MJ might not have the highest number of musical awards or statistics, but in terms of overall musical personality and global impact, he is the greatest entertainer/artiste of all time.

In fact he is one of the greatest/ most popular names of all times as his personality transcends music.

In music, the other GOAT candidates are Frank Sinatra, Beatles, Elvis, Beyonce, Prince, Madonna and maybe Whitney. MJ trumps them all.

MJ is an era-defining personality like Caesar, Da Vinci, Newton, Edison, Ghandi, Ghengiz, Mohammed Ali etc.
Facts!!! 100%

Oga, lyrically, mj is nowhere near Michael stipes of R.E.M or Bono or anyone I mentioned there.

I have all Mike's albums and lyrics. They are ok but not top tier.



U mentioned Nas. Even many years back, a certain CNN analyst ranked Nas the greatest Lyricist of all time( of any genre).

If u like I can quote 50 Nas lyrics that will make u sit up and start listening to even other artists.
Hope u know Nas lyrics are being studied at Harvard by professors?

I know lyrics frm bands frm the 50s, 60s, 70s, etc to this era.
I know lyrics frm artists that topped charts in UK, America, Australia etc .
Rock, hip hop,blues, soul, bluegrass, indie pop etc.


But I tell u what, no one comes close to Nas.
Am talking about poetic lyrics that will make the great Shakespeare hide his face in utter disbelief.

Like I said, it's just my opinion tho
Lyrics, there are writers.

We're talking about artists.

Ability to make songs that have impact and convey emotions people can relate to.

How many people can relate to the songs of those guys you put up there?

How many people can relate to MJ songs?


Man in the Mirror is evergreen.

Heal the world is iconic


Clearly you don't know what an artist it.

An artist merges emotions with lyrics to make a soulful song. It's becomes a song when anyone can sing it, and it evokes emotions.


These people you mentioned are great at one thing, MJ is great at everything put together.

Like NAS now, he's a Shakespeare of lyrics. And that's just to it. But as simple as the lines in Heal the world is it still beat in message anything NAS can and has put out. That's what being an artist is.

Thank u. Ur assertion is a fair one.
But am inclining towards penmanship ( lyrics)
Those artists I mentioned write better than Michael. Far better.
Infact I'll rank Nas the greatest Lyricist of the last hundred years, of any music genre( CNN already crowned him that).


But if ur talking entertainment wise, I can put him in top 2 or make him the greatest.

Using metaphors don't make you a better lyricist. Neither does using triple entendres.

Simplicity is king.

How many lyrics of NAS can a layman understand?

How many lyrics of MJ can a layman understand?

That's your better artist right there. MJ.

He communicates messages and emotions with ease. MJ was pitch perfect. Hit high and low notes without autotune.


Blood on the dance floor for example. You listen, you know what's he's talking about.

Smooth Criminal. You listen, you get it.

You come to NAS, then you need a book and a pen to understand how each word connects to each other. If there are double meaning and all. That's greatness? grin grin

NAS only appeal to people who think life is about making simple things as music difficult to understand. It's not.


Now, you say MJ is top two greatest entertainer of all time.

Who's Number one then? Let's see.

Mj is not even a top 30 artist of all time.

Top 3 entertainers yes.

Yeah, right. "Which makes him greater than Michael Jackson"
Why isn't he getting Grammy's ?

Abi.

Lyrically mike no near plenty artists and bands.

Not too 50 for me lyrically.

Entertainment wise I fit gree say na e be the greatest.


Musically, he and his crew not top 30 for me if I name bands.

But his impact was out of this world no doubt

This means you actually don't know anything about music.


Music is about chords progression, arrangements, melody and harmony.

Can you listen to Thriller and pick out by ear the chords used in them? The different chords used in Elton's Sacrifice and see the beauty in how they are arranged to make sense?

The only thing you talk about is lyrics lyrics. Anyone can come up with poetic lyrics! It doesn't make you a musician.

Now, the ability to write those lyrics on the chords, melody and harmony is what makes you a musician.

A musician is a composer, singer, songwriter, instrumentalists, director, and producer of music.

Now MJ compose songs, writes, plays only piano as an instrument, directs music but do not produce.

That's why I initially said when it comes to being a musician, folks like Prince stands tall above MJ. Prince could play 16 musical instruments at professional level. He wrote. He directed. He sang. He produced. That's a musician.

NAS doesn't do those stuffs.

To give you a perspective of who a musician is, think Fela. That's a musician.

None of the guys in your list comes close to Fela as a musician.

But as an artist most of them supercede him.

You get?

Michael Jackson combined everything - music, entertainment, dance moves, popularity, fame, lyrical content, influence etc Anything music he's the number one in this era.


Nas is a great lyricist. I always rate him up there with Rakim. But in this era, no artist can be compared to Michael. John Lennon could have been a worthy rival if he had lived longer but right now dead or alive Michael Jackson is the best music artist of all time.



Michael Jackson is to music as Lionel Messi is to football as Muhammad Ali is to boxing as Michael Jordan is to basketball.

CONTROVERSIAL "Portable"

Keep Zazzuing.

Late Michael Jackson ( May his soul rest in Peace ) has done his own.

You do your own.

Let the outside world judge and rate you.

Stop setting exams for yourself and marking your scripts yourself.

How old are you sir?


MJ existed when there's no SM and had global influence. Hundreds of millions of fans around the world.

That's whom you say is overrated?

Forever opened a global door for people of colour. He's overated.


Have a very powerful singing range, overrated?


Had a MJ dancing style, and inspired millions to adopt his styles. Even begin music (Lil-wayne). Overrated?

Same MJ created a global national anthem through Heal The world? Overated?

Thousands and millions of YouTubers are still making money today teaching MJ dancing styles. Overrated?

Tell me what you mean by overrated.
