Michael Joseph Jackson 1958-2009

Today Michael Jackson, 50, was found at his home in Los Angeles, suffering from cardiac arrest, and was pronounced dead later this afternoon. Growing up I can't lie I was a huge fan, he was my idol. I had posters, t-shirts, jackets, gloves....well, u get it. I was first introduced to MJ with the 'Off the Wall Album' record, and it was an actual vinyl record that my brother owned, and it was on from there. Learning the songs and dances, Michael ruled the Lee household. Today we lost an icon in the music world, and regardless of what he had gone through in the past several years, you can never deny that he is indeed a Legend. A True Entertainer in the best way possible, many aim to be on the same level as him, rather it's his dance style or a music video. It could be said that he is responsible for putting videos on the map, I mean who can forget Thriller! The Thriller album is classic and is what music should be. To have accomplished as much as has did in what seems like a short time, Michael will definitely not be forgotten. Sure we have new artist on the scene, but there will only be one Michael Jackson and he is the "King of Pop"!
