Friends is a bit of an exaggeration but they actually liked and respected each other contrary to the media feud that was perpetuated. There was a friendly rivalry between the two but they really admired each other.
MJ did attend a few of Prince shows and Prince covers a lot of MJ/Jackson 5 material in his live shows.
MJ really wanted to work with Prince on the BAD album but Prince declined and said that it would be a hit record without him. They had a few meetings, played some ping pong and chatted it up.
Both are legends but we already know who the KANG is!
