Best Answer

He was the best singer, so the group decided to make him the lead so their music would sound as good as possible.

Answer:

Michael Jackson was an adorable child who could dance, and had a child's high pitched voice.

Joe Jackson decided he could use those things to promote the group. Also, at the time the Jackson 5 came out, there were a lot of Brother/Sister groups like the Carpenters, Donnie and Marie, etc. Having a cute kid out front set them apart from the rest.

He joined the band at 5 years old and the band was originally Tito, Jackie and Randy, Joe (the father) thought Michael and Marlon were to young to join until Michael performed at a talent show, Joe then made him the lead.

He wasn't forced to be part of the Jackson 5. Michael lived and breathed music- everything he did involved music. It was Michael's choice and he was by no means forced into the music business.
