Duke Ellington,Miles Davis, Fats Waller, George Gershwin are 4 names to get you started. Not 'classical' music, but great music from all of these
American composers.
We also have composers that write great music for movies, like James Horner and John Williams.

I certainly do not pretend to be Michael Jackson's bibliographer... But most of all, Michael Jackson was the "star" not because of its popularity, but because of his talent. Are you sure that you have everything in order with the analysis of causal connection? Actually it turns out that Michael Jackson who simply made ​​a monster. You have no such suspicions? Do not you think that people who accused Michael Jackson of mental illness, they were just interested in the occupation of his financial condition? You do not have any suspicions that whites want to discredit "black star" just because he was born black?

Plus, a whole bunch of white stars, especially child stars, have fallen victim to the exploitation of their wealth. Sadly, child stars are more often exploited by their own parents.
