Shamone

Michael Jackson’s homage to Mavis Staples, an extremely underrepresented soul singer, used in place of ‘come on’ or ‘looky here’... it was Michael’s was of staying true to his roots coming up on the Chitlins Circuit before moving from Motown to Epic and subsequently changing his sound and appearance to break racial barriers and appeal to a wider audience. Michael was a huge prankster and loved putting Easter eggs in his work, as well as never renouncing his roots, despite what people were saying about him at the time and his severe body and facial dysmorphia. Now we all know he had Vitiligo AND Lupus, both autoimmune disorders, but back in the 90’s it was “Wacko Jacko strikes again”. We behaved egregiously and made him suffer for his art when he gave of himself so completely... it left him in chronic pain, crippling loneliness, insomnia and misery, and we did nothing to prevent his death. We lost one of the greatest performers who will ever grace this earth. Requiscat in Pace ad Eternam, Frater. 💙🕴🏻👑
