@@JackReacts904 Yep! Michael met her through Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins. He produced most of Michael's 2001 album "Invincible" and some of Brandy's biggest hits. She also does background vocals on Mike's other song "Unbreakable"
I love this story: "When I was 17, my producer Rodney Jerkins was working with Michael Jackson at the time," Brandy Norwood explained. "He knew how much I wanted to meet Michael Jackson so he says, 'Would you like to come and meet him?'" "My heart is beating so fast at this point," the singer says of the moment she met the 'Thriller' singer. "I'm like, 'Oh my God, it's happening', we're about to open the door and he's going to be in there." While Norwood's brother and fellow singer Ray J insisted that he remained calm during the meeting, Norwood herself admitted that she was unable to control her emotions and actually fainted."
Invincible was the most underrated album of his discography. Tommy Mottola and Sony wouldn’t back up with the album financially meaning less promotion and less music videos. It really ticked off Michael.
One More Chance was never finished due to the FBI raid on Neverland. They finished it after his passing to include on MJ’s Vision videography release. From what I understand, Unbreakable was intended to be the first single with a short film accompanying it. Sony completely fucked MJ.
@@JackReacts904 I knew you were Jewish blood, God bless the Jews bro in Lord Jesus name. Good reaction too, one of my favorite songs by MJ, R.I.P to one of the greatest entertainers ever if not the greatest entertainer ever. God bless ya'll.
The last lines where he sings "leave me alone".. is a throwback to his song Leave Me Alone from the Bad album. You should definitely react to that song
@@JackReacts904 the video for that song is amazing and ahead of his time. Video won a grammy and Kanye West said that it's his favourite music video in terms of visuals still to this day
@@JackReacts904 It's not really a throwback in terms of sound as Leave Me Alone is a pop song whereas this one is rnb. It's just the fact that he's saying leave me alone. That's the only link.
Invincible is really such an underrated album from Mike, I sincerely think it is one of his best works. Heaven can wait, butterflies, break of dawn... masterpieces!
Its co-produced by Michael and Teddy Riley. The song was originally written by Teddy Riley for Blackstreet. He played the beat and groove/melody for Michael and he fell in love with it instantly, so Teddy gave it to him and helped him produce it.
Michael Jackson was from the 60,70s disco era.... he expressed his emotion through sorrow! he was a true black man from that era.. he was constantly fearful of being or turning out like James Brown,Sammy Davis jr.,Etta James,Ella Fitzgerald,Duke Ellington,Otis Redding,Fat Domino,BB King,Nat King Cole, Chuck Berry Sam cooke and Little Richard....and many more he explained the music business steal and cheats artist.. especially the black artist....
React to "This Time Around" he got Biggie on the song. Someone in the comment told you to react to "Unbreakable" because Biggie was on it but it was simply a tribute from Michael to The Notorious B.I.G. when he passed away. B.I.G's vocal take is originally from a Shaquille O'Neal song. This Time Around is a real featuring, Michael had him for his HIStory album in 1995. Plus, it's a really underrated track from him. Pure anger in this one !
"Darkchild" Rodney Jerkins Produced this album..Micheal was more than a musician.. He was a modern day Mozart! Michael Jackson wanted to invent his own musical instrument.. or create a new musical note... He was truly a legend in the making...
Its sad how r&b, has gotten lost, because of rap music, because these vocals are incredible, you actually can listen to this with your kids, nowadays every song is filled with profanity and disrespect, and the young people think this is the norm, how sad, they need to learn so much about there own music, sometimes wanting to be different isn't always a good thing, go back to original r&b, that we were blessed with, it never gets old, why do they think so many people have copied it❤
Nice. Exactly the "almost like yelling" is what the most makes the song for me. The passion! I don't understand how a lot of the critics of the album say he was lazy with his vocals in this for example, resorting to shouting. It is passion! And it sounds amazing. My favourite part of the song although not the only reason I love the song.
The biggest reason I like your channel is because you say a lot of what I am feeling or thinking when listening to music especially MJ, so I really appreciate the way you breakdown these songs.
