Michael Jackson – “King of Pop”

I mean, you don’t get called the “The King of Pop” for nothing, right? But as much as we love his music, the late singer’s life wasn’t easy.

Right from the beginning, when he sang with his brothers in the Jackson Five, Michael had problems at home not helped by a very strict father who was quick to punish his kids if they didn’t fall into line.

One could say that Michael Jackson was a product, a person who was designed to become an entertainer and singer from his earliest days. However, that isn’t something that will take away the pure brilliance to be found in his music, dancing and songwriting.

When Michael Jackson passed away in 2009, the whole world mourned the singer. He had been chased by paparazzis’ and tabloid newspapers for pretty much his entire life, but not even when he was laid to rest for the last time was he spared.
