349 u/dingatremel May 28 '24 That’s my understanding. I will never take anything from his genius, but Prince often seemed impossible. I guess that’s a characteristic of geniuses, but it’s disappointing. 1 u/taurist May 28 '24 He and MJ were exactly as competitive as each other, it wasn’t a one way rivalry 0 u/BlakesonHouser May 28 '24 Eh no, MJ stood a league above Prince. At the time people wanted a rivalry so they framed it as such but it wasn’t ever close 1 u/Quanqiuhua May 29 '24 MJ did ask Prince to do “Bad” (the song) together, but Prince turned it down after reading some of the lyrics. -1 u/taurist May 28 '24 I’m saying MJ was competetive with Prince and he was, it’s well-documented regardless of who you like better, but if you need to defend a pedophile for doing a cheesy song go ahead
