Prince was a very talented multi musician, I’m not a big fan , but anyone who can play guitar like Jim Hendrix gets my vote ! Jackson was a paedophilic idiot. |

We’re talking about being an artists purely, not anything else ( although I somewhat agree with you) One of Prince’s idol was Stevie Ray Vaughan |

Agree with you, with the exception of Off The Wall. Prince was more prolific, more wildly varying in styles. |

Everyone is welcome they’re opinion, being the greatest of all time I’d argue against. Regards of a showman, I’d say yes.. but that would ultimately be between MJ & Freddie Mercury |

Stevie Ray Vaughan,
Jimi Hendrix,
Prince
^^^ down to being a tactical musician, vocal and playing guitars.
Regards of vocals, putting a show on..
Queen ( Freddie Mercury )
Michael Jackson
Elvis Presley |

Neither of them are good don’t ever compare Christina Aguilera or Britney Spears in the same breathe as MJ or Princes, that’s diabolical. |

"Prince without a shadow of a doubt. His technical musical ability is enough on it's own, but allied with his creativity and delivery puts him in a totally different league. "

Hi, I don't even know how you can put these two Artists in the same sentence.......
There's absolutely no comparison between the two. Prince is and was far more superior. He could play 27 musical instruments, yes 27.
Not to mention his song writing including Sinead O`Connors ``Nothing compares to you`` & The Bangles ``Manic Monday`` both Top Hits in the 1980s. Not forgetting his own material and that with Sheena E. I'm not a massive fan but hey the man was a musical genius |

Wasn’t quote saying they’re levels together? But they have been a lot writ and made of the two’s rivalry over the years.
Like I’ve stated, I much prefer Prince. But anyone would be a fool, to deny that MJ hasn’t done masterful stuff himself... |

Prince 100% pure sex. Great timeless tracks, experimental, influential, innovative. Just pure genius all round.
Michael you loved as a kid (dont go there ;-p) but Prince you loved as an adult

Its impossible to listen to MJ anymore without questions in your head
Played Thriller non stop when it came out and loved it
When I play Prince I think of what a musical genius the world lost and some of his songs are truly world class...my favourite is Cream |

Agreed . I struggled to choose which one i like the best, Off the wall album is a classic. I remember when Thriller video came out, back in the day i remember people use to stand still in a city centre and watch the Thriller video outside HMV shop. |

The answer is prince...... although the sub answer to this could be the “black” version of Michael Jackson... the era endings somewhere between thriller and bad..... |

Totally see where you're coming from with this, I do find I have a mental block with his earlier stuff because of the music that came later |

The 1980’s we had 4 of the best competing against each other Michael Jackson , Prince , Bruce Springsteen and Madonna.For me all were good in different ways but if I am choosing just one then it’s Michael Jackson the Thriller album , videos and dance moves were extraordinary in my opinion and the fact that he was also a child star before that just cements his place as my number one. |

And amazingly, Madonna, Michael Jackson, Prince, were all born just a couple of months apart during the summer 1958 |

Prince way better than Jackson. Prince was Little Richard, Jimi Hendrix and James Brown all rolled into one. Wrote most of his own stuff unlike Jackson. Jackson's dancing was way too choreographed. Prince had a much more soulful voice. Had better vocal range than Jackson. Both very weird in their own ways though. |

Has to be Prince. Jackson was initially successful because he was the cute youngest member of the Jackson 5. Moreover, MJ was only a singer and dancer. Prince was the real deal. A highly gifted musician, writer, compo and arranger. Oh and a great singer. Whereas you could half bet on what Jackson’s next track would sound like, Prince just blows you away with his ability to switch genres or create new ones at the drop of a hat. Prince could produce a hit using only a tea box bass and kazoo - doubt that Jackson could. |

Haha I totally pictured him saying that! ... growling that
Some of the older stuff had the filthiest of lyrics - the For You Album and Dirty Mind ... a real go to for background music - or just loudly singing along when the house is empty |
