Michael Jackson in the 1992 Dangerous World Tour.

American entertainer Michael Jackson Called the "King Of Pop" considered as one of the most successful and influential entertainers of all time. For much of Jackson's career, he had an unparalleled influence all over the world through his musical, dance, fashion, and humanitarian contributions.

As child music prodigie Jackson joined his older siblings in the Jackson 5 at age five. In the early 1980s, Jackson became a dominant figure in popular culture and the first African American entertainer to have a strong crossover fan base on Music Television (MTV). His music videos, including those of "Beat It", "Billie Jean", and "Thriller" from his 1982 album Thriller, are credited with breaking racial barriers and transforming the medium into an art form and promotional tool. The popularity of these videos helped bring the television channel MTV to fame.

On June 28, 2009 Baltimore Sun article titled "7 Ways Michael Jackson Changed The World", Jill Rosen wrote that Jackson's legacy was "as enduring as it is multi-faceted", influencing fields including sound, dance, fashion, music videos and celebrity. On December 19, 2014, the British Council of Cultural Relations named Jackson's life one of the 80 most important cultural moments that shaped the world. In 2010, two university librarians found that Jackson's influence extended to academia, with references to Jackson in reports concerning music, popular culture, chemistry and an array of other topics.

Cultural and social impact

Ben Beaumont-Thomas the music editor of the guardian stated that Jackson ushered in a global culture and wrote "We'll get to the music and dance, but perhaps his most astonishing achievement is his fame: he was the subject of global adulation, even in areas previously untouched by Western pop culture. Tony Sclafani from msnbc statd that "there was a time when Jackson was thought of primarily as a groundbreaking artist, not a celebrity oddball. That time was 1983, when Jackson’s omnipresence on the pop charts was revolutionary because no African-American artist had ever achieved thathigh a level of success. Jackson earned his pop icon status by creating music that transcended genres; he also redefined the roles of music videos and dancing in popular music".

In United States

In 2015 Rolling Stone article titled "Michael Jackson: Black Superhero", Touré wrote:

Many blacks now compare Michael with Barack Obama – perhaps the highest possible compliment in black America. Not only are they both integrationists and racial harmonists, but they both were determined to reach the top while refusing to let race hold them back. "There are so many components of why Barack Obama is president" says Diddy ,"and Michael Jackson is one of them. He started a change in the perception of the African-American male on a worldwide level: his strength, always putting himself in a powerposition, being seen as a hero." Sharpton echoes the point. "Way before Tiger Woods or Barack Obama, Michael made black people go pop-culture global" he says. "You had people in France, South America and Iowa comfortable with their kids imitating a black kid from Gary, Indiana. And when some of those people in Iowa grew, they were comfortable with voting for Barack Obama because they got comfortable imitating a black kid named Michael Jackson when they were young. Obama is a phenomenon, but he's the result of a process that Michael helped America graduate to.
