Shut up oga, even in death Cristiano Ronaldo will earn more than that, when you are loved by many then expect many marketers out there to rack up a lot of bucks from your success. The recognition Micael got then is what we are witnessing with Ronaldo. Even my phone auto correct me when I spell ronaldo wrongly.
Don't be stupid, you Indomie generation 'Shaku Shaku' miscreant. I beg you for your own sake. DO NOT BE STUPID.

Only a stupid creature would compare Ronaldo to Michael Jackson. For the sake of your unborn children and descendents, DO NOT BE STUPID!

He is talking about their earning potential.

The difference is that musicians create intellectual property which allows them to earn money even when not active. When was the last time Dolly Parton released a song? Yet she makes $50 million on average very year from her catalogue.

In addition, there are two types of income: (1) Earned Income and (2) Residual Income.

Footballers income type falls under (1) -- earnings via pay cheques, which ceases when they stop playing football.

Musicians income type falls under (2) -- earnings from royalties, which continues even after they stop singing, and also when they are dead.

Unless what I am yet to find out. I never heard RKelly referring to himself as the king � of pop. He has always said he is the king of RnB in which he's 100% right. That's unarguably true. King � Kellz

Make good music... relevant for years to come...you nor your music nor the income will never die. Michael Jackson.... Bob Marley.... music relevant and appealing to generationss. Blast a MJ song...Beat It...a Bob Marley song...No Woman No Cry...from decades ago...heads would be bopping.....no one shouting in disgust to shut it off...but play a Davido song from 2 years ago.....let me shut up...

he who fights and runs away live to fight another day!

This is what i am talking about. Later some folks would be comparing sportsmen with musicians. The work of musicians live on for many years, but it's barely so with footballers and other sportsmen. MUSIC RULES!

Modified:
Some of you guys surprised should take several chill pills. If you think sport pays more post humously, Google is your friend. Bob Marley, Tupac, Elvis Presley, McCartney etc are all there to clear your doubts.

Paul McCartney isn't dead....

Good that you said close. Usher still does not have the smoothness, seamlessness and seeming effortlessness of MJ.

MJ combined supreme talent, hard work and perfection. There will be many good ones to come. But none will be a trailblazer, pioneer and barrier breaker like MJ. I saw MJ in a world tour over 20 years ago. He was very unique.
apt! He was my best as a kid... Dude is extraordinary

You're probably older than me, but I'm so happy to be born in that 'bridge' generation known as the 80s... To witness phenomena like Michael Jackson, Mandela, Larry King, Oprah, Mike Tyson, Mike Jordan, Diana, John Paul II, etc..at their prime, in flesh in the present tense. I even regret missing the 70s, but at least I smelt it and actively relived it.

These Shaku Shaku children of nowadays don't know what they missed. That's why they run their mouths anyhow.

He balled in life, he is balling in death. I remember Steve Harvey say in a standup gig that MJ had Giraffe money, while average celebrities can't have two dogs because one was already tied at the yard.

Michael was a blend of talent, determination, hard work and dedication to his craft. He topped that by being a perfectionist. Yearly the establishment tries to rubbish his memories with bad propaganda but those who truly love him know he can't be held down even in death.
He was the best there ever was and will be, no one comes close. I met Marlon once and had a long chat with him and I will never forget when he looked me in the face and said... 'Pure musical entertaimment died when Michael died'
