The Legendary Jackson 5 Member Tito Jackson Passed Away at the Age of 70
One of the brothers that comprised the adored musical group the Jackson 5, Tito Jackson, passed away at the age of 70.
Tito was the third of nine Jackson children—a musical family whose hits are still cherished today—that included international superstars Michael and sister Janet.
“It’s with heavy hearts that we announce that our beloved father, Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Tito Jackson is no longer with us. We are shocked, saddened and heartbroken. Our father was an incredible man who cared about everyone and their well-being,” said in a statement his sons Taryll, Taj, and TJ.
The brothers Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, Marlon, and Michael made up the Jackson 5. The family group had multiple No. 1 songs in the 1970s, including “ABC,” “I Want You Back,” and “I’ll Be There.” They were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1997.
Under the direction of their father Joe Jackson, a steelworker and guitarist from Gary, Indiana, who provided for his wife and nine children, the Jackson 5 rose to become one of the biggest names in music. The family moved to California as their music careers took off.
