Mj is the Yoda of Music, not Quincy

[@Mad_Madalyn]

@captainkill1 No one claims to know MJ by just listening to his music. More like a combination of his music, listening to him *speak* and watching him, and the words and stories of countless friends and acquaintances. It's easy to know a lot about MJ. And if someone thinks he bleached his skin or other such garbage, they obviously don't know much about him. Bottom line is, the autopsy verified he had vitiligo, so know one can deny *that*.

who? you talking bout quincy RIIIIIIIIIIIITE?

[@angieoconnor1]

If someone would just post one picture of the so called vertiligo it would shut everyone up. Why can't his mother just do that then it will not be spoken about anymore. How she sat there and watch her child deny his heredity. To me as a mother I would be so offended that the child that came out of me wanted to erase everthing that God blessed my wombe with.The skin, the multitudes of plastic surgery, the wigs, is nothing like what I gave birth to would vertually not be my child.
