😆:)
Haha yeah same
Me too
same
NKOTB
Who came here just to check that MJ is on 1 place? Definitely me
Maja Carevic I legit got scared when the honorable mentions came and then they played MJ without showing that he was number 1.
Oh yea.
Maja Carevic 1. ❤️MJ !
me
Me Im just came here to check mj's place but happily he is 1st 😁
Bobby Brown was a BEAST on an American Music Awards show one year. He could dance his butt off while singing and you never heard him out of breath. I don't think he ever got enough recognition for his dance. He was amazing when he was younger.
Facts! He was one of my favorites of his era ahead of MC Hammer and all of them back then
He's good, for sure, but are you saying he's better than MJ?
@@cleliamattana6582 No, MJ is definitely the better of the two. However, BB is often overlooked as a really good dancer.
@@rhondaabugg305 oh k totally agree 100%, maybe you tagged the wrong person? 🙂
Never out of breath? Are u kidding me? Most of TV performances were lip syncs & when he was live, he would literally SPEAK sang lyrics or point the mic at the crowd?
Michael Jackson unbeatable. The best world entertainer of all times.
No one can touch MJ lol
Yes
1- MJ 2- Chris Brown 3- Usher 4- Bruno Mars 5- James Brown 6- Jason Derulo 7- Neyo 8- Justin Timberlake and the others...
I Concur
Facts they wildin
Prince not Ne-Yo.
50 cent made him self look like a moron saying this Chris Brown guy surpassed Michael Jackson.
Jeffrey Daniels should be number 2
Two types of dancer: 1: Michael Jackson 2: Other
Trueee💜💜
@Aroosh Kumar i love both, but our king must be number 1 forever
Lmao
I’m sorry, but Chris is a better dancer than MJ and that’s a fact.
@@AreYouJulius hahaha he's not even close... Even your chris idolized mj.. and that's a fact..
This list was full of it! The top 5, MJ, James Brown, Prince, Chris Breezy and Usher. IJS ❤
The wytest list ever!!!! Some of those artists should have never been in place, especially over Prince! Where was Fred Astaire and the Nicholas Brothers, since they’re doing throwbacks????
I agree
@user-wt6ov2mu1g all Elvis did was swing his narrow ass hips and toss his hair. Still there were many that even did that better.
Where was Jackie Wilson??
@@shelbyrebman7758I literally just asked that question
For me, Michael Jackson is still the best singer and dancer. He is incomparable. He performed with a touch of class and excellence.
I agree, I grew up watching Michael. He was a man ahead of his time. I miss him. 🥺
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
1. MJ 2. Chris Brown 3. Usher The rest...
4-de rulo 5-ne-yo
And Bruno
Sergio Maziano Perfect Order
For me number one is Breezy
Chris and Usher same level they are phrnomenals
lets all not forget that MICHAEL JOSEPH JACKSON is the first and only recording artist to be inducted into DANCE HALL OF FAME
YEBO YES. The ONE n ONLY MJ.
the only one singer who can compose great songs, sing live and dance. No one will be able to match him. Not another 100-200 years before we see another MJ
Yes
YES!!!!, but still some people like to say, "all he did was moonwalk and hip thrust " come on, you don't earn a spot into the hall of fame with just 2 moves. MJ was an amazing dancer/ performer way before he Moonwaked, he was doing tap, robotics, funk, popping in the 70s, in the Jackson variety show. This generation is unknown about MJ before Thriller and comes out with stupid claims and questions.
@@yvonnegordon9641 j
Nobody moved like MJ. Definitely in his own league. Spins. Moonwalks. In a class by himself
Jackie Wilson should have been on this list. Some of the Artist on your list received their inspiration from him.
💯!!
@@shelbyrebman7758So very True
Every one who came here to make sure MJ was in the right place like this comment # MJ forever
'DON'T SLEEP ON James he inspired MJ
😂😂😂 I skipped all the way to one
I laughed at how many people came here JUST FOR MJ. He was loved.
