I figured that I should provide a link to some Prince fams about a recent blog post I wrote in regards to the media overhyping and excessive coverage of Michael Jackson's death.

Check it out here: http://firstwedream.com/0...l-jackson/

I was getting quite angry during the coverage at how over-the-top the media was getting, and wondering "how are they going to top this when the vastly superior Prince dies? 6 months of coverage in the news?"

Check out how I broke down Prince's superiority over MJ and why the news media has now placed themselves in a truly awkward situation for that inevitable day where Prince passes.

Not only is this topic but is biased and offensive to MJ fans. There is an existing sticky for MJ-related stuff.
nuff said.

This is the kind of thing that gives Prince fans a bad name

Druidblue, I understand that you love Prince. We all do...


but there's no denying that Michael was and is the biggest star ever. And as much as you and other people want to deny it, Prince was never on that level of success as Michael or Madonna. There are places around the world that know who those 2 are but don't even know who Prince is.

That's why Michael's passing was so huge. Michael had a 40 year career and was imprinted in popular culture as is Madonna


The media didn't put themselves in an awkward situation at all

There will always be people in denial regarding the importance and longevity of Michael's career. It is just a sad shame that he isn't here anymore..
R.I.P Michael!
