Anyone else sick of ppl mentioning MJ alongside Prince even in death?

Well I am.

QUIT mentioning MJ alongside Prince, even now. This is HIS death..HIS time...STOP inserting MJ's name in it.

It's as if Prince can't exist without Michael.

This is not a diss to MJ...I cried when he passed to. I still miss him...

but now it's Prince's turn to be mourned and honored.

my two cents.

I don't argue with people about my opinions. Scram. I said what I said.

Prince vs MJ
The Beatles vs The Stones
Duran Duran vs Spandau Ballet
Kool & the Gang vs Earth Wind & Fire
Etc etc etc...

What else is new? This is of all times. Probably because some people haven't anything better to do. Including myself, because comparisons are easily made when among music lovers.

Prince was the greatest musician to ever live, Mike was the greatest entertainer to ever live...I have no issues mentioning them together. They were the best in life and still in death. I miss them both.

I always get annoyed when folks mention Prince and Jackson in the same sentence. Okay, they were from the same generation and they became famous around the same time. But that's where all the similarities end. It's like mentioning Bob Dylan and Neil Diamond in the same breath because they are both songwriters... If we want to compare Prince to an artist of his generation, then the only one who comes close to him in terms of creativity and originality is Kate Bush.

That Prince was better than MJ on every level has become more obvious now than at any time they were alive.

I'm surprised we're still here. Life expectancy of threads with the words Michael Jackson in the title is usually pretty short around here.

Okay I'm going to not assume you're equating Patty with a monkey.

I hate the "2016 sucks" posts. "we're losing a lot of great musicians this year!". Prince is not one of many to me.

Like no. I didn't even listen to those other people.

Can this just be about Prince right now?!!

Like I almost wish no rockstar died the year he died so he can have it all to himself. It's like stop stealing his thunder.
No matter the ©️, Paisley Park "official can never ™️ prince. He gave that to us verbally on Oprah in 1996. You can't take prince away from us, corporate. I mean O ( + >

Exactly. I could care less when MJ died, yeah great singer but after all the "child" stuff I lost interest. Prince's death has left me heartbroken, sad, mad. I hate the comparison....and it's also bull that Madonna is the only one supposed to do a Billboard Award tribute.....it should be an ensemble of REAL artists.
