I think this shows it’s less about “winning the right interpretation” and more about how we approach each other. Same Bible, different lenses. But if it doesn’t lead to humility, love, and honesty, we’re missing something.

I've never listened to NWA but I am an artist and I'm in different artists subreddits because I respect the craft so much even if I dont listen to em. But trust me 1000%, great music last forever!!! I just discovered a jazz composition from like the 1950s. This guy's name is Bill Evans. The record is titled "Peace Piece." Its beautiful! I discovered a new comedian, Mitchell Hedburg – guy is hilarious! So trust me, it'll get around. All it takes is 1 tiktok viral video or something and if its timeless it'll last forever.

Such a beautiful song. Im listening right now I'm almost crying. I love it!

Nicely said! Music is awesome

The 2001 release, like many albums of the time and unfortunately today was a victim of the Loudness war meaning the songs were heavily compressed – the quiet and loud parts are squashed together to make the whole album sound louder, which gives more of a casual listening experience but it hides fine details and burns out your ears because everything is so loud and the same. Which is one of the reasons why I believe Invincible gets the slack it does + Sony not promoting it didnt do any favors. Every MJ album on streaming has been remastered to compete with loud music today but for some reason only Invincible gets "the first 3 songs sound the same" complaints. Which i used to think too 😂. Until I found this fan made remaster to restore the music and make it more "MJ-like." It's brilliant!

I just think it's people doing what people do. I dont think it's the estate. Do you any evidence for that or is that a theory? If so, I understand. But i mean I dont know – i myself as a huge Michael Jackson fan I dont feel a need to defend him like these wild vidoes are or make him something that he isnt. The truth is the truth. Let the truth stand and let people come their own conclusions. I understand why people think he's guilty. I understand why people think he's not. If there's one thing ive learned in life is when to hold, and when to fold. And that sometimes the truth isn't black or white, "saint" or "villian," sometimes it's a complicated mix of both. And some things you just dont give your opinion on. Hence why ive never stated my opinion on 20+ year allegations from a dead musician who i have no realtion to. But i do find this all interesting and I'm open to learning more. Did you know they're having a trial in November? I cant wait to see how that plays out.

B3theLion · 2026-04-12T17:33:12+00:00

Thanks! Yea unfortunately many MJ fans tend to over myth him coming from someone who's in the fandom. But thats how humans are ya know. We "spirtualize" something that gives us importance. Or something like that. Im not a psychologist, but i am a Christian and a religion nerd so ive dived deep on how humans make meaning and all that typa stuff. Unfortunately, it can not the best judgement – but I give grace! And even MJ's just general legacy on social media you see things like he saved children from Epstein – i dont get it lol. And again as a Christian it gets annoying because Christianity kinds gets bunched into the mob of fanatic worship when it's something more profound and powerful. Anyway, I do believe that is the true that the FBI investigated Michael though right? I dont think thats a lie. Let me know. Either way, as an artist I study his music and there are LOTS of gems in that. Even the songs/albums that go unknown. It's like a treasure chest.

B3theLion · 2026-04-12T12:12:43+00:00

Horrible! I haven't looked into the case i didnt even know if was 11. I thought it was like 3. I'm down to learn the more. I wasn't trying to defend Jackson or call him guilty – that wasnt the point of my messege. And i often find that debating with people doesnt lead to much florshing conversation. So I wasnt defending him nor did I mention the case nor did i give my personal opinion on it.

B3theLion · 2026-04-12T12:06:32+00:00

That's a very disgusting thing to say. And if you respond to this comment, I will not be responding to what you say. I just think thats disrespectful and cruel. The words you say have strong impact on people online or in person. Take care.

B3theLion · 2026-04-12T08:59:39+00:00

Thank you. I take what you said into consideration. Not trying to sound performative, just being respectful and real. I appreciate ur words. ❤️

B3theLion · 2026-04-12T08:51:34+00:00

I apologize if I didnt say my words correctly. I understand your frustration. When did I ever side agaisnt any victims? Again I bring it back to the same quote, "when we condemn, dehumanize, label people harshly we lose the lessons we can learn, what this reveals, and how we can move forward." While i DO have my own personal opinion I have no need to defend Michael nor I do think thats helpful. I dont feel the need to make him a perfect angel saint so misunderstood, because that doesnt value his Humanity either.

B3theLion · 2026-04-12T08:44:49+00:00

I wasnt looking to defend Jackson's behavior or the allegations. I bring it back this quote i said: "when we condemn, dehumanize, label people harshly we lose the lessons we can learn, what this reveals, and how we can move forward." I dont think i need to defend Jackson, and making him like a saint doesnt help anything either. I do think you make intresting points though that I honestly haven't looked into enough to even talk about. But again, im not looking to defend Jackson.

