2 pretty big categories I'd say.

MJ was the better singer and performer, and Madonna the better marketer.
True. And of that three I'd say Prince and Madonna are still relevant. MJ's music was past its use by date five years after it was released. Try listening to Thriller these days. It's not easy.
