Justin Bieber Vs. Michael Jackson

Is Justin Bieber actually being compared to Michael Jackson? Wow. I have nothing against Justin Bieber, or anything for Michael Jackson, however, that’s a big comparison that people are making.

For starters, Justin Bieber is a newcomer. He is talented, and therefore has accomplished many things for his age (Ex. He performed for President Barack Obama). Nonetheless, he’s not as gifted or experienced as Michael Jackson.

To make my point even more clear, below are a few comparisons of their accomplishments.

Bieber was a presenter at the 52nd Grammy Awards on January 31, 2010.

He was invited to be a vocalist for the remake of We are the World for its 25th anniversary to benefit Haiti.

Michael has been inducted twelve times in the Music Hall of Fame, more than any other act

He’s in Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice

Other Achievements include thirteen Guinness World Records (more than any other artist)

15 Grammy awards (including the Living Legend Award and the Lifetime Achievement Award)

26 AMerican Music awards (more than any other artist)

17 number one singles in the US

He also has estimated global sales of over 780 million records, making him one of the best-selling recording artist ever


As you can see, Michael Jackson has broken more marvelous records and accomplishments than Bieber. However, you have to take note that MJ is now died and Beiber only just turned 16. Either way, I personally believe that some day, someone will surpass MJ’s accomplishments, but it’s not Justin Beiber. He hasn’t done enough in his short career to earn the title, King of Pop.
