We are deeply saddened to share that Tito Jackson, the legendary guitarist and vocalist of the Jackson 5, has passed away at the age of 70. Tito, along with his brothers Jackie, Jermaine, Randy, Marlon, and Michael, captured the hearts of millions with timeless hits like “ABC” and “I’ll Be There.”

His family shared the heartbreaking news via Instagram, revealing that Tito passed away from a heart attack while traveling from New Mexico to Oklahoma.

The Jackson 5’s legacy, with Tito at its core, shaped the music landscape and paved the way for Michael Jackson’s historic solo career. Tito’s contributions to music and his vibrant spirit will be remembered and cherished forever. 🕊️

Our thoughts are with his family and loved ones during this difficult time. Rest in peace, Tito. 🌟
