I love Michael Jackson music, I grew up listening to his stuff, so I feel it is part of my life.
We don't know if he is guilty or not. He is a victim of child abuse himself. A lot of performers have troubled lives in many forms, going back to the age of time, so trying to listen to only music from performers who are totally innocent of anything remotely wrong, would find yourself not listening to much. Plus, you don't know the pasts and presents of any musicans unless you know them personally, and that goes for all music catagories.
I say listen to what you are comfortable with. Some of the best creative people have had pain in their lives and are not perfect.
