I know you have made some stupid ass posts before but this takes the cake.

racism in the music industry ended?

Nah black artists still getting exploited w stereotypes to sell records and all types of s*** look at the grammys and how white its been forever and all that

just cause there are early examples of black success doesn't mean racism is over, its a good thing and of course MJ changed so much s*** in the game but...

these problems aren't ever gone tbh

drake need to visit africa

Beatles

Kurt Cobain

Elvis is up there but im wondering if MJ having more access to the whole world, being that technology and music industry was able to spread further, made him bigger... idk though...

Nah... career was too short... 2-3 years in the real mainstream,

while michael jackson had like 3 decades over which he was insanely popular (from jackson 5 on...)

it's not lol

Idk if niggas was playing The Beatles like that in Africa so I’m gonna go w/ Michael

exactly nobody has fame ww close to michael

Ok I’m definetly going crazy

My point is after Billie Jean, labels started funding black artists more, MTV & various white TV + Radio stations started playing black artists

He open the flood gates for Black musicians & artists to succeed past the barriers placed on them

Exactly
And mtv played mj for views not because “ he ended racism” lol

He doesn’t even come close

Don’t think I’ve yet to hear a Beatles song so MJ for sure the biggest artist of all time

oh for real, I agree MJ changed the game for black artists & showed the extent of how successful a black artist could be - basically god level for all intents and purposes...

broke down barriers.... it was just the phrasing

They definitely were. Africa has a vast midi scene especially back in the 70s-80s

correct
imagine debating this

Bullshit

Billie Jean getting heavy rotation lead to more black artists getting airplay and their music videos funded by labels

That alone lead to the success of many entertainers and allowed them to cross over past disco, R&B & soul music

Probably true but your reasoning makes you seem brand new, he’s far from the only English speaking artist to sell out countries that don’t speak the language, that’s not out of the ordinary at all

People think the Beatles & MJ are in the same category when it wasn’t even close

MJ sold almost just as much as them with less music

"they may have only heard The Beatles on the radio and not TV"

Oh so you just have no clue what you're talking about got it

You can’t seriously be comparing Drake to MJ

Drake has Billboard hits, and that’s all he’ll ever have

yea i mean the Beatles were certainly huge themselves but man MJ was just another dimension.
everybody knows at least 1 MJ song

It's also different because the Beatles were famous and touring (simultaneously) for probably less than 5 years, before they stopped

They were performing a lot in the 50s but they werent famous til early 60s and stopped touring like... 66? 65? idk
