Michael Jackson, by a wide, wide margin.

Everyone knows who Michael Jackson is; the vast majority of people wouldn't have a clue who Magnus Carlsen is... just like you wouldn't have a clue who the world Scrabble champion is.

Just like many people wouldn't even know that there is a world Chess champion!

Magnus is huge to us but most people wouldn't have a clue who he was.

Being dead hasn't seemed to hurt MJ's fame. Like many other people who are long dead, they are both better known and make more money than me or Carlesn.

Irving Berlin, Elvis Presley, John Lennon, David Bowie...
