So it was just a few hours ago that I purchased the Bad25 deluxe box. I’m so excited right now!
I’ve had Azealia Banks’ EP 1991 on repeat for the past few days, so here’s my high-fashion-but-not-really-at-all-BAD-25 piece. I might do another one if I get time, this was more like a sketch that ended up full colour thanks to 1991 (the song!).

There is still a lot of bad 25 cans at the corner store that I brought my first one.
- GQ: Details magazine just labeled Adam Levine from Maroon 5 the "new king of pop" on their cover.
- Spike Lee: The king of pop?
- GQ: The new king of pop.
- Spike Lee: Look, I have nothing personal against my man [Adam Levine] and I don't think that he called Details up to tell him to do that, but a lot of the time magazines will get you in trouble with titles like that. I remember M. Night Shyamalan was on the cover of Newsweek and it said he was the next Spielberg. Now I'm not trying to be disrespectful to M. Night, he didn't tell Newsweek to do that. When people see that cover they're going to be like, alright, this movie better be good. Just look at Spielberg's filmography...Signs was no Close Encounter.
- GQ: Who would you say is the closest to what Mike [Jackson] was?
- Spike Lee: That's a very interesting question. I don't think it's anybody, I mean there are some people who could dance, look at Chris Brown—the way he dances. Usher...
- GQ: Maybe a younger sensation, like Justin Bieber?
- Spike Lee: Justin Bieber is the new Michael Jackson? Interesting thing is that we interviewed Justin Bieber for this documentary, and you know he idolizes Michael. And I love Kanye and Jay and everybody else, but there's only one Michael Jackson. So if there's only one Michael Jackson, how can anybody be the new king of pop?
Now that I have these two, I can’t wait till September. Matter of fact, can’t wait for my first paycheck so that I can pre-order the deluxe box
Guys I finally found it. So my mom sent me to the corner store to buy some snacks. I wanted an Arizona ice tea so Ipassed where all the soda was at. Something caught my eyes and there it was, the bad 25 cans. I wanted to buy all of them but I only had $1. I’m so happy and mad at the same time. Happy because I found them. Mad because I’ve been busting my ass going to all these walmarts and it was at a store 2 blocks away from my house.
When I get more money I’m buying 2 more
At least the Walmart had the CD. My grandma brought it for me
Who is ready for Bad 25?
The BAD album was the third Michael Jackson album produced by Quincy Jones and was originally released on August 31, 1987. It was monumental in many ways; Michael wrote nine of the album’s eleven tracks and received co-producer credit for the entire album. The album was #1 around the world, made history with five consecutive #1 singles on the Billboard chart, produced ten chart-topping singles, nine ground breaking short films and to date, the Bad album has generated over 45 Million units in sales. BAD was nominated for six Grammys and won two; the album earned Michael the first-ever Video Vanguard Award at the MTV VMA Awards. Songs on the original album are: “Bad,” “The Way You Make Me Feel,” “Speed Demon,” “Liberian Girl,” “Just Good Friends” featuring Stevie Wonder, “Another Part of Me,” “Man in the Mirror,” “I Just Can’t Stop Loving You,” “Dirty Diana,” “Smooth Criminal,” with “Leave Me Alone” added to the album once released.
The BAD World Tour was Michael’s first concert tour as a solo artist. The legendary tour included 123 concerts attended by more than 4.4 million fans over sixteen months. When it concluded, the tour had shattered all previous touring records for attendance and total gross revenue adding three new entries in the Guinness World Records for the largest grossing tour in history, the tour with the largest attended audience and the most sold out shows at Wembley Stadium.
