They compared Taylor Swift's best year to Michael Jackson's death year and that wasn't even Michael's most successful year.
I was about to say that lol 😂
bro mj's prime was thriller and he sold 70 million loool its not even close
The fact that MJ's death year had a close record with TSwift's record..damn the impact that man has is unmatched and unreal
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 his death year and he didn’t even drop an album cause he died and was retired. But this is it concert sold out in minutes 😂😂😂😂😂😂. She said that we do much confidence 🤣 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.
It was a list of his unreleased tracks 😂
Michael Jackson currently is the most awarded. She beat him in AMAs and Beyonce beat him in Grammy wins. but he still has the most Awards overall. With 834 Awards under his belt including both Grammys and AMAs, which he holds the Guinness World Record for. that i dont think anyone has surpassed him yet hence why hes the greatest entertainer.
Plus he is the most awarded male artist when it comes to the ama awards and this is no easy to do
Even if they did surpass him they still can't hold that group or 2 singers or whatever that fame and success and talented and especially work ethic as a si ger or dancer just as a entertainer so taylot can't. If beyonce was the one ill be ok with that and even she knows that she couldn't. If it wasn't for michael most of them wouldn't be here to give room to all those new or kind of old performers like Taylor to kick it so
Beyoncé may have beat him In Grammys but remember that Michael came home with 8 Grammys in one night
Yeah bro all Taylor does is sings about her dum@$$ break ups and Michael has a way better fanbase
greatest entertainer without an instrument but can't be all time since mike couldn't do guitar solos and wasn't skilled in instruments like prince ✌️
You have to look at technology and availability. If Michael Jackson had access to Itunes, streaming etc. Can you imagine how thriller would have did?
The thing is thriller came at a time where the music industry heard nothing like it before. The music videos, the theme of the album were something unknown at the time so i think it would’ve performed well but not as much as back then
If MJ was still alive....man o man. Think if he was in his prime right now. They'd need something bigger than an arena.
Streaming has diluted the music industry. No matter how much they try to sell it, 1 billion streams will never hold the weight of 1 million albums sold and Thriller did it at least 60 times over, coming out when you HAD to buy music to experience it
Plus the world is A LOT more populated now than in 1982
@@Tuckedinorout imagine if we had all of this when it came out...
All of what we had today was built on what Jackson did, if he didn't do those songs, the music today would have been very different
That lady literally read off a bias record sheet that’s not overall btw awards don’t make u a better artist also streaming compared to records sells are two different things PERIOD! MJ IS THE KING OF MUSIC FOREVER!👑💯
Yes truee
@@DELILAHVEVOim both a swiftie and a moonwalker more of a moonwalker though.. But You are right
@@DELILAHVEVO No ma'am she will not. But nice try.
@@DELILAHVEVO ok and no ur wrong I like a lot of female singer s
@@DELILAHVEVO I guess but we will see what happens she might.
Michael Jackson had recorded four number one hits by age eleven. Michael Jackson could check into a hotel anywhere in the world and five minutes later they would be calling the police for crowd control. Michael Jackson can be identified with numerous dance moves (the robot; moonwalk), plus he had dances routines for every song he used in his stage performances. Michael Jackson is popular with a wide and diverse group of people all over the world. Michael Jackson had multiple number one hits as the lead singer of a group and as a solo artist. It’s like comparing a rocking horse to a thoroughbred; a drone to a Learjet; a skateboard to a sports car.
The problem with these comparisons is that Michael Jackson’s fame and legacy is far more than just statistics. His influence wasn’t just hit songs, ticket sales, awards won, and records broken. That played a huge role in it, don’t get me wrong but that man literally changed the world as people knew it at the time. No other artist has reached that level of influence on culture and society since and that unfortunately is a really difficult to both quantify and explain.
