- Michael Jackson
Yesterday was a black day world wide. The King of Pop Michael Jackson passed away from heart complications. The true reasons for his death are still unknown. Michael Jackson was and still is the most influencial artist to have ever walked onto the entertainment scene. I remember dancing to all of his songs, along with other artists such as; The Artist Formerly Known as Prince and Madonna in my grandmothers house in front of the T.V for hours on end. He was one of the reasons why I always dreamed of being a performer. I remember telling my mother "Mommy, when I grow up I wanna dance like Michael and sing like Whitney Houston".
He was a very misunderstood individual and the media tortured him endlessly. Michael Jackson cared alot about the feelings of others and involved himself with alot of philanthropy work across the globe. Songs such as "Earth Song" and "We are the World" showed us the impact people could have if they worked together. Any person with respect and true love for music is mourning the demise of a fallen legend. He paved the way for many artists today. Michael Jackson was one of the first African - Americans to air on MTV, he broke the race barrier. He made it clear that race should not stop anyone or anything through the song "Black or White".
He is and forever will be a legend and will live on through his music, choreography and philanthropy work. It is true that one does not know what they have until it is gone. The industry will never be the same. He was only 50 years old at the time of his demise. R.I.P to one of the most influential person in my life.
