They're both incredible but I've loved Prince more. His music just hits me better.
But MJ would win a dance off.

Prince wrote every song on his first album, played all the instruments, recorded every part himself.
MJ's music is good, but there's just no question who was more talented.

Prince in a walk if we're talking musical genius
MJ had insane talent and charisma, but he wasn't nearly as involved in the making of his work as Prince was

All things considered, it's probably Prince, but Michael Jackson was the better singer a million times over.

Michael Jackson by leaps and bounds.
Prince was a better musician but his music is worse

I absolutely prefer MJ over Prince, but if we're talking about genius level, you have to go with Prince.

He was a great musician but I've got to be honest his lyrics never meant anything to me at all and the production was so much worse than Jackson.
Granted Jacksons lyrics werent great either.

Lyrical content is too subjective, really.
What one person finds brilliant, another finds ridiculous.

I wouldn't label either one of them a genius. If I have to decide which one is closer to being a genius I would select Prince.
