Definitely a controversial figure, who “helped” shaping Michael Jackson that we all know and love into who he was. But knowing how it affected Michael in the ong term is just sad and heartbreaking 💔 and you just ask yourself: “Was it worth it? Could there be a different outcome?” ig we’ll never know

It would be interesting to hear about Joe’s upbringing! Not excusing all the wrong he did it would just show how he became the man he was!

I don’t think Michael wanted to be a performer. He learned to be a performer. He had natural talent but he was also just a child

A poor yet hard working father who saw the talent that their children had and guided them to be THE BEST that they could be. It took discipline. Perhaps if Joe was not strict, the tables could have turned the other way.

Micheal said that when his father would walk into a room he would throw up and even passed out once, he was terrified of Joe.
