They can't have the 1980s without Thriller. Perfect composition, production, vocals, videos. He really perfected perfection. RIP.

Michael opened so many doors for his community within music through his art proving that Black people can deliver the same, in this case significantly better quality in music videos/short films than their white contemporaries. RIP Michael
