Michael Jackson: The '90s and Beyond

In the '80s, Michael Jackson became the most innovative and commercially successful pop star in the world. The ‘90s and '00s were odd and troubled decades for Jackson—in many ways—but he continued to record ambitious hits, embracing fresh styles like new jack swing, house, and hip-hop. He died tragically in 2009 when he was just 50, but he left behind an astounding legacy as the King of Pop.
