Now I'm In Your World Like Hip Hop: The Legendary King of My Heart.

"In our darkest hour, in my deepest despair, will you still care? Will you be there? In my trials and my tribulations, through our doubts and frustrations; in my violence, in my turbulence, through my fear and my confessions; in my anguish and my pain, through my joy and my sorrow, in the promise of another tomorrow; I'll never let you part, for you're always in my heart." - Michael Jackson

I can't believe that it was a year ago, today, when we lost the king of pop; the legendary man who was never washed out by the transitions and changes of music throughout 50 solid years. I was never around to witness him in the 80s but I caught up to his early music as I grew and was always a fan since. The moon walking, the high pitched 'A-HEE-HEE's, the outfits, defying gravity in Smooth Criminal, the twirl to leg kick to the jump on toes to the grabbing of the nuts.. Irreplaceable.

I truly believe that this world will never witness such a prophecy ever again; a star from childhood to adulthood, successful in every musical creation put out for the world to love, and that makes me sad. I remember being a child and watching a concert that was recorded onto a VHS. I remember seeing men and women of all ages screaming, crying, fainting, being crushed by the fence and I was in awe; not because of the power and effect that he had over his fans, but because this man was FLYING OVER THE DAMN CROWD!! OVER MILLIONS OF FANS, FLYING!! Hahaha.. Of course, back then I didn't realize that he was being held up by cords and shit but still amazing.

Michael Jackson, YOU are A LEGEND at your own level of greatness that surpasses far beyond any other legends in my mind. You're legacy and music will live on for many generations to come. God knows I'll have my kids hooked on your shit when the day comes. You will be truly missed in our world and in the world of music. To me, you are still alive; immortal. May your soul soar the highest skies and be at peace in the most serene environment. We miss you.
