin type, that's impossible. Contrary to popular belief, Michael wasn't harsh on Jermaine; rather, Jermaine was critical of Michael. Jealousy played a role, as Jermaine sought financial support from his brother. Michael even provided him with money and child support.

[@Tropical_Rain7]

@@hannaz4617 It is delusional to think it was all his diseases and accidents that caused his apperance. It is known that he hated his face. And I think nobody can say who was the "first" to start the feud but there is a pattern with Michael to treat people cold as ice and very selfish and we have to stop always accusing the others for his behaviour. This video shows once more that he was not the victim he wanted to appear as in the public eye.

[@MsTrueTy]

​@@Tropical_Rain7Michael is human at the end of the day. And Got mad like any other person. As for the surgeries, i believe a lot of it was a mixture of psychological torture from his dad, family and even fans. And then having a skin disease I believe it just all was too much for him. But really if you look at Michaels face ignoring the vitiligo the only surgeries was his chin and nose. Nothing else about his face structurally was different. The reason he looked weird was the permanent tattoos he did on his lips and eyes. Making him looking cartoonish and I wish he never would of done that. And his nose simply wouldn't heal due to his lupus. Michael went through a lot and his family TOOK endlessly. Michael gave his brothers millions out of guilt. I think by the 90s he had simply gone cold in typical Virgo fashion. But he always loved his family. They just put too much on him and further he isolated.

[@Tropical_Rain7]

@@MsTrueTy To clear that up I always supported and understood him. I just found out so many things in the last time that showed that he did one malicious thing after another. And he hid his bad charakter traits and presented himself always as the victim in the public eye. At some point it is too much bad things. Then you have to ask if we knew him at all. I bet you don't know 95 percent of the things.

I didn’t agree with Jermaine’s diss but what Michael did was also out of pocket. But no one will say that because it’s Michael. Fame and show business got in between the family and shit happens. I’m glad they talked and squashed like family and grown folks supposed to do.

[@nysic1234]

Exact. Michael did something wrong, michael had his shady moments.

[@chicagoneurolife]

I somewhat disagree with you here, I would say it depends on why he did it. After looking at how Michael created various albums after Bad, “Invincible” and his work after the trial, Michael tended to go to the top producers of an era and ask them to turn in music for him to review for his albums. So, it seems this was the way he worked. It was truly just business, if this was his motive. However, knowing how competitive Michael was, if he did it on purpose to sabotage Jermaine, then I would say, yea, Michael was wrong. It has been said that Michael sabotaged a few other artists in the 90s, including Janet, slightly. If this is true, then it’s likely he was being shady. But it’s hard to say what Michael’s intention was here. All I know is, I don’t think Michael owed Jermaine anything, business wise, here. If Jermaine wanted his album done he needed to learn how to be a businessman and compete. To add, they didn’t really “squash” things, according to Jermaine’s ex, who was around at the time, Katherine told her what happened in the room, Jermaine basically howled at Michael, and Michael sat there and took it. Eventually Michael left after the confrontation. Jermaine’s anger continued beyond that, and he began to take it out on his family. The issue here is bringing your family members private life out in the open to humiliate him even though Jermaine was just as guilty of altering himself, in what could be considered “Anti-Black” ways. It’s strange to me, why not just compete with Michael? Keep personal separate from business. That’s what Michael was used to from the Motown era. The artists competed against each other and were friends. There were things Jermaine could have done. Jermaine claimed he was just as talented as Michael, okay, then where was it? Why didn’t he just use that talent to get back at Michael in a way that challenged him to see Jermaine could hold his own? I just don’t think Jermaine was much of a businessman, and he didn’t have the creative instinct.

[@Snyper1405]

​@@chicagoneurolifefully agree 💯

[@unathinkomo5858]

​​@@chicagoneurolifeI agree I believe it wasn't malicious just business. Perhaps "shady" to the media since Jermaine was his brother but Michael was very professional. He didn't favor people especially not his family just cause their related. He used to favor his family in the 70s and ealry 80s and that cost him dearly. Man learnt his lesson and put himself and his career first. I don't think either of them meant any malicious intentions towards each other but Jermaine's song damn that was uncalled for. Especially knowing how sensitive Michael was about his appearance. Glad they worked it out though.

