Michael Jackson is an American musician, entertainer, and businessman. The seventh child of the Jackson family, he debuted on the professional music scene at the age of 11 as a member of The Jackson 5 and began a solo career in 1971 while still a member of the group. Referred to as the "King of Pop" in subsequent years, five of his solo studio albums have become some of the world's best-selling records: Off the Wall, Thriller, Bad, Dangerous and HIStory.

In the early 1980s, he became a dominant figure in popular music and the first African-American entertainer to amass a strong crossover following on MTV. The popularity of his music videos airing on MTV, such as "Beat It," "Billie Jean," and Thriller—credited for transforming the music video into an art form and a promotional tool—helped bring the relatively new channel to fame. Videos such as "Black or White" and "Scream" kept Jackson as a staple on MTV into the 1990s. With stage performances and music videos, Jackson popularized a number of physically complicated dance techniques, such as the robot and the moonwalk. His distinctive musical sound and vocal style influenced numerous hip hop, pop and contemporary R&B artists. One of the few artists to have been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice, his other achievements include multiple Guinness World Records—including one for Thriller as the world's best-selling album—13 Grammy Awards, 13 number one singles in his solo career—more than any other male artist in the Hot 100 era—and the sale of over 750 million units worldwide.

Jackson's highly publicized personal life, coupled with his successful career, has made him a part of popular culture for almost four decades. In recent years he has been cited as one of the world's most famous men.

I would like to see his family buy back the Neverland Ranch and make it into a Michael Jackson Museum and theme park.

Also would love to see all his outfits, albums etc in it. Also would love the family to buy back all his sold possessions such as the infamous white glove and put it where it belongs. And his family, friends and fans could also contribute anything they thought would make it better.

This museum could be like Elvis' at Graceland. It could also help the family pay back his massive debt so his kids don't have to worry about it.

Only for it to become a Museum, he didn't want to return there after the police raided it. So I don't think he should be buried there, but it shouldn't be sold off. It is a piece of Pop history, just like Graceland.

I hope to make such an impact when I die.

We love you Michael!
