Maureen Reillette "Rebbie" Jackson was born on May 29, 1950, in Gary, Indiana, United States. She is the eldest of ten children born to Joseph Walter Jackson and Katherine Esther Jackson. Rebbie spent her childhood in a bustling household and often helped care for her younger siblings. She attended Theodore Roosevelt High School in Gary and graduated in 1968.
Rebbie Jackson and her siblings developed an interest in music from an early age, strongly influenced by their musical household. In 1974, the Jackson family began performing regularly in Las Vegas, which helped strengthen their presence in the entertainment industry. Rebbie’s early exposure to live shows and musical showcases played a foundational role in her later solo career.
In 1976, Rebbie made her television debut alongside her family on the variety series The Jacksons. The show, one of the first to star an African-American family, received widespread recognition and marked a turning point in Rebbie’s career. It encouraged her to pursue music more seriously, and she began working as a vocalist, contributing background vocals and collaborations with artists such as Sonny Bono and The Emotions.
Rebbie launched her solo career in 1984 with the release of her debut album Centipede. Though the album achieved moderate commercial success, its standout track, also titled "Centipede," was written and produced by her brother Michael Jackson and became her biggest hit. The single reached No. 4 on the Billboard R&B chart and was certified gold, establishing her presence as a solo artist.
Following the momentum of her debut, Rebbie released her second album, Reaction, in 1986. The album experienced modest success, with the title track garnering attention on R&B radio stations. Her third album, R U Tuff Enuff, was released in 1988 and continued in a similar vein. The album’s track "Plaything" became a minor hit, and the title song also charted on the Billboard R&B singles chart.
After a decade-long hiatus from the recording industry, Rebbie returned to music in 1998 with the album Yours Faithfully, released under MJJ Music, the record label owned by her brother Michael Jackson. While the album did not achieve widespread commercial acclaim, its title track received moderate radio play and reached the Billboard R&B chart. This marked her continued passion for music well into her career.
In recent years, Rebbie Jackson has continued to perform at various venues across the United States. She has also been reported to be working on new music, although no confirmed album release has followed since Yours Faithfully.
Rebbie married her childhood sweetheart, Nathaniel Brown, in 1968. The couple had three children: Stacee, Yashi, and Austin Brown. Austin has followed in the family tradition, carving out a music career of his own. Nathaniel Brown passed away in 2013 following a battle with cancer.
While there have been persistent rumors suggesting that Rebbie raised her sister Janet Jackson's alleged daughter, Renee, and a boy named Omar, these reports have never been substantiated and remain unconfirmed.
Through her contributions as a singer and performer, Rebbie Jackson holds a respected place in the Jackson family legacy. Despite not achieving the international stardom of some of her siblings, she has carved out a distinct identity in the entertainment industry. According to public sources, her estimated net worth is approximately $2.5 million.
