Hmm, well someone with a MJ song as their username and someone that has a picture of MJ as their avatar aren't exactly unbiased observers, so...

speeddemon said:

Shouldn't all that be PAST tense, as he hasn't done either in a long time.

Yes she is. At least she's still going strong while MJ is pretty much of a nostalgia act now. He's been supposed to release a new album since 2003...

Like Axchi96 said, someone with a Madonna song as his or her username is not exactly an unbiased observer.

LightOfArt said:

LOL.

Where is he?

Anyone who takes madonna seriously as an artist is on crack , and its even more laughable when people compare her to MJ...Madonna doesn't even have half of Mj's talent...

Michael and Madonna hanging out together in 1984:


Back then,Michael was truly at the top of his game.More popular than anybody.Who knew that he would be the one to self-destruct,while she would be the one who's still going strong all these years later? I don't think anyone would have predicted that.In fact,everyone thought Madonna would be a one-hit wonder!

Axchi696 said:

Not at all, I can argue Stevie Wonder is more talented than MJ, or Prince. But certainly not Madonna.

Madonna is barely a product of the Michael era, the video era. Michael created it and Madonna took it to her advantage. Madonna would be nothing without video. Michael was already a legend during the classic pop era. He just enhanced an era, in which he redefined everything. Post Thriller created a new breed of stars and killed a generation of them.

I've never been impressed by her output, her live shows or whatever. She's an opportunist who tries to remains relevant by trying to hang on with some of the most fashionable people. When she doesn't have any promo, she dies. Her records doesn't sell with no actuality. Michael's Off The Wall alone sells every week what her catalogue do.

I do believe Madonna shouldn't have become a singer, she's not fit for it. However, I'm impressed by the fact that, with strenght, ambition, she could outlived every expectations and cement a place for her in music history books.

That's very true. I believe back then most critics said Cindy Lauper would last while Madonna would fade away in 6 months.

However, like I said earlier, Madonna can try hard to go strong, she'll never matter like Michael. It's been 7 years he didn't released new material, but he's more prominent by his influence and legacy than her. There's not one day I don't see a Michael reference in pop culture. He's arguably the most influential person in pop culture today.

speeddemon said:

I have to disagree.Michael is extremely talented,no doubt but these days,his talent is NOT what people are talking about.He's done alot of damage to his career and to his legacy.He's become a media freakshow/circus.Meanwhile,Madonna continues to do great things with her career.She still releases albums.She still tours.She's still focused on her music.

ehuffnsd said:

Wow. I can't believe you even tried that.

No way.

Madonna fans are mess, for real. If Madonna let out the loudest fart known to man, they'd swear it was the greatest song ever written.

Firstly i would like to say i am an MJ fan. In the 70s 80s 90s i would easily say MJ was at the the top of his game and by mentioning 70s,I do mean when he was performing with his brothers(mostly) Ofcourse i think like was stated sum were earlier on this thread Maddona has stood the test of time and still has sum good music coming out. Time will only tell if MJ brings out new material this year or next and if he produces the goods.But to be honest i hav a suspition the only album we will be seeing from him for a few good years is Thriller 25 and if thats the case i swear i am burning every album of his i own(which is all of them) cuz im sick of fucking waiting for that skeleton faced bastard to release new material not shitty remixes.

Better @ what? She's better @ marketing/staying relevant, & working out... & she's always made better style choices

What a question That's like asking if skin is better than bones.

Same with MJ fans.

superspaceboy said:

not all MJ fans i can admit that he is now a fucking freak.but theres no denying the mans talent.its just sum MJ fans will think of him as a god and wont take 1 bad word agaisnt him. infact half of them are as weird as he is but then again im very protective of Prince. I had to smack my mate Tom (who is 1 of them MJ protectors)for winding me up all night going on about how shit P is and he went on and on and on and on.....so i just punched him. Luckly for me tho he didnt remember the next day cuz he was that drunk.of course i did inform him a week later you should have seen his face