HI Jack! I came to your videos by chance. DOnt' watch many reaction videos, but something Just happened with yours. I suddenly felt I wanted to talk Mj with you because i felt emotional. long to explain, but.. I have been an MJ hardcore fan for 35 five years, and i am forty four.. Seeing someone discovering Mj in these days, the way you do. is rewarding.. I lived it through year by year in the middle of MJ mania.. and I remember how it felt evedry time we experienced every song for the first time .. and after some 10 concerts, I attended all front row.. It's all still in my system deep. So suddenly I felt the need to fill 4 decades of Mj's carrer. man I see you enjoy it and the more and thats so magical.. music, lyrics, Mj is timeless and so much. Iwish I could recommend certain things, to feed your soul, lesser known stuff which will make you appreciate MJ even more! go to the MJ lead vocal studio tracks.. from recording sessions, it would be great to see you react to acapella multitracks.! SOmething like baby be mine or Human nature you'd enjoy. THANKS for appreciating that music in the world of today.
This just goes to show you how versatile Michael was. 🔥 He'd put people in their feelings forreal. Love that you loved this, Jack. Definitely react to his "Butterflies".
Hey Jack, I am very new to your channel, but I'm so in love with it! I am a huge Michael Jackson fan for almost 11 years and I just love your reactions to his music and how much you appreciate him as this great artist that he was! Especially that you're also focus on his more underrated songs, who are masterpieces as well❤️ Also the way how you just really focus on the song is beautiful and I love how you just feeling those vibes, I can so relate to that when it comes to Michael's music! Keep up what you're doing and thank you for making me smile with your reactions😊
Thank you for playing this song I love this song thank you Jack for playing this song for me god bless you your family and your friends enjoy the rest of your day love you 🙏📖😊🥰❤️👑
I definitely need to rediscover this album. I forgot how amazing this track and album is. Don't Walk Away, You Are My Life, Break of Dawn, Butterflies, Whatever Happens and Threatened are my favorites
Thank you for reacting to this. I knew you would like it another Underrated piece by him is butterflies. Actually the invincible album is so underrated.
Beautiful song! Thanks for reviewing it and other songs of his, you do it so well! So eerie though because this is one of a few songs where MJ basically references his own death....like he just knew it was coming without knowing it was coming. I miss him so much!
This is one of my favorite songs! I think I actually recommended it on one of your videos lol I don't remember. I was in the car with my mom one day and this song came on and I just immersed and as soon as I got home I added it to a Spotify playlist! The message is endearing and Michael's voice delivers it so well.
Thanks again Jack, I think you would really like Butterflies, from the same album as Heaven Can Wait, Invincible, produced by the Darkchild, Rodney Jerkins.
Love this reaction! I’ve been a lifelong Michael fan and invincible just reminds me of my teenage years! My favourite songs off this album are heaven can wait, cry and whatever happens, if you could do a reaction to cry or whatever happens, that would be awesome 😎 xx
Jack Reacts your commentary is so awesome and dead on. I just discovered your channel and am glad I did. I really like your energy and am definitely a new subscriber. MJ is amazing and this song is definitely 1 of my favorites. I agree with you totally about the female backing vocals.
Invincible album is an amazing album , but unfortunately He did not receive his right from enough attention ... I hope that you will shed more light on the songs of this album , please react to more tracks from this album
That’s my favourite thing too, when Michael goes off and starts screaming. Like at the end of Earth Song and Man In The Mirror, those are the best ones
I am SOOOOOO excited you reacted to this song, Jack!! On my top 5 by Michael of all time!! But you talked over THEE. BEST. PART!! OMG!! "I love you, girl! I need you, baby! I wantchu, baby! Nooooooo!" #CHILLS
This song makes me happy and sad a t the same time... It reminds me of his death which makes me sad that he's not with us anymore, but at the same time I know he's in a better place away from all the haters, nay-sayers, backstabbers, and liars. I just wish i could have meet him before he passed
Butterflies will have you feel like we’re back in the early 2000’s💯🔥
@@JackReacts904 yesssss you definately should, you wont regret it!!!!
Butterfly is one of the most things that defined my 2018
Fun fact: Brandy did the the background vocals for this!

