What exactly has Justin Bieber accomplished to take the throne as the new King of Pop?

Michael Joseph Jackson took over 40 years to perfect his craft.

He has been singing since age 5.

There was no youtube to be discovered on then.

He has given over 300M to charity

He earned the respect of the entire music industry by the age of 25.

He has performed all over the world before an average crowd of 70,000.

He has been through diversity, some of which many of us would have consumed to, but he came back out on top.

What has Justin done to rival that?

Nothing against Justin, perhaps his fame will grow in epic proportions as he gets older. But what has he done NOW to garner that title from his loyal fan(s)?

Update:

Justin's alleged future wife-- keep your answer in order!

I will report you with the quickness..

I want actual facts, not asinine rhetoric.

    Nothing. Michael will always have it. There may be new Kings of Pop out their but they won't take the original throne ever.

    You go girl!!

    You said it - right then and there in your first line - 40 years to perfect his craft. I'd have never heard of his Justin guy if it wasn't for the crazy fan on here. And I'm sure two thirds of the music listening world haven't either.

    Come of it - not even people like JT or Kanye or Usher are a patch on MJ so this Justin Bieber... Just no *shakes head in disgust*.

    You can tell that JB fan hasn't got a clue what she's talking about - there are adults on here defending Michael's name. And silly little band? The Jacksons were revolutionary. This kid clearly doesn't get that. I hope you grows up to appreciate decent music, not worshipping this 15 year old kid who is not and never will never be as talented as a single hair on Michael's head. 'Nuff said.

    Anyways, have a good weekend :) xx

    Source(s): Justin Bieber will be forgetten in a few months or so. Michael has survived as a household trophy name for 40 years - that ain't about to change now.

    You're right!!

    I didn't even know anyone called him that!

    I mean, come on, Justin Bieber? The new King of Pop? Not in a million years. And I'll tell you why I think that (that's just my opinion btw). He's done nothing YET and I highly doubt he ever will do something that will make him half as successful, famous, talented (etc.) as Michael. Btw I'm kinda sick of all the girls who think they'll marry him. Seriously, most of his fans think they will marry him! wth? x) His music lacks originality, it's absolutely nothing special and I doubt it will ever be. And he might be kinda cute... but I know guys who are way better looking. I mean, I don't have anything against him I'm just saying what I think. He's overrated. And even IF let's say MAYBE he will be very famous and successful... I'll always think Michael is better.

    Obviously he's new to music. Obviously he's younger than MJ. But he does as many charaties as he can- stop targeting him as if he was a bad person!!

    Justin has a great respect for MJ, and has NEVER said he's the new "king of pop". Whatever fans say, ignore it! So many other artists have been inspired by MJ- I never see questions bashing them! It is very possible to be a fan of both artists- and just as people hate haters bashing on MJ, don't do it to others. Talk about hypocrites! I understand MJ is a king, and that will forever be the truth, but opinions are opinions and people need to get over it!

    Whoever said Justin Beiber is the new King Of Pop needs to get their head checked. Justin is a teen sensation, not a music icon of any sort.

    King Of Pop? No, that's Michael's title.

    King Of BS? Yeah, that suits him a lot.

    No one will ever take over Michael's title. They can only wish to do so. No one will ever be the next Michael Jackson. No one will be able to sing as good as him nor dance nor be as caring as him. They have to face the facts and get over themselves.

    I've seen justin's videos and music since I'm that open minded.

    And he isn't even talented

    first off his voice is dubbed (machines are making his voice sound all great)

    he's just one of those techno pop singers hoppin around mtv.

    Michael jackson, you just knew he was going to be successful,

    I mean Michael jackson would perform at age 10 like he was a 30 year old.

    and his vocals were amazing how he'd sing like he knew about heartbreak.

    Please..Justin bieber?

    no.

    i mean he was that amazing.

  • justin bieber king of pop hahaha yeah and i'm the queen of england

    justin bieber will never be the king of pop and those who think he will are living in la la land

    justin bieber's future wife is living in denail. i think its time someone told her that justin bieber cant sing

    michael jackson became the king of pop because his music apealed to people of all ages, all nationalities and both sexes. he knocked down the racial barrier and taught us that it doesnt matter if you're black or white and that we are all equal

    justin biebers music only appeals to 12 and 13 year old teeny boppers

    seriously can you picture our parents listening to justin's music,, absolutely not! the only ones who will buy his cds are little girls

  • 1 decade ago

    He has done absolutely nothing.

    Michael is the King, Long Live The KING. There will never be a new King.
