Sad, sad news has hit the music world today. Michael Jackson, the "King of Pop" passed away Thursday afternoon due to cardiac arrest. Jackson was fifty years old.
Legendary Jackson producer and long-time friend, Quincy Jones released an official statement Thursday:
"I am absolutely devastated at this tragic and unexpected news. For Michael to be taken away from us so suddenly at such a young age, I just don't have the words.
Divinity brought our souls together on The Wiz and allowed us to do what we were able to throughout the 80's.
To this day, the music we created together on "Off The Wall," "Thriller" and "Bad" is played in every corner of the world and the reason for that is because he had it all…talent, grace, professionalism and dedication.
He was the consummate entertainer and his contributions and legacy will be felt upon the world forever."
We are truly saddened by the news. Michael was one of the greatest artists of our time, and his music will live on in our hearts. Share your favorite Michael Jackson song / moment here.
