THE LEGEND WHO IS MICHAEL


He is undoubtedly one of the greatest musical performers of the 20th century. He is the king of the dancefloor, the king of live performances, the king of popular music, the king of entertainment. Michael Jackson is truly the King of Pop.

He spearheaded edgy and experimental music videos in the 1980s via MTV. Still under the age of 15, he already made the world sang with his hits like I’ll Be There, Music and Me and Ben. Off The Wall, his first album as a solo artist, he was member of The Jackson Five before this, was a critical phenomenon producing hits like Rock With You and Don’t Stop Till You Get Enough.

Thriller, his second studio album that followed Off The Wall is now widely recognized as the most successful recording album of all time. Who will foget the title’s music video and his live performance of The Way You Make Me Feel and Man in The Mirror at the Grammys?

Michael Jackson was inducted in the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1994, won 15 Grammys and nominated in different music academies and award-giving bodies a million times. He is the total performer and a musical icon. A legend. He is the one who paved the way for modern pop music. Contemporary artists such as Beyonce, Usher, Mariah Carey, Madonna, Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake regard him as the greatest.

We have heard negative rumors and stories about his life. Scandals. Trials. Weird Behaviors. But we are pretty sure Time will not take these as it moves forward to the future. What will remain is this: Legendary Music. Long live the King!
