We all know and love MC Hammer and we also know MC has great respect for Michael Jackson.
But what we love even more about MC Hammer is his honesty and frank speaking.
So when one of his fan stated on social media that MC Hammer’s choreographies are better than Michael Jackson’s, the rapper stepped in and put them in their place within minutes: “I learnt from MJ so I can’t be better. I can only be grateful”.

Triggered by the comment, MC went to some stories he had with Michael such as the “2 Legit 2 Quit” video:
“Michael called me and gave me the ultimate compliment concerning my dancing and command of the stage and then gave me his approval of the theme of ‘2 Legit 2 Quit’ which he said was funny and “not mean” in anyway. I granted him final edit and he could take out anything he wanted. Michael was so powerful he told me he was watching my dailies after each shoot. How ???? He was also staying in the suite beneath me while I was filming the video,which I knew and I would come back to the hotel and go in the bathroom and stomp on the floor and yell “Michael I know you’re down there” and crack him up !!! The good old days !!! Miss him.”
