He's been marred by those molestation rumors (and those settlements and trial and fucking bizarre lifestyle reports didn't help), which unfortunately tars the fact that Jackson in the 80s with OFF THE WALL and THRILLER was....well, the King of Pop?
A giant in recording sales and universal appeal of which one could only compare to the Beatles, which MJ famously made a fortune from buying up the Northern Songs catalogue after his then-buddy Paul McCartney advised him to own other people's songs...:D
So yeah if this is true, its unfortunate for MJ the performer. I was kinda hoping he would go out with at least one last respectable song or album or something decent. Oh well.
