Just some things that have made their way through my mind…

I’m really enjoying The Jacksons: A Family Dynasty. I’m glad the family has allowed us to get to know them as people. Marlon seems so even tempered and down to earth, not to mention he’s a cut up. He lives here in the Atlanta area, and I would love to get to meet him. Maybe I’ll run into him somewhere. Jackie clearly enjoys being the eldest brother and having the clout that comes with that. I like that he isn’t afraid to take on Jermaine.

Tito… hmm… what can I say about Tito? I looove his swagger! Tito is just cool as hell without even trying. The man is 56 years old, but I’d get with him. Damn, I feel traitorous (and somewhat skanky) because I think his son Taryll is HOT as all hell, and I’d get with him too, LOL. My only issue with Tito is that I think his girlfriend is fugly. He could do so much better than her. I ain’t sayin’ that’s me, at all. I’m just sayin’ the chick is funny looking and he’s TITO JACKSON and can do so much better. Where is RANDY? I know he wasn’t in the J5, but he was in The Jacksons in their later years. He should be included. However, I understand there may be some unresolved issues, and bad blood, between him and Jermaine.

So far, the only two people I’m not really feeling are Jermaine and Siggie. Jermaine’s uber-sensitive, conceited, selfish, prima donna ass is always complaining about something, and I’m trippin’ on Siggie for wanting to rap. I mean, seriously?! What is ‘Dealz’ going to rap about? Being a rich kid and never wanting for anything? Rap is about STRUGGLE (or at least it used to be). What has Siggie/Dealz had to overcome? Is he a ‘conscious’ rapper (which would be very cool)? Or, is he another rapper lauding the virtues of hedonism and excess? Whatev, Sigmund, Jr.

Last thing about the Jackson family… Why is it we hear about all these Jackson offspring trying to get into the entertainment industry, but hear nothing about any who have focused on higher education instead? This family should have some lawyers, doctors, professors, etc by now.
