How We Work

Our goal is to dive deep into research, examining widely held beliefs to see what holds up to evidence. We’re focused on understanding Michael Jackson as a person, not just as a pop culture icon. In short, we’re rethinking Michael Jackson based
on facts.

Authenticity is our mantra and we thoroughly evaluate each source. Our goal is to present fact-checked content grounded in empathy. Nothing we share is intended to cause harm – our purpose is to inform, offer perspective, and if possible, spark joy.


This project began with a simple discovery: Michael’s deep voice. That moment prompted us to question everything we thought we knew. By sharing the insights we’ve gathered, we hope to shed light on aspects of his life that are not widely known – and to contribute to a more balanced, informed narrative around Michael Jackson.
