Thriller 40th Anniversary

I heard somewhere that Freddie’s mother actually sent the tapes to a fan
I heard that it was Brian's mother who sent the tapes to a fan, who gave copies of the 2 to people, and those ended up leaking, no clue how much truth there is to this story.

Does anybody know where all the early leaks came from like starlight and the Billie Jean demos?

Dear Estate of Michael Jackson,

As fans of Michael Jackson, we are perplexed by the way you conduct yourselves. Although we are not affiliated with the estate or Michael Jackson during his lifetime, we feel that you disregard the fact that we are the ones purchasing his/your releases, merchandise, and attending the MJ musical. While there have been commendable projects in the past, there have also been questionable ones that have left Michael Jackson fans with doubts. We believe that you are aware of these projects, so we will not elaborate further.

As a fan community, we would appreciate it if you were more forthcoming when it comes to releases or the reasons why certain releases are not being made. Michael Jackson remains the most successful entertainer of all time, and it is baffling that none of his concerts have been officially released in high definition. Each of his tours deserves an HD release, and his music videos should also receive better treatment. The younger generation is accustomed to high-quality content and does not watch VHS copies. If Michael Jackson were still with us, we are confident that he would have authorized the release of such material by now.

While we are a patient fanbase, we implore you to be transparent if you cannot or do not want to release certain items. We have received numerous empty promises from you over the last decade. For instance, the Thriller 40 Documentary was announced for January, and it is now mid-April, with no update or explanation as to why it is delayed or not coming. We are not irate that it has not arrived yet; rather, we are dismayed that you are not transparent enough to inform us of what is happening. A simple social media post takes a mere five minutes to compose. Yet, you appear to overlook the importance of keeping us informed, despite the fact that we are the community that has supported your releases over the last few years.

We hope that you can provide us with a more detailed response to this email rather than merely stating that you are unable to discuss certain topics. Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,
The MJ Fan Community.

we all should send this email.
i think there is no other way but email-bombing the estate...
they will not give us answers otherwise
 
They already know people want it. The twitters are overflowing with these types of statements. They simply disregard MJ fans till they can get the blue ocean of the general public invested. Which will take, a little more effort than a biopic but I guess it'll be a start. It's certainly the next generation who can take the reins.

My thing is, how much does Branca himself personally believe in MJs innocence? How often do we hear his thoughts on all of that, to know he's in his court. This is not an accusation, I just would like it laid out.

Here's what's truly funny about this: even though it is their job and objective, it is literally us who are making new fans come along. Kids get to know Michael's work through the endless fan channels on YouTube, for example.
If the new generation is getting to know the man and become fans as we are, it's all because of us and our work of passing the torch.

The promotion of MJ always helps. You can also just say plain ol' radio does that.
 
I'm pretty sure I'm young enough to know what young people do with themselves. Laughing but serious, as the kids say.
