I was watching a documentary on the making of Michael Jackson’s album "Thriller"
(On Paramount+)
How it was put together, how the music was used to integrate MTV (who initially wouldn’t air videos by black artists) and make them even richer. How the videos were made, including his work with Paul McCartney, John Landis and also how Michael’s singing style and dance moves in those videos and subsequent ones were used by groups all over the world. How it became the most popular album of all time. At one point a young rapper said, enthusiastically, "’Thriller’ was my grandmother’s favorite album !"
