Randy Jackson: “My brother was being threatened…”

Category: Justice, Quotes About MJ, Videos — Seven @ 5:23 am
•​
This is Part 1 of the two videos from Randy Jackson’s appearance on CNN on Thursday, June 10th where he talks about the investigation into Michael’s murder and how and why it needs to go far beyond just Conrad Murray. What Randy says here corroborates with what at least two others have also said about AEG/$ony and possibly others regarding Michael being threatened and/or manipulated into doing these shows. Starting around 3:13 – 3:16 in the video, Randy says that Michael was being threatened with loss of his home, his children, and his assets, if he didn’t do what AEG wanted. Part Two of the interview is here.
Tom Mesereau stated when asked about the case that if Michael was being manipulated or controlled by people, then that was something that needed to be investigated. Well, it absolutely appears that Michael Jackson was being manipulated, controlled, and threatened by AEG et al. in regards to performing the 50 O2 shows. Whether or not he was being manipulated or enabled with drugs is a subject of much debate.
However, it is clear that Michael was being FINANCIALLY abused, manipulated, controlled and threatened by them.
If he was taken from us because of greedy, manipulative, unethical people, then they should be pursued. -Tom Mesereau
​
Here’s what Randy said on Thursday. Note what he says starting around 3:13 – 3:16:






And below is another YouTube video where another person says that Michael was being told he had to do all of the shows or he’d lose his catalog, etc. This video was included in my previous post, ‘In Vulture-Speak, 10 shows is 50‘. Once again, please excuse the language in one part. But do note the part where threats are mentioned starting around 2:09 of the video. The person talking states that “His advisors” told him he’d lose his catalogs if he didn’t do all 50 shows. Who has control of those catalogs? $ony.
See the section entitled “$ony/ATV again” in my piece “It’s a Small World After All” for details of when and how $ony (by inserting themselves into Michael’s financial business with Fortress) got control of the catalogs back in 2006-2007. And along with gaining control of those catalogs, they also got control of Michael because $ony knew that those catalogs meant a lot to him even beyond monetary value.






In addition to these two video accounts, another person who was there working with Michael during these rehearsals for the O2 shows, also said that AEG were manipulating Michael. AEG were paying the rent on his Carolwood home, paying for his children’s schooling, etc. And this person has said that AEG threatened to ‘pull the rug out‘ so-to-speak, if Michael didn’t capitulate to everything they wanted him to do.
Michael was clearly being financially and emotionally threatened and controlled by these people. This is now at least three separate accounts from three different people, one of them Michael’s own little brother, all saying the same thing. And then there’s Leonard Rowe if we want to add a fourth:
In my opinion, AEG had a contract with Michael that was nothing less than a cocked financial gun pointed to his head. It is my belief that he was being totally exploited. -Leonard Rowe
​
Again, see my piece ‘It’s a Small World After All‘ for more background and detail of how Michael got hooked up with AEG and how $ony got control of Michael and his catalogs through the web of media and financial entities swarming around him during the last months and years of his life.
And all this is just “conspiracy theory“? I don’t think so. The dots clearly connect.




I came across a Gerald Posner vid & he says he has sources saying MJ wanted to get out of the contract:




 
Randy was present when MJ was threatened ? doubtful

Leoanard Rowe ? LOL, the guy who wanted a piece of the cake along Joe and Alloco with their AEG concert.

Read the AEG contract. No mention of this 10 concerts.

All these arguments emerged after June 25th ; they can say whatever he want, he's not anymiore here to affirm or infirm their stories.

maybe you did'nt her the fans that were around michael they said michael told them he wanted to do 10 show's, regardless what aeg contract said, michael was the one telling aeg he wanted to do 10 show but they did not llisten to what michael wanted, and that is why michael announced 10 show, I believe randy about michael being threatened use your own sense. and now leonard rowe have a book out saying aeg and team threatened michael and its leonard rowe inside knowledge.
 
OK, MJ was too stupid to understand the AEG contract.

