This sophisticated, no-holds-barred biography of Michael Jackson by his brother Jermaine is filled with keen insight, rich anecdotes, and behind-the-scenes detail.
Older than Michael by four years, Jermaine knows the real Michael as only a brother can. In this raw, honest, and poignant account, he reveals Michael the private person, not Michael “the King of Pop.” From their shared childhood and the Jackson 5 years through Michael’s phenomenal solo career, his loves, his suffering, and his tragic end, Jermaine doesn’t flinch from tackling the tough issues: the torrid press, the scandals, the allegations, the court cases, the internal politics, the ill-fated This Is It tour, and the disturbing developments in the days leading up to Michael’s death.
But where previous works have presented only thin versions of a media construct, Jermaine provides a rare glimpse into the complex heart, mind, and soul of a brilliant but sometimes troubled entertainer. As a witness to history on the inside, Jermaine is the only person qualified to deliver the real Michael and reveal what made him tick: his private opinions and unseen emotions through the most headline-making episodes of his life.
His hope is to foster a true and final understanding of Michael: who he was, what he was, and what shaped him.
