Al Sharpton on Michael Jackson

TresSugar — Tue, 07 Jul 2009 14:20:00 -0700

“It was Michael Jackson that brought blacks and whites and Asians and Latinos together. Because Michael Jackson kept going, he created a comfort level, where people that felt they were separate became interconnected with his music. Later, it wasn’t strange to watch Oprah on television. It wasn’t strange to watch Tiger Woods golf.” [MJ made people] “comfortable to vote for a person of color for president.”

– Rev. Al Sharpton at Michael Jackson's memorial service. His songs from Thriller were the first songs from a black recording artist to be played in heavy rotation on MTV, paving the way for other black artists during a time when the music channel featured mostly white artists.

Say What? Lawmaker Blasts US For Glorifying Perverted MJ

"He was a pervert, a child molester; he was a pedophile. And to be giving this much coverage to him, day in and day out, what does it say about us as a country? I just think we're too politically correct."

New York congressman Peter King (no relation to the king of pop) blasted society's glorification of the late Michael Jackson. King conceded that Michael Jackson "may have been a good singer" and "did some dancing" - but he maintained that in the end, there's nothing good to say about the controversial entertainer.

What Is Your Favorite Michael Jackson Song?

TresSugar — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 04:00:00 -0700

I'm still in shock that Michael Jackson, an artist who contributed so much to popular culture, is no longer with us. Luckily for all his fans, his music lives on. Out of all his 13 number one songs and countless other hits, it's hard to pick my favorite MJ song. If I had to choose, my top three would be Do You Remember the Time for its amazing Egyptian-themed video, Black or White for its inclusive message, and I'll Be There for the power of young Michael's vocals.

As everyone remembers his legacy in their own way, tell me - what's your favorite Michael Jackson song?
