Michael Jackson (1958-2009)
the greatest artist of all time. whether you are a fan or not, you cannot deny his insurmountable success as a musician. No one has achieved his status in the history of the industry. Thriller is still the best selling album of ALL TIME. With all of this success came many accusations of criminal activity and unfair rumors. Despite this his fans are still dedicated and show their support for him. Today at 2:26 P.M. (Pacific Time), Jackson was pronounced dead at the UCLA hospital after finding him on the ground in his rented mansion around 12:30 P.M. (Pacific Time). It was due to cardiac arrest that this happened. After he slipped into a coma, it was too late for them to save him. Arguably one of the most tragic stories in history, The King Of Pop dies at 50 years old. His life was one of tragedy and his life ends in tragedy. But what I will remember of Michael Jackson, is his music that made soundtracks for our lives. I remember when I had to do a gymnastics routine in gym class this year, and we could pick music for it. The first song that came to my mind was Beat It, my favorite. It turned the routine into an A++!! The unforgettable moment flashed into my mind today and I thank Michael for sharing his music with the world. No matter what situation I'm in, I can always find one of his songs to fit it just right. His music always inspires me to do better and become a better musician. His creativity and ambition was the beginning of a up and down career. Please respect his accomplishments and put away the negative aspects of his life, because he will always be remembered for his music. It inspired us ALL.
REST IN PEACE, MICHAEL