Same 😁❤️
Me too
For a split second I thought they were giving MJ an “honourable mention”. Nearly smashed my phone up 🤣🤣
Me too 😅
Same😂
I concur. 😂
Almost die !!!
i almost cracking my phone, untill the #1 showed up in the corner😂
MJ still gives me chills. ❤
Jeffrey Daniels and Bobby Brown should have gotten an honorable mention. How in the heck did Prince not make the top 5 is beyond me.
Agreed. Prince was a mistro in EVERYTHING.There was and is no other artist that could do what Prince could. He was a singular talent that we've not seen before or since. A very special human in the world of talent. Not to mention a pristine artist .
I fully agree!! Prince was an incredible dancer. Plus, he wore high heels like James Brown to accomplish his many slits, jumps and turns. Even Michael could NOT do what Prince and James Brown could do on a regular basis.
Totally agree! That Honorable Mention was BS!
Because this is her opinion, WTH are yall to tell her what her thoughts and opinions are she said wtf she said 🤷🏻♀️🤐🤡🤡🙄
Who came here just to see MJ as number one?? I did.
Lauren Elder me too 😂
Lauren Elder I did too
Lauren Elder me
me too 😂!! HE IS THE BEST EVER!!
Lauren Elder I sure did !!!!
Nobody will ever dance with the same power, passion, grace.... like Michael !
You know it! The one and only King of Pop!!!
R.I.P Michael Jackson the king of pop and country it’s always Michael no matter what happens. 🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻✨🌟👑👨🏽🎤🤴🏻🤴🏽😎😎🤩😎😎🗽🏍🎼🏆🏆🏆🏆 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘❤️❤️❤️❤️🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻
Yes,but go and watch prabhu deva from india and see every aspect of dancing like mj👍👍
No I do not agree with your selection.
Michael Jackson fans have to ruin musical experience for fans of newer musicians like Bruno Mars
No one can beat the THE KING OF POP .... YOU ROCK
MJ was incomparable... Still is. LEGENDARY
1. Michael Jackson 2.Chris Brown 3.Usher This is how the list should be. Convinced that white people made this list to even include Elvis.
I agree exactly with your list . I was thinking exactly this!
Same with Justin Bieber. That boy can maybe do a 2 step.
Swap out Chris Brown for Bruno Marz. Chris Brown is dead! 🤣
Correct
Not sure where the "white people fit" I'm white not sure if you meant white people should not be included.. That's neither here nor there , my main point of the comment was to say that even before I saw your comment as I was watching im like it should be Michael, Chris , Usher .. but maybe James Brown should be number 1 .. 🤔 And I think Prince should have been one of the top 10 not a mention
Surprised they didn’t mention the fact that Michael is the only singer to be inducted into the dance hall of fame! Seriously that says it all
Ooo i didnt know that before
Ikr
And Fred Astaire
...AND MJ danced effortlessly in front of audiences and entertained the entire world for 40 consecutive years (1969-2009). That doesn't even include the singing and dancing he was already doing BEFORE The Jackson 5 got signed to Motown in 1969.
Guess you never heard of Sammy Davis Jr who received the first lifetime achievement award in the dance hall of fame.
One person they forgot was prince ❤
MJ, always #1 in my heart! Much love and respect! I miss you! I can't imagine what heights you would of reached. RIP. ❤❤❤
There is no way Beiber can dance better than Derulo...
derek lumumba Really?! When I watch Justin Bieber’s music videos, I ALAWYS sing and dance along!
@@graciep4646 yes Beiber can dance..., but not better than Derulo
@@graciep4646 justin bieber sucks as a dancer, is not a dancer n how is he even better than Derulo
Yes..hard to believe..Derulo is naturally a better dancer fo sho
He shouldn't even be on the list. Same with Elvis. Both are terrible dancers
How the heck did Justin Beiber make this list???
cuz he can dance very good
Ikr
yeah, he doesn't know how to dance
JB is actually a good dancer but Watchmojo showed shitty old clips of him instead. JB should of been number 10 or honorable mention instead.