[@akilahposh]

I agree with this. That was a real shady thing for MJ to do and I would be mad too!

[@johnlucas1543]

+isaiahleaks I'm one of those huge Michael Jackson fans & I AGREE with YOU. Michael shouldn't have done that & at the very least should have given Jermaine a heads up by phone call instead of being so cold blooded about it. Things changed in the family after Thriller & the Victory Tour. The Jackson 5/Jacksons were a mix of Professional & Personal. Literally mixing Business with Family. That ALWAYS goes wrong sooner or later. So when Mike went solo for good, it damaged the family. He moved different within the family. Some of it for his own survival but some of it because he wanted to be around everybody else. That's part of why he was adopting these outside families & hanging around with them. Most of the time this was fine but eventually this is what would be used to try to take him down. Michael was righteously ambitious & was trying to pioneer to keep Black Artists out of the resegregation the industry wanted to put them under. His embrace of the crossover was for the good of us all. So he was all about his career at this point..,even if he had to sacrifice family members to do it. This is what caused the rift between him & Jermaine with Mike hijacking Jermaine's producers L.A. Reid & Babyface. Every time Michael went outside of his family, his career grew stronger & stronger. It did for The Wiz & Off The Wall. The Jacksons' Triumph is a marvelous album but it only sold so much. He goes to Thriller & becomes the biggest of all time. Victory was actually good but always in the shadow of Thriller. By the time we get to We Are The World, it is clear to Michael that separating from his brothers professionally is good for business & career. He can't break barriers still being part of the Jackson 5/Jacksons. The problem was this started to create separation personally as well. And that's how we got to the eventual beef. The 1993 Witch Hunt with those allegations was pure evil but it had a silver lining. It forced Michael to reevaluate his relationship with his family & show who would be with him when it all came crumbling down. I don't think he took his family for granted anymore after that situation. See how united they were in the 2005 trial for proof of this. AND it forced Jermaine to reevaluate going public with the family's dirty laundry (LaToya underlined it). They should have worked this out in private because there are those in the public who have always wanted to see the Jackson Family torn apart forever. From that point on, you see Jermaine rep the Jackson 5. J5 symbol on his clothes & everything he does. I'm glad they came back together on stage in 2001. And I hoped that they would work together on one more studio project before Michael ended up dying. But in the end, in Michael's intended This Is It concerts, Michael reps the J5 on HIS stage. I felt so good to see that. The elaborate 1970s psychedelic colors with the J5 logo on top. Mike largely had stopped separating personally even if he still stayed seperate professionally.

[@mariaelenafenu1037]

MJ wasn't all so wrong, Jermaine didn't put much input in his work like Michael did, he was always full of drama, kids here and there and over spending and cheating on wife's and girlfriends lol. Maybe Michael was shady, but that is the industry you've got play a little to get somewhere. Still, Jermaine is dope and super talented but he would've never be like Michael, MJ was a different kind of breed. Jermaine was intimidated by Michael jn my opinion. Michael never flopped. Never.

It is interesting that with some stars for example Beyonce and Jay Z there are rumours that they end artist's careers to stay at the top and people can't believe it because it is so ruthless. And here you see that this is probably really the case behind the scenes and that somebody does it that is seen as a saint from many fans. It is by the way a pretty double standard that Jermaine is accused as the one who is jealous and Michael who is the one known to do everything to stay at the peak is again the choirboy.

[@Ambrosia-]

I don't like the fact that Jermaine is criticized so much. I am sure he loves and he miss his brother Michael. He was just upset about Michael being distant and ashamed about his appearance. He didn't recognize his little brother, they were very close when they were child, Micheal saw Jermaine as a model.

[@walkerpantera]

like 90% of music artists, they peak with hits and then gradually decline in popularity. Jermaine peaked in the mid-80s and (for him) quickly declined. Very few artists experience more than one peak.

