Above the fray.
I want to say this respectfully as I have a portion of my life dedicated to the intellectually disabled.

I don't see how autism is relevant to this post and why those on the spectrum feel the need to explain that they're going in depth on something by leading with that..many on the coli are on the autism spectrum so I'd like to know if anyone is comfortable responding.
I get the impression that he leads with that to distinguish his channel from the other millions of content creators, and possibly to help him draw donations from viewers .

Also, possibly to pre-empt people leaving comments asking if he's on the spectrum

It was more like an exchange than a swaggerjack because Alfonzo had borrowed some elements from Michael too. But Mike like most of his projects had his albums already had sophisticated conceptualization in place already.

But damn Alfonzo is a name I haven't heard in a minute dude is bop in his own right.

This shyt came out in (1978) before Alfonzo Jones (1982), he(Michael) clearly has the basis of his OWN singing style here.



Off The Wall was released in 1979 (Before Alonzo)



:aicmon:

People should stop just repeating any old bullshyt they come across,

Michael Jackson had 5 Full Solo Albums before "Alfonzo Jones"

"Alfonzo Jones" 9 times out of 10 was INSPIRED by Michael

Breh,

That is the shyt that bothers me the most.

Anytime I hear something that is "New Found Knowledge", I go and research whether or not the shyt is true or not, if there is any actual evidence for it.

A lot of people hear some new shyt, and go...

:ohhh: :ehh:

Then don't even bother to find out if the shyt is real or not, SMH!

Something as simple as finding out the date of a claim, is all it takes.

Intellectual laziness.

Only person Michael Jackson copied was James Brown, his hero :camby:

James Brown
Jackie Robinson
Sammy Davis Jr
Diana Ross
Fred Astaire

These are the performers Michael both personally and publicly acknowledged as huge inspirations to his style. Motown and Barry Gordy also made the early Jackson 5 sound an updated riff of Frankie Lymon & The Teenagers style and sound. Michael also learner alot from Stevie Wonder and various other Motown performers that he was around during his time. Michael was a child prodigy and really all of his brothers were prodigies in their own way, but he did utilize the five I mentioned (mostly James and Jackie) as the sounding board for his start.

Little Michael Jackson has a whole other career over Adult Michael
