I'm not sure but I've heard that he did and I also heard that he didn't because him and MJ were friends. Also I heard he got permission to make his songs.
the law supports Weird Al's ability to parody without permission. He asks the artist before he makes the parodies. Even after the confusion with Coolio, I don't believe Weird Al has ever been sued for something that had anything to do with his songs and artist/angry fans of the artist he parodied.
Eat It - 'Weird Al' Yankovic album - was created on 1984-05-01.
Weird Al's song "Eat it" Can be found on Two CD's entitled "Weird Al" Yankovic The Food Album and The Essential "Weird Al" Yankovic The Essential "Weird Al" Yankovic can be found in Wal-marts currently. I found my "Weird Al" Yankovic The Food Album at an old CD store so I'm sure you cna find one of those CDs in stores.
He liked Weird Al's parodies of Beat it and Bad, Eat it and Fat.
Weird Al NEVER made a song about Barney on fire.

No, he wasn't. In fact he and Michael Jackson were friends, and Jackson even liked Weird Al's parodies of his songs. When Weird Al was recording "Fat" and "Eat It", Jackson even gave some pointers on the dance choreography and showed Weird Al where he filmed his own videos so that Weird Al could use the same spots.
