both imo

most people will remember the freak show circus that he became over the past 15 years or so (especially the younger generation that dont remember the 70s or 80s Jackson)

but before his downward spiral, Michael Jackson produced some brilliant records and brilliant songs. He was the most successful artist of all time. It's impossible to forget the music, especially when you consider so many artists today were influenced by Jackson.

He'll be seen as a mixture of both. A brilliant performer who lead a messed up life.

I believe he'll be remembered more for the music.

Could not have been put in a better way.

I agree. Even without the molestation charges he was a weird cat. He had Neverland, Bubbles, etc. I do think that over time people will remember the molestation charges less and just remember him as odd/weird, but there's no way you can remember him just for music. It wasn't just about his music, it was the whole "Michael" experience.

Music for me.

Yes his music was GREAT, but his side show antics are comparable to Dennis Rodman in terms of off-court/stage antics taking away from on-court/stage production.
