This is definitely a long way from the humble beginnings in Gary, Indiana. It’s been six years since Michael Jackson passed and his name is finally taking a break from the headlines. However, Michael Jackson is soon to be back all over the news.

Fortunately, Michael Jackson will be all over the news for a good reason, for once. No controversy, no drama, Michael Jackson does have the highest selling album of all-time, of course. Finally, he is getting a little recognition for that.

Michael Jackson put a lot of work in before and after Thriller, but the world knows him best for this album. Going diamond, 10 million records sold, during its actual time, Thriller continued selling in the following thirty three years. Now, the album has made music history, again, as it is up to 30 million copies sold, as in 30X platinum, as in triple diamond.
