Michael Jackson - Date of Death 25 June 2009, Los Angeles, California, USA

Michael Jackson, who died today at 50 years, the music world through the 1980s, selling millions of records and concert tickets and dubbing himself the “King of Pop”. And while Michael Jackson won several times in such popularity contests as American Music Awards and MTV Awards, for his music and movies. He have got good and bad reputation for diffrent things he have done in his life. I still remember when his album Thriller come out and I loved the video. What ever ppl will say about his life, I still loved his music.
American superstar Michael Jackson was born in Gary, Indiana in 1958 and has been entertaining audiences nearly his entire life. His father, Joseph Jackson, had been a guitarist but was forced to give up his musical ambitions following his marriage to Katherine (Scruse). Together they prodded their growing family’s musical interests at home. By the early 60s the older boys Jackie, Tito and Jermaine had begun performing around the city; by 1964 Michael and Marlon had joined in.
A musical prodigy, Michael’s singing and dancing talents were amazingly mature and he soon became the dominant voice and focus of “The Jackson 5.” An opening act for such soul groups as the O-Jays and James Brown, it was Gladys Knight (not Diana Ross) who officially brought the group to Berry Gordy’s attention, and by 1969 the boys were producing back-to-back chartbusting hits as Motown artists. As a product of the 70s, the boys had emerged as one of the most accomplished black pop/soul vocal groups in music history, successfully evolving from a Temptations-like group act to a disco phenomenon.
Solo success for Michael was inevitable, and by the 80s he had become infinitely more popular than his brotherly group. Record sales consistently orbited, culminating in the biggest-selling album of all time, “Thriller.” A TV natural, he ventured rather uneasily into films, such as playing the Scarecrow in The Wiz (1978), but had better luck with elaborate music videos. In the 90s the down side as an 80s pop phenomenon began to show.
The 25 June 2009, in Los Angeles, California, USA; The 911 call came in at 12:21PM at his Holmby Hills home in L.A. The ambulance picked up Michael Jackson from his home when he got a cardiac arrest and that paramedics administered CPR in the ambulance … and it was looking bad. The hospital were unable to revive him, when Michael Jackson arrived at the hospital he had no pulse and they never got a pulse back. Once at the hospital, the staff tried to resuscitate him but he was completely unresponsive.
He died at age 50. Even if he had a hard life, done way to many operations or all the things ppl looks at and dislike him, his music was something awesome. He was a great music artist and had not many tracks that ppl didn’t love. You can’t never take that away from him. I will play his music under my show tomorrow in a memory of him, good or bad, I like his music.
