Who would you say is the Michael Jackson of white people?

[RhodyRum]

Btw, the answer to OP's question is none other than Duane. Yes, that Duane. The one and only:

 

[King Poetic]

Don’t know about in this day and age

But it was like Elvis or groups like Led Zeppelin or ac/dc

Can we get some respect on juice name. For writing the primetime debut of a rap video on nbc tho. Where will smith is given rakim level props. After juice ramped and made will smith.
a better vocal quality and lyric voice over artist.

Sohh if juice made will smith sound like rakim. Then why is juice not regarded.
by casuals as being on rakim level. while also being the actual adolescsnt rapper.
who created rap being on primetime radio.
in a top urban intellectual space and market in cali as well.

Might i add. Juice had A broken jaw. when this feat was acoomplished as well.
Not to mention being the catalsyst for what would become.
rap's largest mainstream gateway.
All done off rhe top of the head with no writtens as well. While rakim and any other legend of lore. All had to write their rhymes. Yet juice written rhymes.
debuted and premiered as a gateway launch.
for a tv show and video on primetime on nbc tho.

I would say Elvis, but I don’t think Elvis appeals to the younger generation of white people.

 

[Killer Instinct]

Someone already mentioned it but I don't think a lot if people truly comprehend how popular MJ managed to become. Whats so incredible is that he did it decades before high speed internet or social media was ever a thing.

 

[Cladyclad]

Its Elvis

 

[Vandelay]

Stylistically or impact?

Stylistically: Justin Timberlake
Impact: Elvis
Realistic: No one

 

[Black Hans]

The Beatles if we're including the dead.

 

[MurderToCassette]

My 3 year old sleeps in his thriller jacket. I can't name a white celebrity as multi generational as MJ

My niece isn't even 2 and she's trying to imitate moves from the Thriller video that came out over 40 years before she was born. If that isn't influence

 

[JackRoss]

Obviously Elvis. I don't understand what was so special about him. Not dissing but his music was mid. Maybe in that time but even then it's not impressing.

 

[BunchePark]

Idk but I worked for event staff as a jitt and did Aerosmith and Bon Jovi concerts in like 2003-04

Them boys had them hoes loose and i mean LOOSE



But never forget Mike had people fainting with the ambulance on standby
never seen anything like that

 

[Dave24]

Elvis Presley

 

[Tribal Outkast]

Billy Joel

 

[Tribal Outkast]

He may be super famous in amerikkka, but when it comes to the world, there's no one who compares to Michael. And we're talking just fame alone, in terms of talent it's an landslide massacre

Elvis is the closest they've got and even then the mf just cosplayed black artists

Elvis was dead before I was born. I ain’t giving him no props
