Will there ever be an entertainer on Michael Jackson's level?

[AllHolosEve]

It's one thing to prefer Prince (totally ain't mad at it) but

Breh when I get get in my phases about this girl I love. I listen to Alicia Keys, not Michael.

I'm not a fan. I don't like thriller. 80s baby

I love Amerie "This one thing"
Alicia Keys
"Sure looks good to me"
"Go ahead"
"Tell me something"
"I need you"

Michael "The way you make me feel" is my favorite. Love it.
I don't even like "Purple Rain" I like "Let's go crazy" "Take me with you" & "I would die for you" are my favorite

To me personally "As I Am" is better than any M.J. shyt.

Is Obama on MJ level famewise?

I think so but some disagree.

 

[Neo. The Only. The One.]

Wow this is my first time back in this thread since I made it

Did I get a plat?

Prince is one of the few artist that if they prefer him over MJ, I couldn't argue against it.

That being said, MJ is the G O A T hands down in my opinion.

I was referring to him saying he'll take Alicia Keys over MJ

 

[CreepyMcCreeperson]

The closest celebrities to MJ famous right now are movie stars, people like tom cruise, sam jackson, will smith etc etc...in the music world it ain't happening because the game is too spread out

Your point is valid, and accurate, but Samuel L Jackson isn’t going to cause mass hysteria at the mall.

Even Angelina Jolie can go out, and people notice, but they aren’t going crazy, and most people only notice because she has the very distinct kids.

Even Brad Pitt can walk down the street unnoticed, but mostly because he lets a beard grow in, and looks disheveled when he’s not working.

MJ had to wear disguises in public. But he was also famous since he was a child. Will Smith, and Tom Cruise weren’t famous at 13.

No because people won't allow it. There will always be people looking to shyt on the next big thing when their personal favorites are threatened

 

[K.O.N.Y]

The Beatles are and were definitely bigger they're the best selling act ever for a reason.

compare four people to one person brehs

well notice I said the closest, nobody will cause that type of hysteria again

but I remember when will smith snuck in the theater and recorded himself leaving after "The Karate Kid" premiere and he caused pandamonium

also nobody has mentioned EMINEM yet...i think he would make people go crazy if he were walking through a mall too, he's pretty damn famous.

Brehs really talking about Chris Brown and Beyoncé

 

[KodeBlue]

compare four people to one person brehs

The man is putting out false information as well. Nobody has sold more albums than MJ.

 

[ISO]

If I’m making a modern day Mike I’d go with this formula take Weeknd vocals and reclusive nature then add Chris Brown dancing and showmanship and then throw in Lil Uzi’s childlike charm and weirdness

 

[Suzie]

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.

& Not mentioned with Beatles & others is a lie.

But why mention Prince in this thread since he’s obv not in the running for the topic of conversation?

 

[Suzie]

if we're talking about celebrity status Obama has almost reached his level.
I'm not talking about his politics just his notoriety

Politicians are in a different category imo

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)

I’m sure we’re primarily discussing black artist. Most people would acknowledge that Madonna is up there success and fame wise

the talent would get muddied up folks would be more occupied with madonna being a hoe & all of whitneys drug.fiend drama

there is way less awe when you know the truth about artist as regular ain't shyte human beings

The tabloid media that’s present today stated in MJs era. Actually artist today have a much better control of their image than Whitney & MJ did. The tabloids pretty much ruined them.