He's actually really good but then there some not amazing moments but theses clips are mostly old like if you see the where are u now dance it's awesome
MJ hands down - he's definitely the "Smooth Criminal" & the "Thriller" the "One in a Million". 🎉😊
Good to see MJ # 1! 💕 All my favourites!
I came here to check if Michael Jackson is the #1 coz if not I will report this video ✌️🥰
Anns' Kie 😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Me too... yeeeesssss
And Janet Jackson is number 1 in top female singers who dance, totally true
Bruh🤣🤣
ME too she almost had me
My list 1) Michael Jackson 2) James Brown 3) Usher/Chris brown 4) Bruno mars
Wheres prince
@@mammabear1881 5
Yessss
Same
Ginuwine should have been in that top ten.
I must admit..it has to be Michael Jackson. From beginning to the end..he was the best and will be surely missed.
You have Michael in the right spot! Love the pics! Thank you!
Before even clicking, I just knew Michael Jackson would be number 1 :D
Me too.
King things
Everyone knows, duh :D
Michael Jackson Is A Legend Moonwalker Who Walked The Earth
True but jeffrey from shalamar taught him
I adored MJ. To me he’s the best entertainer of all time.
All these performers are great , but never ever will anyone ever reach the perfection of dance than Michael Jackson. He will always be the KING. RIP.
James brown
NOBODY COMPARES TO MICHAEL JACKSON
Bety luz Daga huaman without james brown you wouldn’t have the michael jackson we had
Most definitely!!!
um actually I'm the one that can dance the fastest just like michael but he can dance the same way that i can but I'm not him not in that way but i'm just being myself it's because me is very talented it's because my family and his family that comes from a very long line of my family history and his family history though so
Everybody knows who is number One. The King
Yeah
Bruno!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wait I FORGOT MJ FROM THE CHICAGO BULLS Oh wait the other MJ
@@romareddington6945 stop spam this shit you media-ass-kisser
@@romareddington6945 piece of shit. You hater.
I knew it too
Loved all MJ did, particularly the cover he did on tribute to John Lennon, song Come Together. Amazing
Back in the day MICHAEL JACKSON threatened to sue MTV for refusing to play his 15 minute long THRILLER mv. They claimed to be New Wave/Rock station and he didn't fit their target audience. The channel ended up playing it every hour on the hour for weeks! And yes I learned and still know all of the choreography! When I was young my Mother took me and my two sisters to see THE JACKSON 5 at the #CircleStarTheater in San Carlos, CA(it's been gone for decades now)the venue had a stage that slowly revolved during a performance. Their big hit was #DancingMachine at that time. I'll never forget that show for as long as I live! My one and only time seeing MJ on stage.
I came here to see if Michael's on the first place, and yesss he is! Without a doubt: Michael Joseph Jackson was | is | and forever will be the King of Pop. His dance moves are on point! LEGENDARY.
yes. moonwalker for life
forever and EVER!!!!!
Akina Jackson If he wasn't, I would've lost my shit
Akina Jackson YASSSSSSS
So sad.. for all his fame and all... he was lonely and betrayed most of the time... RIP! We need more talents like him who truly care for the world.. Love him forever...
If Michael Jackson wasn’t number 1 on this list, I would’ve sued this channel, but y’all are smart so I wont
What is justin bieber doing here and he stole and he stole black people's dance moves 😑
IKR
@@parismahone88 ikr Omarion, T-Pain and Ne-Yo could've got a spot
Me too
Same😂😂
The arts of singing and dancing are the two arts that musics needs to flows along with it, to extends it's area that could be so effective to all living beings. And dancing is really effective to show the greatness of music and it's songs. None could go differently to get to their own roof-tops. Love you all.. ♥♥♥♥♥
The best in wold, always and forever, our king MJ❤
im here just to see Michael is number one!!! ohh yeah!! MJFAM where u at??
