THE LEGENDARY Michael Jackson has passed away at the age of 50. The King of Pop suffered cardiac arrest early Thursday afternoon and paramedics were unable to revive him. According to reports, when the paramedics arrived to his home Jackson had no pulse and they never got a pulse back.
Michael is survived by three children: Michael Joseph Jackson, Jr., Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince “Blanket” Michael Jackson II.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the Jackson family at this terrible time.
i am a michael jackson fan, i am so sorry that he had to leave us so soon, my prayers are with his family, may god continue to bless you in the time of bereavement, with he loss of your brother, son, father, uncle. the world will never be the same and there will never ever be another michael jackson.
I cried all last night and I just couldn’t believe that MJ was just was gone! I too have a Heavy heart about MJ’s passing he was truely an icon and a legend and inspired many. I hate to say this but I going to be real, that last public case Mj had that everyone who didn’t love he , the media, the news even was so cruel to MJ it took its toll on MJ the Stress of the trail. You may not believe me but stress has a funny way of damaging the body even years later. Remember the doctors even said yesterday as reported by CNN,etc that MJ had no signs of sickness etc. I say it was the stress. I honestly felt that MJ’s come back tour was he’s last; I just wish he would have been ablet to perform one last time, just one more time…………………..Tears We should have never lost MJ this soon, its not fair! Forever a Michael Jackson fan even until the end, always! Love and my support to the Jackson family.
Micheal , you were one of a kind…RIP
Good Morning CL,
I’m still a little dazed by the passing of Michael Jackson. I am very thankful though to be alive and blessed with this very special talent that is Michael Jackson. I wish nothing but peace for Michael and I hope now he feels the comfort and love of our Heavenly Father….never alone like he used to feel. I’ll pray for comfort for his family as well….Dear God please hold them!
Michael if you ever wondered if you still had it….I hope now that you know you are still and ALWAYS will be the best! *tearing up*
I have been up all night watching MTV.BET,CNN like I am hoping this is all a mistake and he’s not gone.
I ‘ve been a fan since the 70′s when they were called the Jackson Five. I was a member of their “official fan club” and would wait patiently for my fan mail. There would always be plenty of black and white photos and information about the boys in the band. Micheal was so cute!
My first concert was a J5 concert here at the fabulous Kiel auditorium. I was so excited! I picked out this white “hot pants outfit” that had a bolero lace top with white patent go-go boots. My ‘fro was huge. I looked good!!!!
I went to the concert with my cousin who was also an avid J5 fan. Can you believe the “Isley Brothers” opened up for them? The auditorium was packed with thousands of rabid teen girls.
When time came for the J5 to perform, the theatre was pitch balck and quiet with anticipation. Suddenly they were there on stage singing -Stop the Love You Save! We went wild!
These guys were so fly with their big afros, vest, brightly colored shirts and striped bell bottom pants. There were beautiful to look at as well as being talented. Micheal could sing and his dance moves were like that of a young James Brown.
I continued to watch his career blossom as he grew older. He was obviously a man filled with pain surrounded by scandal and inuendo. Can you imagine being under the microscope of all the paparazzi and having to leave your home and country just to find peace?
I’m not implying gilt or innocence. I guess his heart couldn’t take anymore grief.
I pray you are finally at rest Micheal.
I greww up listening to MJ he was a quiet soul who spole through his music his songs were never degrating never filled with cussing just about love and loving people he will truly be miss but his dancing and music will live forever my heart is having but he is dancing in heaven my prayers go out to his family much love and reapect to each and every member and his children.
Michael I have been following you since I was 2yrs old. I remember watching your cartoon while sitting on my rocking horse.
I will deeply miss you! You have made a positive impact on my generation.
No matter what? You will always remain the king of POP..
I love you, and I will miss you!!!
This is so sad and shocking…R.I.P. Michael!
I’m really sad about this
R.I.P. Michael Jackson!!!
His death is dodgy, sumthin doesnt seem rite to me.
I pray from the bottom of my heart that someone like him who gave so much joy to ppl rest in peace.
May God have mercy
My childhood has been murdered and I wasnt ready to say goodbye,
I’ll always remember him as the man who made my sisters and I try to dance/sing like him !
Memories, love, music, that’s all I keep from him
I was on my way home from work when i heard the bad news. OMG please have Micheal in your hands. RIP Michael Jackson. He’s now in a better place.
I hope his family is doing ok. My prayers go out to his family.
