to the King of Pop
June 26th, 2009 by admin received No Comments »To me, there is no greater influence in music to the entire world than Michael Jackson. As a kid I would listen to his music, having similar tone at the time, and try to mimic his every move. As I grew older his music influenced me like no other. I was the kid walking around with the red jacket from Thriller and penny loafers trying to dance and sound just like MJ. As I grew older I realized his great talent and how musically brilliant he was (stinks to put that in past tense). And you can see just how brilliant he is by looking at dance today and see just how big his influence changed the thought process behind dance.
I was watching So You Think You Could Dance last night and the panel all mentioned him and how he influenced dance AND the show majorly. It was in his video Black and White that he danced not only his style but Indian, Russian, and many others. Truly an inspirational man.
I will always remember Michael Jackson as the King of Pop. I am saddened to not get the opportunity to experience the “MJ experience”. There will never be another like him. Rest in peace.