I'm here
Here!! 😊❤️
Here
Here
👋👋
1- MJs definitely where he should be. Number 1 as always. 2- WTF? Elvis can't dance. And his placed higher the Bruno Mars and Chris Brown.
Prapon Haque THANK YOU I SAID THE SAME THING!
My statement as well. Shaking your leg is not dancing!
Prapon Haque very true but if there was no Elvis there would be no Bruno Mars.
@@Yahna.The.Artist that's not the point of discussion
I beg to differ, all Elvis did was move his hips, Fred Astaire and Gene Kelley paved the way for dancers!
Great singers and great dancers they are so professional!🤗
MJ grabbed the crown, there came so many and still are coming, no doubt they all are talented at their place, but MJ was something beyond this field, the only one, totally unmatchable incomparable.
Everyone got their moves from James Brown, Michael Jackson & Jackie Wilson
Finally, someone that knows what the hell they are talking about!
So true
Así es!!!
Yeah Jackie Wilson should have been up there✌
100% correct
There is something special about how MJ carries himself when he performa, his swag is so natural.
✨👌💯
👍 yes
I would even go as far as to say dancing was vital to him. He needed to dance just as much as he needed to breathe. Even his mother said he learned to dance before he learned how to walk!
@@user-vc3cr8bm3r I'm no MJ , not even his little pinkie, but I totally get it. When I hear music, my body NEEDS to dance. Badly? Yes :) But I have to move and try to learn movements and all. Since I was probably 5 or 6. Some people are truly like this. Then you have a kid like MJ like this, and the legend is born!
No one will ever top Michael ❤
“I agree with no.1, but everyone else in wrong order. “ ALL OUTSTANDING PERFORMERS.
Everyone clicked on the video just to check or Michael Jackson was on a deserved number #1 spot ;D And ofcourse he was
yeah,I miss him R.I.P. Michael Jackson(our king of pop)😢😢❤❤❤
that's true
Yeah, I did it
True
+Arya Kk omg so true! I skipt everybody haha my king is nr1 duh
How on earth did Bieber make this list but not Prince??? Girl bye!
mick jagger and elvis presley??? 😫 mc hammer definitely should have made that list, and been near the top!!!
Exactly ! Prince was a beast
Research bout him you'll see for yourself hater. He's the best male performer today.
@Shanna Lillston That's YOUR opinion! Prince has been doing it for decades! He's set trends, inspired generations, made several hits for himself and others! He can also play every instrument under the sun and with excellence! Prince is an icon, legend, showstopper and institution. Seeing the weak comparison between listing Bieber over Prince is not 'hating', its common sense and borderline insane! There's NO COMPARISON!
Right. Like WHOOO MADE THIS LOST. They need to do their research
YESSSSSS BUT I WAS DISAPPOINTED THAT PRINCE ONLY GOT HONORABLE MENTION- REALLY THOUGH??😊
I think that Prince should take Elvis's place. Just never thought that his gyrations were sexy.
Ladies and Gentleman, the one and only, Mr. Michael Jackson!!! He will always be the best in live vocals, dancing and humanitarian work 💖💖💖
Preach!
Applehead MJ Jackson You bet your ass he is!
jarko salb in your fantasies
Miangel Hubbard yeah Justin Bieber is ridiculous! He entitled himself as the new King of Pop, how dare he?!
ikr who does he think he is . nobody id better than MJ and no one ever will be
If Michael Jackson is number one, the list is correct. period
You right
Fuck off
Abiyyu Shah Kautsar kingofpop
Darling , that'S for sure
ya can dance and ruin kid's lives with the best of em...
I went to one of his concerts once. I've been to other megastars' concerts since then but no one even comes close.
Jeffrey Daniels from Shalamar was actually the first one who created 'The Moon Walk' it's just that MJ took it and performed it on a 25 years of Motown show or something back in the 80s. So HE should definitely have a mention!
Actually, Michael Jackson said that he first saw the movement on the streets, the kids break dancing and "floating." There were others before, but MJ perfected it and made it his own.
