omg when MJ died I was the first one in my family to notice and I called and let everyone know and no one believed me. It was a huge deal, we were all raised on his music.
jflzdfl am finna get lashed for this, but I said it way back.
When MJ died I got happy. I didn't know he was a singer. I just thought he was a pedophile.
Kids in school always said he was a pedophile, and made some weird song up about it. + they would always say 'If Michael Jackson told you to come to his house would you?'.
His reputation was TARNISHED. People my age literally knew him for being a pedo more than a musician.
What a mess!
I actually remember where I was when I heard that he died. I was outside my house playing catch.
Blackoutney was fiercer than any version of her that followed.

And she also managed to slay this performance 3 months after shaving her head.
I didn't really have that big of an association with Whitney. My parents didn't like her so I only knew her from the Brandy Cinderella movie () and How Will I Know/My Heart Will Go On. I didn't really discover her until after she died.
IHype is so right about MJ being more known by the youth as a pedo than the King of Pop. I didn't know him as a musician until I saw Ciara talking about Remember The Time on TV.

Her heel really did break during the performance. Still would have been tragic regardless.

I'll never understand how people say she 'slayed' these Are we watching the same footage?
She does appear to be a bit more fluid than she has since, but she was already lazy and not giving a **** then.

A Celine song?
Yeah before he died whenever something regarding pedophilia was the topic at hand, someone always mentioned Michael and made jokes about him. That kinda ended after he died though.
The whole Disney era with HSM, Camp Rock, Miley Cyrus/Hannah Montana, Cheetah Girls etc was amazing. It was THE best to be a kid during. >>
There will never be another period where stuff is being watched, discussed, and bought that much on Kid Networks. They were legit outselling every other artist period. It was an event.
I remember hearing Womanizer for the first time ever and being slayed. And then loving Myah's Candy Stranger demo and totally thinking it was Britney who was singing. Circus the song is what topped everything for me.
