Caption : “I can’t answer whether or not I like being famous, but I do love achieving goals. I love not only reaching a mark I’ve set for myself but exceeding it. I think it’s so important to set goals for yourself. It gives you an idea of where you want to go and how you want to get there. If you don’t aim for something, you’ll never know whether you could have hit the mark.” – Michael Jackson

Caption : The New York Post recalls the impact of Michael’s 1993 Super Bowl performance: “Without a doubt, Jackson’s set — which kicked off with ‘Jam’ and then went into ‘Billie Jean,’ ‘Black or White’ and ‘We Are the World’ before finishing with ‘Heal the World’ — turned the Super Bowl halftime show into its own blockbuster event, marking the first time that ratings increased from the game’s first half to its second half as viewers watched worldwide.”

Caption : In 1979, President Jimmy Carter designated June as Black Music Month which makes it an appropriate time to especially honor Tina Turner, whose recent passing was an immeasurable loss. Tina’s personal story was one of triumph. Her career spanning more than half a century was an amazing musical journey of accomplishments and contributions, including when she joined Michael and 44 other star vocalists on USA for Africa’s “We Are the World” charity single. #BlackMusicMonth

Caption : Some Monday motivation from Michael: “In the end, the most important thing is to be true to yourself and those you love and work hard. I mean, work like there’s no tomorrow. Train. Strive. I mean, really train and cultivate your talent to the highest degree. Be the best at what you do. Get to know more about your field than anybody alive. Use the tools of your trade, if it’s books or a floor to dance on or a body of water to swim in. Whatever it is, it’s yours. That’s what I’ve always tried to remember.”
