This has been a tough week for me because I still cannot believe he died so quickly and suddenly. His life was amazing and if only he could have lived it without all the lies. No entertainer has matched his gifts to charity, before "help africa" was popular he was sending funds down there and produced a mega hit. He never denied his identity though he faced the scorn from those who felt he did. He remains one of the few artists that has used more dark colored women of color as leads in his videos not because he was forced. He single handeledy changed race relations in america and he did it positively. If only america could really realize the gem that he was.
I will always love you Michael I hope you are in peace and surrounded with love. Thank you Lord for all that you did through Michael not only for me but for all who were really touched by his genius.
I know what you mean Crystal. What a unusual human being he was. May his soul rest in peace.

Yeah Jen. Unusual in the sense that he had such a wonderfully large heart and great compassion for others able to make his own way in a world that had limited so many others. He made some black people more comfortable with themselves and bought hope to them that it may be possible to control their destiny. A strong black man and because of his stregnth he faced many trials but he stood stronger. He controlled his destiny. Its very rare to see that coming out of america and even the world over, at least for black men. Side note AEG did his memorial real good and on shorter notice than BET.