Leonard Rowe is really a honest man. LOL
this guy wanted his share in these concerts and the AGE concert.
At this time, he didn't have any concerns about his health, only when he was fired

Yes... I posted in another thread, but I'll post here too:


On my flight over, I kept thinking of all the things that Michael and I had discussed privately. All of the suspicious activities that had transpired months and weeks prior to his death played out in my mind over and over again. People that Michael had vowed to never to do business with again, such as John Branca and Frank Delio, had suddenly been brought back into his life by Randy Phillips of AEG. We could never figure out why. Michael and I had discussed this on many occasions, and now that I can put it all together, I can see everything so clearly. At that time, we were never sure about John Branca, his former attorney, whom Michael had many problems with in the past that had cost him millions of dollars. But we had an idea about Frank Delio, his former manager. We strongly believed that Frank Delio was being brought back into the picture by Randy Phillips because of me. I was the only person around Michael that AEG and Randy Phillips did not control financially, and Randy Phillips, having known me for a few years, knew that I would possibly create a problem for him if he was not working in Michael Jackson's best interest. In my opinion I know now that he clearly wasn't. I can see now that I was going to interfere with their plans.
These suspicious activities have propelled me to write this book, to tell the world what is being hidden by the media and the powers that be in the entertainment industry. A great injustice is being played out daily, and I’m here to set the record straight. Michael Jackson, The King of Pop, in my opinion was murdered, and his words still haunt me today: “They want my catalogue (music publishing rights) Rowe, and they will kill me for it.” Few know this, but Michael owned fifty percent of Sony’s entire catalogue. He never wanted to sell it; he wanted to keep it for his children. The powers that be knew that Michael and The Michael Jackson name was worth billions and billions of dollars, and he was worth more to them dead than alive. With him dead they would be able to move in and control the wealth that his name and his brand would bring for years and years to come. I truly believe that is exactly what they are doing today with the benefit of a phony and fraudulent will. The powers that be have been trying to keep me quiet by committing slander against me, and trying to prevent me from doing interviews on the talk show circuit. I must confess, I am not one to be intimidated easily or one who will back down quickly. Michael can’t speak now, but I can…and I will.
This story is a story that must be told. The public as well as Michael’s millions of fans deserve the right to know what really happened to him. Michael may have been a Jackson, but he belonged to the world. This story is laced with discriminatory treatment towards African Americans and minorities in the entertainment industry.
In my opinion, AEG had a contract with Michael that was nothing less than a cocked financial gun pointed to his head. It is my belief that he was being totally exploited. This book is a true account of what really happened to Michael Jackson, The King of Pop and an up close look at the evil side of the entertainment industry.

At the press conference, Michael says 10 concerts. I always believed that there was something strange going on behind the scenes for these concerts. :bugeyed

All this is unbearable. :( Truth has to appear. :pray:
 
MJ said 10, because nobody knew if people was interested

same thing for TII the movie, only 2 weeks was announced at first.

It's a marketing strategy

I know it's a marketing strategy, but in this case, it is really impossible to say with such certainty about things, because we really do not know what was happening behind the scenes. For me, 50 concerts with those crazy dates, was to challenge human nature.

And I remember at that time was told that Michael complained. He said something like: "I went to sleep with 10 concerts and woke up with 50. "Well, something was really going on and a problem arose.

And in the extras dvd movie, someone of AEG I do not remember the name, talk about it. I do not remember exactly what he said, but he says something like "we can add more dates"... because they knew it tickets running out. But the way he said it seems that they decided it alone. There seemed to me that Michael was consulted about it. Anybody remember that?

Michael was not stupid, dr thome and team druged him and controlled him that is what I believe happend , this happened to michael before in another situation michael mentioned he did not remember signing certain contracts and he had been taking medication there is a video with michael saying this. leonard rowe has a shady past thats true but michael did go to a meeting with joe leonard rowe AEG randy phillips an I believe allgood entertainment the man from allgood said he overherd michael tell rowe that he only agreed to do ten shows and he wated leonard rowe help, so this supports rowe claims that michael told him that he only wanted to do ten shows and the fans that were around michael said the samething.

Not even close IMO. He was fired for plagiarism, alot of writers have that problem including VP Biden, historian Doris Kearns Goodwin- doesn't mean that he doesn't have sources.

I think he's had some good stories on this case, like this article describing the cozy relationship between Hodgman & Murray's attorney:

http://www.thedailybeast.com/blogs-and-stories/2010-02-04/the-jackson-prosecutions-internal-war/

He says at one point about 1/2 way in the vid (3rd vid from 1st post) he has a dozen sources & then 6 - that were on the payroll that say MJ negotiated with Phillips across a table for 10 concerts - 5 day breaks between each one & only wanted 10. That seems to corroborate what the FF's say & if Mj wanted to back out on some or all of concerts, my bet is he was threatened by Phillips. Phillips has said he (AEG) was taking a big chance on Michael - when you're taking a big chance, you have a backup plan for that worst case scenario.

