time michael jacksonTIME Magazine rarely comes out with a Special Commemorative Edition but with the untimely death of a music icon such as Michael Jackson, it has no choice but to come up with a worthy tribute.

Due out later this week, the TIME special edition feature the King of Pop, Michael Jackson, on the cover and tackles a wide array of issues inside. For one, it provides an in-depth look at the circumstances surrounding his death and what may have led to this tragedy. Of course, a King of Pop tribute would not be complete without looking into the
music of Michael, from the time he was part of the Jackson 5 to his solo career, and the massive contribution this has brought to popular music.

The last time the magazine came out with a special edition in between weekly issues was in the days following 9/11. The human tragedy called for it. Now, though only one person has died compared to the thousands who lost their lives in the terrorist attacks, the effect is seemingly the same.
