Our Friend, Majestik, left his earthly home last night in the wee hours. He lost his courageously fought battle with brain cancer on Friday, Feb. 18, 2016.
Majestik was a faithful and loyal friend and right hand man to Joe Jackson and very close to Katherine and La Toya Jackson. He always defended Michael to the media and helped the MJ fans when possible. He was a special character. God broke the mold with Majestik. He was funny, flamboyant in his suit styles and colors and his booming voice always announced, "I am Majestik the Magnificent!" You could not miss his big, broad smile and he brought his own personal energy to MJ events over the years.
Many times Michael stated that over the years MJ fans around the globe had become his family. The MJ fans also bonded to each other intertwined forever by heartstrings of LOVE. First drawn together by a similar love for Michael Jackson and then growing and connecting as friendships grew connecting MJ Fans from countries far and wide... all nationalities, creeds and races. With Michael's passing Majestik many times was the MJ fan 'go to' person to relay information from and to Joe or Katherine.... many times correcting media misinformation or drama. In one interview in particular he very firmly set Nancy Grace straight by sharing the truth about Michael Jackson... debunking her crap with verbal punches... left and right... over and over. We thanked and cheered him for his efforts. He would not back down... where many were afraid to speak out... Majestik fearlessly opposed the lies about Michael.
Majestik was not a perfect human being. I don't know any family members who are... and that is exactly what he was... is ... to us in the MJ Community... FAMILY. We loved him in spite of his short comings as I pray and hope people will do for me... for all of us... one day when it's our time to go home. May each of us find the grace to love and forgive one another. And may each of us be so blessed as Majestik to have such love surround us in our lives and our times of need. Majestik you will never be forgotten. ♥
Our hearts and prayers also go out to all of Majestik's loved ones and close friends and most especially to Joe and Katherine Jackson who stood by Majestik to the end and helped him so much. God bless those who cared for Majestik in these last difficult years of illness. God bless you and may the Lord comfort you all through this time of grief. ♥
Majestik the Magnificent entertained many with his magic. Michael LOVED magic! He spent time with Majestic enjoying and learning his tricks. Majestik, thank you for sharing your magic with us... you lived a BIG life in your own special way of service to those you loved. God bless you and thank you for that. I'll never forget the time at a Halloween MJ fan party when I handed over my ring and wondered if you would make it disappear! I was a bit nervous and watched very closely to see where it would go and if it would reappear in the same place... we laughed and enjoyed that night so much.... and yes true to your word my ring was back on my finger safe and sound.
You will be missed... say hello to Michael in his heavenly home from us all! Share some magic tricks with him... make him smile for us. We will very much miss seeing you in June and August each summer and at Tributes and Premiers for all things Michel Jackson as we continue to keep Michael's legacy alive.

ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing these stories abt Majestik. I didn't know him very well. I only met him a couple times but I knew he loved, supported and defended Michael and that's all I needed to know. Blessings on him for loving Michael. Blessings on Katherine & Joe for taking care of him to the end. I know Michael welcomed him with open arms and that beautiful smile. RIP.

ReplyDeleteI knew Majestik very while I did security for the Jacksons at Hayvenhurst 2009-2013. Majestik was such a pleasure to be around. He shared many MJ stories and always had me laughing and his word was gold with me. I was the guard that could sense MJ' spirit and it was happening so much on that property . I kept it secret for a year until Kenya (Michael's dog ) started barking at MJ's room for a few minutes every night. Mind you, the dog was never alive when Michael was living there yet he knew what room to bark at confirming what I was seeing. I shared this with Majestik and Majestik contacted La Toya. Later on I appeared on her reality show entitled Message From Michael. Majestik promised me that I wouldn't be ridiculed because he felt something too. He delivered. That man was always nice to me and always available to share with MJ's fans that showed up at Hayvenhurst. Peace Majestik . Tariq El Shabazz
ReplyDeleteI grew up with Majestik as an entertainer in a way. I was 18 when I first met him. I was working at Hollywood Magic then and we became friends. Back then he was teach Muhammad Ali magic and he would come in a lot. Through the years I would see him from time to time and it was always a pleasure. He was a real magician who transformed the moods and attitudes of those around him. He once offered to take me to Vegas back in 2001 to his warehouse to put together an illusion show using his props. He thought I belonged on a stage there. LOL I felt honored and important. He did that. I just found out about his passing as I had tried to contact him several years ago on Facebook I thought I would look him up today. To the owners of this page. Thank you for this tribute. He was one of the GREATEST. R.I.P. Majestic the MAGNIFICENT
