this event solidified mj as a dancer. not just a singer who could do coreography but a dancer in his own right. it exposed a personal flare about him which people could then also attribute to his music and combine them to define a true wunderkid which would be the boost needed to raise him to the king of pop status.

the unfortunate downside to this is that it helped push the music to the backseat. after this event everything that mj did had to be an event in which music while playing a major role was not the sum objective. specifically in the live arena he no longer made an effort to bring the realness of his musical performance to the forefront but wanted each performance to be has vivid as the videos.
