Babyface talks about Michael Jackson in new podcast

In a new episode of podcast “Rap Radar” hosted by Brian “B.Dot” Miller and Elliott Wilson, Babyface talks about his career, his documentary on his life and … Michael Jackson.

While staying respectful and positive about Michael, Babyface revealed that Lionel Ritchie warmed him about the King of Pop.

“Michael was magical.  Michael had this ability to make people do anything he wanted them to do.”

“Watch out for him because he’s a sneaky little character and he’ll get you doing a bunch of stuff you don’t want to do. He’s got that charm. He’ll pull you in.”

“I acted a little more ‘Indianapolis’ than I normally would,” Edmonds told Rap Radar hosts Miller and Wilson. “I didn’t fan out on him. And I think because of that we ended up being cool with each other.”

“He always used to say, ’You’re funny. We’ve got the same sense of humor because we’re both from Indiana.’”

“But I really hung out with him a few times where we’d just talk. It wasn’t about recording. And it’s precious to me to have been in that position,” he said.

He also talked about R. Kelly and the song “You Are Not Alone”.
