Mj a legend i his own right
R.I.P MICHAEL JACKSON
Michael Jackson popularity perhaps can only be rivaled by Barrack Obama. While Obama massaged the feelings of many with his ‘Yes we can’ slogan. Jackson gave a sense of determination to so many by telling them in his songs that indeed we are the world and we can make it a better place.
While some tabloids blame the heart attack on an injection of the painkiller Demerol he received form his private physician, we nevertheless mourn him. It may still be sad news to note that he had apparently been 'doped up to his eyes' for several weeks with anti-pain prescriptions including Vicodin. His publicist has said that the painkillers have taken over his life.
Michael is undoubtedly the king of pop. He belongs to a generation that came into popularity in the last half of the twentieth century. As someone said it, those who are stars in such a period of go on to be very huge superstars and indeed, Jackson was and will always be remembered by so many.
No one is perfect and therefore, we need not crucify Jackson because of the mistakes he made. At least his came into the public limelight. We are worse off because our misdeeds go on unnoticed or reported. We have lived to learn from Roosevelt that coming short is not a bad thing. But being determined to succeed is what makes us be enviable. That is what Jackson lived for.
Death is not a full stop, but a coma which I believe will punctuate Michael to a more lofty significance. Rest in peace Wacko Jacko
