Publisher Description:

A powerful chronicle of the sixteen weeks leading up to King of Pop Michael Jackson's death.

Michael Jackson's final months were like the rest of his short and legendary life: filled with deep lows and soaring highs, a constant hunt for privacy, and the pressure and fame that made him socially fragile and almost-ultimately-unable to live.

With the insight and compassion that he brought to his bestselling telling of Martin Luther King Jr.'s final year, Tavis Smiley provides a glimpse into the superstar's life in this emotional, honest, yet celebratory book. Listeners will witness Jackson's campaign to recharge his career-hiring and firing managers and advisors, turning to and away from family members, fighting depression and drug dependency-while his one goal remained: to mount the most spectacular series of shows the world had ever seen. Before You Judge Me is a humanizing look at Jackson's last days.
