Michael Said Jackie Wilson , James Brown, Gene Kelly, Fred Astaire, top influences Jackie is spot on...Top Influencer...God Bless Michael for paying Jackie’s Funeral expenses In 1984...👑👑Two Kings...
I learned something new every day I never knew Jackie Wilson had a bigger influence on Michael Jackson's stage presence. I can clearly see where Michael get his footwork from.
You are absolutely correct, Michael always credited Jackie as one of his top influences and this video was my way of reminding people of this fact. Also if you pay close attention to Jackie's facial expressions (winks, flashy smile, lip curls) Michael clearly borrowed his stage Charisma as well. Thank you for your feedback 🙏🏽💯 feel free to ask any other questions.
@@kareemeverison perhaps? However if you pay attention James Brown spinned backwards and Michael spinned forwards just like Jackie, also as a singer Michael's vocal technique especially in his childhood ballads were clearly patterned after Jackie as Berry Gordy said himself that Jackie set the standard that he would expect every singer to meet.
Amen and much Respect to these two Magnificent Innovators.. Rest Peacefully!! 🎼🌹🎼 Jackie Wilson and Michael Jackson.. Thanks 🙏♥️ 👑👏🎶 A gift to the World of Music 🎶
You are most welcome 🙂 Jackie is CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED. He gifted the world with the most extraordinary voice to ever touch a microphone and his phenomenal dancing ability is clear in my video. It is my honor to keep his legacy alive 🙏🏼💯
You are most welcome! I am happy to show the world that the great Jackie Wilson was one of Michael's greatest teachers, you should check out his music! Let me know if you need a list of recommendations? Take care.
@@isiano10 Yes I was listening to The Ultimate Jackie Wilson and have taken a liking to Am I the Man, To Be loved, Your Love keeps Lifting me higher, Baby Work Out which probably reminds him of his boxing days. But I know he has countless more amazing-sounding songs so I am open to your recommendations.

Wow, I’ve always seen the James Brown influence in Michael’s dancing, but this video out in perspective how much he was also inspired by Jackie Wilson. I definitely learned from this video
@@leslieabrams5167 Elvis was influenced by African American artist like Roy Hamilton, Jackie Wilson and Chuck Berry. Later on when he became the poster boy of rock and roll African American artist started to borrow from him as well since mainstream America proved that no matter how exceptionally talented the aforementioned artist were they would still give Elvis first preference. ...
@@leslieabrams5167umm no. Elvis is the king of stealing. African Americans were far more talented than him. He was just the pretty white face for white america
Jackie Wilson's also known for his knee drops or basically, dropping to the ground. Michael really did get it from Jackie. Michael also says he was influenced by Fred Astaire but I've never heard him mention Bob Fosse. The Billie Jean dance he did on his concerts resembles the A Snake in the Grass by Bob Fosse in The Little Prince
😁 Michael showed Jackie a lot of love! he always credited him and I believe he contributed financially toward his funeral in 1984. I can picture them both having a great time in heaven's choir 😇
Man Michael Jackson might not be the best teacher but he's definitely the best learner i ever seen R.I.P. James Brown, Michael Jackson & Jacky Wilson ♥️
Michael was good at both singing and dancing. Jackie was great at singing and dancing. Michaels dancing was more mechanical, Jackie just plain could dance. Jackie topped Michael in vocals, his voice was stronger.
@@isiano10 Personally I wouldn't call it soul, more of the style that was in at the time. I think of soul as in the soul train dancers, JB, Jackie, Rerun,etc
@@ww8407 You Crazy! MJ stole his style and tried to hit the notes Jackie whispered. You young. Don't know no better. MJ also stole Elvis giro dance. But MJ could sing. But not as good or range as Jackie. Both are legendary singers.
@@jasonlindsey9946 Agree to disagree. To me MJ is up there with Ray Charles and Marvin Gaye as the greatest singers in history. Jackie Wilson is nowhere near that trio.
First of all I LOVE Stevie! He is a musical genius that comes along one in several life times, however Jackie was an established singer way before Stevie. So it's likely that Stevie also looked up to JW as well
Jackie Wilson and James Brown as a tag team. Who could beat them? Jackie had the far superior voice and look but James was by far the better Dancer and innovator. But combined together..unstoppable. They are up against Prince and MJ in Heaven right now.
@@nathaniel8328 their styles were different Jackie's dancing was smooth, James was explosive, even as the creator of this video, I can understand why some would consider James the more entertaining/ better Dancer.
@@isiano10 I do agree with you even though James was a good dancer. Watching Jackie's performances blows me away. Its like Jackie got skates on his feet.
Even prince was much better than jacko, prince was an allround talent, he could do anything, he could play almost any instrument,prince was a true musician,
Really even tho Jackie is singing nobody mention the segregated show and audience!! He had black back up singers but weren’t good enough to dance with him. A bunch of No rhythm white who couldn’t dance , dance behind him sickening
Would love a Jackie Wilson biopic
The world NEEDS that 🙌🏼💯🔥🎶👑
I’m working on it
@@aamia3769 wow, foreal!?
@@isiano10 yes, it’s still in pre-production. So, it could take a while before it’s in production.

