Jay-ZI wrote this [Most Kings] before MJ died, and his death only proves my point: When he was alive, the King of Pop, people were tireless in taking him down, accepting as truth every accusation people made against him, assuming the worst until they drove him away.

But when he was alive and on top, they couldn't wait to bring him down.
