Michael Jackson(Aug 29, 1958) passed away suddenly on June 25, 2009 due to cardiac arrest.
Known as King of Pop, he was a singer since he was 11 years old. He was the first singer that I known on the MTV days, that was when I was a toddler. It was the time he released his record, Thriller. His later known records, HIStory and Dangerous were also hits. One of the few artists to have been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice, his other achievements include multiple Guinness World Records—including one for "Most Successful Entertainer of All Time"—13 Grammy Awards, 13 number one singles in his solo career—more than any other male artist in the Hot 100 era—and the sales of over 750 million albums worldwide. Cited as one of the world's most famous men, Jackson's highly publicized personal life, coupled with his successful career, made him a part of popular culture for almost four decades.
My personal favorite songs: We are the World and You Are Not Alone.
Note: An autopsy will be done tomorrow.
