We are so consumed with music choices in life every since I can remember as a child I grew up listening to The Jackson 5. I can remember my mother having 45s and LP's of the Jackson's then came Michael Jackson the solo artist the star the guy who could really perform magic on stage with his power moves and his moonwalk. I was at work finished with my work and decided to check my email as usual. Happened to stumble across MJ being rushed to the UCLA medical center, I figured oh, well just exhaustion. But when the rumors came across blogs and other media outlets, I immediately went back in time thinking of all the songs he made and how we all at one time wanted to be like MJ in one way or the other. I remember being a child in Chicago and my relatives would pretend to be the J5. It was cool, MJ moved us and inspired us in so many ways with his soothing sounds and great dance moves, white glove penny loafers and for us to wanna be like "Mike". My prayers go up for the family he will be missed dearly by the world and his followers in my own words MJ stood for PEACE & Love. May u RIP MJ.
