SUM UP!
His father driving a station wagon with a U-Haul
a warm-up act for EXPO; became a hot act and EXPO wasn't the same again
Jessie was wonderful to the Jackson family
Victory Tour; MJ was full grown; they all had prayer together in Kansas City; Thriller had won more Grammys in the history of music; very hard to do anything; press sleeping in your bushes, hiding in your trees; world was really going wild at that time; Dodger's Stadium eight sold out shows; all his dreams came true
Jessie: Life isn't a straight line; your either in a storm or going into a storm; test what you are really made of;
The lowest point that's he's going through is right now what he's going through, the pain, he knows in his heart that he's innocent
He's handling it by using ppl that has had to handle it in the past. He's talking to Mandela. Watching some documentary on PBS. All these stories gives him strength. He came at the tail of the civil rights movement. He's a 70's child.
How does his spirit handle seeing the accusers come in to court. He believes in Jehovah God, he's a warrior, he's still a human being, he prays alot.
MJ broke= Michael said that he's not broke. One of the their many schemes to embarrass him and drag him through the mud.
Sony catalogue= Beatles music, Little Richards, Sly and the Family, so many Elvis song, alot of conspiracy going on about it as we speak!
He was coming out of the shower, and he fell. He's very fragile, he bruised his lung very badly, still in very much pain; going to court everday in alot of pain. The doctor said that it can be very dangerous. He's spitting out blood. There is no faking of this at all. There was a scan done. It's bright, bright red, a huge gash over his forehead. They're treating it, he has medicine for it.
MJ cried at court----he was in pain, he was sitting there hurting; he could do nothing but sit there and cry because the pain was so great; had nothing to do with what was going inside the court but personal pain.
what do you want ppl to know??? To be strong for him, pray for him, his children and his family, don't believe what they here, just because it's throught print doesn't it make it as gospel, feeding frenzy because of his celebrity. They turn this into money, biggest rating, celebrity is something that he has to go through; he'll be vindicated, he believes in God.
Appearance with children----will there be anything that he'll do different. There is alot of conspiracy going on...is conspiracy connected to the trial, the catalogue, etc. MJ said it's very delicate and he can't talk about it, he's under gag order.
Expect next from MJ: he's a person of the arts, he loves the arts very much, he's a musician, a writer, a composer, a producer. He loves arts very much.
He knows who he is inside and outside. He'll continue to go on with his dreams in life.
Dreams now= film, great plans for Africa, ppl flying out to see him since he's been going on with now
Next immediate project= Tsunami song
Planning a resort in Africa, hotels, etc.
He loves Africa, him and his children will fly there; he spends alot of his vacation there and his money
They never show the beaches, the urban, the beautifulness of Africa.
The world is jealous of Africa. alot of the Bible took place in Africa; Egypt is Africa;
His final message is that he loves all his fans; he's completely, completely innocent; it's about CONSPIRACY!

Here is another summary
Summary (not verbatim, note from note, word from word)
Jesse asked if he remembered when they first met at Jessie's office
MJ said they were wearing bellbottoms
His mom made the clothes
MJ said that Jessie had a big afro at the time! Jessie said "don't remind them"
Talking about the shows they did when they were little
MJ fave artists: Diana Ross, James Brown, Jackie Wilson, Sammy Davis Jr.
Moves from Jackie Wilson and all these great entertainers
Susanne dePasse was the manager at the time and godmother to the J5; very instrumental in their careers; still a friend; haven't seen her in awhle though
MJ around 8-9 greatest memory was his father and his band coming around and playing music; dancing around to the beat of the washing machine; the beats of a marching band
All these great artists were friends of his; and he got to see all these artists from the wings; they were show stoppers
to always thank God for your talents and ability; always humbled for what was given up above
stopped going to school formerly when he was very young; 4th or 5th grade; was tutored the rest of his life; 3 hours of schooling, concerts, traveling, recording the next J5 then a Michael Jackson album; always busy; talking about looking outside at the park across the street and wishing he could go over there and play; working hard all the time
Didn't have a childhood; try to compensate for the loss, later on trying to catch up. that's why you see a theme park; he has Neverland for the ill children and disadvantaged children that can come and enjoy it.
Did Tito and Jermaine give him some experience of childhood by being the little brother. MJ talks about that they had some fun, but it was always work, and fans everywhere
Jackie and Tito won the pillow fights.
Greatest influence to write music: the Factory, Hollier, DeHolland---they're amazing, love the Beatles music, show tunes music, love melody, Irish, English, African music, melodies. Africa music was the beginning
Never studied dancing; came natural, couldn't tie him down; if someone plays music, he automatically starts dancing to the beat; talking about Fred Astaire; FA said that he'll be a very special star;
Moonwalk came from black children in the ghettos. He said he can't take the credit for it.
He watched the Soul Train. He waited for the dancing line. He was mesmerized by studying the rythms
He's never been a great eater, great admirer of food, thanks God for giving man the gift of food. Said his parents has always had a problem with him with his weight. He said his health is perfect, that he's not starving. He has God's medicince, instead of man's chemicals.
Greatest highpoints--- 80's Off The Wall, important point because he got to write his own music, talking about QUincy; setting mental goals as an artist; wasn't happy how OTW was accepted. OTW=10 million; he set his heart on making Thriller to be better; he said he would see graffitti on the walls in Encino that "Disco sucks, disco that" He said that disco just wanted ppl to dance
Thriller is the biggest selling album of this time. It's a pinnacle
Pull celebrities together to create We Are The World. Q called and asked him to write a song about what was going on in Africa at the time. Q said let Lionel Richie to help him. Lionel would come over and help him. Lionel and MJ been friends with years. MJ wasn't happy with what they all did, so he went in the studio by himself to recreate it.
Break....
