you know what (regarding the pic) -people want to remember people how they were at their peak....i like to remember people as whole, but i just thought that picture was more fitting, he was past his little kid phase, he was past his thriller days, he was past his light brown Dangerous days, and he was just passing his child molestation accusation phase...so i want to remember him like that, just thankful, weird, but still full of energy and just wanting to be in front of people entertaining-plus i saw it fitting that he's pointing up. -and you know what (regarding my sentence)-i grew up with prince and michael jackson.....although i liked more and feel prince was the better artist and his music was better, michael jackson was always that larger than life super hero that you had in your tape deck and walk man. for our generation we didn't have a moment like our parents had when JFK died.....Elvis....or JohnLennon...... the closest thing our generation had was 2pac....and even that pales....PALES in comparison to the loss of michael, growing up that's ALL everyone listened to....that's ALL everyone mimicked at their first dance or birthday party. if you're an 80's baby your child hood is defined by ninja turtles, Nickleodeon, and Michael Jackson....
yeah most definitely, i'd go as far as saying the most popular person in the entire world regardless of his realm of business....perhaps one of the most famous person in the hisotry of the world period. jesus status.

i cried i'm not going to lie.....fuck it....i cried at least 3 times, all this news coverage keeps remindin' me how much of loss this really is. then you got to worry about his children growing up without their father...i did that and that sucks to know they're going to be in the same boat but have all sorts of fucked up problems on top of that because of the media and shit. plus dude lived a lonely ass life, depressing me just thinking about that.
+1 Quiet.5 friends, including NIK texted me the new simultaneously while I was doing some training at work. I didn't check the texts until the training was done, when I immediately teared up and needed to take a break to call the homies to get the scoop.-T
