Michael Jackson named Artist Of The Decade in the That Grape Juice poll

Michael Jackson was named Artist Of The Decade in the That Grape Juice poll as the artist who made the most impact on Pop Culture from the years 2000- 2012, with a grand total of 114,387 votes beating Britney Spears (62,516) to the top spot, thatgrapejuice.net reported.

Despite his last LP being released in 2001, his work is just as influential today as it was in the 90s and the 80s before them.

Because, from Britney Spears to Beyonce, Usher to Justin Timberlake, there is no denying the impact Michael made on many budding icons and their material.

Serving as the vocal blueprint for Timberlake‘s Justified in 2002 and influencing GaGa‘s Born This Way in 2010, Jackson’s work continues to inspire, breathing life back into dance by way of Cirque Du Soleil‘s Michael Jackson THE IMMORTAL World Tour and saving lives worldwide with the Heal The World Foundation.
