Kanye West turns 40 today, and few artists have achieved as much as he has by that age. Over the past few years, Kanye has taken to comparing himself to some of the most lofty figures modern artistic history. Walt Disney and Steve Jobs famously come to mind, but we decided to compare him to someone that we probably shouldn’t have (just as Kanye would probably prefer it): The one and only King of Pop, Michael Jackson.

What do y’all think, is this blasphemy or should Kanye get some credit for changing pop music throughout his career?
