There's not much more I can say that hasn't already been said in the past few days since the shocking passing of the King of Pop. No other artist in the history of music save The Beatles can say they had the impact on popular culture that Michael Jackson did. His style, his performances. He revolutionized the music video, turning it into an art form. He brought the worlds of pop, R&B, disco, and rock together to form an unstoppable discography of pure unadulterated genius.
The controversies that followed his later years will always haunt his legacy, but they will never overshadow the contributions the man gave to the world. It's hard to fathom anyone ever again achieving those same heights. Michael Jackson was simply one of a kind.