Today is a very sad day. Micheal Jackson was able to bring together people of different races, ethnicities, religions, beliefs and genders in Love. His gift lives on in the legacy of the music he left behind. Rest in peace Michael Jackson, my condolences to the Jackson family and the world, this is trully all of our loss.
sad,sad,sad day….God Please give the Jackson Family Understancing,Wisdom and peace to get through this very trying time. Also let them know Who Their God is and everything is done with a purpose. Luv Ya Mike!!!!!

My prayers go out to his parents, Janet, Jermaine the rest of his family.
GOD BLESS MICHAEL JACKSON
It never ceases to amaze me how wrapped up this society is in idolatry, man worship, and hypocrisy. If Michael Jackson were still alive and there were a post on him, it would be 50-60 comments of how crazy he is and how ridiculous he looks. Now the man finally was taken out of his misery and he re-attains “god” status, smh. Michael Jackson’s vessel was removed from the physical plane yesterday but the man has been dead for years. He’s been dead from the time his father gave him over to Berry Gordy to be defiled and molested. The man became a pedophile, a laughingstock, a pariah, and above and beyond that, his music was filled with subliminal satanic messages and witchcraft. Gimme a break with the bull$hit.
I was a child in the 80′s. When Thriller was out, I was in elementary school. I had a GREAT childhood & Michael Jackson was a part of it. His music, his dance moves, his fashion. Who didn’t know someone who had a Thriller or Beat It coat? Or some penny loafers with a penny in them? Or growing up in the 80′s when you went outside to play, you & your friends were outside trying to learn the Thriller routine? Then when I was in high school, Michael released Dangerous & I remember EVERYBODY talking about the Remember The Time video the next day at school and the dance break in the video. Michael Jackson was SIMPLY THE BEST. Period. I am so heartbroken right now. I just wish this was all a crazy nightmare I could wake up from. There will NEVER be another Michael. Never. RIP Michael.
Even the earth cried yesterday…the world was too sad….I never seen the sky soooo pretty in my life…I cant even detail how gorgeous the clouds were, and how the sunset made the clouds appear as if they were reaching at you…it was as if I was witnessing the heaven move and shake….I knew then Michael had the angels partying…..im sooo happy that hes in peace now…go ahead MJ and do whatever you want now…now you dont have to worry about no more mean people…..Thank you for your music…man In the mirror is the greatest song ever.
When I heard he was in the hospital because of a heart attack, I was thinking “Yeah right!” They been saying MJ was sick for YEARS!! I never brought into the hype! But when I flipped through all the major news channels, and then went on TMZ last night, my mouth dropped! You mean to tell me that Mr. Invincible is gone??? I promise, I never thought I’d see the day that MJ was pronounced DEAD!!! I still can’t believe it!! I STILL remember seeing “Remember The Time” for the first time… they played it over and over when it premiered. Even at such a young age, I could tell that he was big time!! I’m never ever gonna forget this day for as long as I live!! Hearing that Michael Jackson has died is like someone snatching my childhood away from me! This hurts EXTREMELY bad, and I’ve NEVER been a stan!! R.I.P. Mr. Jackson, and I send all my love to the Jackson family, especially his three children. We just lost the greatest thing that ever happened to music, but they lost their father! I don’t even have anymore words…
I want to address all the POSITIVE posters here on Concreteloop, don’t even bother to entertain the redundant comments of people who can’t even be respectful of a person who died and his family who is grieving the loss of their brother, son, uncle, cousin & dad. Regardless of what the negative posters on here say, and regardless of the people who didn’t agree with his life or thought he was a monster, this man to Joe & Katherine was their SON. To Jermaine, Janet, Marlon and so on, he was their BROTHER. To Paris, Blanket & Prince he was their DAD. So just out of RESPECT for them, there shouldn’t even be ONE negative comment on this board today. It’s not my blog, but if it was, those particular comments would be striaght up deleted and banned on this day of mourning. Ridiculous & pitiful to say the least.
The greatest performer to put on penny loafers. I get chills watching the genious videos. Atleast we have them. Greastest star ever.
CL should ban JUDAH for his ignorant comment. WE all know Michael did look a mess (that is just the truth) and that he had issues BUT that doesnt mean we can’t MOURN his passing. Of course people cracked jokes about him but that didn’t mean we didn’t love him. So don’t come in here on your high horse looking down on us as if we are hypocrites. I feel you if you don’t have anything POSITIVE to say about someone who has just passed, leave you’re comments to YOURSELF.
*Your
By the way I am still in shock. I just can’t believe he’s gone. Wow. It certainly felt like I was in a bad dream yesterday.
