Celebrating the Life, Art, & Legacy of Michael Jackson from a Black Millennial Perspective.
Day 12:The Fabulous Life and Times of Bubbles "The Chimp" Jackson
In the early 80s, Michael Jackson was the biggest superstar and entertainer in the world. He was also known to be a serious animal lover, and had amassed a menagerie of pets that lived with him at his home in Havenhurst. MJs most famous pet, and arguably the most famous celebrity pet in modern times, Bubbles the Chimp, came to be a source of love and support for Michael Jackson, as well as a celebrity and superstar in his own right.

Day 1: Michael's Jackson's First Noel
Michael Jackson celebrated his very first Christmas holiday in 1993. Having grown up a devout Jehovah’s Witness, Michael once said that because of his religious upbringing, he was taught to never celebrate Christmas or any other holiday. However, that all changed when, at the age of 35, Michael Jackson celebrated his first Christmas, courtesy of one of his truest friends, and Hollywood icon, Elizabeth Taylor.

Michael Jackson's Leading Ladies
We've all seen the videos and the dancing. We can never forget the music and the vocals. No Michael Jackson video or short film would be complete without his iconic dance sequences and signature style. But what becomes of THRILLER without the deafening scream of Ola Ray being cornered by zombies or THE WAY YOU MAKE ME FEEL without the unforgettable chasing and wooing of Tatiana Thumbsten through the streets of L.A.? In honor of Women's History Month, join the Users as we pay homage to MJs Leading Ladies.
We are celebrating Black History Month by honoring seven amazingly talented Black dancers who taught and influenced Michael Jackson's dance moves and evolution. Joined by special guests Dr. Greene and Taj Jackson, we celebrate and pay homage to the beauty and genius of Black art and dance, and how these individuals helped make Michael Jackson the King of Pop.
“The world we live in is the dance of the creator. Dancers come and go in the twinkling of an eye, but the dance lives on.” - Michael Jackson

The BJE Presents: The 12 Days of Christmas Day 10
"What More Can I Give?" Michael Jackson's lost and unsung charity single, still uplifts listeners nearly 20 years after it became known to fans and the public as a song written by Michael Jackson featuring some of the best voices of the early 2000s (Celine Dion, Beyonce, Luther Vandross, Usher, Mariah Carey and more!).
Michael Jackson's meant to use this song in order to raise money for the victims of 9/11. However, because of professional and personal issues behind the scene (that spilled over into the public) the song never reached its full potential and was never able to achieve its purpose. On Day 10 the Users celebrate "What More Can I Give" and how its message and sound endures.

Michael Jackson was on top of the entertainment and music world in 1982 when he decided to lend his talent and voice to the E.T. Storybook.
We unpack MJ's involvement in the E.T. phenomenon and how, unknown to many, the Black godfather, Clarence Avant saved the ET Storybook project from the ultimate death spiral.

Episode 25 Day 4: BJE Christmas Special
It's Day 4 of the Black Jackson Estate 12 Days of Christmas Special! We're paying homage to the anthem of all anthems for world unity, peace, love, and togetherness -- We Are the World.
Released in 1985, We Are the World brought together musical superstars from multiple generations and genres. Written by Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie, it raised more than $63M for humanitarian efforts in Africa and America. And it is still the blueprint for artists to follow when hoping to use their talent to benefit those in need.
Happy Holidays from the Black Jackson Estate!

Welcome to Episode 19 where anything can happen, including RATS!!!!!!
In this episode we discuss Little Michael Jackson’s top 10 songs. User 1 takes us on a wild ride of Michael Jackson’s Motown catalogue. We discuss the peaks and valleys and even have a spirited argument that is pretty custom around here.
During our news segment we discuss sooooo many Jacksons including The Jacksons re-releases and statements we didnt ask for, Michael’s IRS update alongside whatever else is going on in his legal world, Janet’s yard sale / auction and more!!!!
Enjoy the news music because honestly, it’s really good, much like the 10 MJ songs we run through here.

Episode 15 - Do You Wanna Be User 4? A Moonwalk Book Review
Welcome to Episode 15 - it's our third January here at BJE. Thanks for joining us for another year! This one is all about Michael Jackson's autobiography, "Moonwalk".
One of two books written by Jackson, the second being a series of poems called ‘Dancing The Dream’. Michael completed the book over the course of 2-4 years after We Are The World and released during the Bad era.
We discuss the details of the book and how Michael told more about himself than he may have intended, which makes for an interesting read.
Also... we're auctioning off the title of User 4. Wanna be an official user? Be a donor! For just $14.99 you can become an official sponsor for our feed and get a shout out on the podcast!!!! You can also give us like... a dollar, and we'll probably still give it to you. It's a supply and demand kinda thing.

Episode 13 - No Randy Formed Against Me Shall Prosper
The Black Jackson Estate - Episode 13 - No Randy Formed Against Me Shall Prosper
13 is a miserable, unlucky number. What a coincidence.
Today’s episode will unpack the wild and crazy life of Steven Randall Jackson, 8th of 9 children to Katherine and Joseph Jackson on Oct 29, 1961. We unpack Randy's wild political tweets and then reflect on his career through today.
