Michael Jackson,
THE LEGEND LIVES ON.

He's credited with RELAUNCHING the music industry in the '80s
making African-Americans #1 in the music world.

Thanks to Michael Jackson, African-Americans had become A
- world-class - POWERHOUSE.

P. Diddly said that Michael showed him
that you CAN SEE! THE BEAT.

P. Diddly, Tina Turner, Mariah Carrey, Janet Jackson,  ... all
benefited
from HIS LOVE of THE CRAFT of making music
the African-American way, singing AND dancing.

He introduced African-American culture to the world
and made it accessible.

He made African-Americans PROUD!
to be African-Americans
taking them from being an UNDERCLASS
after the Civil Rights Movement of the 60's
to FIRST CLASS in the 80's.

By the way,
Donny Osmond and him were BEST friends.

Michael Jackson associated himself with greatness
by marrying Elvis Presley's only daughter, Lisa, and
bought the royalty rights to the Beatles' music
which proved to be a smart business move.


Michael Jackson will be FOREVER REMEMBERED
for THE MOON WALK (glide) seen in his song, "BAD".

Most importantly, Michael Jackson demonstrated
his ARTISTIC singing and dancing GENIUS by
CREATIVELY and DRAMATICALLY
BLENDING song, music, and dance
FOR ARTISTIC EFFECT
so you could NOT only feel the beat,
you could SEE! THE BEAT.

Michael Jackson was about RACIAL HARMONY
addressing racism eloquently - head on -
in his song, "BLACK or WHITE".

Michael Jackson was about SOCIAL HARMONY in the ghetto
which he expresses simply, but yet brilliantly In his song, "BEAT! IT"
DON'T! FIGHT was his message to the gangs ruling the ghetto.

Most clearly, Michael Jackson's life was
A CELEBRATION OF HIS ROOTS,
HIS AFRICAN-AMERICAN CULTURE,
a culture that's VIBRANT, COLOURFUL,
a culture that MOVES, GROOVES,
a culture that's POLITICALLY DYNAMIC
whose members turned out "en masse"
to elect one of their own, President Obama.

Let me remind President Obama
that it was THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN VOTE
that made ALL THE DIFFERENCE.

Let me remind President Obama
that Michael Jackson contributed to his victory,
a victory after centuries of oppression, abuse,
and neglect of the African-American.


In life
there are TWO (2) DRIVING questions:
1. what do YOU! ... WANT?
2. how does that make YOU! ... FEEL
  (movie, good book, art, music, song, ... )?


Michael Jackson superbly
addresses the second question
in his song, my favourite, "The Way You Make Me Feel" .

We can MAKE PEOPLE FEEL GOOD by a smile,
a well-deserved compliment,
offering to open the door,
offering a helping hand
or ... .


HEY!
Michael,
YOUR! music makes me FEEL GOOD.


I like that
GOOD FEELING.


ThX! BRO.
