That’s how I feel about Michael Jackson. Except he wasn’t a band. He was just 1 person who whispered like a shy little girl & flailed around onstage like a noodle and he kept grabbing his crotch and nobody asked him to grab his crotch. I’ve never understood people’s fanaticism.
You ever start trimming something and one side is longer than the other so, you try to even it up, but you go a little too far, so you have cut the other side some more, and it’s still not quite right, so you just keep cutting until nothing’s left?
All your personal issues with the man are yours and not in dispute. I think a big difference here is that MJ was a musical virtuoso, not just a singer and showman.
Yes, look into the man. He composed a shitload of his music.
I personally don’t even like the man’s musical output. That said, I can recognize genius. The man was nothing short of a musical genius with very few I could even list next to him, perhaps with the exceptions of Stevie, Herbie, Prince, Eno, and other brilliant minds. The guy was out of his tree, but on a level of musicality most people can’t even grasp.
Only two and one co-written on Off the Wall and three and one co-written on Thriller (although they are bangers). He did write most of Bad but anything outside of that is imo sub-par. I’m not denying he had a lot of talent but I think he’s far from a virtuoso.
Not trolling. I don’t find his solo work without Quincy Jones that exceptional. Granted the Jones stuff is amazing but Michael wasn’t able to replicate that on his own.

That was my fault. I asked him to do it ONCE, and he just wouldn’t quit after that!
Mystery solved. The rhinoplasty was the reason MJ couldn’t stop grabbing his own crotch onstage.

Let’s just say Michael got that one on the house.
Hee hee!

Was he virtuoso though? I feel like his best work was with Quincy Jones and Rod Temperton and without them he was just meh.

Lol right. Give me a god damned break! You can’t be serious, you’re trolling, or genuinley know nothing of music.
