The Unsung Jackson

Everywhere you go, everyone is talking about the Michael Jackson Trial. The shit is inescapable. It’s all over the place. You can’t cut the TV on without either seeing him leaving court in that white suit with jewelry and armbands on the outside, or either seeing footage of glow-in-the-dark MJ proclaiming his innocence on his website. Seriously, that dude’s aura was illuminating that video. I think the light guy snuck into Mike’s “Jesus Juice” stash that he allegedly shared with the kids. The one detail of the trial that got me was how vividly the accuser described Mike’s genitals. He described them in more detail than I can describe my own shit. If what he said is true, he’s been up close in personal with Mike’s dick on a regular basis for a long-ass time. Like Mike’s just been going up to that guy every morning and teabagging the shit outta him to get him up for school. Imagine waking up every day to a porcelain clown with a perm shoving his dick and balls on your forehead…Scary shit. Very scary indeed.

Today, we are here to honor the unsung Jackson. The one who took his 15 minutes of fame, and gracefully bowed out of the spotlight…

STONEY JACKSON

So he’s not one of those Jacksons. The man still reeks of greatness…Then again, maybe that’s curl activator I smell…or Church’s Chicken. Yeah, that’s it. Church’s Chicken.

Stoney Jackson made television history for his inspired performance as “Travis, the upstairs neighbor” on 227. What other self-respecting thespian would be willing to make 80% of his screen apperances in a jacket with no shirt and usually in leather pants? I mean, who else can yell out “I MADE YOU, BARRY SOBEL!” with passion and conviction and actually mean it?

Let’s not forget Mr. Jackson’s groundbreaking role as the bad guy in the critically acclaimed film “Trippin.” How he was ignored by both the Golden Globe and Oscar nominating comittees is unheard of.

Stoney got the award that counts, though. in 1989, S-Curl haircare products named Stoney Jackson their “Man Of The Decade” at their annual banquet at the White Castle in Buttlick Mississippi. His bronze bust is enshrined in their corporate headquarters next to one of Eazy-E. The inscription reads “A meaner shag, there never was.”

So let’s pay tribute to the greatest Jackson of them all. He may not have ever sold one record or had a single world tour…But hey, he did his thing.

    LMAO!! Where are you now, Stoney? He definitely should have been picked for “Coming To America” over Eric LaSalle. He would have rocked that Soul Glo.

    Damn dude.

    I am so mad that Yoda wrote the inscription on Stony’s bust.

    Sez Yoda:

    Pimp, he was. Mad flavor, he had. Many MANY years, I juiced my hair to attain such a curl… sadly… no babes, I could pull. LMAO

    Boy…I used to love me some Stoney Jackson back in the day! Ooh! That curl! That was my man. I forgot when exactly it was that I fell in love with him. It was before 227 though. It was that show with him and that bald black guy. Damn…can’t think of his name. Eagle something…hell. Anyway, thanks for triggering my memory of a long lost love! LOL

  13. E to the dwige 02. Feb, 2005 at 9:34 pm #

    *smh* you’re killing me with the image of MJ slapping that kid in the forehead with his dick and balls. LMAO

  14. The Killa Himself aka Ron Mexico 02. Feb, 2005 at 9:48 pm #

    The show with the bald black man was “A Man Called Hawk” with Avery Brooks as said bald black man…

  15. Brown Shuga 02. Feb, 2005 at 10:23 pm #

    Oh ok Killa! Thanks for clarifying that for Brown Sugar. hee hee I knew it was a damn bird though. I said eagle! LOL

  16. Zantiferous3 02. Feb, 2005 at 11:07 pm #

    I came back to get one last sad glance at Stoney… *smh* and read the Yoda quote. OMG that was hilarious. But please oh PLEASE tell Yoda NOT to sleep on Stoney… there were plenty of girls that pulled that very picture that you have up here out of Right On! Magazine and put it right up on their wall… please don’t sleep… Stoney was the SHIT back in the day – curl and ALL… LOL

  17. Ms. Blaize 02. Feb, 2005 at 11:29 pm #

    LMAO*!!! Ok, we’re laughing and everything but I just saw Stoney on a rerun of Charmed playing a lawyer. he got blown up within 5 minutes of his appearance but it’s good to know he’s alive! I haven’t seen Ol’ Stonewall since he was in CB4!

    No comment on Mike’s balls. I’m still not convinced that he has any.

  18. Leigh 03. Feb, 2005 at 10:51 am #

    This is the funniest thing i have read in a while. I just bust out laughing in the computer lab so loud that now everyone in here is reading it. Every now and then I put on TV One to see if the Stoney episodes of 227 are on. I used to get him mixed up with the guy who played Pootie Tang. This post just made my day!

  19. Toya 03. Feb, 2005 at 11:26 am #

    LOL…oh wow..are you serious??? He must be in the same s-curl retirement home as Troop and Ready For The World…

  20. Brown Shuga 03. Feb, 2005 at 3:20 pm #

    Ay Toya…don’t be talkin ’bout Ready For the World! Those are my homeboys! Muhahahahaha!

  21. LB 03. Feb, 2005 at 3:38 pm #

    OMG….LMAO @…shyt, not one thing…the whole damn blog. I don’t know where u got that pic from, but damn, Stoney should be suing somebody for that shyt…LOL…however, they did capture his letting his soul glow, baby, and mayne, is it shining through or what?

  22. LB 03. Feb, 2005 at 3:40 pm #

    I remember thinking, if Stoney’s eyeliner was any heavier, he’d be Rick James (may he RIP).

  23. Dayrell 03. Feb, 2005 at 7:13 pm #

    Lmao. That Stoney pick is priceless.

  24. Nikki 03. Feb, 2005 at 9:04 pm #

    LMAO, I remember Stoney Jackson. I thought he was kinda cute back in the day. My aunt used to subscribe to Right On! magazine and I remember those posters of Stoney being on the walls of her bedroom.

  25. Liza Valentino 04. Feb, 2005 at 5:26 am #

    *shudder* @ the morning image of MJ…But…Michael loves the kids, don’t he? Don’t HE???!!!!

    Found and lost touch with your site last week, but tracked it down again today. Needed to recharge the humor cell and you did it for me. Regarding Stoney, I am guilty. I also had the hots for him back in the day, and saw that the brother still is tryin to hang in there as of 2003…

    I’m in the Target parking lot in Laguna Niguel today driving my new Chrysler 300 & this man and his wife are admiring it as the cross in front of my car. I look in his face and realize I know this guy. Turns out Stoney & his lovely wife Melissa are my neighbors. And she gave me her number too.

    Stoney, you’re a handsome guy for ladies to feast their eyes upon. I want to say, Happy Birthday, I lost track of you for many years. I caught a glimpse of you on Angels in the out field. Looking forward to seeing you in more action and drama movies.