Jermaine wasn't the only one who didn't believe in Michael's prophesized 20 million albums in lipstick on the bathroom mirror. Jackie didn't believe it either. But you didn't see Michael sabotage his album, did you? Jackie had a solo album in 1989. Michael blew EVERYBODY'S minds because a Black Person had never gone that far before. It STILL didn't make it right for Michael to swipe Jermaine's producers like that without at least a phone call to Jermaine so they could share them. Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis are Janet's producers yet Michael & Janet were able to share them on both their albums: Michael's HIStory & Blood on the Dance Floor & Janet's The Velvet Rope. The brothers fell out somewhere along the line & it ended up in this mess. Remember, Jermaine saved Michael from drowning in 1978. Signs of his eventual lupus were showing then. Michael had pleurisy which can be a symptom of lupus. That's deep family right there. This man Jermaine once saved Michael's life to MAKE an Off The Wall, Thriller, & Bad. The least Michael could do was honor his family & do things the right way. I wouldn't let some brother's doubt over my project override my brotherly bond.

Michael was wrong for to do his brother like that and LA Reid and Babyface were just as wrong. Jermaine was your actual artist and you did him like that. I get everybody wanted the chance to work with Michael but to leave Jermaine hanging like that was completely out of pocket.

[@tanarenolds3927]

No they were smart. You mfs forget these people work for money and be honest, what hit would they get from Jermaine?😂 Be real.

[@tanarenolds3927]

Jermaine been skep when he left the group the first time and started dating berrys daughter. He wanted to be the star and he lacked talent.

[@Shia_B]

@tanarenolds3927 if they felt like they couldn't get a hit out of him why sign him to their label.....I love Mike but as a brother i would have been upset too and Babyfave and LA Reid was wrong for doing their newly signed artists like that only for Mike to not even use their stuff.

[@XP9724]

Michael did him wrong and basically ended his career by getting his record pulled. People only go after Jermaine when MJ was the one to blame here.

[@oliviernga6080]

End his career ? I don't think so, Jermaine could have released another record if he wanted to

[@thedetail.]

I think he was effectively blacklisted on radio after this point.

[@XP9724]

@@oliviernga6080 The song was gaining popularity and moving up the charts just to get killed after a few weeks so we'll never know how well this album and it's songs would've actually done. He released to more singles from the album that went top 40 on the r&b charts despite being blacklisted by radio. It's a shame it wasn't given a fair chance cuz the album is good.

[@XP9724]

@@thedetail. Thanks for the response, I like your videos and get you're an MJ channel but I feel like ur a little unfair when covering the brothers success, specifically Jermaine. It's always made to seem like Jermaine was struggling his entire career and really never found much success when that's just not true. The Dynamite album went gold in 3 weeks and sold millions of copies after spawning 4 huge hits with most of them doing extremely well globally, not just in the US, and outlasted the Victory album on the charts despite coming out months before. He was also credited on Somebody's watching me along with MJ and helped introduce the world to Whitney Houston the same year which I think would be an interesting topic ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

[@thedetail.]

I did mention these achievements when covering this time period. But I also feel Jermaine never felt secure in his solo music career, he never sustained the mainstream popularity he desired and the comparisons to Michael and the Jacksons were persistent. The amount of times he was written about next to a picture of his brother Jackie just demonstrates how lacklustre he was treated by the mainstream press.

[@crystal.holmes]

I see you all paid attention to my comment about Word to the Badd. That is a fast turnaround, fellas.

Jermaine always talked rubbish to the press. From 90s onward we were told by him they were in studio, planning tour etc. He just had to ride those coat tails.

[@kristinhellmuth6052]

[@pensiveczar2239]

This is a sanitized version of a story. According to Jermaine's ex's book, Jermaine was delighted when the song was "leaked," boasting about it as if it was the best thing he had ever done and wasn't interested in Michael's hurt feelings. It was the most attention one of his songs had gotten in a long time, and he was thrilled. She also mentioned that Jermaine was angry with Michael for "stealing" L.A. Reid and Babyface from him and didn't feel remorse for the song's brutality. It was actually Clive Davis who K.O.'d the song because Michael was too big of a star for the company to be associated with anything so slanderous to him.

[@jonathanmork27]

I know we MJ fans like to act like Michael is a perfect angel, but he is clearly in the wrong here. Respect for Jermaine.

