They're both overrated anyway imo.

I disagree.


How is MJ overrated?

If anything he is very underrated as a songwriter, producer, arranger because most people do not know that he wrote most of his well known songs like Billie Jean, Beat It, Wanna Be Startin Something, Dont Stop Till You Get Enough, etc He has written 90% percent of his catalogue himself and most of the songs he wrote himself were number one hits. He also produced a few of his songs as well as songs for other artists. He also has played a few instruments contrary to popular opinion. Maybe he is not the greatest "artist" of all time but he was by far the greatest entertainer of all time.