Also thr population and social media now makes it so much easier for big numbers compared to back then
This is the age of social media and internet. Michael didn't have any of those advantages n still was absolutely hugggee
Yeah go ahead and tell her to clock out and never mention Michael Jackson’s name again. What a goofy
Yeah can we talk about that she brought a new album last year, while michaels last album was in 2001 and he still sold over 20 million in 2009. Michaels album Thriller is still the most sold and most successful album of all time
the beetles are limited to the west only
Y'all going to have the same conversation with another artist next year or two. The same thing happened last year with Drake. Before that with Beyonce, even Justin Bieber managed to make it into the conversation in the early 10s. MJ will remain the ultimate standard while the artist being compared with him will change frequently.
Thriller? Bad? Dangerous? History? Compare that. Why are you comparing swifts best year with Jackson's worst sales year of 2009 with allegations and stuff. Who's more famous? Michael Jackson obviously. Michael Jackson is the second most famous human on the planet after Jesus.
Just compared his death year to her best year
Michael Jackson’s album Thriller still holds the world record for the best selling album
MJ CLEARS and its not even close💀
legends know mj sold a billion records
Music is not number is feeling
When she does it for twenty years, then maybe, because that's how long he held the number one spot
Taylor Swift Don't match because she comes from the age of the internet.
Michael does not. Nuff said
The only person you can compare Micheal jackson to is the beatles
Elvis presley rn:Am i a hoke to you?
The question was can we compare the album sales and they didn’t compared the album sales. They compared Taylor’s biggest year with Michaels death year
That concludes this whole unnecessary discussion...
The weight of online sales is like 1 lb
The weight of physical sale is 10 lb
Artists, bands, and musicians have to sell x10 of what they do now to have the same weight. So Taylor would need 22 million x 10 to equal MJ. Id even say she'd need close to x20.
So online sales will really never beat the old methods of physical sales. Also, to sell so much as MJ did, you'd need a HUGE audience. Taylors audience really doesnt come close to MJs, as his audience was literally every corner of the Earth lol. His music and performances obviously resonated eith much more people. The dances and the music was groundbreaking
Even the biggest artist nowdays would have a hard time with some of the small time artists back then
Thriller is still the best selling album of all time worldwide. Period.
My grandparents lived in rural africa in the micheal era no social media ,no tv , no radio no electricity and even they knew who micheal was .Are yall kidding?
Yes same in india
For the record, some of us were around back then and know exactly what you mean. It's these darn kids...
Let's be realistic, Michael and Taylor are from different eras.... If we argue, who sells more records, or who receives more awards, or who earns more money doing concerts, in the end it only remains in numbers.... but that doesn't influence anything the artist, the true artist is recognized for his talent in his musical creativity, singing style, dancing style, lyrical style, fashion style and more for his personality.... and taylor will never be able to surpass, nor be Michael's height... Michael is the most complete artist in many areas, here are some examples,
1) He was the first to make "the lunar step", a dance label that was broadcast for the first time on TV, from there everything changed
2) he was the first to make a music video in the style of a short film, that is, a story to tell apart from the song as it was a thriller
3) he was the first to release a film about himself as an artist, but with a recreated story like "moonwalker", he left the "smooth criminal" legacy in that film.
4) he was the one who gave life to the MTV channel, which is now an entire music industry where artists are currently recognized... broadcasting their video clips daily on TV
5) he was the artist with the highest quality of human being, by giving humanitarian contributions to different social problems in the world such as donations and contributions
6) He was the artist who innovated the most in concert shows, creating different scenarios, choreographies and special effects
7) He was the artist who generated the most trends worldwide in terms of imitations of his dance.... even though he was dead, there are new generations who do it through social networks
These are some examples of why Michael will continue to be superior to Taylor, I don't discredit the singer's talent, she is a good artist... but she still has a lot to do, maybe in 4 years she will be at Madonna's level... .but there it is
who is Taylor Swift ?
It's not about the quantity.....
