Wacky McJackson could not pave the way for Prince because Prince was on MTV first. Why do you keep embarrassing yourself with your fantasies and obvious lies?
As far as Prince working to promote his records, the purple one has McJackson beat by 7 years of constant touring as a solo act, while McJackson had to make do with splitting the concert grosses with his brothers and his violent daddy, Joseph Jackson. Prince also stared in a few movies, “Purple Rain” winning an Oscar. On that tour, Prince played to 1.7 million people alone. Add the box office tickets for the film, and it is easy to understand why Prince was the best selling artist of the eighties. On top of that, several artists recorded Prince songs. Prince was loaded with millions of dollars coming in. McJackson’s first tour as a solo act was in 1987 for “Bad.” In that amount of time, Prince had completed 7 tours. Eye can be positive that Prince never played to empty stadiams like The Jackson’s ill fated “Victory” tour. That was definitely a crap album too. The last chance for the brothers to ever reach #1, and they blew it. Of course, McJackson fans believe that everything Wacky did, turned to gold. The album and tour was a financial disaster. lol.
We know that Latoya Jackson publicly criticized her brother Michael, but his own mother, Katherine even complained that Michael was gay. It was because he was hanging out with his victims, not showing any slight interest in adult women. McJackson only married to take some of the heat off of his first rush of allegations in 1993. Of course, there was still Bubbles The Chimpanzee. Ever notice that Wacky carried the Webster midget star like he carried Bubbles?
McJackson was seen with a variety of older motherly types like Diana Ross, Elizabeth Taylor and even Brooke Shields. Like Lisa Marie Pelvis and the chunky Debbie Rowe after them, they were merely decoys for award shows and red carpet events. It wouldn’t take long before his real love interests would be revealed. McJackson was getting quite bold too. It is all captured on hundreds of photographs and video. Wacky was only happy when he was with his “special” friends. He looked like the cat that swallowed the canary. Gee, eye wonder why that was?
Prince played a role to attract an obvious gay audience, especially with “Dirty Mind.” That is because Prince knew that women would flock to him as well. In the later years, Prince covered it up. He got over exposing his body. Yet, Prince always loved beautiful women. He just was not a homophobe. He accepted people as they are. Besides, some women are not threatened by gay men, so Prince took advantage of the fact that more women would be @ his shows. Prince was highly intelligent and did not care what people thought. That is why Boy George could only dream about having Prince.
It was McJackson that denied he was gay and his brothers made him feel ashamed. That is why he had two fake marriages to women, even though he dispised them. Prince loved beautiful women. He did not date gals like the 400 pound Debbie Rowe.
Justin Bieber’s albums are crapola, like most of the rest of the hacks around today. He is irrelevant compared to Prince. Bieber’s hero is Wacky McJackson, simply because Wacky’s lower standards. It would not matter how many number ones he has because he gets there simply by default. If anything, Bieber beats only Wacko. Prince was a superior artist that composed, produced and played multiple instruments on all his albums. Quality matters, and therefore, will always be critically acclaimed works. Prince was a musical genius, whereas Bieber is just a cheap lip syncing version of Wacky McJackson. Bieber beat his own hero because The Jackson 5 failed to go number one with any of their albums. Very simple.
Justin Bieber is still a hack. Little girls eventually grow out of their teen crushes. Otherwise, 55 year old women would still be buying Donny Osmond. It is sooooooo precious that you MJ fans still hammer on that billions of people are listening to and dancing to a dead McJackson. Nope.
Michael Jackson appealed to 5 year olds that were into dancing the moonwalk. It figures that his kiddie crap would impress them. For everyone else, MTV played countless artists. Michael Jackson was just one act on MTV. He never owned the channel. Otherwise, bands like Def Leppard would not have broken big. MTV played a little of everything, but in the beginning, it was an outlet to expose new wave bands. Culture Club was a prime example. MTV played Boy George and his look, which was a visual presentation that people could not see on radio. Once Culture Club exploded, they were played on the radio too. The record companies loved MTV because it helped sell more records from artists that were not established acts. That was the whole point of MTV anyway.
Too bad Duran Duran shot “Hungry Like The Wolf” like a mini movie before “Billie Jean” and “Thriller.”
Eye laugh @ Wacko’s stupid claims. Videos were becoming an art form before McJackson even did one. You brain dead flock always repeat the same disproven Wacky McJackson fabrications over and over again, like they are going to stick.
Research the years the videos were made before Wacko finally did “Billie Jean.” Record companies were spending more on videos because MTV was helping break new talent.
Prince did it first. Eye laugh & laugh & laugh & laugh & laugh.
Donna Summer’s “She Works Hard For Money” and Tina Turner’s “What’s Love Got To Do With It” were both put out in 1984. Both videos were smash hits in heavy rotation on MTV.
Who do you think you’re fooling?
Run Dmc and Aerosmith “Walk This Way” broke Hip Hop on MTV.
Yep!!! Lolll & llloooll & llooooll @ your own helplessness! Ooo, yessss!! I’m laughing more.. of your ass kicked.. llloll Someone smart and honest exposed you as a hypocrite, liar and kick you ass… every time. Ooo Yep!
