This Estate, this Estate 🤦🏿‍♂️

Is this the point where Paris starts the takeover of the estate, fires Branca and McClain and brings in a proper legal team? I'm praying for that day!

Hopefully she will & stays safe as well. We know what happens when the jacksons fight

Is this actually possible?

I believe the children begin to "inherit" the estate agent 30 and fully take over age 40

What plastic toys are you talking about?

I dunno. There was one at some point on the last year. Could have been a Jam statue. I think the manufacturer even came on here for some damage limitation.

I wonder how they will deal with the likes of Wade or savvy record bosses

Those aren't made by the estate though

I have never heard anybody refer to it as the jam statue lol. I always say history but now that I think about it...it really is the "jam statue"

But they charge more (a lot more) because it's "officially licensed".

I realise the estate don't ever manufacture anything. But come on, let's not try to defend these greedy companies who try to take advantage of people.

I dunno. Maybe Brace Yourself. I just think of him standing there for ages in sunglasses after getting toastered. A couple of songs after Jam he puts on the Smooth Criminal jacket.

I'm not defending anyone, I'm just saying

This week marked the anniversary of “Cry,” the second single from Invincible, Michael Jackson’s final studio album. While the short film for “Cry” has never been a fan-favorite due to Michael’s absence on screen, the song remains deeply important: a humanitarian anthem calling for unity, healing, and collective responsibility.
But instead of a moment of celebration, the Estate’s anniversary post triggered a wave of backlash—again—after yet another low-quality, pixelated video clip was uploaded to Michael’s official channels. What should have been a simple tribute quickly turned into a comment-section battlefield.

The Estate highlighted “Cry” with a brief caption asking fans to share facts about the track. Playing in the background, however, was a blurry, blocky, visibly degraded version of the short film, the kind of quality that immediately clashes with the legacy of an artist whose visuals defined generations.

Complicating matters further is the Estate’s recent series of AI-upscaled ‘4K’ videos. Instead of improving clarity, many of these so-called restorations are washed out, overly smoothed, and stripped of the visual depth of the original films. Fans have repeatedly pointed out that these artificial enhancements remove detail, distort color, and flatten the artistry, yet they continue to be rolled out as “upgrades.”

In the end, this anniversary ended up saying more about the Estate’s execution than about “Cry” itself. The fans did what they always do: protected Michael Jackson’s legacy, even at the pixel level.

I’m surprised TDCAU wasn’t about relationships

Looks like the competition has learned well from the greatest estate of all time on how to piss off the fan base.

I get second hand embarrassment

It´s giving smalltown struggling, raggedy newspaper ("Käseblatt" = cheesy paper) that isn´t able to afford proofreading anymore.

With this Estate, one should be glad they didn't write Dirty Diane.

At least it isn’t AI-Generated.

some responses to Londell's tweet

"Its the older fans that went to the gigs, it's the older fans who bought the physical media, and still want to. Of course, everyone is welcome, but realise what you have and what you should be doing with it."


"you clearly say that you will not open the vauly. Ok. wouldn't that be fun if some if these "older fans" you despise decided to stop playing by the rules and put online the hundreds of unreleased songs and thousands of hours of live recordings they have on their hard drives ?"
