SINY!!
I would argue that Bruno Mars is probably even more talented than MJ. He sings better and is an overall better vocalist. MJ got the moves and is obviously a better dancer but that's where it stops. Bruno can dance, sing, write, plays a couple instruments and is a hell of a performer. MJ had people writing his songs and choreographing his dances/performances.

Its been well documented (a book by MJs engineer Bruce Swedien) that MJ was very hands on/involved in the creative process when it came to his music. He couldn't play the instruments sure, but he had an ear like say a Dr. Dre, or a Kanye.....where he knew what he wanted sonically.

We’ve had plenty of artists as talented as and more talented as Michael.

But Michael could put it together in a complete package and had a knack for picking the right team and right music. Also had an incredible sense of what works musically AND visually. He had presence.
