Last week, Tank stirred up significant controversy during his appearance on Stephen A. Smith’s talk show by making a bold claim about Chris Brown. He argued that Brown surpasses the legendary Michael Jackson in various aspects, including production, songwriting, singing, and dancing. This comparison left many viewers outraged, with most insisting that it’s not even a close call.
The backlash was so intense that it prompted a response from Chris Brown himself. He took to his Instagram Story yesterday to share a clip from an old interview where he addressed the comparisons to Jackson. In the video, Brown humbly dismisses the notion that he could ever compete with the King of Pop, expressing his deep respect and admiration for Jackson.

“That’s cap. I stay the hell out of it [the debate],” Brown says in the clip. “My personal take is that I wouldn’t even be breathing or able to sing a song if that man didn’t exist. I don’t know if they look at it like a Jordan and Kobe thing, but I can’t even look at it—he’s lightyears ahead. There is no competing with him, hell no. I’ve got shrines of this man hanging up at my house. Hell nah, I’m not better than Michael Jackson.” Brown’s response clearly aligns with public opinion, as he has no issue giving credit where it’s due.
