Girl, I read the first 2 paragraphs and I was done ...
And no I didn't call YOU pretentious, I said, and I quote, " the LEVEL of pretentiousness" nice try though.
So you think you're properly equipped to comment on something you didn't even read? I mean, you just said you said the "LEVEL of pretentiousness" you got that from 2 sentences?
Look, I doesn't matter. It's pointless fighting. The thread specified to give reasons, I did that. I prefer Madonna, that can be the end of it.
Michael is amazing but i'm gonna go with Madonna. She completely changed the game for females without her we wouldn't have any of our current pop girls doing what they do or pop girls that would be allowed to step out of traditional roles.
He was just one of a kind, a performer like no other...there was something about him that was so captivating and so intriguing. He has left a mark on this industry and honestly generations to come will sing his praises!
Madonna is a good artist, BUT she doesn't come close to Michael in music, artistry, achievements, sales & impact! There comes a artist in each generation who stands out from all the others. And for the past generation it was Michael.
I mean his impact is unreal and the most interesting part about him is that, He cannot be imitated....even if someone tried real hard, they would fail. His persona was so enigmatic & larger than life...he looked/talked/walked/performed like a superstar. He was a genius when it came to music...and his intellect when it came to his craft was beyond.
And the way every corner of the world mourned for him, when he passed away. I mean even in 3rd world countries they celebrated his music & life and remembered him fondly! It was very touching to see!
Madonna hasn't made the kind of impact Michael did and she didn't get to achieve half of the things Michael did in a much shorter but more memorable musical career.
Moreover, Michael had the ability and the charisma to reach a far more broader audience than Madonna. He not only catered to gays but also straight men, women, kids, elders etc. That's how powerful he was!

michael on the other hand influenced a lot of males like timberlake, usher, jb, cb etc.

Chile... I said 2 PARAGRAPHS, and skimmed over the rest, that's enough to come to the conclusion that you are pretentious, and I'm not just talking about that specific comment either, I mean your blog to
ARTISTICALLY, Madonna is far superior to Michael Jackson.
It’s undeniable: Jackson spent his entire solo career repeating his own music, the same formula over and over again. His catalog is musically limited. There is nothing “artistic” about repeating the same formula or redoing the same things, especially if the purpose is to achieve the same commercial success as in the days of yore.
On the other hand, Madonna’s musical catalog is endlessly superior, richer and more varied than Michael Jackson’s. Madonna’s body of work is a reflection of her creativity, she truly has an artistic soul. Not only has she changed the direction of her musical work in every step she took, but she also took real artistic risks rarely seen in the business.
It’s rather perplexing how Madonna’s incredible artistic endeavors are overlooked, while Jacskon who repeated his formual is praised and referred to as “amazing”. What’s amazing about singing the same music and performing them the same way for 20 years? Madonna, at the peak of her fame and commercial success (with the Blond Ambition) was transitioning into her Erotica Era! That is what’s called a real artistic and creative risk! Madonna has always created different ways of expressing herself while poking the society at the same time.
People mistake their personal taste with reality. For those who disagree with the fact that Madonna is far superior to Michael Jackson, argue this:
Rock With You, Beat it, Thriller, Billie Jean, Bad, Smooth Criminal, Remember the Time, Black or White, You Rock My World… they are all great, but no one can deny they all sound the same (and these are songs from 1979 to 2001). In comparison, Madonna’s delivered Lucky Star, Into the Groove, Papa Don’t Preach, La Isla Bonita, Like a Prayer, Vogue, Erotica, Secret, Ray of Light, Music - you can’t get a catalog richer than that.
Madonna’s body of work is endlessly superior to Michael Jackson’s. Let their music speak for itself.
lol this is so much word vomit for something that simply isn't true.
Michael Jackson was and still is miles ahead of Madonna. Always has been, always will be.
Michael is amazing but i'm gonna go with Madonna. She completely changed the game for females without her we wouldn't have any of our current pop girls doing what they do or pop girls that would be allowed to step out of traditional roles.
Thank you !!! See you can stan for your fave and still be honest and know the truth.
The moonwalk, Beat It Jacket, MVs, Choreography, Glove. Then we have music. Best selling album of all time, 5 #1s from one album, 13 #1s... He even has a Disneyland attraction
If you read what I wrote you might notice the words "solo career" Before that he was under the control of his father and had very little input in what he was doing.
he had about 5 solo albums before Off The Wall...you clearly have no idea what youre talking about

More talented, influential and artistic than Madonna.
The impact of the Thriller video alone >>>>
Before Thriller this is the kind of video pop artists made:
He elevated the entire genre in a way Madonna hasn't.
First of all, this is not official vid.
Second, Madonnas budged for the first album was minimal, she did what she could afford. MJs vids for Off The Wall look similarly and he was more established than M at that time.
He was just one of a kind, a performer like no other...there was something about him that was so captivating and so intriguing. He has left a mark on this industry and honestly generations to come will sing his praises!