I really wanted to comment about it. But I'm tired of personal attacks.
Well... let's give it a try! :fear:

I believe Michael was very fragile emotionally and physically. But it takes a lot to understand that I guess! And I totally believe in what TINI group says. I always have.
And seriously, the more I read about all this, the more I believe Michael was exhausted, being pushed and nervous/scared. And sometimes I think about the possibility "I'm done". It makes me cry!

>Let me make it clear (again) that I see him as a human being, not a super hero.< I say this with respect. I am not attacking anyone/any opinion here.

I'm kindly asking if anyone know WHY those catalogs meant SO MUCH to Michael...?? If it was keeping him from having some peace, why didnt he get rid of that sh*t?? I dont know... for me, the most important things in life are peace of mind and soul. Seriously! To hell with all that!!

Please explain that to me! Thank you!!

*broken heart*

Petals, these catalogs held an enormous emotional value for MJ. They were not just a source of money. They were a collection of music and soul. He protected these songs from being exploited. MJ gave Little Richard his songs (and control) back because he knew how artists are controlled in the music industry.

Hi Tiny Bird!

Thanks for explaining that to me!! I understand it a little better now.
But I still think that his life, safety and peace was priceless and worth so much more than catalogs!

I hope you guys understand what I'm saying! :heart:

:(

^^ Yes honey, but to give up something which has this enormous value to you for your easiness and safety and peace of mind...does that sound like Michael?
He knew that those who were after his catalogs were mean and ruthless people.
He also knew he had set the standard for being loyal to his principles, for fighting racism and artists to get back what is rightfully theirs..
Do you think he would ever give up on them?

Michael is not the first human being willing to die for his principles and hopefully not the last.

I posted this in another thread. If accurate, it explains his dream for his future

[When he agreed to the comeback shows in London, Jackson wanted it known that he was going back to work for the benefit of his three children -- he and his youngest son, Prince Michael II (also known as "Blanket") even showed up in matching black suits when he went to meet Phillip Anschutz, the tycoon whose company, AEG, was to stage the concerts.

Jackson explained that, more than the money, he wanted to show his kids what he had done in his heyday. But at the same time, his advisors say, he mused about a future when he would somehow buy back the other half of Sony/ATV and live off publishing riches in his big mansion in Las Vegas while making movies and doing other things.]

Then why did all the advertising say 10? All the posters, all the video spots.
Also, I am one of the people who saw the video of Michael outside the Burbank studio's talking to fans where he said he was mad at the promoter for booking him up for 50 shows. He did know how he would do it, as he wasn't a big eater and would need to put some weight on.
He was nearly in tears while he talked about it, clearly he was upset with the whole thing.
Around June 29th, 2009 that video disappeared! Someone has something to hide!

I saw the video too. Michael said he only wanted to do 10 shows in London. He was upset because they booked 50 in London. He said he wanted to do 10 shows in London and then take the show to other places. My impression from the video was that he was upset that they scheduled all 50 shows in one place.
I have spent quite a bit of time trying to find that video again with no luck. I can't believe some fan somewhere didn't record it. I think the reason it disappeared is that it was obviously recorded without Michael knowing about it. And supposedly the only people there were fans. I think it would have been easy for everyone else who was there to figure out who taped it.

Yes, but the owner must still have the video.

Together with the missing CCTV tapes I hope.
And a good explanation of who seized them and why.

yes, i hope those tapes were in the right hands.

however, right now, we can't be sure :(
 
^^Given the fact that the house was not sealed as scene of crime, I fear the tapes are in the wrong hands.
Reportedly, plenty of things gone missing from the house.Anything could have been removed or planted.

you are right.

but we don't know how quickly the tapes were taken.

but then, then suppose those tapes are in the right hands, they would have been turned over, unless...someone is waiting for the trial.....

we'll just wait and see during th trial. but my guesses are that they got in the wrong hands too :( All that extra security, and I'm sure they knew to grab those cameras QUICK before anyone else does.

Personally, I don't believe we will ever see that video again. We will never hear mention of the missing security tapes. They were destroyed. Who ever got rid of them had something to hide.
Parts of the video of Michael, was shown on some of the TV networks in the few days following his passing, they won't even admit they ever had it now. I have contacted them and they say, no such video exists. The rats suppressed it my opinion. It looked pretty bad for them to have video proof of Michael saying he was really angry at them for booking him up for 50 shows given the BS they are trying to sell as truth.
I will never forget seeing it however!
 
^^ I never knew the video was shown on tv networks. Do you remember which tv networks it was?

I know it wasn't cnn, because that's what I was watching those days and weeks.
