The beat was made by Michael. He didn't do it physically, but he sang it and beatboxed until it was this perfect. Then Greg, Quincy and the whole gang worked their magic with the synths, keyboard, etc
Women in Liberia felt so empowered as soon as this song dropped! Like they were so shocked that a huge star like MJ would write and sing a song so passionately about these people from a small country ☺️❤️
*He wrote this song back in late 1983/ early 1984. It was supposed to be part of the Jacksons “Victory” album, he knew it would be a hit. He held onto the song for good next solo album, BAD*
@@TheMalikLendellPodcast I like it better than MJ's because I can sing with it better. Despite the fact I'm a woman, MJ sang higher than I can on that song. But Floetry and Marsha are fire either way.
Jack please react to Michael Jackson - Human Nature *Fun fact* : The girl is speaking Swahili -> Nakupenda pia nakutaka pia, mpenziwe. They don't speak Swahili in Liberia, it's an East African language. I was really proud to hear Swahili in a Michael Jackson song though.
For years, I thought growing up he was saying Librarian Girl LMAOROFL! All my life, I would sing at the top of my lungs, LIBRARIAN GIRL and no one corrected me! I blame all my family and so-called friends for this forever! LOL!
Honestly, some of the best MJ reactions on youtube so big up for that! As an MJ fan & a producer/musician, I really appreciate the fact you look at it from a musical standpoint and actually know what you're talking about👌🏽 I feel like you have to react to every MJ album to fully grasp his genius. I'd definitely watch full album reactions. Keep up the good work & stay blessed bro💯
I know these Mike videos are a year old, but I've been binging them all. My bro, haha, its hilarious that every track you listen to becomes "your new favorite Mike song". That says something about his greatness. Your reactions are dope
Thank you jack ,you know exactly how to describe Michael, yes he gives his 100% to all his songs,I love your imagination, I had the same feeling whenever I listen to this song,traveling on a plane to some exotic place, exactly, please watch the video of this song, I'm sure Michael will surprise you like he surprised all of us and all the famous people in that video.
There’s something magnetic and otherworldly about Michael Jackson, I don’t think we will EVER have another musician even closely remote to the passion we got from Michael 😩
The 1st to start layering vocals And one of the few or only to still use. He knew all his melodies all his harmonies all the cords of all the instruments every dance move all aspects of this show or record
Michael's layered vocals are masterful!!!! He wrote, composed, and co-produced this! Quincy Jones was the other producer on the song, he's also a huge legend in the industry. He was the one who added the beautiful birds chirping and the woman speaking Swahili.
Hip hop was kinda inspired by the rnb genre and that's how these young rappers and singers are sampling old songs from the 1950s, 60s, 70s, 80s ,90s, 2000s and maybe the 10s so I don't wont nobody to come at and say that is not the truth which it Is because the beats and choruses are catchy
As anyone knows, MJ's videos were decades ahead of everyone else. The video for this was outstanding since it was star studded with actors, actresses, and icons (Bubbles) from the 80's! But after all, it"s Mike.
Have you ever notice anything that Michael came out with or produced on any album it always sounded way different on a whole nother level than any other artist or video of that time period. He was so end to it of so inventive so creative with fashion and his music 50% of music stopped when he died and that's legit facts. From country to rock to hip hop Artist waited for Michael to come out with something new because they just knew it was going to be fire and changed the game and he did every time
if you check out the rest of the album you cant deny that BAD is probably one of the best albums EVER made and can you believe he didnt receive one single grammy for it? he already had to deal with racism, jealousy and hate at that time period. just because Thriller won 8 grammys before they sabotaged BAD during the grammys. still michael took it profesionally and even performed 2 songs on that grammy awards night and made everybody feel ashamed for their grammys that night. check out the The Way You Make Me Feel and Man In The Mirror performances on Grammy 1988. Everybody knew that night that michael was robbed ....
MJ was a musical genious 💖 there will never be no one like him because he's unique 💖💖💖 worked all his life to give us pleasure and magic and made millions of people happy all around the world 💖 God bless him 💖💖💖
I saw a video of the audios of this music, and in fact mj sing the song with several tones of voice to arrive at this result, you can look for the video on youtube "liberian girl audio"
You gotta react to They don’t care about us! Their are so many amazing Michael Jackson songs! He has so many Released, unreleased, demos, remix’s and great stuff for MJ
One of his best tunes yet no one really knows it outside of fans. It is so unique. Just love it. Nice reactions. You really capture the essence of the songs and the vocals every time.
