Before He Was King
Photographer Todd Gray worked with Michael Jackson for several years before Jackson requested that he become his personal photographer, a relationship that would encompass the singer's performances with the Jacksons through the release of his smash solo albums Off the Wall and Thriller. This collection of unseen, intimate, and joyful pictures of Michael taken over a span of 10 years reveal him at home, with his family and fans, in career-making live performances, and the on the "Beat It" video shoot. A young black man not much older than Jackson at the time they met, Gray brings unique insights to his time with the singer, contributing stories and context to the images, presenting a rare, intimate portrait of Jackson at a creative peak as he grew from a brilliantly talented young man into a pop icon.

PLUS
- MJ invested in Landmark Entertainment through Kingdom Entertainment, but sold his part in the late 90's.
By the way, in 2001 Landmark Entertainment showed losses and verypossible could be dissolved, sold out in parts. This explains why thereis no single record about this compnany and it's activity since 2001.
Jackson International LLC owns a part of Ticket.com Inc. Ticket.com Inc. is the second largest online ticket-seller.
Furthermore I can assure that Michael has some publicly not knowncompanies in resorts and in the HI-Tech/Internet market, since he hasto keep his name out of the records because of the press.
Michael is also a big shareholder of Sun International, which is the owner of Sun City in South Africa.
There are 4 hotels in Sun City and one of them is "The Palace of Lost City" which Michael owns completely.
Developed by Sol Kerzner, the boxer-turned-businessman known locally asthe "Sun King," who capitalized on South Africa's stern antigamblinglaws by situating Sun City in the then homeland of Bophuthatswana, SunCity is unlikely to bowl over anyone who's ever been to Vegas, but itcontinues to rake in visitors and Bollywood film crews who love itslarger than life atmosphere. The resort is relatively easy to getaround, with shuttle buses constantly moving from one end to the next.A "sky train" takes visitors without cars from the entrance to theentertainment center. Closest to the entrance are the Kwena CrocodileSanctuary, Waterworld, and The Cabanas, followed by the tacky Sun CityHotel, Casino, and world-famous Gary Player Golf Club. Adjoining thisclub to the north is the more upmarket Cascades Hotel and EntertainmentCentre, from where you enter the grounds of the Palace of the Lost City-- for most visitors, the star attraction.
The Palace was built 12 years after Sun City opened, and the sheermagnitude of its opulence is proof of the amount of money taken fromthose frequenting Sun City's slot machines and tables. Separated fromthe rest of the resort by "The Bridge of Time" -- a large stonestructure that shudders and rumbles at preappointed times from amythical earthquake, and is lined with a "guard of honor" of carvedelephants -- the Palace is entered through the massive Mighty KongGates. Looking down on the rivers and jungle vegetation, it's hard toimagine that 15 years ago this was nothing but a dusty, rocky plain.From the bridge, you can clearly see the "Valley of Waves," wherelandlocked Gautengers learn to "surf" on simulated waves, tan onman-made beaches, and hurtle down steep waterslides, reaching speeds ofup to 35kmph (22 mph; note that the Valley is closed in winter). In thedistance, overlooking a lake filled with live flamingos, is themajestic Palace, with what seems like an entire jungle of carvedanimals in attendance. Surrounding the Palace is what must be the mostartfully landscaped garden in Africa, featuring five trails through 22different sections of forest. The theme (that of a "lost city" that hasbeen rediscovered and restored) is sometimes carried to ridiculousextremes, but the craftsmanship is world-class; the fantasy landscapeis quite overwhelming. With Michael Jackson a majority shareholder,things can only get weirder.
"The Palace of the Lost City in South Africa ranks as one of theworld's most extraordinary hotels. The centerpiece of the extraordinaryPalace of the Lost City complex is a fairytale palace residence, builtwith unbelievable attention to detail. The interior features exquisitemosaics, frescoes and hand-painted ceilings depicting South Africa 'swildlife and culture. Hard to believe that this is all located in aremote part of South Africa!"
