In the world of pop music, there are very few stars who have become legends like Michael Jackson. His name is engraved not only in the pop genre but also in the entire history of modern music. Michael’s work, his stage movements, his music videos, and even his personal life have amazed the world. His image, voice, and movements have become a source of inspiration for an entire generation. The following article describes in detail the achievements, mysterious life, and unique features of the king of pop music, Michael Jackson.
Talent began before school
Michael Jackson took to the stage at the age of five, starting in the family group “Jackson 5.” Even as a child, he became the main leader of the group, charming the audience with his attractive voice and stage movements. Even today, many fans watch his early video recordings with great amazement.
Thriller — a revolution in the art of music video
The “Thriller” clip, released in 1983, took not only Michael but the entire art of the music video to a new level. Its script, makeup, and choreography were all on the level of a movie. This video became not only one of the most watched but also set a new standard for music videos.
Smooth Criminal and the technopatent
The famous forward lean in Michael’s "Smooth Criminal" video is the perfect harmony of technology and stage skill. He obtained a special patent for this move, which allowed him to maintain such balance with the help of a special board and shoes.
Attitude towards nature and the environment
For every million copies sold of the “Bad” album, he pledged to plant a tree somewhere in the world. As a result, it was reported that more than 30 million trees were planted. This shows how much he respected nature and adhered to principles of humanity.
Low-voiced genius and attention to health
Michael’s daily voice was very low and calm, but on stage he preferred to speak in the well-known high and closed voice. He also strictly observed hygiene, and because of fear of microbes (mysophobia), he wore a mask in public places.
Book-loving star
Michael was not only into music but also loved knowledge. His personal library contained tens of thousands of books on various topics: philosophy, psychology, history, art, and others.
Love for animals
His chimpanzee, Bubbles, was not only a pet but also a close friend, companion, and concert partner for Michael. Their friendship was considered a unique phenomenon not only in show business but also in popular culture.
“Spider-Man” dream
Michael really wanted to play the role of “Spiderman” and even tried to buy Marvel. He was so close to this role that he imagined himself as Peter Parker.
Stage performance unlike anyone else
On stage, Michael often used his “astonish the audience by standing motionless” technique. He could stand silently and without moving for several minutes, which impressed fans even more and evoked strong emotions.
Style of music creation
Not knowing how to read music, Michael imitated all the instruments with his voice. He recorded various attractive melodies and rhythms on a tape recorder and presented them to musicians as compositions. This unique “vocalizing” style helped him create extraordinary songs.
Vitiligo and the truth
Many think that Michael’s turning white was due to plastic surgery. In fact, he suffered from vitiligo and used cosmetic methods to hide the white spots on his skin. Later, he used special means to make his skin color uniform.
Extensive charity work
Michael Jackson is recognized as the most charitable artist in history. He provided great support to various hospitals, children’s rights protection centers, and disaster victims.
Uniqueness in stage costumes
His famous golden jacket was handmade from real metal parts. Despite the heaviness of the outfit, Michael loved to wear it at concerts. Every stage appearance of his strove for perfection in design and style.
Oxygen capsule and sleep experiment
There were many rumors that Michael slept in an oxygen capsule to slow aging. Although this was partly for publicity, he was not afraid to experiment with such things as well.
Conclusion
Michael Jackson is not just a music performer — he is a leader of an entire cultural movement, a symbol of technology, aesthetics, generosity, and humanity. His life and work still inspire millions of people today. He left behind a mark that touched so many hearts, and that mark will never fade with the years. Read 'Zamin' on Telegram!
