@traderice96 @Quote31490249 I'd say 'Cold Sweat' was the musical blueprint of 'the one', but yea 'The Payback' feels like it kicked off the clapback/diss song culture lol. JB was/is that dude for sure!

@Exoticfunk_ @Quote31490249 Payback one of the most sampled songs of all time, literally is the foundation of hip hop. James brown is that dude

@tjjackson This show has been on YouTube for ages. One of my favorite shows of The Jacksons. Killer band too!

@TheMJAP Well acoustics is a whole other thing. That has to do more with the room played and the sound engineering. A stadium show is never going to sound as good as a small theater show acoustic wise. But I was more referring to the music tonality and arrangements.

@Exoticfunk_ Yeah you were! 🙌🏽 No, I’m saying there’s different metrics for measuring. And if you want to talk about sound, acoustics, etc., genuinely that’s the best I’ve ever heard live. But I suppose we never to talk about “totality.” Who does “a bit of everything” the best.

@TheMJAP I love Lianne. Actually I think I was the one who put you on to her when she first came out. But are you saying she is as dynamic as Prince???

@Exoticfunk_ Apples and oranges, really. I saw Lianne La Havas play with a full symphony orchestra at London’s Barbican a few years ago. I’ve never heard anything as amazing as that, live. But what moves you more? youtu.be/CccIucDqemU?si…

@TheMJAP Quincy was asked about Prince's virtuoso on the piano. In a vacuum, comparing P to Jazz greats like Herbie, there's a difference. But my point is, what makes Prince special is his unique style.That's what sets him apart. I love Rick,but even he was scared ofPrince.Well documented

@Exoticfunk_ I hear you. What does Rick James say about Prince’s playing? What does Quincy Jones say about Prince’s playing? Everything sounds good to me. But to people who really (like REALLY) know their shit?

Can you teach someone to play 14 instruments? Yes. Can you teach this? No. And THAT’S the difference.

@TheMJAP If he took the world by storm without playing instruments,can't imagine what would've happened if he played. Also, it is a great skill to play instruments but it is GENIUS and extraordinary to create GLOBAL hits by beatboxing the music you're hearing in your head.

@Exoticfunk_ @GratianDimech It’s not the playing of instruments. It’s the creativity behind playing the instrument. With practice anyone can become highly proficient at multiple instruments. Not everyone has the creative mind to play in a way that’s unique and captivating.

@TheMJAP @A_Kurcz0x There's a lot more talented kids(especially Black) out there than you think. I see it all the time. Not all that raw talent gets honed and disciplined tho is the difference. God didn't just stop making super-talented people after 1958. There's a lot of other factors involved.

People act like nobody could do what MJ could do but that anybody could do what Prince could do. The truth is that nobody (or very few people) could do what either of them could do.

@TheMJAP There's a certain magical aura that MJ has man. Have you seen the film? The 'Human Nature' performance perfectly encapsolates this. I wish we had this type of capture of the real thing, but the film and Jaafar does it justice!

@TheMJAP TBH I think Prince only beat MJ performance wise after Bad Tour. After that I feel MJ was tired of touring. He was prob tired before, but had something to prove on Bad tour. After that...

@TheMJAP True. We need this friction tbh. I just feel it's gotten too toxic on this app. Doesn't feel like our old battles 😂. Too much ignorance.

@TheMJAP I've been called a hater by both fan groups. Now somebody's gotta be lying or both. Doesn't matter to me though, just speaking my truth.(MJ as a performer, Prince a composer). You and I disagree about composer, but I'll at least respect your POV cause I know you know P's material

@Exoticfunk_ The thing is, if you say one thing about either of them, they think you’re a hater. I love Prince as much as I love MJ, I think I might have even seen him in concert more times (I think it was 5 each though). But the conversations are always good fun bro 😭🤣😭

@TheMJAP In their defense, a lot of posters on this app have opinions about Prince and don't know most or anything about his music. But this poster just ran into the wrong one 🤣

@MJRock4everOn Saw it once this Sunday.Jaafar was great(except his Thriller dance lol).Human Nature was the highlight of the film. Joe was the villain but, they(maybe unintentionally)had him warnMJ that without the family's protection,'those' people are no good.Well, that turned out to be right