I don't really care about the ranking, as long as the MJ himself tops it. Yes, he simply has no equal.
Joko Santoso Prince was just as bad and innovative. Michael did not create any signature moves... he did however perfect them and put his own ‘flavor’ on them thus catapulting them to another level. This includes the ‘Moonwalk’ ... which originally came from a member of group Shalamar when he danced as a ‘Soul Train’ dancer. MJ was clever to jack and buy things his entire career.💯💯💯
@@mynitagoodson3914 The lean was his own move. Stop writing bullshit. There is a whole video showing all the moves that he created.
Mynita Goodson He invented his own dance style, that's why today the dance world is enormously inspired by MJ, he's a king
I came straight to the comments to say this
Michael Jackson is always the best .
Michael Jackson Will Always Be The Number One Male Dancer, His Moves Were Like No Other. Long Live The King
Not just none other he is the God of dancing
🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺
Elvis is the King.
Go check out the Nicolas Brothers and tell me if you still feel the same way...
@@psethekahala645 no MJ Is the king!
I seriously was thinking MJ wasn’t on this list. I was about to lose it. 😂😂😂
Yesss Yesss you are spot on 💯up in here luv ❤️ 😍 it !!!
MJ was imo just as talented a singer as he was a dancer. It's insane how talented he was. He also wrote a lot of his own songs. He was incredibly multi-talented.
He was the best!!!!!
Michael wrote a lot of his own songs ? You sure about that ?
@@byronmcintyre7685 he wrote most of his biggest hits, but he did have help with other co-writers just like many other artists have
He could also draw very well.
He was a singer, dancer, entertainer, he wrote songs, produced them, beatbox the music and rhythm, he wrote books, painted as well, etc
MJ is always at the top. Never changes.
That will Never change!! Long cherish the 👑 - who do u think influences most everyone on this list!!! ❤️🇨🇦💕
The God of Pop and Dance floor 🙏🙏👑👑

The way that everyone here is literally inspired by Michael jackson is crazy just to let you know how MJ was literally a legend is he literally the artist for everyone life
1. MJ 2. Chris Brown 3. Usher 4. Ne-Yo 5. Jason Derulo
Same here
Agreed
Damn agreed.
no one give a crap bout no elvis

MJ is definitely the best as the saying goes "often imitated never duplicated" nobody will ever be better than MJ
Scott cheeers
agreed
I disagree
I say this all the time & I mean Never 👎… Mj was the Greatest that ever done it !!! We love & Miss U Micheal’ ‘MJ ‘ 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️❤️❤️
Bruno Mars: “You don’t choose to watch, you have to watch.” Have to agree - I don’t have him in any playlist, but I will always stop to watch. As for Usher, he was the first star I ever felt like I was robbing the cradle for having a crush on. I think I’m only a few years older than him, but he blew it out of the water as a mid-teen after I’d already graduated high school.
i had to make sure that mike was on here ;)
MJ is the greatest entertainer EVER and there's no doubt about it...there will never be another like him. He was ahead of his time for sure.
He learned from James Brown
@@tawandabarnes272 Study the greats and become greater - Michael Jackson
This world will never see another Michael Jackson.. he won every award and broke every record. Not only a great performer but he was a humanitarian.. he really cared about people.. I don't care what anyone says, he would never hurt a child.. and that scandal is what ate him up and killed him.. Michael will always the artist of all time..
Yeah I came here to check if my king is No 1, and I just subscribed. King of Pop remains undisputed and never challenged, at least not in this lifetime.
Truly. This is one of the most honest. And talented. Judgement. Blessing. To you. Always.
MJ's moves are the ones who inspire A LOT of dance moves.
And James Brown inspired his!

