Woke up at 7am today and i had a text message reading the King of Pop has passed on.
It's one of those things that you didn't think you'd care or be bothered about, until it actually hits you and kaboom! You're taken aback. I didnt think much of it honestly, but it began to sink in while i was on the road and radio stations were having MJ tributes....then, kaboom.
Any 80's baby would remember growing up watching Billie Jean, Thriller and Bad; wannabe dancing, crotch-grabbing, sky-pointing like Michael- the guys at least (dont act like you didnt fellas). The ladies, well....JT, Chris Brown and even Usher got their whole swag from MJ, so that's self-explanatory.
Whatever it is about the man; his moves, his songs, his history...everyone knew Michael Jackson. But to hear the originator's gone, at just 50? That's not the way I'd imagine MJ to go.
It's a sad day. Always figured he'd rise above the media, industry and critics and come back with one last classic before bowing out like Carlito you know. heh, life is such.
But Mikey,
You're in the books and that was quite a run.
Thanks for the inspiration, the music, the dance and the dream buddy. Rest in peace, you will be missed.
Shout out to the Voize crew and Charlene for putting this together! Pick our brains, read the INTERVIEW.
