Marlon Jackson On Video Soul

Marlon being interviewed by Donnie Simpson.

[@Tre404]

I met Marlon on my FedEx route in Roswell, GA, delivering to his house several times. This was in 2008-2010. He was a very nice and gracious guy.

[@ginapetonito]

I met Marlon in Nashville on Dec. 18. A wonderful, kind, caring, friendly, funny person. I will never look at these videos the same way again.

[@ecaldwell9]

I met Donnie Simpson in Memphis around 95/96 Juneteenth event. Same thing. 😊

[@MelodyMaker151]

He always seemed like a nice person. I like him a lot.

[@shevettejackson8129]

Me too.

[@therealflamelit]

Marlon knows his stuff as a composer / producer

[@oholm09]

That's easy just focus and I'm self taught as an musician composer

[@kelitamiles7270]

He should have come out with a Marlon keyboard affordable for kids

[@jeralleneroquemore8054]

Marlon is an honest man. Got chance of a lifetime in 2016 .got a chance to shake his hand at their concert.

[@kenmorgan6641]

Congrats Marlon on being happily married to your sweet wife Carol after all these years..............

[@kayandaeddings4803]

It seems like out of all of the Jackson siblings that he and rebie stayed married to their spouses. Except, her spouse died back in 2011 or 2012 of cancer. I might be off on the year. And all of the other brothers and sisters was divorced.

I miss these types of interviews. Interviewers cared about the artist and didn’t focus so much on tabloid stories and gossip.

You really thinks he looks like his dad????? I always thought Tito looked like his dad. Rebbie and Janet. Definitely have his cheeks !!!! Marlon. Is a very goodlooking man. And he was just so cute back in the day. Just adorable!!!!

[@jodylehman920]

None of that bullshit about Michael was never ever true. Michael was genuine and true. But as long as you're gonna believe all that. You just made all those papers more rich!!!!

Loved Video Soul and Donnie Simpson was an awesome host. They need a classic BET channel so we can watch Video Soul

[@CodyCole80]

Good idea!

[@kayandaeddings4803]

I know right? BET pretty much sucks now. They just launched MTV classic. Why can't we get BET classic? We do have three more channels that's BET related. We have BET jams, centric, and BET soul.

[@amiehampton867]

Yeah BET should follow MTV classic and bringing BET classics like Video Soul,Teen Summit and Rap City oh and I want to see 106th and Park too.

Marlon and Michael laugh the same !!!!!!!!!!!!! He has a great personality Marlon J and MJ seem A LOT alike it's just MJ puts up a shy guard most of the time he's just out there both really goofy !

[@jarrettcone8949]

Right Michael Is like Marlon in private

[@rahmelpervez697]

What I really like about Marlons album was that it was more on the soulful /funk side.. Nothing like Michael or the rest of the families side of music 🎶 good stuff!!!

[@barbee0715]

Marlon gives a really great interview-too bad more people didn't give Michael a chance to talk more about making music, because Marlon says a lot of the same things that Michael's colleagues said about him in the songwriting/recording process. And good for him for sticking up for Michael at the end-even though at that time you could tell that he didn't really know the true story about the Elephant Man Bones or about the vitiligo problems yet.

[@annamartin1154]

Great interview!. Marlon was my favorite Jackson 5 member.

[@mercedes7811]

Who else noticed Janet Jackson's multi-platinum selling album CONTROL in the background? Man it must've been hard being a Jackson sibling if your name wasn't Janet or Michael.

[@CodyCole80]

He should've held on to that 350k to eat. I'm a major r&b buff, and I never knew he had an album, so he couldn't have gotten that much publishing.

[@barbee0715]

Codycole80 I never bought it, but I did see him on quite a few talk shows plugging it around this time. That's why he wasn't in the 2300 Jackson Street vid, etc.

[@willjarmon4418]

for a minute in 1988 he was major. For the single Dont Go he beat Michael out of the top spot in radio play. Dont Go charted #2 in 1988

[@CodyCole80]

+Will Jarmon It must have been a QUICK minute because the last time I remember Marlon being relevant was on the "Triumph" album with "Can You Feel It." Not downing him because I appreciate and admire ALL The Jacksons for their come up AND contribution to music, but I'm just being real. {shrug} 🎺🎧🎸

[@willjarmon4418]

***** the song he sang on was Give It Up lol. He might not been as relevant as Michael Janet or Jermaine but in the background he did work for others

[@ghanasoul]

I like Marlon in this footage. Seems like a nice guy. Least he can say he did a solo project all his own. However, in the "Body" video he always came off as a poor version of Michael. Mike was effortless and Marlon looked like he was tryin way too hard. He was good at covering for his brother 4 his weird behavior durin that time.

[@luciousguinn8074]

Actually you are wrong Marlon michael & jackie did the choregrapy of the group and live on stage marlon did all of jermaine's parts in the old songs and did very well and people love it

[@ghanasoul]

Lucious Guinn i know the 3 brothers did the choreography. I also know Marlon took Jermaine’s parts. Michael has gone on record saying he thought Marlon was the best dancer. At least Marlon was able to create his own project and produce himself. Most artists today can’t even do that.

[@classicstorm]

Even Mj said marlon was the best dancer in the group...

[@muhsalihu]

@@classicstorm Janet said so too. She also said that Rebbie is the best of the girls.