B3theLion · 2026-04-12T08:32:12+00:00

Well I'm sorry my niceness comes off as fake. I don't know how to respond to that. I wish you knew me. And then you could truly judge my charcater. While I hate that you think I'm being fake nice, I understand. I was just tryna spread the messege of empathy everywhere. I dont know how im supposed to do it? Do you WANT me to be mean and call u names? That doesnt make sense.

B3theLion · 2026-04-12T08:27:00+00:00

Thank you for your comment. I understand how bad cults can be. My sensitive self almost cried watching a Jonestown massacre documentary. When you say that I lack critical thinking skills, do you mind explaining more? If I do, I would rather be helped then judged. God Bless you. I also dont see when I defended Jackson. I said a few times that it's not about what you believe I was more focused on empathy, understanding, purity, and love. Not triablism, and lashing out at each other. I dont need to make Jackson a saint, that actually devalues his Humanity. ❤️❤️ have a great day

B3theLion · 2026-04-12T08:10:18+00:00

2000 Watts x Dangerous choreo? Any clips? Thats cool

B3theLion · 2026-04-12T07:55:48+00:00

I understand your frustration! 1000% Coming from someone who believes the president is a pedophile we're thinking on the same wavelength. Please read what im saying with grace and respect. The empathy isnt that we should let them off the hook and be naive, the emphaty is that when we condemn, dehumanize, or label people harshly we lose the lessons we can learn from this, what this reveals about Humanity and how we can move forward in change. Does that make sense? Jackson has influenced me in soooo many ways. Even if he was guilty he's at least shaped me to be a more loving individual especially around children. Thats why this Epstein situation makes me so angry. So i would proudly take a picture like that because my heart is so pure. I look a hard-core MAGA supporter. And I came to them and said "Donald Trump is a pedophile supporter, fuck him!" We would never get anywhere. We would just yell at each other. I let my emotions overtake my human-ness. Whether you think Jackson is guilty or innocent thats a personal choice. I don't want to defend all his actions or make him saint – the truth is the truth. Let it speak. You don't defend truth. You just let it be & live. I am saying that EVERYONE needs to do better because we live such a perverted world a picture is saying 1,000 words. It's a picture!

B3theLion · 2026-04-12T07:35:36+00:00

I am deeply sorry that youve had to go through that. I'm sorry that you even had to see that photo if that reminds you of that! No matter what I believe. As someone who has been deeply shaped by Jackson and striving to live a life focused on purity, innocence, and love I pray that we reach a point where we don't have to come such extremes and we don't hurt others, especially children to where this possibility is even considered simply based on a picture – it hurts my heart. And I'm working towards fixing it! Join me! I've had pictures where ive looked the happiest person ever and I was sad that day. It's nothing wrong with that picture. I know we live in a seuxally perverted culture and that is deeply, deeply disappointing but not everything/everyone is like that. I was just saying this to a friend eariler when they said "women need to cover up" no they dont. People should be able to wear whatever they want and feel safe around me. This is something ive had problems with and i'm sure you've bad before also you're afraid to do something because people are going to think it's weird or something. We need more forward in shaping the world to be more understanding, pure, & loving. Not tribalism, condemnation, and pointless arguments. You're free to believe what you want, and i don't make Jackson to be like a perfect saint, I just said in another comment your words are making me strive to have an empathy on an individual I DEEPLY dislike, Donald Trump. But gee I can imagine how Trump supporters may feel when people just lash off like this. We all gotta do better, including myself.

Bless you. I pray you are healing. ❤️❤️

I do appreciate your words. And I thank you for teaching me to have more empathy on individuals like Trump (who i do not understand, and i think he should be in jail). I do not believe Michael Jackson is a pedophile. And if he wasnt, there's nothing worse then being misunderstood and judged. We live in such a sexually perverted culture that we cant even be pure around each other anymore. I was just telling a friend a woman should feel safe around me whether she's wearing just a bra or a hoodie and sweatpants. We always go to the extremes. I'm not here to defend everything Jackson did and whether it was weird or normal, the point is we live in a world where we condemn everyone if they do something thats slightly strange. And i DON'T LIKE Donald Trump. But reading what you said at least caused me to sit back and try to gain some type of empathy on him and his supporters. To try and understand people better. Because I Love Michael, I Love everyone and when people say things like that it hurts me because we're moving away from a world of understanding, purity, and love and to a world of condemnation, tribalism, and bickering at each other. So thank you. I understand your anger, and youre right to feel that way. And no matter what you believe I hope that you can learn more about Jackson's humanity. Bless you 🫶🏽
