Michael Jackson Dead

Michael Joseph Jackson (August 29, 1958 June 25, 2009) was an American recording artist and entertainer. The seventh child of the Jackson family, he debuted on the professional music scene at the age of 11 as a member of The Jackson 5 and began a solo career in 1971 while still a member of the group. Referred to as the "King of Pop" in subsequent years, his 1982 Thriller is the world's best-selling record of all time and four other solo studio albums are also among the world's best-selling records: Off the Wall (1979), Bad (1987), Dangerous (1991) and HIStory (1995).

In the early 1980s, he became a dominant figure in popular music and the first African-American entertainer to amass a strong crossover following on MTV. The popularity of his music videos airing on MTV, such as "Beat It", "Billie Jean" and Thriller—credited for transforming the music video into an art form and a promotional tool—helped bring the relatively new channel to fame. Videos such as "Black or White" and "Scream" made Jackson an enduring staple on MTV in the 1990s. With stage performances and music videos, Jackson popularized a number of physically complicated dance techniques, such as the robot and the moonwalk. His distinctive musical sound and vocal style influenced many hip hop, pop and contemporary R&B artists.

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. Jackson's highly publicized personal life, coupled with his successful career, made him a part of popular culture for almost four decades. He died unexpectedly at 2:26 pm[4] on June 25, 2009, aged 50. The specific cause of death has yet to be determined.[2]

Майкл Джозеф Джексон (англ. Michael Joseph Jackson, 29 августа 1958 — 25 июня 2009) — американский певец, танцор и автор песен, который впервые достиг международной известности в возрасте 11 лет в качестве вокалиста детской группы Jackson 5, а впоследствии стал самым коммерчески успешным сольным артистом в истории и был провозглашён «Королём поп-музыки». Наибольшим признанием пользуются три альбома, записанные им под руководством продюсера Куинси Джонса, — «Off the Wall» (1979), «Thriller» (1982) и «Bad» (1987), причём «Thriller» занесён в Книгу рекордов Гиннесса как самый продаваемый диск всех времён и народов. В активе Джексона 19 премий «Грэмми»; 13 раз он поднимался со своими синглами на первую строчку американских чартов продаж. Его имя дважды занесено в Зал славы рок-н-ролла — в качестве сольного исполнителя и участника Jackson 5.
