No More Prince vs Wacko Jacko!

Prince is the definition of an artist,he records songs like'SST' in a matter of hours as inspiration strikes! Wacko on the other hand says he now will make a song about the New Orleans Hurricane tradgedy,which means he'll call up Quincy Jones,or Puff Daddy(Diddy),or Kayne West,or whoever he thinks has a pulse on what's popular at the time,and of course go with their ideas because he has no original thoughts of his own. I cringe anytime I hear that he's a genius,granted he is or was a great dancer,was very charming and entertaining as a youth with the Jackson 5,and had great albums up to Dangerous,but he NEEDS others help in order to be successful while Prince is a one man melting pot of many artistic styles and can record,write,and produce albums by himself because he PLAYS instruments,but not only plays them but plays them exremely well. I'll leave you with this when Prince makes a comment on the world you here a classic like Sign O`The Times,with Wacko you get Heal The World,which sounds like something Mickey Mouse should be singing at Disneyland,you choose.....

There's only one way to settle this;

Okay, everybody, who's better.....

Prince or Michael?

Jacko is proberly one of the most unique songwriters of all time. And thats thanx to his eccentric "wacky" behaviour. So when mIke writes, its from the heart.

Comparing "heal the world" to "sign of the times" is silly.

I love "heal the world". Melodiclaly its gorgeous.

Mike can write the best melodies sometimes.


The thing that annoys me (or annoyed me) with prince was his fight against WB (which was just dumb) and the fact he takes himself way to seriously. Though ironically his music can be very funny.

When exactly does he write? Prince takes himself serious because he is a serious musician,Wacko looks to others to provide music,lyrics,style,etc.

I know, it sucks mike rarely puts out music. And its true he rarely writes by himself anymore. But I bet he does but just doesn't want to release it.


No one needs to take themselves seriously. Prince also comes across as paranoid about his music. Like his lame as fuck legal action against that fan site. That was pathetically sad.

wacko aint a musician, but songwriting is in him, and he is a very capable songwriter and arranger.


Prince has many faults, as does jacko.

I agree with the lawsuit against websites that Prince had was very wrong,and while they both,and all of us has our issues,I have to believe Michael's issues with his face ,and his strange attraction to 13 year old naked boys takes the cake!

Oh yeah, jacko is more fucked up then Prince. But thanx to prince being so much of a workaholic for most his life, u can bet mentally, he ain't too good either.

And the death of his son was so fucked up too. Prince and mayte pretending their baby ain't dead when they knew it was is just disturbing


Also Prince marrying mani was kinda weird, as he knew she was a huge fan of his. At least Mayte initially wasn't. Thats a bit odd. What iam saying is, prince needed to be reminded how good he was by someone like mani. I dont think it was proper love from Prince.

How odd that you all seem to know MJ and PRince so personally as to know all this personal stuff about them. Prince musta confided to you that he, in fact, did need MAni to remind him how good he was etc.

Someone has built up fantasy images of their musical hero methinks.

Is it safe to assume that when Prince marries he does it for love and attraction,and is genuinely attracted and in love with the person? Jacko on the other hand is like oh no I'M BEING CHARGED WITH TOUCHING LITTLE BOYS AGAIN I( BETTER SHOW UP SOMEWHERE WITH A FEMALE(MTV AWARDS W/LISA MARIE),AND OH OF COURSE THOSE CHILDREN WITH THE BLONDE STRAIGHT HAIR ARE FROM MY SPERM,YEAH RIGHT JACKO,ONLY ONE NOSE JOB TOO RIGHT?

OH, i aint saying iam right. And i dont think about prince or mj at all on a personal level. Just on here really. And I ain't into scrutinizing everything about them 2 people either. Its just a very simple theory. I just think prince is or was insecure so he turned JW etc... iam not criticising, but both Prince and MJ are weird, but prince is just less obvious.

And yes of course i have no proof of anything I say, its just an opinion

Dumb to fight for greater control of your music? I think not. Musicians have gotten ripped off by record companies as long as there has been a music industry, but black artists have gotten an even rawer deal. Prince also saw a music industry that was changing, and despite many mistakes, is now able to get his music directly to his fans. The fight with WB was bitter, but Prince is clearly the victor. Progress and change don't happen by simply sitting around and complaining, or calling people devilish.

Prince just renegotiated his contract with WB, for a apparant sum that frankly, was way too much. Yet Prince still ain't satisfied with this, so what does he do? He fucks them hard. All because his cd's wern't selling like they should of been (and "goldnigga" was not released)
