I just listened to Michael Jackson for the first time in the last three years . . .

[I Self Lord & Master]

I take al green over Curtis

I said that to my daddy n ensuing convo got to the point where my uncle had to separate us

2 of my favorites but Al Green was a 1 trick pony type artist. All he did was love songs (he may be the best ever at it tho)

Curtis did the love songs, street shit, & political topics. He was way more diverse.

I drew a blank first coming In here but if it's like that Isaac Hayes dragging Curtis mayfield

Isaac vocally is not in the same league, dont shoot at the same baskets as curtis.

That music though...his bands took you around the universe n back to the block!

Sometimes you don't need no words!

Just to break up the regular names being talked about.

Overall impact and star power those listed and talked are better but not to many could actually sing better than this man

 

[TheGOAT]

Curtis last album before his death he recorded paralyzed in bed on his back. He had to punch in all the lines 1 by 1 (like eazy did in the nwa movie)

Oh So Beautiful


New World Order


Here But Im Gone

James Brown didn't have any lyrics for real if folks really paid attention.

His band just had the party jumpin and he did enough on the mic.

For those of ya'll that say Stevie only got 2 or 3 classics, ALL of his albums are classics.

He had an album in 1985 called In Square Circle. I remember my pops bought it when it came out. Every song on that album is a banger.

Then he had another album in 2005 called A Time To Love that's also banging from front to back. My brother put me on to that one.

My point is that Stevie has a lot of albums that went under the radar that bang from front to back.

Anyway, here's my top 10 Stevie tracks;

1. Do I Do (Stevie and Dizzy Gillespie!!)

2. That Girl

3. Living For The City

4. Isn't She Lovely

5. Love Light In Flight

6. Sir Duke

7. As

8. Skeletons

9. Jungle Fever

10. Too High

@TheGOAT

1st week cop back when it dropped! Very good album and I admired the courage and strength it took to complete it.

Had to throw MJ in there b/c ironically it was stacked very close to Mr. Mayfield's cd.

Its all good.

Curtis & his fam is paid.

In an era when most black artists were being ripped off by labels Curtis was 1 or the 1st black artists to start his own label in 1968.

I think Marvin got the best Voice

Stevie with the deepest catalogue

N Michael with the greatest package....a musician changed tv

But James got the best party jams, idk

James is The God Father.... That nigga in my eyes, is right up there with Beethoven, and all them muthafuckas these cacs dick ride...

Mike,Prince,Stevie, Marvin, Issac, Bill, George, Bootsie, Jimi, Ronald,Al

all ate from the tree of the GodFather
