Director Spike Lee is working on a currently untitled documentary about the making of Michael Jackson‘s album Bad and today we’re getting a first clip. Whether you love him or find him repulsive, you can’t deny that Michael Jackson was an amazing artist. Watching this clip will give you chills and make you want to bust out your favorite Michael Jackson CD for a walk down memory lane. This documentary has been in the works for some time and from some of the stuff Spike Lee has said, it won’t disappoint. Lee has stated, ” We have footage in this documentary that no one’s ever seen, stuff that Michael shot himself, behind-the-scenes stuff. We had complete access to the vaults of Michael Jackson…He wrote 60 demos for the ‘Bad‘ record. Only 11 made it. So we got to hear a lot of that stuff, too, so it was just a great experience.” Ooh, I’m getting goose bumps in anticipation.
Unfortunately, we still don’t know when this tribute to Michael Jackson will be released, but according to Lee it will be going into theaters as well as on home video. As news is released we’ll let you know, in the meantime check out the clip below. (SF GATE/Vice)
