He was groomed to become a mega star by the 80s, he basically practiced all of the late 60s and the entire 70s, by the 80s he already mastered his craft.

Michael was born to be a star and he became the biggest star on the planet! It was his destiny. His spirit is undeniable! He was so special. 12 years later, it's still hard to accept he's gone.

80s is the greatest decade of music ever and Michael Jackson completely dominated it.
Off The Wall, Thriller, Bad will always be on history books, musically and for their huge importance/impact.
He reached a peak that nobody ever reach before or since, he broke down racial barriers and showed that a black artist may be as big as the biggest white icons.
Of course many at the time didn’t like it and tried to put him down after that.
But they couldn’t erase what MJ did especially during that decade.

Michael Jackson towered the 80s the way no superstar before or since has dominated the era. In an era before the Advent of the internet and social media which are avenues that greatly boost an artist's reach, MJ was already in the remotest villages of the world way before electricity got there. The cultural impact MJ had on a global level is simply unmatched!

[reneishabrooks]

The people who got to fully experience this decade of MJ were truly lucky. He still was the GOAT in the 90s but the 80s that man controlled music.

[bookworm]

When anyone talks about the 1980s, Michael Jackson is the first person to pop into my head.
That's because Michael Joe Jackson is the King of the '80s! Nuff said!
God, we miss this talented, warm, funny, and gorgeous human being!

The editors in this channel are just next level with the mindblowing content of the KING of POP

[BadAssMacmillan]

The biggest peak of any artist ever. I don’t think people in the west realise how globally famous he is. I live in a small town in Saudi Arabia called Ad-Dilam and literally everyone knows him here from children to elders. He is the most well known foreign person in my country. He’s also the first foreign celebrity I have heard of. We will never see a star as big as him ever again.

Michael couldn't see his own physical beauty, and the world refused to see his inner beauty. A pure and gentle soul, a musical and dance genius. He flies on eagle's wings, free at last❤🕊RIP MJ the world did you wrong you deserved better.

The most dominant decade by any artist EVER 🎶

[sammbabazi]

Michael Jackson is the best entertainer to ever walk this earth! He totally owned the 1970's, 1980's, 90's, 2000's...he set records nobody has broken! And he looked so cute...all the way since his birth

[biancacdakitteee]

He dressed like the KING that he is. Best music, awesome dancing AND THE BEST DRESSED IN THE WHOLE BLOODY INDUSTRY.

When Michael said "love is my message" and smiled at the camera, it basically made my day 110% better

[TheFever]

Michael’s fame and popularity will never be matched. Back then he was mythical, almost other worldly. All this in a world with no in-home internet, social media or smartphones.

[frederickifill]

I’m honestly gonna sit, watch and enjoy the greatest decade an artist has every had in music IN THE 80’s

[T.T.LovesAmbience]

You can't compete with a genius. M.J. was a musical genius.

[kareemeverison]

Michael Jackson had it all the Handsome Good Looks, Fashion Style, Great Dance Moves and Amazing Voice, and showmanship he was The Greatest Ever

[brendarayford]

Michael's talent was a gift from God meant to be shared with world. He became the biggest recording artist of all time and still was a humble, thankful, giving, living person. RIP King of pop!

[Phillyhippie]

This decade was just earth shattering as a whole. Whitney, Michael, Janet, Prince, Madonna. They shook the foundation of society. It’s as if the young generation finally had a strong hold vs politics.
