Which of the two back to back albums from one of the artists do you prefer and why?

One of the few times where I will completely stan out for Michael....... those 2 albums are masterpieces and completely shit on anything from that attention whore.

Off The Wall is by far my favorite MJ album and his BEST IMHO. His voice was in great shape and he didn't have that chipmunk effect or wasn't angry straining. You can hear his falsetto and natural chest voice as its supposed to sound. Great lyrics that work well with the funky music that Quincy and the crew put down. Plus Stevie Wonder influenced it so that already gives it superiority lol

Thriller was MJ at his peak. cool

Janet's 'Control' and 'Rhythm Nation 1914'

Really though, Michael for both.

No contest as it would be with his sibling.

I don't want you to think like me. I just want you to think.

With all these Jackson threads that exist at any and every given moment; sometimes I forget that this is a Prince forum.

As far as the subject goes, it's like this...

While I *recognize* that Off The Wall and Thriller are better albums, I'm about 3x more likely to play Madonna and Like a Virgin over them.

Michael floated a giant statue of himself down a river and made out with his wife onstage in front of millions of people.

I think he had the 'attention-whore' thing on lock. biggrin

....and blackmailed MTV into renaming their Video Vanguard Award after him. I'll never forget the year REM won, and Michael Stipe got up there and said "this award has nothing to do with Michael Jackson."

I don't think this thread was really started with that intent, but I fully expect a mob of MJ fans to come in here and take it in that direction, yeah.

Then there was the time Britney Spears casually introduced him as the artist of the millennium at the VMA, and when he came out and gave an acceptance speech as though he had just won an award with that title. lol

Yeah, yeah...Michael was great. Fantastic entertainer. And unlike his sister, I would call him a legend...but let's not pretend that he didn't attention whore himself to Mars and back.

To you she's a 'no-talent'. Your opinion is just that, an opinion, not a fact.

And - do your own homework, I'm not going to spoonfeed you. But yes, MJ did plenty of attention-whore shit himself and outdid Madonna in that respect a thousand times over.

For the record, I'm a huge fan of both mj and madonna, though more mj. I think mj's albums are stronger, but Madonna was my childhood hero first so I'm going with her though the album flow and talent doesnt hold a candle to mj. I guess I just want to feel happy and carefree and right now, Madonna and Janet are doing it for me, and mj is just making me sad and it's still taking time

Gossip bullshit. I don't go off of shit people say about other people, which more often than not, is a lie. And even if she did go around fucking a-plenty, it's her body and her bed, why are you so preoccupied with what she does with her own poosay? hmmm

And - Pshhh! Michael was a lot of things, some good, some bad, but he was never ugly.

No one is "bashing" MJ; the point is don't throw stones at one for something that they both do. IMO, Michael erecting shiny, Godzilla-sized statues of himself to be worshiped or awed at (complete with helicopters flying around it in a frenzy) is just as much of an attention-whoring stunt as anything Madonna ever did. But at the end of the day, who cares? Celebrities don't get to become as famous as them without various stunts, fits of arrogance, and demanding attention and reverence, so there you have it. But condemning one for it while glossing over the other is hypocritical as hell.

And, seriously, do you know every guy in the industry...and did they each confess to you to having fucked Madonna? LOL! Arrogant, ignorant and erroneous statement. Unless you shadowed every moment of Madonna's career behind the scenes, you have no idea what she did or with who. And while Madonna is not a *great* singer, my guess is that she's probably better at it than you are.

God help us if Sean Penn, Big Daddy Kane and Vanilla Ice sum up the men in the entertainment industry. lol Aside from Madonna, I wonder how many women have each of them slept with.

Far as your farts go, I hear them every time you click on 'post response,' and trust me, they don't sound better than her. razz
