Since news of Michael Jackson's death last June 25, friends and fans have expressed their reactions about the sudden and shocking death of the King of Pop. Truly, Michael Jackson is legendary, he has contributed a lot in the music industry, he also become an inspiration to every generation. June 25 was the saddest day for the music industry, Michael Jackson was taken by ambulance with symptoms of a heart attack. He passed away soon afterwards. The news of Michael Jackson passing away is troubling, as he was set to begin a comeback and was only 50 years of age. The Jackson family commented soon after he was admitted that he was in bad shape. The King of Pop began his career at a very young age as a member of the Jackson 5, and later had great success as a solo artist, including Thriller – the best selling album of all time - and many thought he'd never need to think of payday lenders again – RIP Michael Jackson.
