They were discovered by Gladys Knight and pianist Billy Taylor at the famous Apollo Theater in Harlem. Not only a superstar at the age of 5, Michael went solo at the age of 13. His first #1 hit at age of 14 was Ben (a touching love song to a rat)! Who would have ever imagined that? Not one would ever imagine that he would get addicted to plastic surgery, face accusations of child molestation and end up Americas Most Famous Sideshow. Michael Jackson was The King of Pop! This was not a title that he gave himself, it was given! Not only did he move the world, he moved his peers as well, among whom he had no equal. He earned it! No other performer in all of history has generated the massive sales that he did. He drew volumes of excitement and mass hysteria. There has never been one like him before and there will never be one paralleled to him, ever! In 1976, the Jacksons left Motown and signed with Epic Records where they continued to crank out one hit after another. Get more information here http://www.oncealivinglegend.com
