I like the word "hate" in the mouth of jacko fans
I've read the worst critics on Prince on Prince Org
On the other hand, jacko fans start pathetic threads on P Org like "Michael vs Justin" or this one...

I Love Both of 'em just the same ...!!!

I think there's more people that like both MJ and Prince than there are people that like one and hate the other.

Count me in the like them both category.

Beck is THE ONE.

teller said:

Beck isn't bad, but if you think Elvis, The Beatles, Michael Jackson and their impact on the world he isn't in the same league.

I suppose it's Eminem at the moment.

Not ALL Prince fans hate on MJ, and yes, many MJ fans DO hate on Prince. I don't think you should use one messageboard as a measuring stick.
I used to be a fan of both MJ and Prince, but it just became more obvious, to me anyway, that musically Prince is much more of a risk taker. Prince, to me, is about the music. Even during the fight with WB, the name change, slave on the face, etc., you get the feeling all Prince really wants to do is get on a stage, pick up a guitar and tear the roof off the mutha.
MJ, on the other hand, is all about the hype and the numbers. The #1's and the record sales are more important than the actual music to MJ, imo. I get the feeling that if MJ never performed live again, it wouldn't bother him all that much. To me, MJ doesn't have that fire or passion for music that Prince does. I mean, Prince will play a 2 or 2 1/2 hour concert, then play maybe another 2 hours or so at an aftershow. That's a musician, y'all! Can't see MJ doing that. All the great Friday night/Saturday morning performances out at Paisley Park the past few years are a testament to the fact that although he fell of the mainstream radar years ago, Prince's passion for music is as strong as ever.
Anyways, that's just a few of the reasons I've stuck with Prince for 25 years, and ditched MJ. Also is doesn't hurt that Prince is still so damn fine, and MJ looks like a blind man took a weed wacker to his face.

Forget the "superstar" stuff
The first concert of my life was Prince & the Revolution in 1986 and it was extraordinary and the last one Prince in august 2002, it was terrific
I honestly thought that the reports describing his new band as one of the best/ the best of his career were exagerrated hype by non objective fans but it's true , they're fantastic
this man has sold his soul to the music, he's the last of a great tradition of afro american artists like Duke Ellington, Little Richard, James Brown, Sly Stone, Jimi Hendrix, and he has mixed their legacy with the influences of The Beatles, Carlos Santana, Joni Mitchel...there's no doubt that there will be no one like him after his death
On the other hand MJ..., I don't even understand his fans.. are you so insecure about your idol, after all you're right, the record sales are an objective fact, he's "the king of pop", fortunately the music lovers don't give a fuck and you know this, that's what makes you bitter
+ his fans can't help to promote the pathetic endless lies about everything in mj's miserable life as the truth

WHO FUCKING CARES??!!! THOSE PEOPLE CRY @ EVERY CONCERT, BUNCH'A FUCKIN' PUSSIES!!!

Guess I never even considered Michael Jackson fans...

CalhounSq said:

well from my Xperiences in the Mj.com chat room,when it used 2 be working,i would mention Prince & they would just go on about how Prince jus sings dirty songs & u know,that kinda crap.
I love michael & he was the 1st artist i ever got in2,ever had a cd of...so i despise it when people hate on Michael,& Prince too.

There is this bullshit on tv here i think wednesday nite,"what happend 2 michael jackson's face?"
What a bunch of fuckwits at channel 9,they cant make a decent program beyond importing Survivor so they air crap like this!

at least ch7's MJ program thursday nite is meant 2 be actually about him & his music (so they say)

CalhounSq said:

I cried when i saw MJ when i was 12 cos it was the most amazing nite o' my life & it just took over me!

AM I A FUCIN PUSSY???
get real!

Joshy84au said:

yes

you

ARE!!!

CalhounSq said:

Give him a break, he was only 12 yeas old.

That's nice, only two people said that Prince was a genius, but that's nice. I really don't give a damn what Michale Jackson FANATICS think about Prince, obviously they don't have good taste.

well u say we dont have good taste cos we like MJ,so who is the tasteless one here now???
bit of a contradiction that is
