About this listen

Everyone knows Michael Jackson - the myth. This is the revealing true story of Michael Jackson - the man.

To Frank Cascio, Michael Jackson was many things - second father, big brother, boss, mentor, and teacher, but most of all he was a friend. Though Cascio was just a few years old when he first met Jackson in 1984, at the peak of the pop star’s career, Jackson was at the center of his life for the next twenty-five years, allowing Cascio to observe firsthand the greatest entertainer the world had ever seen. In that time, he became the ultimate Michael Jackson insider, yet remained publicly silent about his experiences. Until now.

In My Friend Michael, Cascio refutes the rumors, lies, and accusations that have accumulated over the years, providing a candid look at the Michael Jackson he knew for more than two decades. Offering an uplifting and definitive account of the legend, Cascio details how he grew up alongside Jackson, traveling the world with him on concert tours and eventually working for him. Through this lens, Cascio captures Jackson’s most private and tumultuous moments, while also setting the record straight on the entertainer’s notorious and misunderstood lifestyle - from his Peter Pan reality and his sexuality to the false allegations against him.

As Cascio shows, there was a great deal more to Michael Jackson than the headlines about him have suggested. Cascio reveals his friend in all his complexity, bringing to light his passions and joys as well as his flaws and eccentricities. Including stories about Jackson that have never before been made public, Cascio creates a balanced, human look at the pop star, one that shows Jackson as the very real person he was - a lively friend with an endearingly juvenile sense of humor.

I loved this book because it was a best friend talking about him. It was true and honest. He loved Michael for all the right reasons. He suffered with him too. To me that spells devotion. It was easy to understand and hard to put down. Thank you Frank!

Frank is a truth teller and this book is written with passion and unconditional love for Michael as a Human being. I have listened to this audio several times and I find myself with Michael and Frank in each moment. As a huge loyal Michael fan , it is my way to stay close to Michael and cherish him everyday.

I really loved this book, but couldnt shake the feeling that frank was leaving something out, the closer I got to the end the closer I felt to the ending of his life.. I did feel like this was a very good depiction of MJs life and the amount of untrust he started to have for me sometimes made me laugh when frank was making him seem paranoid not realizing he had every right to be.. Its one thing to be near someone dealing with it, but to be the person dealing with it is a whole new ball game.. he couldnt trust anybody

Frank Cascio writes straight from the heart. A first person account shared generously with great insight, deep love, unflinching loyalty. I absolutely loved it. By far Frank’s book is the best Jackson book available today. Highly recommended!!
