When the public first heard about Tito’s sudden death, it was initially reported that The Jackson 5 icon had died while driving back from New Mexico to Oklahoma.
At this time, his cause of death, as is the case now, had not been listed. However, a longtime family friend and former manager of the Jacksons named Steve Manning shared how he believes Tito passed due to a heart attack.

They wrote, “We are shocked, saddened and heartbroken. Our father was an incredible man who cared about everyone and their well-being. Some of you may know him as Tito Jackson from the legendary Jackson 5, some may know him as ‘Coach Tito’ or some know him as ‘Poppa T.’ Nevertheless, he will be missed tremendously.”

Aside from being a doting dad, Tito, who was married to Dee Dee Jackson, remained a fierce advocate for his brother Michael Jackson‘s legacy. Before he died, Tito spoke about how every time he stepped on stage, he felt Michael’s presence and often saw his smile reflected in children’s faces.

Even more than a decade after Michael’s passing, Tito continued to feel his loss deeply. In August 2024, he said, “The world was not kind to Michael at all. I don’t know why. I would always say if we didn’t have him, we sure would miss him. His death was such a major tragedy.”

Tito, who adored Michael, added, “The world definitely missed out on a lot of goodness from him, because he wasn’t just a musician or an artist, he was a loving person. He loved to give.” When it came to celebrating his brother, Tito often encouraged fans to come together and enjoy music.

He firmly believed his late brother still reigned as the King of Pop, as Michael’s timeless music still ensures the endurance of his legacy to this day. Tito was confident that Michael’s influence would remain immortal and would continue to inspire generations.

Like Michael, Tito, who was also an actor and producer, was dedicated to his craft. He had no intention of leaving the stage while he was still alive, noting, “I plan to be like BB King – play music until I die. Like Frank Sinatra or Sammy Davis Jr or Dean Martin. It’s fun, it’s peace of mind, it’s pleasure. I think, for an artist, music extends their lives.”

Tito always emphasized the love and positivity that flowed through his music, distancing it from negative themes like profanity or disrespect. He believed music could uplift and inspire, and he consistently supported projects created by his family, embodying these values in his work and presence.

“Before our show in Munich, my brothers Jackie, Marlon, and I, visited the beautiful memorial dedicated to our beloved brother, Michael Jackson. We’re deeply grateful for this special place that honors not only his memory but also our shared legacy. Thank you for keeping his spirit alive,” captioned Tito alongside the picture.

The late Indiana native, who was born on October 15, 1953, forged an incredible career during his lifetime. According to Tito’s biography on the Jacksons website, as the third eldest of the Jackson siblings, he was often credited for the start of the extremely popular band he performed in with his brothers.

While he was well-known for being the guitarist of The Jackson 5, he also used his low voice to compliment his brothers’ falsetto notes.

Before the start of The Jackson 5, Tito’s musical talents were first recognized by his late father, Joseph (Joe) Jackson, when he was just eight years old.
One day, Joseph, from whom Tito said he inherited his talents, discovered a broken string on his guitar, which eventually led him to figure out that his then-eight-year-old son had been playing it every day.

After asking Tito to play the guitar for him, Joseph, who used to be the lead in his blues band “The Falcons,” found himself impressed by his son’s talents.
The late Jackson patriarch was also impressed by the vocal abilities of his other sons, Jermaine and Jackie, and as a result, began envisioning a musical group career for them.

By the time 1967 rolled around, Tito, Jermaine, Jackie, Marlon, and Michael became known as The Jackson 5. Outside of the beloved music group, Tito also worked on his own projects.

In 2016, Tito’s first solo “Get It Baby,” made its way onto the Billboard charts, which made him the ninth and final Jackson sibling to have a solo single on the charts. His victory was followed by the release of more singles and his debut album “Tito Time.”
Three years ago (2021), Tito released his second album “Under Your Spell” — a body of work that featured an array of talented artists.Share
