Friday will mark the one anniversary year since pop icon Micheal Jackson has passed away a moment in time that left the world in shock. His music inspired a generation of artists that constantly try to imitate his sound and dance moves these artist include Chris Brown, Omarion, Justin Timberlake, and Usher and Chris Brown are arguably the closets things we have to Michael. Before the fame, fortune, and tabloids Michael was born to Katherine and Joseph Jackson in Gary, Indiana on August 29, 1958 he was the seventh child out of nine children. 
Growing up he admired performers such as Ray Charles, Jackie Wilson, and James Brown. Joesph Jackson once was a boxer and musician but his wife Katherine saw something special in her boys and she realized they had raw talent. So they formed the Jackson 4 with Jermaine as the lead singer but Micheal was eager to prove everyone wrong and they became The Jackson 5.
They were introduced to the world in 1969 by Diana Ross on the Ed Sullivan Show they had several years of hits on Motown Records released three albums in the 1980's. Micheal became a star in his own right in later years he the was subject of ridicule and false accusations I don't believe he molested any children. He was too kind and that was used as his weakness. I have much love and respect for the entire Jackson family and that includes Joe yes he was a good father and manager sometimes he pushed too hard but his intentions were always right. Music was his son's passion and he lived to please others there will never be another Micheal Jackson may he rest in peace.
