Happy Birthday to the King of Pop

Today is the birthday of the other MJ, the King of Pop himself, Michael Jackson. Although the star’s light is no longer shining, his music, movies and life still live on through millions of people influenced by the entertainment icon. Michael Jackson was one of the first non-athletes to ever make a serious impact on the sneaker culture, paving the way for artists like Kanye West.
