aed05 Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 *secret How was Prince "pressed"? If anything MJ was the one bothered that he was forced to follow Prince's trends... How so? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janetDAYZ Posted January 22, 2011 Author Share Posted January 22, 2011 The one with the most votes wins? Why do the poll otherwise? And nothing is subjective, when you're asking for people's opinions in the first place. I gave my opinion, and now you need to deal with that. What is there to deal with? I'm a MJ fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aed05 Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Last I checked ..MJ was phoning Prince to be on a song with him ... not the other way around I never said MJ wasn't a Prince fan. He always said he was. You can be a fan of another artist and still have a more solid body of work. And still have siad artist pressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
art Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 actually Prince had Michael shook plus Prince never wanted to be Michael Jackson he was his own person by the time purple rain came out Prince had a musical empire as i said before with out the assistance of Quincy Jones we wouldn't have those classic Micheal tunes Okay, sis you better preach! Prince was always a few steps ahead of all of his peers. In 1987 he released the classic Sign O' The Times and MJ releases Bad... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSimba Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 IMHO I felt MJ was more consistent album-wise. With Prince, I'm a huge fan of his work up to the Gold Experience (but I liked Musicology too). However with MJ, I can listen to any of his albums straight through (OTW onwards I mean, when he had artistic freedom). I hate comparing though, they're both still legends. Agreed. I'm currently playing that Michael Jackson game on my Wii and there are only a couple of songs I'm not interested in dancing to. The man shat out classics in his sleep. I just got that game too!

But you still can't deal with the fact that I feel, as do most people in this thread, that MJ has a better overall collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThatOtherFan Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 actually Prince had Michael shook plus Prince never wanted to be Michael Jackson he was his own person by the time purple rain came out Prince had a musical empire as i said before with out the assistance of Quincy Jones we wouldn't have those classic Micheal tunes Prince NEVER had Mike shook Why would someone selling 45 million copies of one album...(at that time) and then 30 million of his next..be shook by Prince? By the time "Dangerous" was released Prince wasn't even any real competition for Mike anymore. Prince could never. Though I do like Prince. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jodienda76 Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 He's actually kinda brilliant. But he is also a self indulgent Gemini, who takes himself to seriously. When he goes off on artistic tangents he makes it hard to be a fan. But when he is focused and in rare form, he is better than most. I don't know...I did love the Diamonds and Pearls era...I wasn't much into him. His sound was unique, but he got in my nerves quick...I think it's his diva attitude that annoys me.

Mr. Wonder Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Prince influenced both MJ and Janet And Stevie influenced all three of them. Irrelevant? Yes. I just wanted to say it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aed05 Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Prince influenced both MJ How, when, what era? MJ was already an established artist by the time Prince hit the scene. MJ always said he loved prince and respected his work. Even in the 80s, when they were supposedly beefing and prince was throwing shade. But MJ never listed prince as an influence. If you think he is, please explain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
