MJ VS elvis


VENOM

Recommended Posts

.. so what makes a 'king' of music? cos imo elvis is no king. hes only known and liked in the west mainly.yeah all of us are prob too young to know what impact he had at the time but still i think hes no Kingall they did was get a white guy who sounds black and gave him bare black people's songshe probably gave them songs his own stamp which made him authentic.he had the normal rockstar lifeand sold over 300m in salesMJ.. reinvented music dance and videoand is known in every country on the planet. i give elvis 5/10 and MJ 9.9/10.who is a major elvis fan ? what was your mans legacy

Elvis's music pisses all over mj's imo. so im going for elvis as all roundking of music.
but its not his music nor his style he just got given stuff. was he a songwriter? he gets a bly for videos cos there wasnt music videos then. but elvis films were sick i wont lie which probably beats MJ's films i think.and why is MJ king of pop and elvis not King of Rock? why just THE king?

Two different people, Two different eras, Different type of musicThey are kings in their own respects.Jackson was way more entertaining on stage because he was a dancer, one of the best to ever do itElvis was more entertaining because just his presence alone on stage was enough, he had the right energy and charisma, plus his voice had a hypnotic effect to women.

This isn't even debatable imo.MJ was an INTERNATIONAL superstar & has more classics then any other artist. Count them if you doubt it.Nobody in Africa & them places gives a f*ck about Elvis.Elvis wasn't even original, the only thing groundbreaking about him was he was a white man singing black plp music. Ang tite lil richard & them.

pretty sure elvis used to write his own songs, also the guy played the piano and guitar. plus had debatebly the best voice theres ever been, his range was sick.

personally prefer michael jacksons music and always will but i realise elvis music was gret aswell. he didnt sell mass amounts by some mad coincidence so i laugh when people act like he did.The 2nd biggest selling artist of all time is a huge title to hold tbh, especially considering the fact his music wasnt listened to in some countries that other artists music was.

Prince was tremendous and multi talented but at that time, people were debating who was better, Prince or Michael?..Prince mixed funk,soul,rock toether and produced greatness BUTMichael was the complete package he had no weaknesses musically and he strengths exceeded beyond the normal talent of a complete musician.His music inspired the music we hear today, He inspired producers like, J Dilla (R.I.P., Q-tip,Pharell,Timberland,9th wonder. Also without Michael Jackson, Chris Tucker wouldn't be where he is. Chris Tucker's first stand up on def jam was about Michael Jackson that made him also there would be no rush hour 1,2 & 3. Fresh prince of Bel air wouldn't of been where it was ,he inspired Alfonso Ribeiro. I don't know a lot about Elvis, but Elvis was aimed to a particular audience, Michael wasn't..he reached out to everyone.I don't see Elvis having the same impact in the entertainment industry as Michael Jackson did. f*ck i can't believe his dead man..It's hard to take..R.I.P. Michael
