#smth that Resonates smth that's Familiar. in art that wasn't his he found smth that says 'this is me'. that's such an important 4 thing -#identity.#& that was another intense focus - even as a part of the j5 he has this established case of standing out & that was understandably carried#the whole way thru his whole career. fighting against motown to have more freedom in their outputs - to imprint more of his individuality.#wanting the world to see what artistry he's rlly capable of. wanting to finally make the world see what he has to offer-this is michael.#the child star not as he was sold as but who he really is - what he had learned & how he applied these learnings combined w/what he wants#the world to learn from and about him as well. that was literally his whole thing-how he was perceived shouldn't b the same w/how he was#perceived before & how other stars were perceived-acceptable. yes 70s-80s it's still. well. very PR very keeping an image safe. but there's#always a sense of breaking out. the cracks; the eccentricities he never defends & acknowledges. it screams out: this is what i have to#offer & you have to not only accept it but understand it. i will not be changing.#god. in everything. being inspired but with his own flavor being different being a trailblazer being his Own Thing. he definitely does not#just follow what is 'acceptable'. hello. what is his controversies about. black or white song & music video making white ppl clutch their#pearls so hard. being the 1st black man to involve coherent storylines in music videos & being the 1st black man to have said videos be#shown in mtv where they only showcase the works of white artists. everything about the history era. everything about tdcau. his#noncomformity in regards to a lot of things. molding himself into smth just simple & immediately acceptable was never his thing.#where did this conclusion come from.#and all this therefore feeding into his the ever-present feeling of being misunderstood. the sense that he can offer something special that#no one else can but in turn therefore most ppl just. Do Not understand him the way he wants to be understood. all the layers all the#details of who he is from what he does. to be Seen. his need to be seen & understood & therefore loved as he is. god#& sometimes. the Fantasy Self. the projection to fictional characters; the whimsical approach to some situations. the emulation of#childhood heroes - astaire & brown & chaplin. the fantasies the daydreaming#all this 2 say. he's a 4w3. i'm fuming#*sntaches him* ur mj privileges r over u don't understand him. no oen does. like i do#[this is a joke] [ppl can interpret him in many ways as long as. ukno facts & evidences. him as a 7 tho. seems like such a bad read. no#one understand him. no one. alexa blast dangerous & history album /j]#no hate. to anyone. i only hate the thoughts of. That. why am i angry ab a pseudo-scientific model of personalities anywy#u can develop an interest over a legendary pop icon. but watch out
