The other day i heard my little brother watching some of Michael Jacksons music videos. I came in the room and watched them with him. As i sat there i was thinking to myself that he was such an amazing artist. He had so much creativity and talent. Aside from all the crazy stuff he did and some very bad publicity, i had to admit to myself that he was a very talented artist.
  Thats why i decided that i had to write a bit about Michael Jackson, The King of Pop. Since his death was such a shock to everyone and now with the trial against his doctor its receiving many media attention.
  Michael Jackson was born as Michael Joseph Jackson on August 29, 1958. He was born in Gary, Inidiana and was the eighth child out of ten in total. He began to get some fame when him and his brothers formed a group called The Jackson 5. After some time some of his brothers left the group to begin their solo careers. It wasnt until Jackson himself began his solo career that he became a world wide phenomenon. He broke numerous records and will go down in history as one of the greatest artist of all time. The Guinness World book of Records recognizes him as the most succesful music artist of all time!! His album thriller alone was the best selling album of 1983 and is considered the best selling album of all time not just in the United States but also world wide. The album includes hits like "Billie Jean", "Thiller", "Beat It" and many more. He became a pop and fashion icon. With his originallity he created his own fashion style that will always be rememembered. He contributed many things to the music industry and has become an inspiration to many new artists. With his signature dance moves like the moonwalk and the robot his performances were unforgettable. As a child he had a very troublesome relationship with his father. His father physically and emotionally beat him, at times on a regular basis. Sometimes his father would beat him during his rehearsels because he disliked his performance or simply because he did not follow his directions. His father would tell him mean things, like telling him he had a huge ugly nose. Many people speculate that thats the reason why he altered his physical appearance so many times. Michael said in a interview once the reason he became very succesful was because of his dads strict discipline so he does give him some credit.
My favorite song from Michael definitely has to be "Billie Jean". I just think the beats catchy and i love singing along to it. Even though the videos kind of strange i still enjoy watching it.