No she didn’t lmao. The bGV was all Michael on this track.
Wow

honestly one of his BEST albums!!!
Definitly!!
Invincible was the most underrated album of his discography. Tommy Mottola and Sony wouldn’t back up with the album financially meaning less promotion and less music videos. It really ticked off Michael.
Literally one video from this album.
@@kb4231 He had two more short films from this album Cry and another track.

Michael Jackson and Teddy Riley both produced this song together
@@JackReacts904 Michael and teddy had both wrote and produced the song
Teddy Riley Produced the Dangerous album!!
@@tonyj59 teddy riley co produced less the half of the dangerous album. Michael produced the entire album

I think that "yelling" you're talking about is called vocal distortion. I LOVE when guys use it in their singing. Very sexy!
Damn it i knew it was a name for it💀
Actually that “yelling” is called “Belting”. Meaning the singer is really BELTING (strong, loud, emphatic) out the vocals.
This whole album is underrated. There is plenty to choose from on this album.
"Break of Dawn", or "Whatever Happens", from the same album. They are even better than this one for me
He needs to do this whole album
YESS BREAK OF DAWN
yes indeed!.. I agree.. "Whatever Happens" (featuring Carlos Santana) so underrated..
thats a reach.
Michael Jackson butterflies
This song is def underrated. I heard it after he died and couldn't believe that I had never heard it.
@@JackReacts904 In the near future, please do "Chills" by Fatty Koo!
The last lines where he sings "leave me alone".. is a throwback to his song Leave Me Alone from the Bad album. You should definitely react to that song
@@JackReacts904 Yes, the video for that one is just awesome and has a lot of symbolism and layers to it as well

@@T1000-s4j no one said in terms of sound 🙄🤦🏽♂️
@@KorpusV6 Well, calling the ending a throwback to Leave Me Alone simply because he says "leave me alone", doesn't make it a throwback whatsoever.
Mike kills every music genre he does💯 Soul, disco, pop (of course), rock, blues, hip hop, R&B, jazz, funk. etc. Id wonder how he’d do with country😂
He also made a country but its sample..
A place with no name
And streetwalker kinda
Could you do Michael Jackson butterflies next.
YES!
Yesssss🔥🔥
WHEWWWWW
Yasss
That song is FIRE
Invincible is really such an underrated album from Mike, I sincerely think it is one of his best works. Heaven can wait, butterflies, break of dawn... masterpieces!
"Looking at the lyrics and it just says question marks" 💀 That part took me OUT🤣🤣
You would love They Don't Care About Us by Michael. Heaven Can't Wait is definitely one of his most underrated songs. This WHOLE album is underrated.
Christopher Allen I had this CD for the longest... it’s nostalgic for me
Jack Reacts personally, I would suggest the Brazil version.
Jack Reacts Ooh I say Prison version. It fits the song more. If you wanna really get the feeling of the song. That one.
Jack Reacts Of you reacted to both videos, I wouldn't be mad. Lol
Jack Reacts Of you reacted to both videos, I wouldn't be mad. Lol
We really got cheated by Sony for not promoting this album and making this a single.

Michael Jackson was from the 60,70s disco era....
he expressed his emotion through sorrow! he was a true black man from that era..
he was constantly fearful of being or turning out like James Brown,Sammy Davis jr.,Etta James,Ella Fitzgerald,Duke Ellington,Otis Redding,Fat Domino,BB King,Nat King Cole, Chuck Berry Sam cooke and Little Richard....and many more
he explained the music business steal and cheats artist.. especially the black artist....

Theo Tartamella He really thought he really had control of me. This time around I’m not taking no shit!
"Butterflies" is the dopest off the Invisible album eargasm experience fo sho
Michaels voice is so beautiful it’s amazing ❤️❤️❤️
I haven't heard this song since Michael passed. These lyrics hit different now. RIP, Mike.
"Darkchild" Rodney Jerkins Produced this album..Micheal was more than a musician.. He was a modern day Mozart! Michael Jackson wanted to invent his own musical instrument.. or create a new musical note... He was truly a legend in the making...
This entire cd 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
