Between Michael Jackson And CR7 Who Is More Popular? by richmond500(op):
In my opinion, I'll say CR7 is far much more popular than Michael Jackson.

And if MJ was in this present generation,
CR7 will still be more popular and it won't be even close.
Most people knew about MJ after his death, but I am talking about MJ of early 2000's.
Re: Between Michael Jackson And CR7 Who Is More Popular? by richmond500(op):
Na just my opinion.
I've been seeing this topic, I say make I bring am come NL.

Modified: people really can't comment without insults, shows there are so many Kids here born in 2002.

Indomie generation has spoken once again cheesy grin. You think everybody is a football fan and must know CR7🤣🤣. Michael Jackson in an age where social media wasn't in existence was pulling large crowd physically shocked. The three most popular names are Jesus Christ, coca-cola and Michael Jackson cool

Bro, when MJ died, I was about writing waec, that is not infomie generation.
He was popular but not much popular than Celine Dion or Westlife, infact he was up there with Celine and I can't tell who was more popular between them, if you were part of that generation u will know that Celine Dion was as popular as MJ, his popularity sky rocketed after his death, imagine if CR7 die today. His funeral will dwarf MJ.
If they are in this generation where u could pick phone and see them easily, he won't be a religion, MJ used the power of invisibility to gather cult-like followership. When u appear too much and people see u always, ur value drops, this is what is happening to CR7.
If MJ was still alive, you won't compare them, more than half his fans knew about him after he died.

MJ does not have a single song except that is far much more popular than "Titanic" or "I have a dream"? even heal the world cant challenge those two songs he is not where u drop him.

..MJ to who... All those names you are mentioning can't stand with MJ. First black to penetrate and win 8 Grammy awards in just a night in 1984. All those you are mentioning can walk on the street and shop on their own but MJ can't do that cos of the people, they are gonna mob him. MJ that all presidents of the world are inviting for dinner just to dine with them. MJ is not in the same level with them, mention another name plz.

first, from the 48 laws of power.
If u appear everytime, u will just be average to people, social media and weekly football has made CR7 normal.
To see MJ, u have to fly to where he is performing. And he could only do this like once in a month or two, this has given him a godlike aura.
CR7 could play three games in a week and u could see him, take pictures with him, ask him to sign ur jersey etc.
If social media didn't give u opportunity to see CR7 daily, u will probably fly to Saudi Arabia just to see that legend once before u die. If MJ is always on YouTube, ticktock, Fbk, twitter and performs weekly, do u think people won't get tired of him?

There is no human being after Jesus Christ dead or alive greater than Michael Jackson.

Many non-footballing nations don't know CR7.
If MJ was here his social media followership would be roughly 5 billion.
Re: Between Michael Jackson And CR7 Who Is More Popular? by papyjaypaul:
When people start fainting on the sight of Ronaldo, na then you go know who popular pass.

MJ that even tribal people in remote villages knew him, without internet and social media. He was one of U.S. best global export after Muhammad Ali.

That's not true. It's all about the money, times and appeal. If MJ were alive, he would be on social media. Don't underestimate the currency of tech. Why did Trump setup his own platform? Social media is not intimate, if it was, Taylor Swift won't need to perform at shows anymore. Social.media is just another income stream. Is it not the same talk Radio hosts are talking that Joe Rogan is DOING? Why are artistes hosting podcasts and streams? It's money and I can bet that if MJ were alive today, he will be on social media. Has nothing to do with 48 laws of power. Oga 48 laws sef de social media too grin

People fainting doesn't make him more popular.
MJ has the song and the choreography that follows it, and the choreography was catchy. Dazzol
Re: Between Michael Jackson And CR7 Who Is More Popular? by Dracula123: 6:39am On Sep 21, 2024
You can't compare MJ and CR7. They are not even close.

And don't even mention Westlife nor Celine Dion. This is a crazy comparison, honestly
Re: Between Michael Jackson And CR7 Who Is More Popular? by ruggedtimi(m): 7:04am On Sep 21, 2024

Oga, MJ popularity sky rocketed immediately after his death.
What are u saying? How many times did u hear his songs played on the street when he was alive and how many times did you hear it when he died.
That very month that he died, his song was in every lips and that is where most people got to learn the lyrics of his songs, u know I am saying the truth.
Except u were very young when he was alive.
CR7 beats him in popularity
