On August 31, 1987, Michael Jackson released his highly anticipated seventh studio album, “Bad.” The album quickly became a monumental success, skyrocketing to the top of the US Billboard 200 charts and securing the #1 spot in numerous other countries, including the UK, Canada, France, Italy, Germany, the Netherlands, Austria, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, New Zealand, and Japan.

“Bad” not only dominated the charts but also went on to sell over 35 million copies worldwide, further solidifying Michael Jackson’s status as the “King of Pop.” The album featured several hit singles, including the title track “Bad,” “The Way You Make Me Feel,” “Man in the Mirror,” and “Smooth Criminal,” many of which became timeless classics.

This day marks a significant moment in music history, as “Bad” continued to shape and influence the pop music landscape for years to come.
