CHEAT TWEET: “If he wanted this music out it would have been out,” @jermjackson5 to @TheInsider on Michael Jackson’s #XSCAPE #Insider
May 16, 2014 (Los Angeles, CA) –THE INSIDER’s Kevin Frazier sat down with Michael Jackson’s brother, Jermaine Jackson, in which he opened up on his true feelings on The King of Pop's posthumous album Xscape. Jermaine explains to Frazier that he believes his family should have been consulted about the album stating, “Nobody understands the genius of Michael. His brothers do. It’s almost like me telling you to go rebuild the Taj Mahal.” Jermaine explains that this includes pop sensation Justin Timberlake, who collaborated on the single Love Never Felt So Good, stating, “I love Justin Timberlake. He’s great and everything but they don’t understand the genius behind [Michael]…Nobody knew Michael’s vision, his motive, his direction, his reasoning for creating this music...If he wanted this music out it would have been out and the level of excellence is not there. Michael's on a whole other level…When [an artist] plans to do a masterpiece their focus [is not] on profit, they focus on making this the best they can possibly make it... I just feel that they’re sticking these things out there and [it] has nothing to do with motive [and] nothing to do with continuing his legacy, his genius. The bottom line is profit.” Jermaine goes on to say, “Jackie, myself, Tito, Marlon, Randy we helped build that legacy, we helped build that genius in him and to not consult us or ask us anything we have a problem with it…It [is] just great to hear him back on the radio.”
