Micheal Jackson: A Thriller in Life and Death

The sudden and unfortunate death of 'The King of Pop' Micheal Joseph Jackson, has left me in awe of the man who the media called 'Wacko Jacko'. Since his passing, I cannot get it out of my head that he and I shared the same birth date and therefore felt an affinity towards him that i cannot explain.

Born in Gary, Indiana on 29 August 1958, Micheal Jackson was destined for great things. he began his singing career with his brothers in the Jackson Five. But even then his star shone brighter than the rest. When he hooked up with Quincy Jones, to his record his first solo album in 1979- Off The Wall- the rest as they say is history. Since his death, media has dedicated an unprecedented amount of coverage never seen towards one individual.

The Internet through the death of Micheal Jackson, received the credibility it has so craved, with TMZ, an online website being the first media outlet to break the news. Google reportedly shut down searches on Micheal Jackson as the system felt that it was under attack with so many searches and hits on MJ.

Micheal Jackson truely was a legend and his music will live on forever!!!!!!!!!
