There are objective reasons for why they are Icons and legends, MJ is both.
I have made it clear previously that I don't think this current generation has any Icons or legends because they have not really made that much of an impact on music (and quite frankly they haven't).
Elvis is a legend and I don't like him (which I haven't stated plenty of times)
Madonna is an Icon and I think she is overrated.....but Madonna has Iconic and classic albums, songs, performances (MTV performance), videos etc, she has made a big cultural impact on pop culture.

I'm saying we already know you have a hard on for some these big name artists but by choosing 3 of the biggest acts of all time you're playing it very safe.
I want to see you push the boundaries of your definition and tell us who else you thinks qualifies. It's all too easy to say this person isn't on that level that band isn't either because they're not on Jackson or Madonna's level. Otherwise the thread just becomes 'my favourite artist is more iconic and legendary than yours'.
