afriTV – Bad

Second in our week-long tribute to the late great Michael Jackson is Bad.  You probably knew the video featured Wesley Snipes, but less known is the fact that it was directed by Martin Scorsese.  Scorcese is one of Hollywood’s most famed directors, having directed Goodfellas, Gangs of New York, The Aviator and many many more.

The full-length story version of Bad is actually almost 18 minutes long, but length never really mattered when it came to Michael Jackson’s music. You always wanted to see the whole thing. From the popping to the fake knife fight, the dramatic cinema and the edgy lyrics of Bad were testaments to MJ’s magic.
