i LIKED Michael Jackson before he mad bad
hideouslyugly 12/09/2007
Say what you will about him...the guy CAN sing.
fb617556033 11/26/2007
He's actually not bad as a singer. I think he just made some bad choices as far as his PR goes. But the Jackson 5 was pretty good. And Thriller isn't bad either.
ILikePie 07/17/2007
Seeing as we're rating his music here and not his questionable lifestyle... five stars for sure.
pojo 03/27/2007

Jackson is a pervert
Ladygtx00 09/29/2006
Micheal truly was the greatest there ever was,But as for right now ummm well let me just say the brother has some serious issues. There will never will be another micheal of Yester years in this time frame.
bassman44113 09/19/2006
As a musician, the man is great! As a man, he's a mess! A tragic life. If he wasnt so wealthy, he would be in jail or a mental institution. take your pick.
Limpin' Trenchfoot 07/27/2006
Ignoring the obvious.. ahem...issues, he was pretty good at what he did, until his notorious performance of Earth Song at the BRITS, with his Jesus Christ pose ((c)Soundgarden. Mind you, he gets a lot more credit than he deserves, especially for Thriller and Off the Wall. 5 of the 9 tracks on Thriller were written by others including the title track, written by Rod Temperton. Then there was that Quincy Jones production that really was the icing on the cake. On Off the Wall, Jacko only wrote 3 of the 10 tracks and again the Jones production gave it its shine.

While we all know he has personal issues, no one can deny his dancing and singing ability. A true performer in every sense.
kingguiness 06/30/2006
A gifted musical and creative individual who bridged the color gap with Thriller. His real life issues are very sad.
Penwah 04/02/2006
He's always been one of my favorite musicians - talented beyond belief. At first I was willing to bypass the legal issues, having no idea whether he was innocent or guilty. I still don't know, but the bizarreness was too much and got in the way.

What ever happened to his monkey, did he ever stop spanking it

covax 02/02/2006
One of my ALL TIME favorite musicians and probably the GREATEST of all time along with Jimi Hendrix. What he did with Triller was amazing!! I dont give a dam about the trial cases and all that crap whether he was innocent or not. I just love the guy as a musician.
gamerman 02/01/2006
He was a pretty good looking guy in the 80's, Michael why did you destroy yourself? I can't believe he was found innocent of all charges. Come on people, all of those kids couldn't have been lying. This is a very sick man.
musicprof 12/31/2005
Nothing can be said good of this guy. Nothing.
clarermo 12/12/2005
A talented alien, but he has never believed in himself.
NekoFaust 10/03/2005
Before he spiraled into disturbingness,he was a marvelous singer with great talent.And,in my opinion,he was quite handsome. This was before he become the third gender.Before he became a boy-hungry creep. In short,his current image makes children cry and several others become mentally disturbed. He /is/ guilty.An innocent man in his position would /never/ open a theme park on his property only so he could invite young boys to come to his room and 'play' with him. kthxbi
meghangrove 09/30/2005
King of pop. He may be a weirdo but talent wise nobody else comes close.
rjy 09/28/2005
I'll give him 4 stars for the good music he makes, forget everything else.
sabasimba 06/20/2005
Good singer, bad person.
MTiger_87 06/15/2005
Changed the face of pop music, BUT, he's a MAJOR FREAK and pedophile. A great career gone horribly wrong.
PlanetaryGear 06/13/2005
Not Guilty? Boy, I guess we were all wrong about this sick twisted freak, who likes sleeping with boys, who settled for millions with a previous accuser!....This calls for a celebration, 'Jesus Juice' for everyone!!
allknowingknow itall 05/16/2005
Musical genius gone wrong. He was cute when he was a little kid sining the 'Abc' song and such. But then he grew up to a pedifile who keeps changing his face to try to look like a barbie doll, but then part of it falls off and now hes a spinix, wouln't let a kid near him with a 20 foot pole.
caligula 04/28/2005
This rating is based on him as an artist. Everything up to and including Thriller was A+. It was downhill after that. I didn't like Bad or any of the later albums. Clearly a very disturbed person, but no one can deny his talent.
KC2DC 04/19/2005
Absolute freakazoid! The guy should be castrated, then drawn and quartered. I know he is technically innocent until proven guilty but come on. This seems to be a reoccuring problem w/ him. I remember watching the Martin Brashir documentary about him. He needs major help and therapy and to stay away from children. I'm sorry, anyone who thinks sleeping w/ children should be a common thing has problems. I currently don't have kids, but if some strange guy who looks like a woman wanted my kids to sleep over, much less sleep in his bed has a serious problem. If it were anyone else besides Jacko, then he'd be dragged out in the street and beaten. Harming and defiling a child is inexcusable. I just think what if that was my kid or niece or nephew... The courts and jury will decide Jackson's fate... The guy honestly thinks he's Peter Pan, according to his statement made on the 2003 documentary. He's got problems.
ihateorange 04/10/2005
The product of a warped environment. This guy is extremely sick.
X Factor Z 04/06/2005
He became very hot in the 80s, but I always thought that his talent was just all flash, and smoke and mirrors. Took advantage of the early video age,(and probably other things as well). I used to think his dad castrated him so he could keep singing like a girl!
37102002 04/03/2005
Mike was the man, back when he was still a black man. Now that he is a white woman, yuk. Thriller and Off the Wall were off the hook.
Lexia 03/29/2005
4 stars because he is a genius, but missing a star for being a total pedophile.
K_Man414 03/28/2005
I am giving him a one considering that it is inappropiate for a grown man to sleep with little boys. Period. Whether or not he molested them, it is up for the jury to decide. I hope he did not commit this heinous act because that would be terrible for the kids who were allegedly molested. It angers and sickens me when hardcore MJ fans mail death threats to the accuser(who has cancer) and no child with cancer should have to tolerate with that.
theoneandonlym ami 03/20/2005
he's sick.. needs some serious help.
Jimmie 03/11/2005
The verdicts possible at his trial are(1) a lunatic slept with young boys and molested them or (2) a lunatic slept with young boys and didn't molest them.
Giacomo McDougall 03/11/2005
There should be a zero for people like Michael Jackson. The nicest thing I can say about him is that if he is in fact innocent of the charges and rumors of pedophilia levied against him, he seems to be a very nice, if also very weird, 'man'. ** As far as his 'music' is concerned, he is undoubtedly the single most overrated performer of all time, and Thriller is without question the most overrated album of all time. ** I think the reason(s) Thriller was such a tremendous commercial success is due to a number of factors, none of which has to do with the quality of the music: **(1)** Aggressive media promotion and heavy air support. Let's face it folks, almost any song/album is guaranteed to be a hit if it is played often enough, and at the time Michael Jackson had sufficient influence to get this album played 24/7. **(2)** The timing. It was released late in 1982 and accompanied by several very well produced (if cheesy as all hell), highly publicized music videos at a time when MTV and music videos were new and people were fascinated by them. **(3)** He was still for many people the beloved little child they had grown up with or else watched grow up on TV. **(4)** He shrewdly invited guest performers from other genres to perform on the album (most notably Eddie Van Halen), providing a huge potential for crossover sales. ** As for the music itself, there are no profound lyrics here, no pretty melodies, no memorable licks - it is simply run of the mill dance pop with shallow romantic lyrics. There is no song on this album which couldn't have been on any other much less heralded dance pop album of the time. ** I am convinced that most people who have kind words for Thriller, or who say things like gee, why doesn't Michael Jackson make great music anymore? are not thinking for themselves, but mindlessly repeating what they have heard others say. ** The fact is, the tracks from Thriller are more or less interchangeable with the tracks from subsequent albums such as 'Bad' and 'Dangerous' and beyond, and anyone who says they 'love Thriller' but can't get into his later albums is, in my opinion, simply mindlessly regurgitating the media's 'party line' regarding Michael.

