Numbero uno for us would definitely be Andy Warhol's painting of Michael. If the immortal Andy Warhol immortalizes you then you are truly immortal.

Jeff Koons sculpture “Michael Jackson and Bubbles” sits at the Broad Contemporary Art Museum at the LA County Museum of Art.

The King of Pop was officially knighted in this triptych by David Nordhal.

This gold painted plaster portrait bust of Michael was set to be auctioned off in April until the gloved one via Bey proclaimed it Irreplaceable.

These Michael Jackson dolls were the ish and the urine when we were growing up and are fetching top dollar right now on Ebay.

If you remember Michael's movie Moonwalker, then you'll remember this robot head.

And no commemorative of Michael Jackson art would be complete without his album art. This is one of my favorites from his 1991 Dangerous album.

We decided to do this because ironically it is easy to immortalize someone once they've proven their mortality, as proven by the tears this week of those who barely considered him last week. Not that we're knocking that, I'm even sure Michael would chalk it up to “Human Nature”. But we just wanted to salute the efforts of those who'd already immortalized him when it seemed like he would never die. Because of their art, and his legacy and music, he will never truly leave us.

Skyzoo is one of my favorite new artist emerging for various reasons.

1. He's Brooklyn all day.

2. More specifically he's Bed-Stuy BK all day (theres a difference….DUMBO don't count)

3. Dude is actually one of the few MC's who actually is as ill as he says he is.

4. He's L&D Fam! 

I guess I could come up with some even greater reasons if I put the time to it, but his music will suffice. Give it a listen and support with a download!
