should i just cut ties with him?

doesnt he sound jealous and angry?
Hes the type of person who always says something negative.. tonight he asked me if id like to go see Ac/DC concert,, we were looking for tiks online, having an ok convo and i said Michael Jacksons Thriller is the best selling album internationally, 100 mil copies and Ac/DC is #2.. Then he says in a pessimestic tone .. "the only reason why MJ sold that many albums is because MTV played him and without a gimmick he would never have sold that many and the same goes for everyone they played on MTV.. "
I just said oh well i wasnt talking about that , i just said AC/DC is #2 , then he got mad and went into this whole thing about how people played on MTV didnt make it on their music merit alone.

I told him that he sounds jealous, jaded and unhappy and i feel bad for him. Then he starts arguing with me "IM NOT JEALOUS, they should of played other artists on MTV" I said "maybe get some anger management" and i walked away, then he came after me and said again the only reason why MJ sold all those albums is because of MTV and he said same goes for Madonna.. I told him he sounds really jealous,, and told him to get away from me,, now were not going to the concert.

Why did he start an arguement with me?
hes 31 btw
the thing is he grew up on MTV and loved all the bands that played, now hes saying they were all talentless, His tone was sarcastic and negative.
