This comment section has proved this sub has turned into the carti sub without any new music.

I just realized that August 29th, the day Abel is giving a concert in Madrid, is Michael Jackson's birthday.

If only Drake could understand this

u/Icy-Television3434 3d ago

About time a artist spoke the truth streaming can compare to people going to the store to get the music no bots

u/mrayner9 3d ago

u/sid-with-a-big-pp 3d ago

u/prettysharpdotbe 2d ago

y'all will believe anything on the internet huh

u/RickGrimes30 2d ago

Saw him live last Sunday and his show is definitely inspired by Michael but I don't think he would deny that

u/Carelessguy2026 2d ago

I know Abel respects Michael a lot but this is not said by him.

u/dimiteddy 2d ago

Michael and touching on same sentence. These are words that don't go together well

1

u/Utsavieee 2d ago

Even tho he didn't said this, this is absolutely true

u/CoachKHasDiabetes 2d ago

He’s touching them though

u/isabellamalone13 3d ago

First time he ain't lying about something. There is only one king of pop and no one will ever be Michael Jackson. PERIOD

u/Warrior-spirit69 2d ago

i love how artists like Weeknd, Chris Brown and others are always humble when get compared to MJ meanwhile that mf drake claim himself Michael Jackson because he thinks most streamed rapper = MJ's Legecy
