"Although his latest studio album was released in 2001, his work is just as influential today as it was in the 1980s and 1990s. He has influenced many artists—from Britney Spears to Beyoncé, from Usher to Justin Timberlake.

Even after his death, he continues to inspire artists. With his Immortal tour, Cirque du Soleil has returned him to the dance floor, and through his charity organization ‘Heal The World,’ he is still busy saving people’s lives."
