Where are you reading these things? are you in an alternative Michael Jackson thread that nobody else knows about? who ever said his past work sucks now because he was accused of stroking little penis? also, If the debate bores you... why engage in it? For the record... MJ is an extremely talented man who kicked ass in the 60's/70's/80's and part of the 90's. His reputation as a human being was tarnished... his reputation as a musician still stands as a positive but if the man doesn't put out anything worth listening to soon people will wonder if he still has it.

Touchy, much?

So your point is that MJ is a talented musician with a tarnished reputation but that as of this moment in time his reputation as a musician still stands despite it? Funny, I'm sure thats what I just said.

Also I'd like to point out that no one here said his previous work sucked because of what hes been accused of. Nor did I suggest that they did. Thats a presumption you made and then slated me for. This thread and the people in it arent the only people to have this same discussion, you know? "This" Michael Jackson debate does not mean the MB Michael Jackson debate.

his reputation as a man who created a lot of memorable music in his lifetime still stands... his last release not so much, and his future releases will determine whether or not he is capable of making "memorable" music again.

Just going by what you said... perhaps I misunderstood?
