Yeah most of the J5 hits had a bubblegum appeal to it. Its album tracks did have a more mature leading tho, some of it Mike was too young to sing about.
And also compared to the Five Stairsteps, they were definitely "bubblegum pop" in comparison.
The Jacksons, however, were the grown-up Jackson 5, lol.
I wholeheartedly agree. The Jackson 5ive were only never really "bubblegum pop"
alot of ya'll seem to not know alot about The Jackson 5 and Jacksons' output. Those albums are undeniable classics
