Yet did MJ ever have not one, but two songs where he sings about raping you?

great instrumentalist. shitty song writer. a little overrated posthumously.

Who are some artists that were so zesty, they transcended gayness and became chads? I feel like Prince, Brett Michaels, David Bowie, David Lee Roth, Axl Rose, Marc Bolan, Paul Stanley, Fred Schneider (actual gay man, but still cool), and Elias Bender (actual middle name) Rønnenfelt (another out of the closet homosexual) excelled at this.

Rob Halford of course

Rob Halford drugged and raped Jani Lane in the 80s.

when the zesty gaychad rapemogs you

Most of it is probably garbage.

>left behind a vault with 8,000 unreleased songs

By some accounts, the vast majority of those are jam sessions and song fragments (e.g. "random hooks he came up with"), rather than actual songs.

played 27 instruments

are there even 27 instruments that actually matter or a worth bragging about being able to play?

fused god level songwriting with pop appeal

Stevie Wonder. Prince just wrote a lot.

fused god level songwriting with pop appeal

just sounds the same as most other 80's radio hits desu

remember when he sang about 'osama getting ready to bomb 2001 hit me!' in 1998?

zesty

Halford is not a groid

Yet he never wrote anything nearly as great as MJ's biggest hits

after he came out as gay, all his songs had to be reevaluated and interpreted under the lens of homosexuality and they did NOT age well. most of his catalog is singing about getting fucking in the ass by dude or sucking cock

it's like a guitarist saying he can also play bass and ukulele and banjo and all the other instruments that are the exact same just with slight differences
any time a guitarist says "i also know bass" i roll my eyes

about 95 percent of his actual released output is filler anyway

i can only imagine how awful a lot of that vault is
prince was the definition of quantity over quality. he was a decent guitar player, but no one ever praises his "drumming" skills despite his ability to play on a kit. if anything, he's an underappreciated bassist.

what did he mean by this?

but no one ever praises his "drumming" skills

Except for the people who've worked with him

great point but what i was getting at is someone can only really know maybe 15 instruments that actually matter before getting into worthless ones like tambourine or the triangle

the '27 instruments" thing is just something a publicist said promoting his first album since he played everything on it, and by his count there were 27 instruments in total and it had a life of its own he never said he could play x amount of instruments

most of his music is trash and gay faggot music, Stevie Wonder has been better for longer AND he's still alive

In what way? MJ was a hack who lip synched most of his live performances and relied on flashy gimmicks like fireworks to carry his shows. Plus all his music was shit after he left Quincy Jones.

WOAH, did you know Wacko said "kike" one time in a song about anti-racism?! Heckin basedrino!!

Stevie made some genius music. He's kind of forgotten today except from music geeks

Really can't have a single Prince thread without mentally ill pol tards bringing up their gay pedophile idol out of pure insecurity.

It's edited. The Osama Bin Laden 1998 thing is because Bin Laden issued a Fatwah on America in 1998 that caused about 200 deaths from Bombings in Africa.

While the "2001" shout (which is the edited in the part) is a cue later on in the jam for the band to switch to the "Thus Spake Zarathustra" part of the song, best known in its use in Stanley Kubrick's film 2001: A Space Odyssey. The song they were jamming to is That'll Work by Chuck Brown & the Soul Searchers, which uses parts of the Richard Strauss composition.

Freddie MERCURY

>left behind a vault with 8,000 unreleased songs

none of them are any good or he'd have released them

I love superstition and sir duke but it is a travesty the general public’s knowledge of his work is pretty much limited to that. The guy really is/was near Brian Wilson level genius

relied on flashy gimmicks like fireworks to carry his shows

You haven't watched many concerts from MJ or Prince during their prime years have you?

MJ also removed that word and publicly apologized to the Hewish people saying that it was not his intent to cause offense

I saw MJ twice in stadiums and Prince over a dozen times including small club shows that went until dawn, One puts on a stage show of about 12-15 songs that are highly choregraphed to prerecorded video and fireworks and lipsyncs the majority of the songs to a backing track. The other is a consummate musician who plays whatever he feels like for 3+ hours with one of the tightest bands in the world all 100% live and jams on songs as long as he wants to. The two are completely incomparable as musicians and entertainers and its retarded to even do so.