Judah give us a break from YOUR bs! I cannot figure out why you are allowed to post on CL, but w/e
Sad day…RIP
Judah…(smile) I can honestly say that you are the main reason why I read CL:)
@MAI03
Well you should go set up a blog to talk about how much you love a PEDOPHILE. Are you a PEDOPHILE? Two cannot walk together unless they be agreed, so for you to exalt and lament a PEDOPHILE, you must be a PEDOPHILE. You have the nerve to rant about his children. Well what about the children he molested? Damn clown. Who are you to set up parameters for who should say what, lol? To Joe Jackson, he was a cash cow. That’s why he sent him to Berry Gordy to be molested, so that he could be initiated into the inner orders of the industry. Then that sexual deviant, Quincy Jones, got his hands on him. Michael Jackson was just a sex toy that was passed around the industry. That’s why the man was so confused and self-hateful. Your problem is that you and others worship him as a god. That’s what the subliminal usage of the terms “King of Pop” and “icon” are all about, deification. What is all this nonsense, “I can’t believe that he died!”, smh? He’s a human isn’t he? Don’t human beings die?
I cannot watch the Major News Stations… He can you still only focus on the negitive… Thank God for Black Radio.
@Chocolate Drop and Mother Jefferson
When someone rapes your children, I hope that you both mourn their passing.
Rest In Peace…michael jackson
there wil never be another Legend like you
This is a sad day but we know he wil be in a better place …..i love you foreve
@ Judah
I don’t think anybody (well at least not myself) “worshipped” MJ I think that anytime a person, a man, that you’ve watched over the years dies, it does make you make sad. Any loss of life is sad. *shrugs*
I feel like Florida off Gd Times !! when they read that letter about james!! Im still in shock!!!! and evrything on-line is on BACKORDER ! !! glad i got 4 orgnl cd’s ! ! dm!!

Best Artist to ever live. Many Blessings to you family ‘

You are missed
Maybe I’m the only one who feels this way, but the stranger Micheal got, the more I rooted for him. He has achieved GREATNESS in his music career. I jus wanted to see him make a BIG comeback. You can tell make has a good heart. Wasn’t a big MJ fan, but Thriller is my ALL TIME favorite video. Love ya MJ
Judah….oh Judah. You know this is a post about MJ’s death, but is there anyone’s music that doesn’t have subliminal satanic codes/messages???
rest in peace MJ.. it’s soooo sad.. he was an idol of my parents, i knew him all of my life, when i was 4 for christmas i get my first his cassette (double) .. damn.. i didn’t knew him, but he was in my life all the time.. my mum told me a story.. when in my country was communism (i’m from poland) she and her sis, were listening him on some demaged radio.. sound was so bad, but it was mj and he was sign for them that somewhere in this world is a better place.. there will be no bigger man, artist than he.. luv. ola from poland.
damn
MIKE I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU!
NOW YOUR SOUL CAN R.I.P!
MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS GO OUT TO THE JACKSON FAMILY!
YOU WILL AND ALWAYS WILL BE “THE KING OF POP”!
@Sigh
No sis, this negro gets worshiped, and that is because of the image that was put forth through the television. There is no debate concerning his massive talent. The issue is the spin that is being put on his so-called legacy. The fact of the matter is that he was a pedophile. The man invited demons into his spirit after he was defiled as a child and that is why he was exalted. Death is a part of life. People cannot accept that fact, because for all the talk of “God” and “Heaven”, people really don’t believe in that. They just regurgitate it because it makes them feel good to do so. That is why when the time comes to make that transition to the spiritual plane, people are scared. Hitler is dead too, let me not say anything bad about him. That’s the logic being used.
I love you Mikey. The world has definitely losst a great man yesterday. You will never die in our hearts, you will live for ever! RIP. I hope you can find some peace in death, that you were not able to find in life.
@ Judah
(smile) aight I see your point…lol
All of my friends are calling me and asking if I’m ok, they know that I am a true MJ fan to my heart!
I know every word to any of his songs, Michael will be missed, I mean truly missed!
this is something that you just don’t get over, I cried all the way home because it seemed like someone had just told me my brother had just passed away!
Wow Mike, like your song says GONE TO SOON!
I have to go now because Im starting to cry all over again.
RIP Mike Luv Kiddo!
MICHAEL JACKSON is the best entertainer we will ever see in this life. He was not only a singer,dancer,producer,actor,he was most importantly a HUMANITARIAN. He truly loved people. He was to so many of us a brother/friend. We grew up listening to his music. He taught us all how to dance. He will be greatly missed. He is now in a better place. His work on this earth was done.
The man gave his soul over to the Baphomet anyway. That is what happens, they are given superstardom and fame, while everything else is slowly siphoned away from them, including their sanity, until they’re a mockery of yourself. This is why EVERY LAST ONE of these entertainers dies broke as a joke or in massive debt. They live off credit and the prospects of future shows. This is why they never retire.