Yea
Me also
Duhh everyone😎
NOBODY COMPARES TO MICHAEL JACKSON
Micheal Jackson is on the right spot. #1 . Thumbs up If you agree with me that there is no modern dance steps without MJ moves in it. Long live the king of pop. His legacy lives on
I almost had a heart attack when you directly showed his video dancing instead of announcing MJ as first place. For a moment, I thought you put him in the honorable mentions... 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Only came to make sure Michael was on this list and #1.
like if you came to make sure Chris breezy was on here
Same
Same
MJ has being such a prolific dancer and sure inspired lot of upcoming artist. But weather he is a best male dancer is subjective. If u ask me ill say that I like watching Usher and CB dance more then MJ by a mile.
ikr
I watched just to see Michael Jackson be first and why would'nt he be he is THE KING OF POP.
Alivia Marie The king of music!
Class by himself!!! MJ bless
Girl me too
Prince should have been number two . And your number one pick is spot on 👍🏅
Amazing dancers. ❤❤❤❤
I came here to see Michael xd
1-Michael Jackson 👑 RIP 2-Chris Brown 3-Usher
_Eli4s _ yasss
Bruno mars is better than Chris brown
Peter Genesoffo Maybe at singing, but Chris is miles ahead in dancing
Agreed!
_Eli4s _ I totally agree
Prince is placed in honourable mention? Whaaaaaat! I knew MJ would be first before watching the video till the end...and Usher at second ain't no surprise.
Michael Jackson was a music and dance God!! No other before him and no other after him!!!
Sorry, but Prince deserves A LOT MORE than honorable mention... But MJ is the undisputed Legend.
😊
Yeah, that was crazy!
Oh yeah, for sure. Should be #2
I just opened this video because I already knew that MJ's gonna be at #1, otherwise i would have not opened it. Luv U MJ ❤👑
Govind Mahajan same 😂😂😂
MJ,Bruno M,Chris Brown &Usher
The one and only Michael Jackson, at no. 1 where he belongs. The likes of usher, timblelake, beiber, Chris brown and more were inspired by the King, but could never reach his standard, Michael was born dancing, and we thank him for showing us how to feel the rythum of music, you can dance but he breathed it. We love you Michael and you are missed x🙏
I just came to see that Michael was first, haha! He literally inspired Jason Derulo, Bruno Mars, Justin Bieber, Usher, Neyo, Justin Timberlake and drew inspiration from James Brown. What king!!!!
@Trinity White right 😭😭😭
Exactly
Had to make sure MJ was #1 on the list😂😂
❤❤❤❤ for thy way is order my steps.
the curve is sharp at the end...MIke stands alone....
Michael just puts all his passion into dancing. His moves are so sharp it’s incredible.
Why he's the GOAT and always will be.
Yeah!
Yes
I can't believe they left out Prince, He's number one when it comes to dancing,,,,
@@i24ktgold I think it goes to MJ because he does both choreographed and freestyle dancing exceptionally well. Prince is more of a James Brown type dancer.
Even b4 this video ends I knew Michael will be #1 Rip legend
I clicked to make sure Michael was still in his spot and no slide games. But I love the line up. Good job. I see people saying Prince. I wasn’t a Prince fan only knew 2 songs and 2 choreography from Purple Rain but ok
10:35 omg! 🎉🤩
There will never be anyone better than MJ. He will always be the KING OF POP. He will always be THE BEST DANCER!!!!! He set the bar and nobody has ever reached it.
I really doubt he'll forever be the best. nobody stays the best forever.
I completely agree Melanie. Maybe one of these days someone will top Michael. But it may take another 50 years or so.
The way MJ transmitted emotions through his body is unmatched for me . he didnt even need to do complex moves , just simple moves , or just the way he walked on stage was a dance move by itself . This guy could move his body like nobody else . 35 years after Thriller , there are many many extraordinary dancers , with more complex moves , but i am yet to see one that make a whole crowd lighten up like they were watching magic experience by the way they move . The way MJ transmitted emotions through his body was magic .
I agree. He could stand on stage without moving 1 muscle and fans went crazy. There was a presence about him that no one else will ever have.
Vickie Clark Pure charisma .That is what some of these great dancers lack in my opinion .