This was the sample that u heard on Tupac's *"Letter to My Unborn Child"* in case u wondered why it sounded so familiar. EDIT I see u auto-recognized it ... U are sharp Jack Salute
Mj- Billie Jean, Beat it, Smooth Crimminal, black and white, man in the mirror, thriller, way you make me feel, leave me alone, dirty Diana, they don't care about us, you are not alone.
1. Smooth Criminal 2. Billie Jean 3. Human Nature 4. They don't care about us 5. Jam 6. Liberian Girl 7. You rock my world 8. Dangerous 9. Off the wall 10. You are not alone
Liberian Girl is 1 of my all time Michael faves. Definitely 1 of my fave MJ harmonies. This song, like most of his, was written, composed, performed, and co produced by him.
Off The Wall, his First Adult solo Album, will take you to far higher levels than this track! Nothing wrong with this one, but Off The Wall, 1979, is a pure MASTERPIECE! Way better than Thriller!
You should also check out the song shout by Michael Jackson he raps in that Song! Mj could hit bars you would really love that song! It’s one of Kind and he never really does stuff like that but he did! Keep up the Michael Jackson reactions he really is the king of pop, R&B, soul, rock, and everything! He could even beatbox and rap! This man could do it all and I want you to see the magic of this Man! I’ll request more stuff in the future but keep up the Michael Jackson reactions! Love em👍
YES, came here hoping you'd reacted to this! It's my absolute fav balad off the Bad album! I went to a seminar his former sound Engineer did back in 2014 and I made him play the "jungle" version of this at least 4 times 😂 he was prob sick of it but I'm thankful he did, love love love the vocals, lyrics and passion so much 😭❤ THANK YOU!!!!
Fkd me up to REALIZE that Lyte and Xscape’s KEEP ON is actually this😔😔😔Didn’t REALIZE THAT until he died and I was FLOORED “That was Michael?? Oh fuck!😳” Your analysis was great. Michael really was a genius. 🥺🥺🥺🥺 Only one
I really don't think we can have a favorite song of a such creativ artist,doing very different things all the time,trying to renew himself,he did so many things in differents areas and always perfection,by the way compared to others he didn't do many albums . There's nobody else like him,at his level !
Do react to the video. He wrote this to show that dark skin women is also gorgeous too. He wrote a song for them. The girl's singing meant "i want/need you i love you"
Yes,an outstanding song. As far as I know, the background vocals are all him. And his vocals on this trac are absolutely amazing! Have you reacted to “Butterflies “ by MJ? If not, you should. Talk about great sounds!!! Try it 🤗
My favorite songs by MJ: Liberian girl, Stranger in Moscow, Jam, Dangerous, Dirty Diana, Rock With You, Who Is It, Leave Me Alone, In The Closet, and Hollywood Tonight 💜
The 1st Song after my Mom brought me to this World....still my Favorite. RIP MJJ/King of Pop ❤ #innocent #squareone #healtheworld Much love from Germany and stay healthy 🙏🙇♂️
Written and composed by the genius Michael Jackson
While playing a Ms Pac Man machine, I believe. :)
And Quincy Jones
@@kennyadedayo8550 Quincy Jones didn't write this nor did he compose this
@@noname-nobody1247
Both Quincy and Michael wrote and composed it.
@@kennyadedayo8550 no he didn't. Quincy never wrote for Michael jackson ever
The beat was made by Michael. He didn't do it physically, but he sang it and beatboxed until it was this perfect. Then Greg, Quincy and the whole gang worked their magic with the synths, keyboard, etc
Yes GOD😫😫😫This is everything, always and forever
@Necramonium you killed it. Exactly 💯
MJ wrote it and composed and produced it.
It’s my favourite song literally. He was amazing song writer .
Thanks for you’re amazing reaction bro.
The fact that he wrote this in 1983 blows my mind 🤯. He was waaaaay ahead of his time. King MJ 👑
Really???! My mom was very young when this came out
When bad album came out my mom wasnt even 1 year old
None of today's entertainers is even close to him at that. Michael is unique phenomenon.
Women in Liberia felt so empowered as soon as this song dropped! Like they were so shocked that a huge star like MJ would write and sing a song so passionately about these people from a small country ☺️❤️
“Lady in my Life” will put you on a whole other level if you loved Liberian Girl!
Yesssssss
That's his best slow jam imo
Liberian girl is much better then lady in my life
Yes! So smooth ❤❤
Agreed
This is my absolute FAVORITE song by him!!! This song is sexy AF!!
