Vintage Michael Jackson

Have you had your fill of all the never ending headline news about Michael Jackson yet? Well, don’t stop ’til you get enough! I’ve practically overdosed on all of the special reports, insider scoops, weepy tributes, and creepy $1.4 million memorials that have taken place since his death. Now, I’ve pressed the pause button on all the pondering pundits eager to give their thoughts on MJ’s life and his trying times. I say: Let the music speak for itself. Let the man rest in peace. And, thanks to writer Earl Ofari Hutchinson, while I walk down Nostrand Avenue toward the A train, listening to I Want You Back, I will ponder this.
