Michael Jackson "Dangerous" is every bit as good as 'Thriller', 'Off the Wall', & 'Bad'

[Mr. Foxx Foxx]

Great album, and nothing wrong with having it as one of your favorites, but Thriller is a class of it own.

Every song a classic

Dangerous > Bad

Dangerous > Bad

I’ll give him “Smooth Criminal” & “Man in the Mirror”. Those are untouchable

But Dangerous got it on everything else

What are tracks on Dangerous that’s at least comparable to Smooth Criminal or Man in the Mirror?

Listening to ‘She Drives Me Wild’ rn

Woo! Teddy Riley outdone himself

This version of Jam

 

[Devil Plisken…CMS]

Nope but it had some stuff

 

[OmegaK2099]

He ended up giving us variations of this album for the rest of his career. People forget how good his music and singing was and his basic soul dancing. He needed a break to gather himself like maybe do smaller shows and projects. Maybe an MTV unplugged special held at the Apollo where he focuses on his earlier sound. But you know he'd never go for it because he was always trying to outdo himself on everything. But I feel he could have found himself again performing with the precise timing of a live band like Prince or James Brown instead of getting caught up in magic and a bunch of shyt being triggered on a keyboard.

Bad shouldn’t even be up there with Off The Wall or Thriller. On top of that Dangerous is better than Bad anyways.

Man I had that joint on repeat a while ago. It just popped up in my head one day and I had to listen to it

Bad is prime Michael Jackson at his peak as a performer and star. Terrible take.
