I don't think anyone is going to debate that MJ hired the best choreographers, dancers, and producers that money could buy. So what, though? There are some people who care about that and others who do not. Personally, I go to concerts for the musicians, not to watch a dance troupe.
The rest is just hyperbole. Energy, spectacle, and awe? Iggy Pop and The Stooges, Pink Floyd, The Who, Rage Against The Machine, Jimi Hendrix, Bruce Springsteen, and others have all brought those criteria in spades--and Prince himself is widely considered one of the best live acts of all time.

Unfortunately not many people saw him perform live since he didn't tour much and mostly played smaller venues. Also as far as I know he never toured overseas. MJ had three massive world tours and probably could have done a couple more if he really wanted to.

MJ's levels of fame/infamy are very uncanny, I mean has anyone ever been more famous than him? I mean there are a few that probably came close, Madonna, Elvis, Princess Diana, Marilyn Monroe, The Beatles perhaps?
