In a piece called "Beyond Great" written for the Huffington Post Grammy-award winning music producer Jermaine Dupri, wrote the following nonsense about shattered pop icon Michael Jackson:
"The whole world loved Mike, and Mike gave that love for his fans back tenfold. No one, not even President Obama, can top that."
KING OF FLOP
Jackson changed everything in his tragic life except his character and inner self. Confusing his spirit with his flesh he remained an untamed adolescent until he died his body and soul eaten away and deformed by self-destructive vice. No angel, no saint, no mortal god; just a miserable, ruined self-indulgent child with charisma, gifted feet and great singing style, lost in a wretched body that could never please his empty mind-whatever was its shape or color, whatever was its look or style.
Jackson returned the great love and adulation that he received from his fans by giving them a worthless man ruined by drugs and kiddie sex that no one dare emulate lest he be mad. His death was not a loss. Nothing of real value was taken from this world. We are none the worse with him being gone.
Postscript l:
Dupri says that Obama couldn't outdo Jackson in returning the love shown by his fans. Dupri is right. What else can you expect from a man whose heart is packed in ice.
Postscript ll:
The question now is does the death of the King of Flop have meaning for the King of Fools in the White House? That will be the subject of my next work.
