@thekiddz Ya I know but if the bar was set as high for male singers as it is for female singers, in Pop, Michael would just be good when compared to 'powerhouses' like Luther Vandross, Stevie Wonder, Brian Mcknight, James Brown, Ray Charles etc etc...It was his style & uniqueness none the less that made him stand above the rest though. And to the people going on about others 'hating on' Rihanna..I guess that's right. It's like she's so basic literally any pretty / attractive young woman with a half-decent voice & likeable personality could do what she does. Have y'all seen her cover of "Hero" ? L.O.L. Wiki says she was in a group before getting signed and according to her manager [Rihanna] "She stood out the most".......Either those other 2 must've been ugly or vocally tragic. #shade