Great talent but a SICK human being. What a waste.
Chrissy_c_1888 02/19/2005
For micheal jackson the entertainer i would give as many stars as i could but for the micheal jackson off the stage with all the paedophile sh*t i would give as low as the stars as i could- so i went for the happy median 3. Its a sad thing to say and it may sound stupid but dont u think that if micheal jackson died just after his successful career that he would be a hero- much bigger than elvis or anyone ever could have been. Personally, for me micheal jackson was an unbelievable entertainer and its a shame his dad, who i feel is just as guilty as micheal, for abusing his kids because no matter how hateful and resentful some RIAers are against the pedo micheal(and probably rightly so) ppl will have to face up to the fact that he wasnt born like this - he was changed into it.(btw i dont think micheal shood b killed)
lwyr2b 02/16/2005
Unfortunately there isnt a zero here. I never did get the obsession with Michael Jackson even when Thriller was hot. Now that he is being implicated in a child molestion case everyone is acting as if he just went weird last week. I don't know why everyone refuses to acknowlegde that he has been WAY out there for a long time. Trying to buy the elephant mans bones, sleeping in a sleep dep tank because of what he claims were sinus problems (they make meds for that), having surgery after surgery on his nose so that he could sing better (that might explain the drop in music, you're supposed to sing through your mouth michael) and now being tried in not one but two sex crimes. Yet everyone wants to believe he is innocent or at the very least that he had a reason (his fathers abuse, his family being weird, lost childhood, whatever)but if someone who was not a celebrity was charged with the same crimes we would all want to see them hang. What makes him any better than any other human? Nothing, obviously he has committed so kind of crime or it wouldn't have gone off the prosecutors desk. This isnt the 1800's we have laws that governments must follow in order to get a search warrant and to get an arrest warrant. As for the OJ comment in someones earlier post, you dont try to leave the country with $10,000 cash and a fake ID if youre innocent.
BILLIEJEAN 02/01/2005
YA'LL SHOULD STOP HATIN'
fabcheetah 01/28/2005
I give him 5 stars for the 70's &80's and 1 for everything since. Balance that out and it's a 3. Concerning his personal life, I should give him none. His behavior was disgusting and makes me want to vomit. Like Arnold said, where these's smoke, there's fire. At least Arnold owned up to his actions, that were with adults. Oj proved that with enough money, you can get away with murder. I sure hope that MJ doesn't show us that with enough money you can get away with child molestation. Sick. I hope that when he goes to jail, some big bruiser molests him the same way he did those young children.
dorsett33 01/25/2005
when he is not trying to mud wrestle with the boyz he is the best entertainer EVER.
Beelzebub 12/06/2004
I'm sweating like Michael Jackson at a Boy Scout Jamboree.
james123 09/23/2004
too bad about Mike. He *was* such a talent.
JrJr64 08/12/2004
Michael Jackson just plain sucks! He has had so many plastic surgeries that you could prolly melt his face with a torch and then see what he really looks like? lol
dirt_devil_003 07/30/2004
on the bottom of my list- down there alongside eminem.they both suck. jacksons got so much plastic surgery done to his nose its a miracle that he can breath out of it. dont like his music either.
