You don't hear his music in other media because he didn't want his songs being cheapened and overly commercialized. Prince was notoriously protective of his music.Stevie has more classics than prince & his music is heard through out commercials, television shows, movies, etc.
It's not even really debatable.
That might have been an exaggeration. But dude is right that's Stevie doesn't belong in this discussion. It's always Prince and MJ. Nobody mentions Stevie with them. It's not due to lack of musicianship.
What do you think it is?

Stevie made better music.

Prince isn't just a "rock guy," he's a multi-instrumentalist capable of making music in almost any genre out there. It's Michael Jackson who doesn't deserve to be compared to Prince. He was an entertainer--Prince was a true musical auteur.
Point me to a MJ album solely done by him........ instruments, vocals, producing, etc.
Prince was G.O.A.T. to do it, period. One of the greatest musical geniuses to be in the booth.
Songs in the Key of Life and Innervisions all day my guy
How about this Michael Jackson fans, Ray Charles showed Quincy Jones how to make music who went on to produce those beloved Michael Jackson albums, so without Ray Charles there is no off the wall, thriller, and bad.
Prince is a real musical genius, while Michael Jackson can sing really good and dance, but he's the king of pop for a reason. His music is sinple, its for little kids and young adults, older black people wasn't playing his music like that.
I can't.
