For many, Michael Jackson will be remembered as the King of Pop. For me, I will remember him as the King of Dance. His unique moves, daring crotch grabs, and slick choreography will always be etched into my mind, even when his untimely death fades from memory. His style transcends past and present generations and has strongly influenced the creative music minds and dance moves of pop icons like Justin Timberlake and Usher.

Although his troubled later years have attempted to tarnish his icon status, many look past the child pedophile accusations, odd behavior, and his drastic physical appearance changes to remember the Billie Jean glory days and the genius of his creativity. His legacy will live on in the hearts and minds of those who fell in love with his music, style, and dance. Rest in Peace, Gloved One.
