Been listenin to him since i was a little kid,dancing and jumping around on the table pretendin im on stage, moon walking at malls at the toy section wit my dad, screamin the awesome "ow!" like my balls got stuck in my butt hole,zipping my my pants while singing and accidentally zipped up my pernis...etc.MJ was the one man that proved the world that music can be leveled to a totally different direction and content.Be it the young or the old,everyone was crazy about him.Not just singing and dancing,even when it comes to song writing,he was the one that comes out with really meaningful materials and messages.Think about it,how many singers out there who can write well?not saying all pop singers are crap but seriously,you can pin point just a few good ones,other than that,the only thing they contribute is their voice or dance moves and thats it.
It's sad to hear those articles on the news sending out false messages of who is MJ in real life,sorry to say but until now,a true beleiver and fan of MJ will never beleive those things said on the news.To all fans out there,am i right?
The feelings that are here in my heart now are deep and emotional,they cannot be put down in words.MJ played a big role in my life and so is everyone else,it leads me back to so much memories i had during my younger days when dad was around,the happiness,the joy,and the hope for the future.If you ask my love,she would say the same thing too,the same perspective and perception,that no doubt,MJ was the one man that everyone loved,and one who who changed the world by sending the one word that can bring peace to the human race,no war,no hatred or racism,only happiness,joy and laughter,and that one word, is love.
Rest In Peace Michael,you will always be in our hearts.
Michael Joseph Jackson (August 29, 1958 – June 25, 2009) was an American recording artist, entertainer, and businessman. The seventh child of the Jackson family, he debuted on the professional music scene at the age of 11 as a member of The Jackson 5 and began a solo career in 1971 while still a member of the group. Referred to as the "King of Pop" in subsequent years, five of his solo studio albums are among the world's best-selling records: Off the Wall (1979), Thriller (1982), Bad (1987), Dangerous (1991) and HIStory (1995).
In the early 1980s, he became a dominant figure in popular music and the first African-American entertainer to amass a strong crossover following on MTV. The popularity of his music videos airing on MTV, such as "Beat It", "Billie Jean" and Thriller—credited for transforming the music video into an art form and a promotional tool—helped bring the relatively new channel to fame. Videos such as "Black or White" and "Scream" made Jackson an enduring staple on MTV in the 1990s. With stage performances and music videos, Jackson popularized a number of physically complicated dance techniques, such as the robot and the moonwalk. His distinctive musical sound and vocal style influenced many hip hop, pop and contemporary R&B artists.
One of the few artists to have been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice, his other achievements include multiple Guinness World Records—including one for "Most Successful Entertainer of All Time"—13 Grammy Awards, 13 number one singles in his solo career—more than any other male artist in the Hot 100 era—and the sales of over 750 million albums worldwide. Cited as one of the world's most famous men, Jackson's highly publicized personal life, coupled with his successful career, made him a part of popular for almost four decades.
