Can you separate the art from the artist? How do you feel about R Kelly now? Oj ? Michael Jackson? Marilyn Manson? Or st least their legacy.? We all have 2 sides. Noone is 100 pure. We are human. #conversationstarter #thoughts #art #artists #controversial

Michael Jackson most likely got character assassinated once he saw how the entire industry was bleeding him dry and controlling him and how horrible they were treating kids. As adults many who made allegations later publicly apologized to him that they were manipulated and told what to say. I'd assume every one in the industry to be a potential abuser until proven otherwise but the entire child abuser narrative around MJ just doesn't hold to scrutiny. Won't come in defense of anyone else in that list.
