michael jackson the entity was a result of so many PERFECT storms, not the least of which being that he was a genius level performer AND vocalist. the recording industry was different, people's investment and response to music was different, label commitment to their artists was different, the political/world scene was dramatically different, and ripe for a global star during Mike's ascension, and comparatively speaking - justin bieber is way behind the eight ball. MJ had a decade in the game by Justin Bieber's age.

it's just not really possible anymore, and that's excluding MJ's talent, which on it's own i believe is the easier portion of the MJ equation to duplicate. and that's saying something.
