Michael Jackson discusses music industry struggles
and Tommy Mottola is a devil.
I'm not supposed to say
what I'm gonna say right now but I have to let you in on a secret.
Say it! Please don't videotape what I'm going to say, okay?
Because the companies take advantage of them. They really do.
And Sony,
Sony being, you know, being the artist that I am at Sony,
I've generated several billion dollars for Sony. Several billion.
And they really thought that my mind is always on music and dancing and
it usually is but they never thought that this performer,
myself, would out think them.
So we can't let them get away with
what they're trying to do because now I'm a free agent.
I just owe Sony one more album. It's just a box set, really.
It's with two new songs which I've written ages ago
because every album that I record I write, like, literally,
I'm telling you the truth, I write at least a hundred and
twenty songs every album I do.
So I can do the box set and just give them any two songs.
So I'm leaving Sony a free agent,
owning half of Sony.
So I own half of Sony's and I'm leaving them and they,
they're very angry at me because of it but I just, I just did good business,
you know? Tell him!
Tell him, Micah! Tell the story!
But, um, so the way they get revenge is to try and
destroy my album.
But, but I've always said, you know, art, art, good art never dies.
Thank you. I love Unbreakable, you know?
Turn that off,
please. No, what, no, what, I don't mind. Tape it. Oh!
Michael is getting gangsta today!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Mariah Carey, after divorce and time,
came to me crying.
Crying, she was crying so bad I had to hold her.
And she said to me that this is an
evil man and Michael, this man, follows me, she said.
He taps her phones and he's very,
very evil and she doesn't trust him and he is a horrible human being and we,
we have to continue our drive until he's terminated.
Oh!
There you go!
We can't allow him to do this to great artistry, we just can't.
I just want you to know
I appreciate everything you've done,
you've been amazing.
You're so loyal, Diana,
everybody, Waldo,
all the people here, I love you all, you've been amazing. I love you.
