R.I.P M.J



Can't believe it's been a year since Michael Jackson passed.I remember vividly where I was when I heard this tragic news. When I got up this morning and realized that it has been 1 year since Michael's passing I turned on the T.V, and almost every channel was playing M.J videos and having tribute specials, then I thought to myself if this man was still living the media probably would still be cracking jokes and still forming more judgmental thoughts and opinions just because he had a different way of living, morals and values. Most of us heard Mr. Nigga by Mos Def.

"You can laugh and criticize Michael Jackson if you wanna
Woody Allen, molested and married his step-daughter
Same press kickin dirt on Michael's name
Show Woody and Soon-Yi at the playoff game, holdin hands
Sit back and just bug, think about that
Would he get that type of dap if his name was Woody Black?"



With that being said, does Someone have to die for us to appreciate what they've done and for there work to impact us? I always wonder what happend if Marvin wasn't shot, or if Bob Marley was still alive. Would there messages be as meaningful as they are today?
