Early reports indicate that Percocet was involved. Apparently Prince didn't have a general anesthetic guy.

Whether performing on stage or dying of drugs, nobody did it like Mike. The Michael or Prince debate is now over.

Prince was better in my opinion. Prince was more original, better musician and better live performer.

And I very much doubt that Michael did, either. He was exonerated twice, despite a prosecuting team and global media army hellbent on a guilty verdict. If you really dig into the bones of their testimony, the reputations of the majority of his accusers are dubious at best.

As far as performers go, though, at his height Michael Jackson was as good as anyone who's ever taken a stage.

Yeah,. and OJ didn't turn two people into Pez dispensers.

Michael Jackson was an enormous talent. He was also a pedophile.

Personally, I just think Jackson was emotionally undeveloped, forever a child, so to speak, and extraordinarily naive.

I am not a Michael Jackson adulator, so this is just the viewpoint of an objective observer.

One guy was good at playing instruments, the other was good at dancing. As far as music talent goes, that sums it up there for me.

They both were pretty much nails live.

Prince was a significantly better composer/musician though.
