Yeah a lot of people are asking for one, myself included. I'm sorry, but both of his solo albums were really good.

Quest really had me confused with this one....ah well....just stick to playing those drums, my man.


One thing i find funny though is that Prince is the only one out of this trio that rarely gets his "throne challenged" by media hysteria and its probably because....its extremely hard to match someone to him. Who can do what he does!? All them instruments to that ability, untouchable live shows which combine musicianship and performance, dance, produce, "act", "direct", poetry, style etc, etc.
With others, its just because they can dance a bit and sing, which isn't enough to warrant an MJ title but, they get the MJ treatment anyway because he was essentially the top song and dance man, same with Madge.
But, Prince, you need that song and dance quality and then all the rest listed which is probably the most rare talent.

But, anyway, ive gone off a bit, Quest, if you ask me, is looking for attention.

I remember when Maxwell first came out and they were saying that he was the next Marvin Gaye. I heard this both on the radio and read it in a magazine..it was either Ebony or Essence I believe.

seeingvoices12 said:

Well, at least half of the songs were written for Michael so....

missfee said:

If people heard the rocking shit Marvin did in the '60s, heard all of his '70s stuff, his '80s stuff, and then compare it to Maxwell... sounds like peanuts.

I dig Maxwell but he never made anything as rocking as "Can I Get a Witness".

We've had so many "Next Marvin Gayes"

“No one is EVER disputing MJ being the STANDARD,” Quest pointed out. “[But Beyoncé] is well on her way at a quicker pace than the unspoken. This is year 10 for her at THIS level. It took MJ 13 years before he became GOD status. If you are to pick the ONE figure in music today that is taking that baton: [Usher]? Justin 1.0? [Chris Brown]? Sorry. [Beyoncé] appeals to all races. All lifestyle creeds from the kiddest of the kid, to the churchest of the church. Straights, Huxtable men…Housewives and hoes. She can ACTUALLY SING. And dances with the best of them. [She’s] a regular on most fashion mags, sells out stadiums, wins countless Grammies, makes anthems, got bank…is her own industry. (still counts for something right?)”
