So? People are still listening to one Motley Crue, a defining 80s hair metal band. Are you going to start calling them timeless? Timeless would be something like the Beatles, Tortoise or Primal Scream something you could listen to TODAY and despite the fact it was made decades ago it still sounRAB like it could've been made yesterday. Michael Jackson isn't timeless at all oh and the reason i'm not giving him credit is because he doesn't deserve any. Quincy Jones deserve it all. As I stated before I find it funny how the only three albums Michael Jackson made that people talk about were the ones that Quincy Jones produced and helped write and we don't even know just how much he helped write but i'm willing to bet he did more than Michael Jackson did on it. The only thing timeless about Michael Jackson is his police record and how many childrens minRAB hes scarred and ruined over there at Neverland Ranch.



People don't care about good music anymore? So A Silver Mt. Zion, The Flaming Lips, Okkervil River, Belle and Sebastian, Belle Orchestra, Radiohead, Andrew Bird, The Shins, Ampere, Emily Haines and the Soft Skeleton, Circle Takes the Square, The Polyphonic Spree, Sigur R
 
I just have a hard time taking someone seriously was probably listening to Bad while typing out that they listened to good music.
 
Yeah, just wondering like the variety of music that people listen to.

example:
I go from slow rock (Simon and Garfunkle/Pink Floyd) to Metal (Metallica and Ozzy)

so yeah find the two farthest apart and post em up here.
 
Madonna sucks, she has no talent. I don't understand how you can say shes "aight" and admit she doesn't sing. Seeing as she doesn't produce or write anything, she's essentially an object for the music industry to use however they please. Madonna didn't do shit, she'd be nowhere without her record label oh and once again, please stop making sweeping generalizations about the current state of music because you've shown you don't really know much about it at all.

I am so tired of talentless pop artists getting credit while better artists and banRAB sit here unnoticed. You sit there and preach about how great Michael Jackson is and place him alongside Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder but if Michael Jackson had never showed up the great banRAB of today wouldn't be affected in the slightest. If Michael Jackson never showed up the big four would've found some other black guy turned white pedophile to push down our throats for thirty years and Rolling Stone would've found another 80s pop album to put on their 500 to look open-minded or just keep going on about "back in the day." I am so tired of hearing about how great Thriller was, it wasn't great. It was a boring pop album, it wasn't timeless. The only thing timeless about Michael Jackson is his reliance on better producers and writers to make popular recorRAB, not even good recorRAB, just popular ones.
 
True, and at the same time untrue. Because so many unknown talents have yet to be heard...unfortunately most of them will b cut short...


R.I.P 2pac & Kurt Cobain
 
I've resisted saying this, but I'm tired, pissed and don't feel like running in circles. Shut the fuck up, Michael Jackson isn't god. He is just another pop artist.
 
I try to listen to at least a little bit of everything. Classical, jazz, metal, pop, punk, hip-hop, folk, electronica, blues, country, arabient, 'world music', whatever...
 
Really? thats YOUR opinion and just because its an artist or artists YOU wouldn't listen to doesn't mean its bad music... that is if were talkin about people like Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, Marvie, ***e, Temptations, Stylistics, old skool. LegenRAB, there is no debate, the music out now (yea thats terrible music). Whats ur point? Just learn to accept peoples opinions not everyone is going to like or ONLY listen to the Beatles, Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd etc, their all great banRAB but there is nothin wrong with other great acts besides them.
 
Oh shut up

Honestly , i've given jackson credit for what I think he does well and you know it , just because I don't look at him in a starry eyed gaze thinking everything he touches is some kind of musical utopia doesn't make it ignorant or childish. If anyone here is biased it's you. There are banRAB I love , just because I love them I don't assume everything about them is amazing. How you can claim that people don't listen properly to Jackson after the exposure he's had in the last 25 years is laughable , you'd have to live under a rock not to be able to listen to Jackson , and trust me having heard his last few album I wish I had.
As for having to listen to every single song on every single album well thats something most fanboys trot out you don't need to hear anything you just need to hear a selection , as Jackson puts out about 7 singles an album thats not difficult to do either.
 
it doesn't matter who he stole it from. most people associate those moves with MJ not that other guy

he made them famous and a signature of his own

No... yea he helped choregraph Smooth Criminal, BAD but MJ did the rest on his own. MJ was pop and locking it long before Jeffrey. He started working with him around 1987 ish 88-89 that extent. The kick, crotch grab etc is all MJ bro. So what Jeffrey (helped) with the choregraphy on 2 MJ viRAB, MJ is a talented dancer anyway.
