But when it comes to artistic talent, Stevie Wonder and Prince, two talented artists who are still alive, are more talented than Lennon.
When Steve Wanda was born, he lost his sight because of premature birth. He learned to play the harmonica at the age of 4, began to learn the piano at the age of 5, and played more than 1 instruments at the age of 11. He also had a good voice. In 1963, at the age of 13, he won the number one single for three weeks with a song "Figertips", which shocked the whole music world.
In his singing career for more than 2 years, he has won many enviable awards with his natural talent, including 17 Grammy Awards and 1 Oscar Award for Best Movie Song.
prince was the most famous pop musician in the 198s, along with Stevie Wonder and Michael Jackson. Prince is a truly versatile artist, a real musical genius and all-rounder in music. He is proficient in playing guitar, bass, keyboard and drums, and he can also use many other popular instruments, so that some people say that he can become a band by himself. In the studio, he can record an entire album by himself. In addition, Prince's versatility is also reflected in his grasp of different Chinese music styles. He has successively integrated Funk, folk songs, pop music, dance music, rock music and even hard rock music, and these works have been highly praised by all walks of life almost without exception. Moreover, Prince's ability to create and sing is excellent. Most of his music works are written by himself. He often writes singles for many other famous pop stars, and Prince's ability to perform with his body has become an insurmountable peak for young musicians together with Michael Jackson. Prince's physical expression and movements are very rich.
It's just that these two talented artists didn't die young. If they also died young, their influence should be as good as Lennon's. However, there is still a gap to reach Jackson's global influence (mainly in dancing). Elvis Presley mainly occupies the light of a white man, and his artistic talent is far less than Jackson's.
Jackson's influence is unparalleled and global (not only in Europe and America), but also in many Asian countries. In the eyes of European and American countries, Elvis Presley, Jackson and the Beatles are the same, but in some Asian countries, many people simply don't know the Beatles and Elvis Presley.
