>>127992986>tried tolmao he died at 50. his reputation completely smeared, a walking punchlineyou weren't even alive when they took down Jackoyou believe in the retconned reddit revisionism where he was 'universally beloved'. he was a joke.or do you believe in the /pol/tard "they framed him because he said kike" lmao nope. that was him seething after the pedo allegations about how badly his life was ruinedhe did molest kids, btw. boys, to be specific
>>127993052ok kike
>>127993052>lmao jesus died at 33 now what xDJews lost, get over it.
>>127993024this is just the geopolitical version of posing as a satanist
Obligatory.
>>127993052>because he said kikeFor some reason retards think he said that to "ebinly own le jews xD!!!" when in reality it was part of an anti-bigotry sentiment. It's like thinking Lennon said nigger because he wanted to btfo blacks or something.
>>127992833>still relevantIs he really? In what sense?
>>127992938Study the greats and become greater, he said it himself.But you make it sound like he just did pastiche, but MJ was an innovator as well. We all know how Thriller and Bad shaped an entire decade, but he doesn't get enough credit for pioneering the minimalist, groove-driven, digital sound design that would dominate the 2000s with Dangerous. Michael Jackson always kept his finger on the pulse of music trends, but other than Madonna for example, who followed them, he made them his own and thought them forwards.And Invincible is still ahead of its time anyway.
>>127993024I find it really funny how MJ's fascination with military and especially Nazi aesthetics has done absolutely no harm to his public image but at the same time elevated him to /pol/ icon.
>>127993522King of Aesthetics
I believe Michael was gay and probably molested kids, but I love his music and sometimes I get drunk, put on headphones and watch his music videos over and over and pretend I'm him
>>127993450He's been blowing up on streaming for a while now, he's 36th place worldwide on spotify. Probably zoomers who discovered him through tiktok. And now that it's October, Thriller is gonna get a bazillion streams again as well. He's huge globally and only seems to get bigger.
>>127993579they should give some of that revenue to his victims imo
>>127993557Nobody's worried about your bullshit obsession. Everyone always talked shit about him. He was in the tabloids every fucking month and the butt of late night talk show hosts jokes for 25 years. It never stopped. You're wasting your breathe.
>>127993696The MJ slander in the states was absolutely unreal, it was a constant never ending assault. Literal murderers were treated better than MJ. I would have gone crazy.
>>127992833unironically because he perfected the art of branding. part of the reason why his influence enjoys more longevity than prince or madonna despite them being pioneering in their own right is because he had that once-in-a-million instinct for pure iconography, and when you're competing against cats who can play your game just as good or even better, just understanding the value of shaping your own myth makes all the difference from being "merely" considered a spiritual successor to the greats to being put in a league of your own. when you pit his skillset against those of his biggest rivals it looks pretty limited and unimpressive by comparison (singing, dancing, songwriting), but there's a reason why mj is rarely diminished in any debate about showmanship: he shamelessly wore his influences on his sleeve, but fine-tuned them with his own idiosyncrasies into something iconic and irreproducible. something every popstar after him have all tried to recapture, but have yet to master to the degree he did.
>>127993785illuminate me... which of his peers were better at singing and dancing?
MJfags are almost as bad as Beyoncefags holy shit. Imagine trying to paint him as some sort of underdog in terms of skills against his contemporaries when he was regarded as a top tier performer and vocalist back then. If anything Madonna was the one who lacked a lot of skills but was able to make it work with stage presence.
>>127993842>If anything Madonna was the one who lacked a lot of skills but was able to make it work by having slutty ass videosfixed
>>127993848There were tons of sluts at the time she was making it. Arguably much more than today. Yet she separated herself from the rest. I don't even like Madonna because she was a huge bitch to everyone she ever worked with and to other artists of her time, but her aura alone made her rise to the top.
>>127993783Dont get me wrong - he was weird, but great American performer. But no one cares.
They used to say Michael Jackson cut his nuts off so he could sing higher. They used said he bought the bones of the Elephant Man and put them under his bed. Everybody hated him. Not sugar coating it.
>>127993093>>127993136Jackson and Epstein were friends

Thriller [Epic, 1982]The best-selling album of the millennium was clearly a hits-plus-filler job from the beginning--what we couldn't know is how brilliantly every hit but "P.Y.T." would thrive on mass exposure and public pleasure. The inexhaustible "Beat It" broadcasts Eddie Van Halen wielding his might in the service of the antimacho that is his secret vice. "The Girl Is Mine" got interracial love on the radio and proved cuter than "Michelle." "Wanna Be Startin' Something" starts something every time an air or floor jock starts it up. "Billie Jean" is Michael's clearest statement to date on sexuality and stardom. And "Thriller" is the rare song that's improved by its video, which fleshes out the not-quite-a-joke scariness of "the funk of 40,000 years" for (Michael and) his (white) fans. A
>McCartney was not pleased. “I think it’s dodgy to do something like that,” he once said of the purchase. “To be someone’s friend, and then buy the rug they’re standing on.” The rift was so great that McCartney and Jackson barely spoke ever again. For his part, Jackson remained generally tight-lipped over the incident. “Paul and I both learned the hard way about business,” the King of Pop wrote in his 1988 autobiography Moonwalk, “and the importance of publishing and royalties and the dignity of songwriting.”>The purchase would go on to help Jackson maintain his already lavish lifestyle and by the late 1990s, McCartney believed it was time he received a raise for his part of the songwriting equation. “I wrote [Jackson] a couple of letters and I said, Michael, don’t you think that after 30 years of being successful to this company you now own, don’t you think I could have a raise?” McCartney told David Letterman in a 2009 interview. Jackson’s response to his request was: “Oh Paul, that’s just business.”That story still makes me laugh.
>>127995601>Jackson’s response to his request was: “Oh Paul, that’s just business.”lmao
>>127995628I read that in his voice

