Introduction
BORN
Michael Jackson was born in Gary,
Indiana on August 29, 1958. Michael's
father, Joe Jackson, worked as a crane
operator at a steel mill. His mother,
Katherine, took care of the family and
sometimes took part time jobs. Both of
Michael's parents loved music. His dad
played guitar for an R & B band and his
mother sang and played the piano.
Growing up, all of the Jackson children
were encouraged to study music.
Early Age Of
Michael Jackson
Michael Jackson was interested in
singing at the age of 5, his family
were fairly poor. When Michael’s
father Joe Jackson saw that his
children were talented we made a
band of Jackson 5. At the age of 8
Michael Jackson showed his
parent how talented he was and
was gifted. Michael Jackson
became the leader and singing
leader of the Jackson 5 gang
because he was gifted
Teenage Life
While still singing with the Jackson 5,
Michael had a number of solo albums. At
first his solo career didn't take off, but he
did have a few hit songs including "Ben"
and "Got to Be There." However, in 1978
Michael met music producer Quincy Jones
while working on the set of the movie The
Wiz. He broke away from the family band
and worked on his first "grown up" album.
In 1979, Michael released the album
Off the Wall. It was a huge hit and had
four top ten songs including the
number one singles "Rock with You"
and "Don't Stop 'til You Get Enough."
Michael was now one of the biggest
stars in music

Michael Jackson´s
New Realised Songs
Michael wanted to follow up Off the Wall with an even bigger
album. This was going to be quite the task. He worked with
Quincy Jones again and in late 1982 released the album Thriller.
The album was a huge success. It had seven top ten singles and
won eight Grammy awards. Eventually, Thriller would become
the bestselling album of all time. Michael had now become the
biggest star in the music industry. In addition to the music on
Thriller, Michael also broke new ground with his music videos.
Up until that time, most music videos just showed the band or
singer performing the song. Michael wanted to create a story
with his videos. These new types of music videos became very
popular and changed the way music videos were made. The most
famous of his videos was a 13 minutes long video for the
album's title song Thriller. It was later voted as the most
influential music video of all time.

sudden and unexpected, leaving many grieving fans wondering what happened. An
unidentified man called 911 from Jackson’s California mansion at 12:21 p.m. He
reported that Jackson was unconscious and not breathing. In excerpts from the call,
the man said that Jackson’s personal doctor was the only other person present and
was performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation on the unconscious Jackson without
results. “He’s pumping, he’s pumping his chest but he’s not responding to anything,
sir, please,” the caller said. The caller is still unidentified.
Arguments
I chose Michael Jackson because he is one of the most influential artists in the
world. Despite the negative things that the media said about him, Michael was
a great man as he helped the children of the world, donating millions of dollars
to foundations.
I admire his music since some have the way of taking care of the world.
