50 is the new black

Random thought: Prince, Madonna and Michael Jackson all turn 50 this year. Shouldn't newspapers, magazines, record labels, somebody be planning some sort of, well, something?!

Think about it. Each one has moved so many mountains, and not just musically. Prince enlightened the public and other artists about the dangers of a lot of the high-dollar record deals, not to mention teaching everyone that his name is Prince (then TAFKAP), and he is funky. Madonna ushered in a new era of female pop superstar, showing everyone how to change with the times and remain relevant (I know, I know ... discuss on your own). Michael, well, whatever you think of the King of Pop now, he revolutionized music, dance, videos, etc. Where is the love?!

It seems that youth brings the creative spark that fades with age. So many great artists have contributed the inspiration from their anabolic, energized, fresh blood dawns but their work fades as their cells regenerate bad copies in middle age. Fortunately, there are inspiring artists like Miles Davis who continued to grow into their advancing years. Sometimes life surprises with these souls who can still bring the fire from Olympus. The creative spark itself is eternal.
