Howard Bloom worked with some of the biggest names in music history, but he says no superstar ever affected him the way Michael Jackson did.In this exclusive conversation, I sit down with Howard Bloom, the publicist for The Jacksons during their Victory Tour and a longtime music industry powerhouse who also worked with artists including Prince, Queen, Bob Marley, Billy Joel, Aerosmith, and many more. In this interview, Howard takes us behind the scenes of The Jacksons' legendary Victory Tour, where he served as the group's publicist during one of the most pivotal moments in Michael Jackson's career.We discuss what Michael was really like away from the cameras, the pressure surrounding the tour, the stories fans have never heard, and why Howard says Michael became part of his soul in a way no other artist ever did. If you've ever wondered what it was like to witness Michael Jackson's rise from inside his inner circle, you won't want to miss this conversation.