[@johnlucas1543]

+jonathanmork Absolutely. A rare petty moment from Michael. It didn't need to happen.

[@oliviernga6080]

He was not a perfect angel, he was a human, with good and bad sides, he also had his frustrations, maybe resents

[@scorpionJB]

Jermaine loved his brother and was upset in the choices that was destroying his livelihood...sometimes you have to show anger to show your love even if its not popular..........the entire family was exploited once MJ reached the top...

[@ST-nz4bf]

[@ifallthingsmatter]

Sibling rivalry and jealously can be so real man. Jermaine is so clearly so envious of Michael but MJ is kind to forgive him. But till today, Jermaine makes use of MJ to earn money such as writing the book about MJ and now even getting his own son to play MJ. Its very PATHETIC if you ask me. That man is nothing without MJ. RIP MJ.

[@akilahposh]

I don't think getting his son to play MJ is pathetic. If anything it shows love and respect for his brotgwr’s legacy.

[@ifallthingsmatter]

@@akilahposh I think you are very naive. Anyway I just hope they provide justice to MJ with the new Biopic.

[@Tropical_Rain7]

It is just shocking how much can be revealed about Michael's true character and people still think all the others are the villains. It is shown that Michael cancelled his brother's carreer. And it is known that he avoided direct confrontations so as a close friend or even family member you will be treated like that and then iced out as if you were nothing. That must be very hard. By the way Michael is still alive and to this day uses his family members including his kids to play this charade.

[@ifallthingsmatter]

@@Tropical_Rain7 Are you out of your mind? True character? Yes he was a man of good character. He donated to various charities all over the world, never abused a person and gave us great music and entertainment to divulge. After all these you ungrateful person, you can still tear him down. If you hate Michael so much, why the heck are you even watching and commenting on this video? Be gone you hateful creature. You seriously need some psychiatric evaluation and medications.

I don't see why they couldn't find another nephew to play Michael. Not Jermaines son. I will never forget Jermaine always talking family then putting out word to the bad. He had already slept with Randy's girlfriend and had 2 children by her then marrying her. Jermaine is the shades one out of all of the brothers. He is mad he never became a superstar like Michael and Janet.

[@hannaz4617]

That is so true! You are absolutely right. Michael gave a lot of money to his mother, his father and his brothers. He paid child support, education for the children of his brothers and other expenses. Michael was very generous to his family. Jermaine was always jealous of Michael, because Michael was musically on another level. Michael also had immense talent in dancing.

[@Tropical_Rain7]

Great that you are not shying away from saying what Michael did BUT why this video title??? Michael destroyed Jermaine's carrer. This should be put in the title. Jermaine's track is only the response of what Michael did and the result of Michael avoiding any direct confrontation (as usual) so that Jermaine could not sort it out privately. Michael's statments about buisiness (and the known fact that he was a ruthless buisiness man) prove that he showed no mercy when it comes to buisness and it would be a double standard in every regard to blame Jermaine in this feud.

[@Sttephy30]

He didn't destroy his career, just took his producers for a bit. They still ended up finishing the album and the album went no where. The songs werent good enough.

[@Дюймовочка-ь2я]

In Jermaine's book "Michael, you are not alone" it is written that the author of this song is not him, but someone else who took advantage of the conflict situation that arose between the brothers and composed it. Jermaine sang it because he was angry at Michael, but no one should have heard the song at all, but the "good people" took care of that. Later, Michael and Jermaine discussed the situation and reconciled. В книге Джермейна "Майкл, ты не одинок" написано, что автор этой песни не он, а кто то другой, который воспользовался конфликтной ситуацией, возникшей между братьями и сочинил её. Джермейн её спел, потому что был зол на Майкла, но песню вообще никто не должен был услышать, но "добрые люди" позаботились и об этом. Позже Майкл и Джермейн обсудили эту ситуацию и помирились

[@Tropical_Rain7]

You have to understand that you can't take nothing for real what all the Jacksons including Michael are saying. They are changing their statements all the time. It is all about tactics. They have to consider always how something sells, helps their carreer or could destroy it.
