No...I was responding more to folks saying he's going to be on a milk carton five years from now...No one knows what will happen in that regard...

Now, it is very unlikely he will be on MJ level (the eras are totally different...people sold more albums and the Internet now eats everything up)...

But my point is Bieber is not a talentless hack.....He just makes music I don't listen to....