>>127992938He is not a musician. He is a performer in the vein of James Brown R&B.
>>127996747Wrote and produced 70% of every song in his discography which is more than Lennon or Paul did
>>127992952Can't even argue against it, since it's a scientific fact. Just like Shakespeare in literature but 10x more influential globally
>>127992952The fact Michael is globally synonymous with "Fame", "Dance" and "music" disproves this. Every single famous person or artist in the world is called "The Next Michael Jackson"
>>127996747braindead take, this board is getting worse every day
>>127996794What instrument did he play?>>127996852Not an argument.
>>127998387He wrote the chords of billie jean. While you're on 4chan asking how .. some of us know how to play those chords. Would like to see you try. You don't know shit. The lesson of nigga music in the 90's was - if you don't like it - TURN THE SHIT OFF.You don't do that. You think it's easy pickings for idiots. You don't know shit. You're an asshole. Anybody knows - micheal was a faggot. But not really - that's just what people say. He fought to have his own kids by debbie row. He was married to lisa marie presley. He was black. and he was weird and unique. But he wasn't wicked, he had a pure heart. But people don't believe niggas have pure hearts. But he sold. And that's why you lose. We know you're a little boy. Mcdonalds will hire you, if you don't give up.
>>127998387The fucking instrument he played was a Yamaha cs 80 on Billie jean. He wrote that riff in one take. If not for his humongous and legendary gang of producers. it would not have sounded the same. Nothing about this song was ordinary. Now... why would they do this for one guy. Because it SOLDThis dude was raised rich. That makes him fortunate, not wicked. But when you're good hearted, and rich, people try to take advantage. EVERY KNOWS THIS. IT'S ALREADY OVER. IF HE WAS FUCKING KIDS, YOU'D KNOW IT.ASK VLARG. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zi_XLOBDo_Y
>>127998387>What instrument did he play?He sang. Since when do you have to play an instrument to make music, he had his voice. Is a choir not music because they're not playing any instruments? Get fucked.But since you asked, he played the piano, guitar and drums, though not on his songs, at least not credited. He is rumored to have played the drums on the song Morphine though. He was also a world class beatboxer and his beatboxing is present on multiple songs, like Tabloid Junkie.
>>127998387YOU CAN'T FATHOM THE FUCKING MAGNITUDE OF THIS SHIT.Some of these black kids... it saved their fucking lives.
This is the nigga you want. He was that nigga and he knew it. He was the truth and prince new it- they all knew it. But this hurt him. Because he knew he couldn't save you.
>>127999121He died because he cared to much.
how did he go from a black kid to a white man it just don't make no sense to me like that's so weird nobody else does that

>>127999176>https://litter.catbox.moe/qina3xapbmmf2glc.mp4These people have no fucking idea.
>>127999184Moz, they don't think he wrote those songs.
Ever notice how Michaels best songs were performed form the perspective of already being dead. You don't listen that close.
Billie Jean Jones Horton (born June 6, 1933) was the second wife of legendary country singer Hank Williams, whom she married in a private ceremony in Minden, Louisiana. Now. Fuck with me.
>>127999346Think twice.
>>127999346But was the law on her side for 40 days and for 40 nights?
They have no idea.

Tupac lost the battle. But i'm gonna punch you in the throat for eddie van halen.
>>127999184Michael is bigger in Europe, Africa, East Asia, North America, Latin America and the Middle East. The church also adopted his song We are the World so Mozart doesn't even have that edge.
>>128000399I don't know why your dumbass keeps appealing to fame when that's not what is in question.
>>127999184Both Mozart and MJ will still be remembered in three centuries.
>>128000453Maybe because he's famous because of his music being good dipshit, which is why various efforts to cancel him haven't worked.
>>128000510This but a HUGE part of it is the dancing, i'd say 40% of his reputation is singing/dancing, 30% is music videos, the rest is the albums
>>128000510no, he's famous because his music is good AND he dances good AND had a charismatic public image AND well made music videos AND he was business savvy AND a million other reasons. his fame isn't rooted only in his musical talent, that's why he's the king of pop, which is defined by factors beyond solely musical merit, and not the king of music. nobody considers popstars the greatest musicians.
>>128000814
>>127992833He does it the same way Nic Sequeira will make many new fans posthumously. Nic Sequeira is in most ways the successor to Michael Jackson, he is the new "king of pop" whose presence and showmanship is unmatched. He can even moonwalk, as seen in this video here:https://youtu.be/2hkb76EmBWc
>>127992884Oh come on you elect child molesters to high office every election.
His only great albums are Off the Wall and Thriller, rest are mid. Comparing MJ to Mozart is nuts.
>>127993377The real pedophiles were running the labels.
Michael was a fucking ghoul with Peter Pan syndrome for 20 years. It didn’t take a kabbalah conspiracy to make the public think he was a child diddler. Do you think rabbis whispered in school yards across the world that Marilyn Manson removed his bottom ribs to suck his own dick? That’s just the rumors you get when you’re a freak.
>>128001003OTW isn't even top 5 MJ, History is his most influential work currently
Fun fact is that his pet chimp Bubbles is still alive.
>>127993841unironically Prince was a better musician. MJ just had better songs.
>>127999152see picrel>>127993136
>>128004013>MJ just had better songs.You’re acting like that’s a coincidence, while MJ wrote and produced most of his songs himself. Prince was an extremely talented musician, but MJ was the far superior artist.