*He wrote this song back in late 1983/ early 1984. It was supposed to be part of the Jacksons “Victory” album, he knew it would be a hit. He held onto the song for good next solo album, BAD*
My favorite MJ song is Stranger in Moscow. Vastly underrated.
It was the culmination of his whole career/life at that point. I agree, it's gravely underrated.
Yes!!!!
100% agree with you 💖
Allah hukbar
It's my favorite too!!!! Definitely one of his best songs 😍
One of his all time great songs
This became the anthem for women in Liberia for a while. No one in those days were writing songs about African women being beautiful.
@P A My mother is Liberian
@P A Why you in here starting trouble? Get a job.
@P A Oh ok😁 Sorry, there are so many trolls out here that try to twist your words and attack you. You know how is lol She didn’t know him by the way.
React to Butterflies by MJ omg
That's my shit
BEST SONG ON INVINCIBLE and MJ's favorite from that album as well.
Yessssss
@@TheMalikLendellPodcast I like it better than MJ's because I can sing with it better. Despite the fact I'm a woman, MJ sang higher than I can on that song. But Floetry and Marsha are fire either way.
@@highland_persuasion I can't say if I agree because there are so many great songs on that album. It's criminally underrated.
The vocals at the very end of the song are my favorite part
Jack please react to Michael Jackson - Human Nature
*Fun fact* : The girl is speaking Swahili -> Nakupenda pia nakutaka pia, mpenziwe. They don't speak Swahili in Liberia, it's an East African language. I was really proud to hear Swahili in a Michael Jackson song though.
What does that mean tho, please ?
@@didigreen473 just copy and paste to Google bro haha
@@8upernova81 perioddd
@@8upernova81 according to google translate it means : "I love you too and I want you too, darling.. "
With Michael, ALWAYS do the video if it's available. He was known a lot for his videos too.
For this song in particular its better without the video because the video has all the noise that distracts from the actual song
This song is so smooth 😭❤️
Michael Jackson - Who is it
That's probably the best beat ever made in the history of beats.
I TOTALLY agree!
not a lie told.
Nothing but facts
Facts
For years, I thought growing up he was saying Librarian Girl LMAOROFL! All my life, I would sing at the top of my lungs, LIBRARIAN GIRL and no one corrected me! I blame all my family and so-called friends for this forever! LOL!
LOL!!!
LMFAO his former bodyguard Miko Brando talked about people saying librarian instead of Liberian and I couldn't believe it, guess it was true 😭
Sammmme 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I started liking going to the library more because of this song
This and Lady in my life the most slept on MJ songs ever!
MJ's vocals on this one literally gives me goosebumps 😩🔥❤ So glad you reacted to this one!
Another really smooth song of his is "Lady In My Life". Classic song definitely one to put into rotation
My favorite MJ song of all time. Classic r&b track.
YESS THIS IS MY FAVORITE SONG BY HIM

@@JackReacts904 you put words on what i always felt when listening to michael
I love this song Liberian girl, whenever I listen to it I feel special. I ‘m from Liberia ,living In the USA.
There’s something magnetic and otherworldly about Michael Jackson, I don’t think we will EVER have another musician even closely remote to the passion we got from Michael 😩

Both great Songs.. Liberian Girl and Letter to my unborn child 🔥🔥🔥
Michael killed this song!!!!! Great reaction 👍👍👍👍👍

About 90% of the Kings music is actually HIS music. Unlike other artists he truly is heavily involved with everything he puts out.
That’s MJ ?!🎤🎶🙌🏽🙌🏽💕💕

Try who is it it's the best song on the dangerous album of mj
Michael Jackson mtv life performance was one of his best performance I’ve seen! Mtv gave him a 15 min slot
Now this song is smooth. Another of my favourites from the greatest.
Legend of legends
Off The Wall, his First Adult solo Album, will take you to far higher levels than this track! Nothing wrong with this one, but Off The Wall, 1979, is a pure MASTERPIECE! Way better than Thriller!
I Can't Help It is a stunning track!
Agreed
It sure is his best album just way ahead of its time can’t believe it only won 1 Grammy.
This was always one of my favorites from him.
I'm so happy you are exploring his out of this world discography. I have enjoyed your every reaction, opinions and commentary. Love from Spain!
This is why MJ is considered the greatest of all time ! This would be most people best song but for him it's just another day at the office. Lol
More micheal!!! Michael is a must!!! You have months worth of sings and videos to discover.
Listen to the climax of the instrumentation beginning at 4:08 while Mike´s singing is calm.
