Please answer this (and everybody)

Do you find Michael Jackson difficult to understand? If yes, why? His song Billie Jean is very difficult to follow. Madonna is not that difficult. Please tell me why and how can I understand Michael more easily?

Thanks and bye

I don't have any trouble understanding Michael Jackson's language, but I have a lot of trouble understanding him.

I don't listen to Madonna, but when I've heard her, she has always used very clear articulation, like that of an announcer. Michael Jackson's pronunciation is more colloquial, so he does a lot more linking between words and uses some common contractions that they might not have taught you in English classes.