In the video for “Little Red Corvette” , Prince showed off his wild splits and dance moves. It was filmed on stage. The video is a classic. As far as Wacky McJackson claiming he made mini movie videos, Duran Duran beat him to it with “Hungry Like The Wolf.” Wacky was just full of hot air. His lies do not work, especially when we can reserch when these videos were made. All made before “Thriller.” was even thought of. Of course, Wacko wanted to steal Prince’s thunder. That is probably why Prince wanted to make “Purple Rain” a full length film. Prince broke ground for countless black artists, but just never patted himself on the back for it. We can figure out the truth.
Tina Turner made the “Private Dancer” album with the smash MTV video, “What’s Love Got To Do With It?” in 1984. But the notion that Wacky McJackson opened the doors for other black artists is simply a fairytale. It was Prince, but other black artists as well. MTV was designed to expose new wave acts, not disco or r&b. “Soul Train” was doing that. Neverthless, MTV had Prince on heavy rotation. “Little Red Corvette” was 1982. Besides that, eye remember The Pointer Sisters “Slow Hand” in 1981. It was a huge hit for them. MTV played “Pass The Dutchie” by Musical Youth and “Electric Avenue” by Eddie Grant in heavy rotation, but they were reggae type artists, which had a strong Bob Marley influence. It was totally wrong of Wacky to go after MTV for not playing him before “Billie Jean” because they had no new videos to play from the lazy woodpecker. Prince was played first, but Prince did not call himself a black artist?
McJackson used tricks and loopholes to blatantly lie?
It was because he knew his brain dead flock would repeat it for years as being the truth. However, it is just another Wacky McJackson manipulation ploy. The woodpecker started early on with his games.
Although videos by black artists like Tina Turner and Donna Summers were seen on MTV, they didn’t get that much airtime. MJ was the first black artist to have a video played in heavy rotation starting with Billie Jean. As a result, MTV started to incorporate more pop and R&B into their lineup This increased the visibility of other black music artists such as Prince and Whitney Houston and helped introduce hip-hop music, which had just begun to evolve.
Michael Jackson was the hottest pop star on the planet in nearly twenty years — and you could see him almost hourly on your favorite music video channel. While Michael and MTV were both absolutely on fire, the two weren’t competing with each other; they were helping each other. Some would turn on their televisions merely to catch “Billie Jean” and “Beat It,” and then find themselves mesmerized by the rest of what they were seeing on MTV. Others would tune in merely to watch MTV, and then find their jaws dropping at Michael’s videos. The synergy was phenomenal. It was as if a couple of supercharged rockets had somehow hooked up in midair, and now the two of them were hurtling toward the heavens, linked together and moving faster than anyone could ever have imagined.
After “Billie Jean” and “Beat It,” everything changed. Everything. With MTV spreading like never before and Michael demonstrating how mesmerizing those promo clips could be, music video was suddenly everywhere. It was as though, after eighteen months of methodically infecting a select audience in American cities, the video virus just said, to hell with it, and began infecting everyone. The entire culture had been exposed.
For MTV voters, it was all about the King of Pop. Voters singled out Michael Jackson as their “Most Iconic” for the medley of songs he sang in 1995. Jackson singing and dancing to “The Way You Make Me Feel,” “Scream,” “Beat It” and “Smooth Criminal” picked up 57 percent of the vote, beating the likes of Madonna with “Like a Virgin” in 1984 and Lady Gaga’s “Paparazzi” from 2009.
Best VMA Pop Performance
Fittingly, viewers gave the Best Pop Performance crown to the artist known as the “King of Pop.” Michael Jackson, who died in June 2009 from a drug overdose, got the nod for best pop performance with the same medley of hits that won him the “Most Iconic Performance” crown from viewers. Britney Spears, Justin Bieber, TLC and even his own sister, Janet Jackson, who performed a tribute to Michael the year he died, all came in far behind the “King of Pop” in this category too.
“1999” was the first album by a black artist, whose videos were played on MTV in heavy rotation. It is a 5 star rated album and is multi-platinum.
Of course, it is laughable that you would call Prince a nobody @ the time. Prince even toured to support the album. It was called, “1999 Triple Threat Tour” which started 11-11-82 and ended 4-14-83. November 1982 was before “Thriller” was even released, dumbo.
dumbo because nobody recognised prince on mtv as an artist
not my fault
he was a nobody to most people and certainly to mtv , its called average
it started wit the king of music videos King Michael
Justin Bieber is irrelevant to Prince. His hero is McJackson. It is because Bieber can not compose, produce, play one lone instrument and is merely a teen sensation to little girls that know nothing about real music, or how it is made. Lip syncing dancers are a dime a dozen, but there is only one Prince. Quality matters.
Bieber only beats McJackson.
You want to talk about all the Grammy awards Wacky did not deserve?
The artist that won the most Grammy awards happens to be Stevie Wonder, not Michael Jackson.
Those manipulations and lies do not hold water when Prince did videos for “1999” and “Little Red Corvette” in 1982. MTV did not play anything from “Off The Wall” because by then, it was an old album. McJackson’s first single was “The Girl Is Mine” with Paul McCartney, which was not a video. The album, “Thriller” was released in December, 1982. “Billie Jean” was after Prince, Musical Youth, Eddie Grant, all heavy rotation videos. All 3 artists are black. Not only that, but MTV also played videos from Tina Turner, Lionel Richie, Philip Bailey, Herbie Hancock and Jon Butcher Axis. So where did Michael Jackson’s lie that he was the first black artist on MTV come from?
