The Gloved One
It's a sad moment in everyone's life since hearing the news about Michael Jackson passing away.
I heard the news and I was shocked by it. TMZ first broke the story but other news channels didn't have the final news until one hour later so I had some sense of hope. Unfortunately that feeling slowly faded once it was confirmed that he did died.
Michael Jackson for me was a true icon, an amazing talent, a performer, the greatest artist and songwriter of our time. He despite critical bashing and very bad publicity was unforgettable. Every song that Michael did was remarkable and memorable because he lived for his music and you could feel that in his words.
I have always been a fan of Michael Jackson because I loved his artistic ability, his music, his style and his persona. I grew up listening to his music and enjoying what he created, trying to get his dance moves down and feel what he put into his craft. I watched his videos and enjoyed getting a real creative sense on the way his mind could think so out the box. Something that is truly lacked in the quality of music videos today. It's such a sad feeling that I continue to get when I think about it being the end of many generations of Michael.
I watched the news channels last night because I just couldn't believe that he was really gone. As I watched these networks I realized that they don't respect him as an artist because they continue to talk about the negativity that surrounded him. Let's remember him for his talent and his music, he is gone and there will be no other Michael Jackson. They will try but there was only one so let's give the man respect and enjoy his life as a legend.
