It was about 6:30pm when I got a call on my cell phone from my son. He said Michael Jackson is dead and I said, Yeah right. I was at a friends home so I asked him if I could turn to the news channel to confirm what my son had said.
Unfortunately I turned to CNN who was reporting that Michael had suffered a heart attack and was in a comma. While the New York papers were reporting that MJ had died.
Suddenly, I thought to myself I went from innocence to manhood listening to many of MJ's songs and a tear came to my eye. MJ has been forever removed from the world as I knew it.
MJ has written many songs but the only ones that I can Clearly remember are ABC and Billie Jean.
I feel that I would have to be showing favoritism to MJ if I didn't mention how he couldn't control his demons and perversion for young boys. Michael spent ten years as a child and forty years as Pop star. That's forty years of living that really didn't exist, around people who were making money off of him and didn't care.
My condolences go out to his family and friends. Especially Mrs. Jackson who has lost her baby boy.
I hope that Michael can find the peace in death, that he could not attain in life.
You will be missed globally.
One Love, One Nation, One World.
