Dude has three students, 2 are the greatest ever and the other isnt even a person

The only person who has a solidified position on mt Olympus without exception is Michael jackson. His music trajectory is great beyond comprehension

Marley is not fukking with Prince

I haven't heard the whole discography for Prince yet. MJ up there for sure but might be a notch below imo. MJ definitely #1 entertainer.

Don't sleep on Marley. Catalogue is A1 especially catch a fire - kaya. That's like 6 albums of fire back to back

> without these people there's no "Japanese jazz" or citypop. There's a reason why CACs love citypop. It's their way of enjoying a specific brand of jazz fusion without the blackness.

Dope list. I'll add 70's Kool and the Gang and Fred Wesley and the JBs as major influences if we're talking straight instrumentals
