Thursday afternoon, the world was left without one of it's biggest icon's. To many of us, Jackson was looked upon as a role model and an inspiration, especially to those in the music industry. They don't call him the "King of Pop" for nothing. In fact, Jackson has the highest selling record of All-Time (Thriller). & All together he sold over 700 Million albums world-wide.
Just as Michael was preparing for a 50 concert tour of the UK, and what many fans were considering to be the greatest comeback of his career, he was rushed to UCLA medical center where he was pronounced dead hours later. Although the cause of death has not yet been confirmed, he's said to have died from cardiac arrest. As soon as news broke out about MJ being hospitalized, hundreds of fans and supporters flocked outside of the hospital. Many dressed like him while playing his music from their cars in his remembrance.
Apart from many of his abnormal late career antics, such as the child molestation cases and the baby incident where he held one of his own dangling from a window, Jackson is better known for his impact on music and the dance moves he made while creating it. He also put an end to any color barriers that were withheld at the time, as he brought all colors and ethnics together through his music. There's no doubt Jackson is a known figure regardless of what country you're from or what language you speak. In many ways Music has lost one of its most brightest. Michael died at the age of 50.
