Didn’t Powerline have any George Michael or Boy George traits Or was that just me? I could tell he had a lot of Prince in him as well as Michael Jackson

Dunno why but Powerline always seemed androgynous to me, like the good ol' Glam Rockstars.

I see Michael, Prince, and Bobby Brown in Powerline.

A little over 20 years later and after the tragic death of Prince Rogers Nelson, I am reminded of how much joy this film brought in our household. Tevin Campbell, the actor that voiced Powerline worked with Prince in the film Under the Cherry Moon. Also the back-up singer Rosie Gaines who sings the harmonies and back-up in the Goofy Movie's show-stopper, "I-2-I" also performed extensively with Prince. So, I like to believe that the role is an homage to His Royal Badness, Prince.

The real singer is actually Tevin Campbell.

I always thought it was more of a Prince, Michael, & Bobby Brown mixture

sonicallyhe has a Prince aestheticbut his celebrity as portrayed in the movie is definitely more Michael Jacksonalong with the dance moves
Even the most primitive society has an innate respect for the insane.

^^ I agree, he was definetely a combo of Prince, MJ & MC Hammer with that Devo outfit to boot.
"I am the ultimate badass, you do not wanna *beep* wit' me!" Hudson in Aliens.

Yeah I also thought it had some Prince in there but mostly Michael Jackson. Even the main song he sings has very similar lyrics and themes with MJ songs like "Leave me alone".

Yes he's MJ, Prince and MC Hammer all rolled into one including Devo (I'm such an 80's kid and 90's teen with my knowledge).

Vocal-wise = Michael Jackson , Guitar-wise = Prince , Dance-wise= M.C.Hammer.
Powerline's costume , on the other hand , is totally stolen from DEVO!
And by-the-by kidsGoofy , Max , Powerline , etc are DOGS! ( So , unless in your day-to-day activities you call your dog "African-American"that particular point is MOOT! )

So ironic lol.

FYI (according to Wikipedia):
The songs "I 2 I" and "Stand Out" were performed by R&B singer Tevin Campbell, and co-written by Prince

i agree!

Fusion of PRince and MJ.

To me its seems as though Powerline is an infusion of Michael Jackson, Prince, MC Hammer,

He came off as more sexual than MJ, so in that way I think more like Prince. Then again his overall look and dance moves (the backward dancing was very moonwalk) seemed more MJ esque.

Yeah i think everyone see's it, unless your from a country who dont know him LOL but he is kind of cool, unlike Michael Jackson!
Sorry Michael Jackson lovers! x

I actually think his songs sound more like Prince, in the car the guitar riffs sound like something Prince would play, but in the movie he doesn't play the guitar. I conclude he is a perfect mix of Michael and Prince.

I don't think you could describe this film as racist. After all, the main characters are all dogs!
And yes, I thought of Michael Jackson when I first heard Powerline.

Actually he sounded like Tevin Campbell to me. No, really I never thought of comparing him to anyone. I just knew it was Tevin, because of his great voice so that was it. I guess the character is like both of them a little, and yeah Hammer too.

a singer with the voice of michael jackson, the appearance of mc hammer, and the lyrics of prince. aka the perfect man.

I agree. Sometimes he sounds like Prince, and sometimes he sounds like Michael. Besides, I think "I2I" sounds more like something Prince would sing.
