So MJ did the Back Slide on Motown 25, not the Moonwalk?

[valet]

I was reading this book on Soul Train and they said that.



The dance at the beginning is the original moonwalk. Walking like you're on the moon.



MJ still the greatest though

"Backslide" is better. That guy doing the "moonwalk" look like his knees hurt.

Michael didn't dub it as the "moonwalk" the media did and the kid who taught it to him was a 16 year old soul train dancer. Michael actually performed the correct "moonwalk" in a number of concerts and performances during the Victory and Bad tours so he definitely made it his "own'

Artist today are trash, they don't put as nearly as much effort into live performances like MJ did. All it is now is lipsinging and twerking.

MJ lip synced Billie Jean on Motown 25, but I know what you mean.

As good of a performer Beyonce is, her "choreography" leaves much to be desired. Ciara is great, but she can't seem to catch a break. And Rihanna literally has not one ounce of talent. Can't sing or dance. She does absolutely nothing on stage.

I know he lip sang that performance. But all of his dance moves he put together on his own, no one came in and taught him how to dance to his own song. He did learn dance steps from people, but his energy and performance plan was mostly him.

Break dancers been doing the moon walk but MJ did invent the robot tho

In the 60s before the moon walk they would back slide..the boogaloo, the robot and poppers .. In the late 70s they brought the back slide to a whole new level with the moon walk

I love how nikkas act like MJ was the GOAT .

If the nikka didn't know how to dance he wouldn't have been famous.

On top of that, the nikka didn't even write any of his own songs.

proof?

I never said he was the Goat, but todays music is nothing like when MJ was dropping videos. It became an event to watch a MJ video on the day it drops. Remember the Time video was hyped to the GAWDS and it delivered.
