I never mention Prince as a diss to MJ. They're both legends & I said M.J. had more popularity. I just talk about the artist I feel is the G.O.A.T. My opinion, Prince.
Bobby was a big American star, mainly in the black community for his music, while his bad boy persona gave him notoriety in the pop world, but he was no where near even possibly competing at mike's level. bobby b was never going to big enough to perform in a post communism romania nor sidetrack primetime TV to debut music videos ( i still remember "remember the time" debuting like on Fox). bobby had the potential to have a longer career, that's about it, but we know all the things that shortened it
whitney was big, but the coli always forgets madonna, she's likely the next biggest solo star there is/was after mike (edit: i also gotta mention elton john...people love that dude lol)
that part...people love to over look her when she's the only other woman aside from madonna sitting at 250M+ records sold
as i said it was a different era
i agree, but that's artists faults. one thing i like about Bey and Jay is they kept that old model of being elusive. it's a clown show watching the rest of these celebs play out they lives on social media - DM fails, rants, beefing with each other, drug use, public breakups, dikk/p*ssy pics and sex tapes, text convos put on blast, controversial views, etc...people have way more reason to not personally like artists than in the past and that also limits reach
jigga & bey do stay low but even they get a little smut on their image
sammy davisIt amazes me that there is a whole new generation of adults that has no idea how big Michael Jackson was
they have nothing to compare it to, how huge this man was and how his music spanned over 4 decades, and the impact he had on popular culture
this man had white folks passing out at his concerts, hard core killers bursting out in tears when they saw him
I was leaving a festival a few years ago where Janet performed, and she had done the song she made with Michael, Scream. Breh, there was some Chick there oblivious to who MJ was. She knew him mostly for that Drake song where he sampled him, and that was it. I was both shocked and appalled, but mostly shocked
