About this listen
A powerful chronicle of the 16 weeks leading up to King of Pop Michael Jackson's death
Michael Jackson's final months were like the rest of his short and legendary life: filled with deep lows and soaring highs, a constant hunt for privacy, and the pressure and fame that made him socially fragile and almost - ultimately - unable to live.
With the insight and compassion that he brought to his best-selling telling of Martin Luther King, Jr.'s final year, Tavis Smiley provides a glimpse into the superstar's life in this emotional, honest, yet celebratory audiobook. Listeners will witness Jackson's campaign to recharge his career - hiring and firing managers and advisors, turning to and away from family members, fighting depression and drug dependency - while his one goal remained: to mount the most spectacular series of shows the world had ever seen. Before You Judge Me is a humanizing look at Jackson's last days.
©2016 Tavis Smiley and David Ritz (P)2016 Hachette AudioThe problem with this book there is nothing new disclosed there are a few interesting quotes. The premiss is to give the reader an idea of the stresses and strains whether it be financial addiction related or lack of confidence. These are again well documented. The other issue I have it does not go far enough I would have expected a bit more meat an effort to answer questions we all have. Finally thier are better books available on audible "untouchable the life and death of Michael Jackson it goes into more detail and paints Michael as human full of light darkness and floors. The other book is recommend is Aphrodite Jones The conspiracy theory terrible title but fantastic book.
In short before you judge is a good effort but I expected more especially when thier is so many books on the subject.

I have read many books about Michael some for and gain st but this one moved me to tears the struggle of the last few weeks of Michaels life and then just when he was reaching his inner performer again he passed away just broke my heart. The main thing that I have taken from this book apart from the tragic passing of a legend is his obvious and great love for his children the main love of his life. To hear about the activities he undertook with them the love he showed I have no idea how they move on without him they will remain Michaels best and lasting legacy and I thank the author for a thrilling and evocative look at a man who was also to all of his fans a legend
This book literally moved me to tears