WELL PEOPLE WILL ALWAYS HAVE THEIR OPINIONS (GOOD AND BAD) ABOUT MICHAEL BUT NO ONE CAN EVER DENY HOW TALENTED THIS MAN WAS. HE IS THE REASON MANY OF TODAY’S ARTISTS EVEN EXIST. I’M GLAD I GOT THE CHANCE TO EXPERIENCE THE OLD SCHOOL MICHAEL THAT MADE SOME OF THE GREATEST MUSIC OF ALL TIME AND IF YOU EVER GOT THE CHANCE TO ATTEND ONE OF HIS CONCERTS YOU COULD FEEL THE LOVE PEOPLE (OF ALL RACES, AGES, AND BACKGROUNDS) HAD FOR HIM.
AND JUST FOR THE RECORD..I NEVER FOR ONE MINUTE BELIEVED ANY OF THE MOLESTATION RUMORS. MICHAEL KNEW WHAT IT WAS TO BE A TORMENTED CHILD. HE WANTED TO MAKE CHILDREN SMILE, BE HAPPY, AND EXPERIENCE A REAL CHILDHOOD LIKE THE ONE HE NEVER HAD. I TRULY BELIEVE HE HAD NOTHING BUT GOOD INTENTIONS. IT WAS OTHER PEOPLE THAT DIDN’T UNDERSTAND HIM THAT WANTED TO MAKE WHAT HE TRIED TO DO INTO SOMETHING DIRTY (AND ANY PARENT THAT WOULD SETTLE FOR MONEY IN A CASE WHERE THEIR CHILD WAS ALLEGEDLY MOLESTED IS QUESTIONABLE TO ME ANYWAY).
SO I DON’T CARE WHAT ANYONE SAYS..MICHAEL IS AN ICON, A LEGEND, AND HE WILL BE MISSED.
Judah you are such a sad individual. When someone challenges what you say you immediately jump on the defensive & put us down like we are unintelligent human beings and you are the only one with sense and knowledge. In your demented mind, I’ts ok for you to say negative things about people but no one can challenge your comment or view. Um yeah, ok. Let me give you a reality check oh ignorant one, YOU ARENT GOD!!!!!!!!!!!! You don’t know what he did. were you in the room with him and the kids? Did you WITNESS IT WITH YOUR OWN EYES? Only GOD knows the truth and YOU ARENT GOD!!!!!
You don’t know who I worship–you only assume. You assume everyone is offended by your comments when we challenge you. I’m not afraid to. And how do you know i was refering to you? The guilty ALWAYS speak.
Like I said before, pitiful to say the least. This man has family and kids. You don’t know what he did–you just assume and think you know. You don’t know, I don’t know. Only God knows and you sir are not God.
Now i know you’ll respond, but im not anymore. I said what i had to say and out of respect for his passing, i wont go back & forth with you.
AS THE SAYING GOES: HEAVY IS THE HEAD THAT WEARS THE CROWN.
MICHAEL YOU WERE THE KING. THE BEST @ WHAT YOU DID. YOU HAVE MADE YOUR MARK IN HISTORY. NO ONE CAN TAKE THAT AWAY FROM YOU. PEOPLE ARE HERE BRINGING UP NEGATIVE THINGS BUT THE MICHAEL I LOVE IS THE ONE WHO OPENED HOSPITALS FOR CHILDREN ALL OVER THE WORLD, GAVE OVER $300 MILLION DOLLARS TO CHARITIES, HELPED RAISE AWARENESS ABOUT THE SUFFERING IN AFRICA, AND COUNTLESS OTHER ACTS OF KINDNESS & GENEROSITY THAT SOME PEOPLE WILL NEVER EVEN KNOW ABOUT. IT REALLY DOESN’T EVEN MATTER WHAT SOME PEOPLE THINK OF YOU. YOU CAN LAY YOUR BURDENS DOWN NOW AND REST PEACEFULLY. YOU ARE DONE WITH THE TROUBLES OF THIS WORLD. I’M JUST THANKFUL THAT YOUR MUSIC WILL LAST FOREVER!
MY CONDOLENCES TO THE FAMILY
Chris Brown should do a Tribute to Michael at the upcoming BET Awards…
I saw BET showing their Top 10 Moments and Michael was in one of them..
I hear people suggest Usher, but I find he is too over the top for me..
Chris Brown did a Tribute before I think at the World Music Awards and he was really Natural and I enjoyed the performance..
R.I.P Michael…
