I don't know much about him.
But to me it always seemed as if he was destroyed by his father's obsession for success. From what I heard the Jackson kids had to be successful or they got beaten by their father. I think he took his first mental cracks there. Then came all the success that sometimes has the tendency to drive people nuts. Maybe all his weird behaviour (for example buying [building?] the Neverland Ranch, being close to kids, changing his face) was just a reaction to not having had a childhood himself and wanting to be someone else. Whether he was a Pedo was never proven. The moment a star is accused of such a thing they have to do everything to end those accusations as quickly as possible or their career is over no matter whether they get convicted or an innocent verdict. The parents of those kids knew that they would have good chances of grabbing millions of dollars, don't forget that.

He definitely has had a major impact on the music of the 80's.
