In a country dripping with wealth, why does happiness seem so elusive? The U.S. stands as the 15th happiest nation. An intriguing rank, given its affluence. The answer, perhaps, lies not in dollar signs but in deeper human connections. Enter Prince Jackson and Mike Tyson. A recent episode of Hotboxin’ touched on this enigma.

Prince’s reminiscences about his father, pop icon Michael Jackson, painted a distinct narrative. It wasn’t just about melodies; it was about the heartbeats of children fighting rare illnesses. Tyson, the former boxing titan, had a perspective that might surprise you. Dive deep with us into a discussion that extends beyond fame.

Mike Tyson and Prince Jackson discuss: The true fabric of society

 

That's a Big Problem”: While Opening Up About Michael Jackson's Kindness  Towards Children 'Dying of Unique Illness', Late Icon's Son and Mike Tyson  Dive Deep Into the “Core Issue” of an Unhappy

 

Delving into the heart of the conversation, the contrast between wealth and happiness became the backdrop for an illuminating discussion. America’s glittering skyscrapers and bustling cities might imply prosperity, but the underlying sentiment narrates a different tale. It was within this setting that Prince Jackson, shared personal memories and insights on the episode of Hotboxin’.

Transitioning from broad strokes to specific moments, Prince’s voice was earnest as he admitted, “I don’t think I know what even the core issue is. So it’s hard to generate a solution from it.” Mike Tyson, not one to shy away from directness, responded swiftly, stating, “The core issue is no one cares.

Prince, clearly resonating with Tyson’s sentiment, expanded on the thought, saying, “Yeah and that’s a big problem. So that’s why we like the idea of healing because to help someone heal is an active care, is an act of kindness and it’s not something that’s easy. My father used to go to Children’s Hospitals and he would spend time with terminally ill children or people who were dying of very unique illnesses.

 

 

He continued, “It’s not something that’s easy on the heart and it’s something that he was always very happy to do. After he died, I used to go to the Children’s Hospital in LA and I would volunteer with a program called literally healing and we would just go and spend time with the kids, read books to them and stuff like that.”

This poignant recollection not only underscored Michael Jackson’s character but also highlighted the deeper issue at hand. A society’s happiness isn’t just its GDP; it’s woven into the fabric of compassion, care, and active involvement.