Obviously michael jackson just bc they said she's having these sales doesn't mean she's great. Not all of us are swiftness as they call it. Taylor still yeah has room to do stuff but she does not have that sucxes yet and I don't like she thinks she's all hot or anything cause she's not. Do I like some music of hers yeah but maybe 3 that's it. She's a country singer right so I she might be a great country singer but that's it.
She doesn't think she's hot that's bs
Shes not a stubborn, corny ass overconfident person
These are just media and people saying when they get really excited
Only country, at least do some research on the artist your bad mouthing
Like don’t fucking compare someone who literally loved his people to someone who just sings and dances weird asf… MICHAEL JACKSON IS WONDERFUL.
we can't compare those things atm guys, complete different way to sell music, and social media didnt exist back then, and Taylor would probably be totally different witouth MJ impact like the all music industry
Michael sold 32 million copys of thriller swift didnt beat him LOL
Correction michael sold 70-75 million copys of thriller my apologies
Thriller actually sold 110 million in 2005 already. The media, Wikipedia, Google hasn't been updating it idk why. Some monopoly sh*t by sony or powerful people. In his lifetime many times in 2003-2009 Michael Jackson told in speeches that thrilled has sold 110 million albums
michael jackson by far
What about Michael Jackson at his peak?! Does that 70 million dollar sale in 1984???
‘Thank God for social media as its helping people surpass exceptional talents by an atom JUST in certain categories.!
still, I say, congratulations to her.!
Michael jacksonNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN❤NN❤N❤NN❤N❤NN❤❤NN❤
Let me say it - MJ is at least 5 times more popular than Taylor Swift.
Michiel jackson 🌎 no1 dancer king of pop
why people always do this? comparing tay to MJ., and then comparing her to beyonce, and then comparing her to drake. and the most ridiculous things: BW comparing her to kelce's ex's ass. Look here, MJ is a legend, and he start from as a group since he was like 7? or 8. and he has had a long career bfore his death, he was a mega star in the time where social media isnt exist yer. no toktok, fcbook, ig, X, youtube were accessible only for small portion of people who can afford comp and internet, no cellphone. so MJ is the legend. give Taylor more year. then judge her when she was 40 or 50. who knew she could smashed another awards, another achievement. you just want to talk about tay and making fun of her. not cool
That's like saying Jordan's 2003 was worse than jason tatum 2023 stats...
Why nit compare peak years? Because if we do we will wee that 70 million is more than 22 by over 3 times!!!
They're wrong.
The only person who can fairly compete with MJ in fame is Jesus himself.
You do know they shut down social media platforms because of his death …. You know what nvm 🤦🏽♂️
You have to see the culture today and then. Art is dead now a days and we have become so accustomed to bad taste. Lets take the art if these two artists and compare them MJ is far superior if we do that.
ANY JACKSON MICHAEL JANET DESTROY TAYLOR SORRY. TAYLOR NEVA PLAYED IN THE AUDI
Far out, Michael Jackson is more famous
or or OR we could stop comparing completely different artists and appreciate them for how they have massively contributed to the music industry and the world in their own ways, even if you don't like their music. Because whatever you think about Taylor Swift or Michael Jackson or Beyoncé, they have all had a massive impact along with many other amazing artists and its a stupid argument anyways.
6 billion ppl back then compare to 8 billions now, biggest doesn’t meant shit 2 billions extra ppl and u only pass 3 mill?
Ladies shut up I don’t care Micheal Jackson is so much better than t swift
Taylor isn’t sh!t compared to Jackson
Stfu pink lady michael’s a legend 😊
When ever did an MJ concert ever cause a 2.3 magnitude earthquake. TS did. There's your answer.
@@user-wr7zb1go7c I forgot to add the fact TS has never had child crimes brought against her. So.
TS her fans are all white girls that got dumped by their boyfriends and now theyr girl power.
@@sherriwattrick5756those accusations were just an attempt to rob him off cash, all of them were disproven.
And guess what MJ became world popular in a world where there was no social media or internet. I'm from India and even my grandmother knows Michael Jackson, and she doesn't even listen to English songs.
There's your answer.
