Prince VS Michael Jackson
the408figga:
Personally, im with my mayn trauma on this one. The bottom line is Mj has reached soo many people with his music. I dont care what kind of legal drama he is in. You cant write him out of history. You cant take away what he has done.
TO have the childhood success he has had, then flip that into an adult career that may be the best ever?
Now to me, prince was a dope artist, but he has become too eccentric. His earlier stuff was on par with mj's stuff. But his recent stuff is just out there. I guess he is just bored of making hits.
At this point, obviously prince is in a good position to make a comeback, with his new cd "musicology" coming soon. It would be interesting to see what he puts out

All this time and you & Tramua are missing the point. Read everyone's post who wrote about prince being better and look for the mention of Mike. "You cant write him out of history. You cant take away what he has done." No one said Michael Sucks. No one said has was not one of the greatest. All we said was Prince was better. In each one of our replies it says we are MJ fans too. (Not be hating on anyone)Tramua is the one who said all that stuff about Prince that got me & others started. This whole thread is about opinion! Because at the end of the day. Were are all Pac & Biggie fans. We could argue for days about who was better. Same with Rakim, GM Flash, Cube, Jay, Eminem, Nas, & Snoop. Truma asked for facts so we gave some. Another fact is we Love Mike... We just Love Prince a little more. 8)

I don't think Prince is better because he wrote "more" songs, I think he wrote better songs. Iwas just making a correction to the list of songs Jackson did write. Personally I think their both mediocre artists. Just because you're popular does not neccesarily make you great. Elvis is and was huge, bigger than Jackson, but you won't hear me say he was an amazing artist. Off the top of my head here are some artists that are head and shoulders above both Prince and MJ. Pete Towsend, Lennon or McCartny, Bruce Springsteen, Jimi Hendrix, Roger Waters, Jimmy Page, Niel Young, Brian Wilson.
FullSurfDude:
Let get this SHIT straight. Michael is the All Time. Through all his struggles and problems with him trying to change his look every damn minuet, he still was putting out hits after hits. You always here about something that he has or did from the past. With Prince, no doubt he's a genius but you don't hardly here shit from him in terms or what things he has done, like for charity or things like that.

Prince VS Pete Townsend....they're equal on guitar, i'd say but prince can outsing, outdance, outperform, and outwrite him any day of the week
Prince VS Lennon and Mccartney- writing wise, lennon and McCartney are the better writters but prince would give them a run for their money, but again prince is a better singer (waaaay better all 4 beatles have horrible voices), he's a better guitarist, pianist, dancer, ect.
Prince VS the Boss- bruce is one of my favorite artists but prince is just better than him in every aspect.........also bruce relies on the e street band, prince could interchange anyone with the revolution and make poppin music...bruce can't say that.
jimi hendrix vs Prince-this is a good argument here. i'd say overall they're about the same
Roger Waters Vs Prince- no contest it's prince all day here, Roger waters and pink floyd wouldn't be THAT band if it wasn't for Gilmore and their first lead singer going crazy.
Jimmy Page-no contest here, prince is on par with page as a guitarist, jimmy page is the most overrated guitarist, and that's all page is....prince is more than just a guitarist.
neil Young-lol c'mon man.....prince all day homie
brian wilson-yes i'll say it brian wilson is a genius, i think he deserves all the credit the beatles get, BUT as an Artist and a performer prince is on par with Brian wilson and surpasses him in many many areas as well
Prince and Jimmi Hendrix= the 2 best solo artists ever
