RIP Michael Jackson

The music world had a terrible lost today. Michael Jackson died this afternoon after suffering a cardiac arrest at his home in Los Angeles.

As you know, many artists including Justin Timberlake grew listening to Michael, and he was a great inspiration to them in their music careers. So they must be really devastated for loosing him.

Here is Justin’s statement about Michael Jackson’s death:

I can’t find the words right now to express how deeply saddened I am by Michael’s passing.  We have lost a genius and a true ambassador of not only Pop music but of all music.  He has been an inspiration to multiple generations and I will always cherish the moments I shared with him on stage and all of the things I learned about music from him and the time we spent together.  My heart goes out to his family and loved ones.

- Justin

Michael Jackson will be remembered by all of us as one of the greatest and most influential pop icons in the music industry.

Let’s have a moment of silence in his honor.

RIP King of Pop.
