Most of his songs sound very lame to me nowadays. There are also old rock bands like KISS, and Poison, who thanks to their imagery, still have their fan base that considers them icons, but to me they are just clowns.
The only current mainstream artist that I would personally consider a future legend is Kanye West. To me he is also a lot more musically talented than MJ, and he doesn't rely on imagery or dancing and grabbing his crotch in order to impress people like MJ, Kiss, and Poison do. Kanye actually has quality music to back it up.

Ha I thought you were talking about Mick Jagger when you said MJ.....
Kanye has the music to back it up? Man I saw that fool on Saturday Night Live and if that is an example of having music to back it up I'm sticking with those clowns Kiss.
