Q doesn't believe the medical condition...
Producer Quincy Jones - who worked with Michael Jackson on Bad, Thriller and Off the Wall - says he doesn't believe Jackson had a skin condition and that Michael hated being black.
Quincy said, "I don't believe in any of that bullshit, no. No. Never. I've been around junkies and stuff all my life. I've heard every excuse. It's like smokers - 'I only smoke when I drink' and all that stuff. But it's bullshit. You're justifying something that's destructive to your existence. But when somebody's hell-bent on it, you can't stop 'em. What his face turned into is ridiculous. Chemical peels and all of it. And I don't understand it. But he obviously didn't want to be black. You see his kids?"
Quincy said he'd even spoken to Michael about the changes. He said: "He'd come up with, 'Man, I promise you I have this disease,' and so forth, and 'I have a blister on my lungs,' and all that kind of bullshit. It's hard, because Michael's a Virgo, man - he's very set in his ways. You can't talk him out of it. I'm just a musician and a record producer. I'm not a psychiatrist. I don't understand all that stuff. We all got problems."
