Michael Jackson’s son, Prince Jackson, is coming to his father’s defense after being questioned about what he made of Rolling Stone recently crowning British singer Harry Styles the new “King of Pop.” 

The 25-year-old appeared on “Good Morning Britain” on Friday where he was asked to share his thoughts on the title being passed down to the “Watermelon Sugar” hitmaker.

But in his response, Prince, while still being respectful with his answer, said that his dad will always carry the moniker King of Pop and that the title which MJ rightfully earned himself could never be taken away from him. After calling Harry an “incredible artist,” Prince explained, “He’s got his own genre and he’s definitely an amazing artist. But, the “King of Pop” was a moniker that really my dad earned.”

He continued to add that there’s been a huge shift in music where access to popularity and fame wasn’t anywhere near as easily obtainable as it is today, and with countless other social factors that have to be taken into consideration when making such a statement, Prince says Michael will always be the King of Pop. “And it’s not something that you can ever take away,” he said, “because we’ve just evolved so much as a society that those same factors will never be the same.”
