They can say all the bad things in the world about the man we know as Michael Jackson but you can't deny his impact on music. What grown man do you know can make other grown men faint when he comes on a stage? The man was an icon and I could sit here and type AALLLL day about the impact he's made on music and the world itself. As I watch the video for Bad (shot at Hoyt and Schermerhorn Brooklyn owww) and listen to his Jackson 5 songs on the radio, it's setting in that Michael Jackson has passed. Like we're all thinking, MJ can't die! That's impossible. So unexpected, sudden which only adds to the sadness of the situation. I'm honestly speechless and writing this post is hard. Not because I'm speechless but because I grew up listening to this man EVERY DAY! In pre-school we did a Thriller play then I came home to Jackson 5 songs and the Thriller album. One of my favorite videos of all time is Do You Remember the Time because as a kid I knew all the steps and dialogue in the video.
Michael Jackson. That's one name you can say on Mars and someone would know who the hell you were talking about. A man we never knew personally moved us all in unexplainable and immeasureable ways. You would be hard pressed to find a star bigger than him. I can't say any more about this man. I can say "The Greatest Performer, Artist, Musician of all Time" until my fingers fall off...but it still wouldnt be Enough. Here is the Thriller video for yall.
