I've never understood it, but this seems to be the consensus, as Michael allegedly explained once: "It's an expression I use with my family and my employees. I say, 'You should blanket me or you should blanket her', meaning like a blanket is a blessing. It's a way of showing love and caring."
Wasn't it cuz MJ always hid his face under a blanket?
I hope they know how much impact they father hade on the black community ( all over the world to )
