It took a while for her to access stardom. Jackson had the help of her siblings, who rallied around her to make one or two contributions, and in no time, she released several tracks that were hit songs.

Her 1984 "Centipede" song was the first to become a hit. The singer's other albums include "Reaction," "RU Tuff Enuff," and "Yours Faithfully."

A decade ago, she shared her opinion about a tragedy that befell the Jackson family.
