Intervjuer med The Weeknd, Questlove, Kobe Bryant, Pharrell och många fler om "The King of Pop".

Den amerikanska kanalen Showtime sänder den 5:e februari en dokumentär av Spike Lee om “kungen av pop”; Michael Jackson. I dokumentären ser vi bland annat kommentarer av The Weeknd, David Byrne, Questlove samt intervjuer med Pharrell, Kobe Bryant, Mark Ronson, John Legend, L.A. Reid med flera.

“MICHAEL JACKSON’S JOURNEY FROM MOTOWN TO OFF THE WALL contains a wealth of footage, including material from Michael’s personal archive, and in his own words. The documentary also includes interviews with prominent entertainment and sports stars including Lee Daniels, The Weeknd, Pharrell Williams, Kobe Bryant, Misty Copeland, Mark Ronson, John Legend, Questlove, L.A. Reid, and more, as well as his parents Katherine and Joe Jackson, and his brothers Jackie and Marlon Jackson. Off The Wall created a whole new category in pop music. Written by Michael Jackson, the first single from Off The Wall, “Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough,” earned Jackson his first Grammy® and was his first single to hit No. 1 in the U.S. and internationally as a solo artist. The album was an enormous commercial success; as of 2014 it is certified eight times platinum in the United States and has sold more than 30 million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling albums of all time. Off The Wall not only “invented pop music as we know it,” wrote Rolling Stone, it transcended music and entertainment altogether, becoming an important moment in African-American history.”
