    michael jackson and kanye share the same ability to make art that peaks adults interests but also is like a completely different language to children like i swear to god they were both so perfect to me as a child and i understood their artistry and how good they were before i even knew how to judge that in an individual

    can someone make a comparing artists thread and keep that behavior over there

    bro wants to quarantine the convo 😭 if your argument can’t survive outside a “designated thread” maybe it wasn’t that strong to begin with

    bro you all dont know how to do comparison debates

    im putting their actual careers no matter what during that time

    yall getting too specific and talking in circles. the point is that anyone with drake or mikes level of talent and cultural ubiquity would be an actual god in the peak of celebrity era

    hell if anything drake would be even more beloved being that he isnt nearly as accessible, michael imo would have handeled to the social media era amazingly but also his allegations would have probably had him publicly hung. if drake went through what he did last 2 years.... mike woulda died no funny s***

    It’s just an impossible comparison

    You can’t compare 2 artists from different times

    The artists are products of their time

    Michael Jackson's music wasnt as popular 17 years after his first solo album as Drake's is now, in his 17th year of his career.

    Yes because of streaming and the abuse allegations, not because Drake is more popular than Michael Jackson

    i mean bra duh nigga i do think though the easiest way to compare them is to just place them in each period faithfully

    i think of it like 2k what happens if i make a my league where i put 04 bron in 1985 and vice versa

    If Michael Jackson didn't exist, then music would look extremely different today, especially for black artists, so it's pointless to theorize how his career would've played out in 2009

    Ohh, Does he make you spend money on games?

    Another good question, when he was very young, yes, and he didn’t understand the concept of money and robux, but as he’s got older he’s gotten more logical, he pays rent($10)taxes($5)savings($5), and it has taught him money management, we also looked up how predatory micro transactions are and he was pissed he was being taken advantage of

    I suggest you do some research on music history, the guy was drowning in debt, and the only thing that could save him from bankruptcy was the Beatles catalog. The Invincible album was a failure because he was beefing with Sony
