RIP to the greatest pop legend of the world.
I actually had to read a couple websites before I believed it was true after one of my colleagues had mentioned it to me. Crazy week it has been in the states and in the news. My parents and then me and my brother grew up listening to his music and some of my all time favorite songs are by MJ. I will be listening to him on the radio for the next couple days. I hope he is finally at peace and we have truly lost a great pop icon not just the states but around the world. He may have been one eccentric person but he was an amazing artist and will be greatly missed
RIP Michael Jackson and may your music and message live on.
It was a sad day yesterday to hear about all the deaths especially M.J.’s. R.I.P. Great icon of music and will always be remembered. I’m still saddened even though I was devastated yesterday. Thanks Kbites for posting about this.
Rest In Peace Michael Jackson.
It doesn’t seem real to me yet. It hasn’t hit me. It was so sudden, out of the blue. Has been a horrible day today… with all the deaths today. May he rest in the peace. He’ll always be a legend, the King of Pop, the amazing dancer, an icon in all of our hearts.

I was waiting for someone to post this! He truly was a influential artist!
RIP! Michael Jackson you split my heart into many peices when i found out around 6 today eastern time!
I wanted to see your concert! but now u’ve gone and i listened to your childhood song and read the lyrics and it brought me to tears!!
Right now i’m listening to the earth song and i’m taking in how caring you truly were!!
Rest in Peace King of Pop! Michael Jackson!
i cant believe that he passed away
the King of Pop
may he rest in peace
Im still in shock, because MJ was just one of those people that people knew all around the world, and really, i dont think any of us thought he could actually die. I don’t know how to word it right.
He was a legend, may he rest in piece.
Exactly what my family said. He was one of those that you could never imagine actually dieing.
A dozen artists got their start from his inspiration.
R.I.P.
We WAS pop music.
sooo sad.
i wonder what Taemin feels right now…
It seems a little strange hearing about it this morning. It almost doesn’t feel real, but I think it will set in over the next few days.
Very sad.
im glad this site post this as atribute as well we’ve been trying trying to link other kpop site to post mj’s death but they are too selfish instead they posted some articles that are not really worth it..i dont know but MJ was considered to be a legend already..thanks kbites you have agood heart..
i hope he can accept with allah in there
is he muslim?
First time posting here.
It’s such sad news to know that a great legend like Michael Jackson passed away.
This sudden news comes to me like Heath Ledger when he passed away a year ago.
He will forever be a hero, a legend and a great mentor to all of us. His music will forever inspire all of us and future generations.
R.I.P. the King of Pop
I don’t imagine there will ever be another Michael Jackson. He contributed so much to music and inspired so many people. May he rest in peace.
rip mj, you’ll always be a legend!~
from ‘bad’ to causing a total ‘thriller’ to the world with many hits, you’ll always be remembered as, and always, the king of pop!
Wow, that’s some heavy feeling.
Man, RIP to him.
RIP!
RIP MJ