What do you mean by cold

Damn, he was the man. This man basically fathered Michael Jackson and Elvis
Jackie was the man! he laid the foundation for Bruno Mars as well as many more
you know who else was "influenced" by Jackie Wilson...Elvis Presley.
Jackie and Elvis were best friends.. but I thought Jackie was influenced by Elvis..
@@leslieabrams5167 Elvis was influenced by African American artist like Roy Hamilton, Jackie Wilson and Chuck Berry.

Yes of course elvis the white bad man ,i have to laugh, you can not have talent if you are white?
Thanks for mentioning Elvis…They both thought highly of each other

Awesome thanks for posting this video!!
You are very welcome! I hope that you enjoyed it 🙂
Jackie Wilson two feet little hop is very similar to what Michael Jackson did during his performances of smooth criminal during his world tours
You are absolutely right my friend! He also did it in the you rock my world video, you have good eyes 🙌🏼
My mother and father use to tell me stories about Jackie Wilson and James brown .
Two of the most talented brothers to ever touch the stage 🙌🏼👑🔥
Michael owe Jackie some royalty checks for those dance moves.
😁 Michael showed Jackie a lot of love! he always credited him and I believe he contributed financially toward his funeral in 1984. I can picture them both having a great time in heaven's choir 😇

Not at all. MJ perfected those moves
Jackie is a monumental legend
Agreed! Jackie was a once in a lifetime talent!

Michael Jackson’s hee-hee actually came from Stevie Wonder in his “Maybe Your Baby”
the both lived 50 years
Mj King of pop
I heard Michael got the Hee hee from Stevie Wonder..but its hard to not hear the comparison
Michael was good at both singing and dancing. Jackie was great at singing and dancing. Michaels dancing was more mechanical, Jackie just plain could dance. Jackie topped Michael in vocals, his voice was stronger.

@@isiano10 Personally I wouldn't call it soul, more of the style that was in at the time. I think of soul as in the soul train dancers, JB, Jackie, Rerun,etc

why is Jackson dressed like that?
Yo dog you're way off on so much of this.

Even prince was much better than jacko, prince was an allround talent, he could do anything, he could play almost any instrument,prince was a true musician,
They were both incredibly gifted entertainers. Why is it always about being better than somebody?
@@j.i.r608 one was an entertainer, the other the most complete musician, is a difference, hahahaha
Mike was the better performer and music maker
Thanks for the laugh
Jacko has no buisiness there ,he was an overrated clown
I'm sorry you feel this way, but of course you are entitled to your opinion
He was not overrated at all. Keeping being a racist pos, using that disgusting name called 'jacko'. 🖕🖕
Really even tho Jackie is singing nobody mention the segregated show and audience!! He had black back up singers but weren’t good enough to dance with him. A bunch of No rhythm white who couldn’t dance , dance behind him sickening
50% wrong
How so?
