yall so toxic lmao
Strawberry fields forever, Blackbird, Happiness Is a warm gun are examples of elite songwriting. MJ is great but I can go through a catalogue of great songwriting from Paul,George and Lennon. Plus I shouldn't have said better production wise technically but definitely more innovating. In there era they introduced slicing tape loops and used backwards recordings. that was innovative for a rock band at their time
Pretty much, songwriting is my main thing and more than a decade after discovering the Beatles I still find them extremely impressive in that regard. The disrespect ITT is sickening.
Neither
Do NOT forget the fact Michael Jackson bought the Beatles rights and gave Little Richard his rights back as a result.
Michael’s work for disrespected black artists is often not discussed.
I feel like people have turned on The Beatles recently
To be fair KTT always hated on The Beatles. Some years ago it was "cool" to make a "Migos are better than The Beatles" thread every week.
I never cared about, nor have I ever been impressed by The Beatles so Michael Jackson is the obvious choice.
Both are goat, but I'ma have to go with The Beatles bc of their impeccable songwriting and work ethic.
I mean.. if you’re talking worth ethic and not putting Michael Jackson first you have no understanding of who the man was and shouldn’t comment.

You don't know what I meant by that: The Beatles put out 8+ classics in a row, one by one, year after year. Then continued to put out classics as solo acts. Those weren't covers either. In fact covers were a very small portion of their discog and don't compare to the amount of original Beatles songs that have been covered by other acts since.
“ He back production, he got walrus gumboot
He's got Ono sideboard, he one spinal cracker” (what the f*** does this even mean)
Beatles songwriting ain’t all that bro

And MJ made the bag off all of it and then made better music
There’s levels to this game
Beatles hands down
That said, theyre slightly overrated by critics because of how their albums are put on a pedestal as if theyre are all flawless masterpieces. Definitely top 10 band OAT tho

True. I love The Beatles but I thought maybe people are tired of having the 'they're the best ever' narrative shoved down their throats too. But this is KTT
is it possible to show love to one artist without slandering another on KTT
This is against KTT rules
