With the battle between the King of Pop family of Michael Jackson , and Rolling Stone Magazine, it’s time to rank the all time best boy bands. We discovered TWO top boybands from Boston that topped Rolling Stone’s list.
The Real King Of Pop
Michael Jackson is known as the true King of Pop. He is still the best selling single artist of all time, even surpassing Elvis. The CSPC, the Commensure Sales To Popularity Concept, reports Michael Jackson is the number one single artist. The Beatles, are the number one group.
Controversy
Rolling Stone Magazine stepped in it today, with their Harry Styles cover, calling him The New King Of Pop. Consequently the Jackson family fired back hard: (from musictimes.com)
According to Pop Crave, after the newspaper tweeted the cover of their October/November edition featuring the former One Direction member on Monday, the “Thriller” hitmaker’s nephew Taj Jackson There is no new King of Pop. You don’t own the title @RollingStone, and you didn’t earn it, my uncle did. Decades of dedication and sacrifice. The title has been retired. No disrespect to @Harry_Styles, he’s mega talented. Give him his own unique title. https://t.co/td6SSSVkfX
Harry wore a white fur stole with pink sequin shorts on the cover of Rolling Stone while holding a birthday cake with lighted candles.
Taj, (MJ’s nephew) on the other hand, was not pleased and responded in the comments area, saying, “There is no new King of Pop.”
“You didn’t own or earn the title, @RollingStone; my uncle did-decades of work and sacrifice,” the 49-year-old said.
“The title is no longer in use. No offense to @Harry Styles; he’s a huge talent. Give him his own title.”
Taj is the eldest child of Tito Jackson, Michael’s infamous older sibling. Dee Dee Martes, Taj’s mother, died in a drowning accident in 1994.
Many of Taj’s fans appeared to agree with him since they feel Harry Styles is not meant to be in the same league or world as the “Billie Jean” singer.
