A lot of people didn’t like Tank’s showing on Stephen A. Smith’s talk show last week. At one point in the show, he said that Chris Brown is a better artist than Michael Jackson, who is known as the “King of Pop.” He said Breezy is better than MJ at making music, writing songs, singing, dancing, and other things. People were furious with the bold take and insisted that it’s not even close.

Even Brown responded to what he said. Yesterday, he shared a clip from an old conversation on his Instagram Story. He talks about how he feels about being compared to MJ and says that there’s no competition. He also said that he really cares about the late singer’s music and doesn’t think he’s better than him.

“That’s a cap.” I’m not involved in the argument at all. He says in the video, “My personal view is that I wouldn’t even be breathing or be able to sing a song if that man didn’t exist.” “So, I don’t know if they see it as a Jordan vs. Kobe thing, but I can’t even look at it because he’s so much better.” There’s no way to beat him, no way. There are statues of this man all over my house. “No way, I’m not better than Michael Jackson.” In this fight, it’s clear that Brown is on the side of the majority, and he doesn’t mind giving credit where credit is due.
