RIP Michael Jackson

Just yesterday I was listening to his album and playing his old videogame on the Sega Genesis. [News Link]

Update: Found this cool picture of Michael Jackson with Michael Jordan and Kriss Kross.

    A true icon….

    The video game brought back memories for me too…Sega…Sonic, WWF RAW & After Burner…

  26. 26. Ramez | June 26th, 2009 at 8:10 pm

    watch MTV Arabia, they are playing all Mike’s videos

  27. 27. Pyyth4 | June 26th, 2009 at 9:05 pm

    R.I.P The one who is behind the result of most of the music available today.

  28. 28. george | June 26th, 2009 at 9:23 pm

    A shocker indeed. But we did keep hearing news about his face caving in, his lungs giving out and he even had a cancer check up, his skin whitening debacle.His obsession with getting ‘white’ skin was all too (in)famous, his child molestation charges. Once a very rich man, he died almost in debt. The lives of the rich and famous are strange indeed. Respect!

  29. 29. M | June 26th, 2009 at 10:32 pm

    I was very sad when I heard the news. He had a rough life. I was hoping Jermine (his older bro) convinced him to convert to Islam. I really hope he did convert! So we can say Allah yir7mah :S

  30. 30. M | June 26th, 2009 at 10:33 pm

    or else we can’t….

  31. 31. Linda | June 26th, 2009 at 11:29 pm

    you cant say allah yir7amah to someone who isnt muslim?
    so people who arent muslim and die dont deserve to be told these words?

  32. 32. Ba3ks | June 27th, 2009 at 12:08 am

    @Linda: No, since Allah will not give mercy to non-muslims even if they are good. Since “Allah Yir7ama” means May god have mercy on him its like a prayer from muslims to allah to forgive their brother muslim and let him go to heaven.

  33. 33. ohyeah | June 27th, 2009 at 12:51 am

    omg…..the game!!!!!! its like 15 years ago!

  34. 34. flux | June 27th, 2009 at 1:04 am

    @Ba3ks
    then why did Allah created him in the first place?!
    Lets not forget that he “Allah” swt is the most forgiving and most merciful of all.

    @Linda
    Allah yur7uma is similar to May God have mercy on your soul. When anyone – or anything- dies, their soul is at the mercy of God or Allah’s hands.

  35. 35. Ali | June 27th, 2009 at 1:09 am

    According to the biography i recently read Michael planned to release 100 songs after his death to support his children.
    Sure, this is good news but it wont be the same not having the king of pop around.

  36. 36. flux | June 27th, 2009 at 1:10 am

    besides that, MJ did a lot of good things. Lets not forget all the charity work that he did and he was very big on philanthropy.

    whatever he did in his personal life is his business. I am sure that we all have had to face a few demons of our own.

  37. 37. kyx | June 27th, 2009 at 10:12 am

    @ Flux: “whatever he did in his personal life is his business. I am sure that we all have had to face a few demons of our own.”

    Well said.

  38. 38. wi-fi | June 27th, 2009 at 10:32 am

    Then why Jackson`s brother at the end of the press confress said may allah be with you ?

    he could say may god ..

  39. 39. gargoyle | June 27th, 2009 at 10:52 am

    he may have converted to islam so god will have mercy, he did help alot of people in his life.

    الراحمون يرحمهم الرحمن
    فأدخلوا السرور على المساكين بالبر والإحسان ، لعل الله أن يرحم الجميع

  40. 40. Linda | June 27th, 2009 at 1:57 pm

    ok, but how God judges him is up to Him, by sayin may God have mercy on his soul, Im wishing someone who passed away something good. what happens is obviously not in our hands..

    lets say a very “corrupt”, or very “sinful” muslim passes, I can say allah yir7ama to him?

    my point is, these words are said with good intention on a person who passed away.

  41. 41. Na9er | June 27th, 2009 at 9:55 pm

    The picture with Michael Jordon and Kriss Kross was when they were making the video for the song Jam.

    RIP MJ.

    MJ is gone but his music and the legacy will live on..

  44. 44. EliasOz | July 1st, 2009 at 3:37 pm

    Hmmm, can’t say I feel particularly sad since I’ve long moved on from MJ and pop music in general. It is a shame though. My first memories of music are of MJ songs. I would have been more affected if this was one of the artists I admire that is currently still making great music. But oh well. At least he got to make some great music.
