mj caught people with the dance moves and flashy presentation
as it's been said he's the goat performance artist
but a musical mind like prince is just as impressive even though most would miss it

in a way they are two halves that would make one perfect artist

If you think all Stevie did was sing you need to recheck his résumé.:ufdup:
what? he sings and plays the keyboard. maybe he writes his songs too but they're trash so who cares? it is what it is, he is sittin there playin the keyboard and waving his fukking head around like a retard, he isn't on prince or michael's level.

Did you just say Stevie Wonder is trash?

My heart can't take the fukkery in this thread. I'm legit having heart palpitations.

Stevie can play multiple instruments himself.

Stevie's one of the GOAT vocalists & songwriters of all time.

Commercially he's one of the most decorated artists in music history.

Musically he's more relevant than prince.

i won't say they're trash, but stevie wonder still doesn't belong in this convo. he does have some good songs, actually, more than prince does imo.

He doesn't belong in the convo because he lacked Prince's and MJ's crossover appeal. But Stevie has classics for days and days and days and days. His musicianship is top tier.

Y'all are doing way too much in this thread. :snoop:

Stevie has more classics than prince & his music is heard through out commercials, television shows, movies, etc.

It's not even really debatable.

lol, turnin these dudes against each other

Stevie OWNED the Grammy Awards for 3 years straight in the 1970s......during time when some of the most creative music ever was being put out

How can you say he didn't have the crossover appeal of MJ or Prince? During that run, he was probably the most popular American musician.....and an international star.
