You know, something I read this morning struck me when I saw this question.
ReplyDeleteI am pasting it verbatim:
Break out. Jackson was a multidimensional entertainer. His expert dancing could be showcased via the new medium of music videos. MTV and Jackson rose in tandem when MTV premiered the Jackson video "Thriller" in 1982 from the album of the same name. The album went on to sell over 100 million copies.
See the opportunity he got. MJ was a fabulous dancer but without the rise of MTV at about the same time, his talent would not have been exposed to the world. And because it could be showcased, he became a trendsetter in a dance form the world had not seen till then...
