Prince vs. Michael Jackson
this was one of the hottest "rivalries" back in the day. Who do you prefer?
I have to go for Prince. |

Do I even need to say?
At the height of Michaelmania, I still was never quite into him as much as I got into Prince. I wanted the "Beat It" jacket, and got into the older Jackson 5 material, but that's about it. With Prince, after hearing 1999, I went back and got all his previous albums, which I hadn't owned before. I bought every magazine, every 45 rpm single, every 12 inch single, vinyl and cassette tape, every protege act, made my mom buy our first vcr because the movie Purple Rain was coming out on video. 20 years after both these guys had their commercial peak, I'm very happy I picked the guy I picked. |

I think Michael Jackson is overall a better performer, and has the better material as well. I like most of his earlier work such as, Off The Wall, Thriller, Bad, and even Dangerous. The only Prince albums I like from beginning to end are 1999 and the When Doves Cry soundtrack. I do give Prince points though... he has the greater comeback. Musicology is actually good unlike Invincible.
